But Pirro WILL bloody Hillary. :-)
dont dems do the same thing in conservative states?
I dont see Howard Dean clones running in southern states.
it is called pragmatism..
many here get confused between the conservative movement and the GOP. One is a philosphical movement the other a party. The job of a party is to win.
Arnold Schwarzenegger had a better chance of winning. I knew and posted that since day one, right after he announced it on the Jay Leno show. You and I even predicted he would reach around 50% of the votes by the time the election was over. He took 48% of the vote.
This case is different. You have the DA-wife of a convicted felon who knew the ongoings of her husband despite of whatever she says. Stuff about that will surface - not now, because it's early, but in due time. By the time all these shenanigans are exposed, Hillary will be riding high.
Don't you think I want Hillary to lose and get the hell out of NY, or at least get bloodied and impoverished? But with Pirro, the odds for this to happen are slim in my book.
You know, I've never underestimated the power of the media and their ability to influence people. If they can scare people with a stroke of the pen by the mere mention of the name Nixon as in: Ed Cox is the son-in-law of Nixon –just for marrying Tricia Nixon 3 years prior to Nixon's resignation and nothing to do with Watergate- imagine how much they would influence the sheeple when they start reporting on Pirro's husband convicted for tax evasion and doing time in jail for 17 out of 29 months, and his mob connections with his DA-wife by his side?
For WIW I found a link about Pataki supporting Cox. I don't give it much credit now since I've found Pataki's people are behind Pirro, but anyway here it is:
“He has the backing of Pataki and many other influential people both Republican and Democrat.
If the New York GOP doesn't get this settled very early in the process, I predict that a long, drawn-out primary battle is going to leave EITHER candidate pretty much bankrupt by the time the general election rolls around.
Pirro doesn't have the state's conservative vote because she's too liberal and I doubt she'll get it, but even if she gets it, we'll still lose for the reasons I mentioned above. It's just bloody awful!
Mebbe I'll move to Wyoming or something. LOL.
That's the new country version of that Marc Cohn song, isn't it? I heard it on the radio a couple of weeks ago -- it sounds pretty good!
I found a few George Straits, but I don't think they were all that good.
Hmm . . . Which songs were they? I'll tell you if I like them.
By the time you reply this post I'll be sleeping LOL, so I'll just leave you with this one. Nighty night.
Be good now.
Sweet dreams!
