I'M LOVING THIS!!!!!!! Obama must be crying like a baby now. Hey the whole Democratic Party is shaking now. This will be a NATIONAL DEBATE. Lets Get Alan some support, what is his web site and contact info?


The only problem Keyes will have with Obamamyourmamasama is deciding which round he will knock him out in.

Not surprising to see certain liberal (R)'s show up on this thread trying to spread doom and gloom about Keyes.

I've coined a new term for certain posters to this thread. if it doesn't apply then they need not respond. If it does, then expect them to respond in full force. The term is Obama's cheerleaders.

Howlin, this has nothing to do with Keyes moving to Illinois anymore than all the liberals' attacks on President Bush. You're attacking Alan Keyes because he made the mistake of getting up this morning, flying to Illinois and being chosen by the State Republican Party. The only way Alan Keyes could stop being criticized by you is if he ceased to exist. Well, I will not defend what everyone has said, I stand by what I said. I put his quote in context which is not something you or anyone else did.

And I would say that no matter what you would rail on Keyes because you're a Keyes-hater, and just like Bush-hater, irrational hatred drives you to stay up all night attacking the object of your contempt.

you continue to insult our intelligence by telling us WE are too stupid to understand what we heard him say.

Gee. What are you calling me? What are you calling vast majority of the people at that CPAC who were on their feet in uproarious applause?

I am not calling the people who disagree with me stupid, Howlin. I'm calling them wrong. Ever been wrong before? I sure have. Ask my wife. She'll gladly tell you.

There is no shame in being wrong from time to time. No one expects you to be perfect, and no one expects you to see eye to eye with us in every situation. What we generally DO expect, from the people we elect and are asked constantly to support, is for the people who claim to be the standard bearer of a party that is based on certain things to actually stand up for those things.

That requirement is completely separate from YOU, Howlin, as a person. It is an honest debate about how to best utilize our energies and resources. It doesn't have to be any more complicated than that.

The term is Obama's cheerleaders.

I haven't seen one single person on this thread cheerleading for Obama. Could you please point me to an example of it? All I've seen is people acknowledging the political climate in Illinois, and Obama's talent and popularity.

Nobody said they were on his side, that I saw. Will you help me out?

The rules have changed, take what the ref gives or get crushed on the field. Didn't you ever play sports. If the ref allows holding you hold, if the ref allows goal tending you goal tend, if the ump counts an outside pitch a strike -

YOU SWING OR YOU STRIKE OUT.

And yes,I'll ask people to vote for Keyes,IF he accepts the crown,but I know that he has NO chance of winning;not a one

God bless you, nopardons. If he runs, I think he could use your help! The GOP cannot afford to lose this seat. It's at least worth putting up a fight for.

Alan Keyes in 2000: "I deeply resent the destruction of federalism represented by Hillary Clinton's willingness go into a state she doesn't even live in and pretend to represent people there, so I certainly wouldn't imitate it."

Principled conservative, huh?

If Keyes accepts this nomination, it will appear that his principles aren't quite as bedrock as he & others would have us believe. Personally I was opposed to carpetbagging when Hillary did it, and I think it would be hypocritical to support it now.

I agree that Obama needs opposition, it's just hard to believe there was no one credible in the entire state.

That said, it's going to be an interesting race...I'm looking forward to watching!
