Hillary really stepped in it today, when she was ranting about how the government should confiscate oil company profits to invest in alternative energy sources (I guess she doesn't own any Exxon stock). That one will will require a bit or revising and extending. And here I thought her handlers had her totally trained. There is still work to do.
GOP electoral history doesn't back you up. Lose the socons and you lose the White House.
I'll keep that in mind. Thanks!
Economics is just so boring. It is much more interesting to discuss just who is, and who is not, a latent homosexual. Stop being a bore!
I should hope so; it had to be seen to be believed.
BTW, did you realize that the Contract with America wasn't about SOCIAL CONSERVATISM?
..I can't remember the exact month, but I remember all the attention was on Mario Cuomo--Clinton wasn't even on the radar...
You are all obsessed with a man dressing in drag to raise money to support the survivors of 911. You keep telling us how Red America won't tolerate a man in a dress at a gay function. Do you honestly believe they hate that much? I don't. If you're not making them out to be hate-filled homophobes, then what do you call it? Your single argument is that they can't/won't tolerate a man in a dress at a gay function. No reference to what the function is. Even the left won't touch that one.
You'd think a crack political operative would know that, wouldn't you?
ROTFLOL!
Is it just me, or has anybody else noticed that there is a group here now trying desperately to split the conservatives even further, by now coming up with yet another wing, the Social Conservatives, aka SoCons?
In February of 1999 Bush was leading with 39%, Elizabeth Dole was at 25% and McCain was at 4%.
Haaaate. Haaaate.
That's Clintonista speak.
It's not about hate, it's about a perception of a lack of gravitas, coupled with a rather extreme liberal social viewpoint on the part of Rudy. If Rudy was anti-abortion and not so gung-ho on gay rights issues, I really don't think people would care that much.
Instead, it will just drive that message home. And ya'll are deluded if you think it won't be a factor. The Dems WILL use this against him and beat him up with it if he wins the nomination.
The Dems, especially Hillary, who is no genius, is far smarter than you are about political smear tactics.
I have no idea where you live but I live in a college town and have for ten years. My son was in a fraternity and my daughter in a sorority -- probably have seen it all and what I haven't seen I have heard about. You obviously haven't been around much or you wouldn't think this is the worst thing that could have happened.
People that I know think it is funny that Rudy is so down to earth and not afraid to dress up like a woman for charity because he doesn't doubt his own masculinity. Shame on us for not being shocked! (sarcasm)
BTW, one of the former candidates for Miss THS is now a State Senator, plans to run for Congress, and may someday run for President. I guess I better tell him he cannot run. BTW, they raised $9700+ to help one of their teammates that needed surgery that year.
Hardly, given Hunter's stance on amnesty.
Oh, I know; I could hardly believe my ears when she said it; she's gonna have to come out yet again and explain "what she really meant to say" to get that monkey off her back.
It won't be long before she'll have as many people out explaining what she MEANT to say as Alan Keyes does!
College towns are not representative of small-town America.
And, once again, couple images of Rudy in drag with his well-know far-left social positions on abortion and gay rights, and it will be toxic for him.
Gee, I guess that's why we've never seen political attacks on YouTube.
Oops, we have. So just what in the heck are you blabbering about?
