Let alone what the OB pays for malpractice insurance ... Sheesh ... in some states it's more than what most folks pay for their first house.
I've been registered as an Independant for 40yrs. I was going to vote for Wallace in 72 until he got shot. I voted for a Dem for NYC mayor in 67 to try and stop Lindsey from his second term. The Rep in that election had no chance. As I admitted to earlier, I voted for Perot in 92. At that time I was voting my pocketbook and was fed up with both parties. Every other time I've voted Republican.
Put me into whatever pigeon hole you want and call me what you will.
yeah
If I had confidence that elections and "the American
process" worked, then I would be more hopeful. But...
I do not believe it matters that reasonable conservatives
are in the majority. California regularly overturns
the will of the people.
Rush... we ARE trying to defeat liberalism. But our
weapons are no match for theirs. They are liars, invaders
and they are anti-humanity.
Hi. Whats this topinka 8 million dolllar school crap?
I haven't, but both my parents have. My dad had a kidney transplant in 1989, and my mom has chronic back issues.
I thoroughly enjoyed your post - and I am delighted to hear you and I agree - what a surprise that I am pleased by such a thing.
Last week in Greenville SC I attended a Leadership Seminar - Rudy Guillani was one of the speakers - others included::
Zig Ziglar
Steve Forbes
Peter Lower
Dr. Robert Schuller
Phil Town
Steve Spurrier
and the man who blew everyone away - Rudy Guilliani
It was the first time I have had seen him in person and it was the first time I saw him for longer than a TV segment.
Flat our impressed.
Very upbeat
Very positive on the future of the USA
Very realistic about the war on Islamo-Facists
Very pro business
Very very anti crime
The man has yet to even enter the race - but when he does - and when he has to begin to answer the questions, when he has to state his positions -
I think he will blow the competition off the floor.
GO RUDY
I see. I don't know that being Italian would be an issue in the South, but being Hilary sure will.
I'm waiting for the same comment to be made about Midwesterners. LOL!
hey thats awesome thanks
I DO agree there.
I don't think Southerners will take kindly to an Italian from NY. Just my opinion.
yup
I'd have to either vote third party or not vote I'm afraid. I don't know that I could vote for a candidate that is pro-gay marriage, pro-abortion, pro-milk toast Kennedy-type judges, anti-death penalty. It would be like voting for a Democrat who gets the war. There wouldn't be ANY difference between Giuliani and whatever Democrat gets their nomination for President, other than Giuliani's support for the war, and if Republicans cared so little about all the many social issues that Giuliani opposes, then there wouldn't have been a Republican Majority BEFORE 9-11, because then, those issues were the ONLY issues, and there wouldn't have been any difference between the GOP and DNC candidates if those issues supposedly mean so little to most Republican voters. This argument is fundamentally flawed. Most Republican voters will not pick a RINO for President just because of a popularity contest poll two years before the fact. I'd love to see a poll asking who Republicans would vote for, with their positions on the major issues by their names. Giuliani wouldn't have gotten 30% in that poll, that much is clear, which is why the poll was so vague.
In your dreams Newt, will eat him for lunch and spit him out
SWB, I will vote for Newt if he gets the nomination, but for now, I support Allen, and would love to see Jack Kemp run again.
Hey HC!
One reason why, when I left NYC, the South was not on my short list. My intuition my be flawed, but I listen to my gut>
Love you angcat, but I think you need to give our Southern friends a bit more credit. Tennessee wouldn't vote for Gore after all.
Damn - I keep forgetting about Newt - my bad.
Maybe Rudy will get lucky and Newt won't make it into the debates.
