I could see Hilary throwing her support behind Obama, though that would still taint Obama in the eyes of the right-wing jihadists.

Here in Utah, Romney is considered the Great White Hope, unsurprisingly. Is his Mormonism an issue in the rest of the country?

To be honest, I could support McCain. I'd like Gore, now that I hear him without the clutter, but if worst came to worst, I could deal with McCain.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Polls like this are one reason people are getting serious about Hillary. I don't think the story is how much people hate her anymore, and I'm certain that she and her advisors do not consider her a stalking horse. She is serious.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

To be honest, I could support McCain.

Not the way he's been sucking cock on the far right in the last couple years. No fucking way. He'd have to put a fairly conservative member on the Supreme Court during his term. Also, he wants to add more troops in Iraq. I don't think that's going to work.

Our wings are not tired.

What I don't get is why someone as smart as Hilary seems to be thinks that she can. I keep hoping it will turn out that her and Bill are playing rope-a-dope with the Republicans

I certainly do not have the power urge that one would need to be president, so I can't begin to guess Hillary's mind. IF I were Hillary it would look a lot better to me to stay in the nice cushy job of Senator from New York for a good many years to come. In my mind you would have to be stark raving mad to want to go through the process of campaigning for president. But again, so not that personality type.

Here in Utah, Romney is considered the Great White Hope, unsurprisingly. Is his Mormonism an issue in the rest of the country?

In Massachusetts, it's mainly his having ran as a moderate and then took a hard right after his attempt to defribulate the MA Republican Party euthanized it instead that's the issue. The Dems need to throw flip-flopper at him as much as the Repubs did at Kerry.

Possibly the level of support evens out the level of hate I hear most often.

Always Anti-fascist!

Too bad we can't mix all their best traits in a blender. Cause I like Obama's charisma, but there are lots of reasons I'm not sure he can Go All The Way. I actually like HRC, but she is a lightning rod with too much...stuff.(But I would be kind of childishly stoked by an XX POTUS) Gore: Would trust with my country, but is still hard to get excited about/by. Edwards: I like the guy and his fighting for poverty, but Cheney did make him look like a schmuck. But I've heard him speak and he is not.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I'd like Gore/Obama. Or Obama/Some Experienced White Guy to Balance the Ticket.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
