Obama's book is called "The Audacity of Hope."

But Obama's campaign is really about the mendacity of hype.

Am I the only person who thinks Her THighness Hillary and Obama will lose the democrat nomination to Bill Richardson?

No, you're not. I still think either Hillary or Obama will be the Dem nominee, but I can see where they could esily just nuke each other out of the race. Richardson has a great resume, so he could sccot through as they crash and burn. This scenario has precedent: Rus Feingold was polling at 6% early in his first Senate race, but the front runners went negative early and spent months making vicious personal attacks. Next thing you know, he's beaten them both soundly in the primary...and he went on to beat the Republican and become Wisconsin's junior senator.

You hit it squarely as to the minimal requirements in order to be considered a Republican up there in lulu land.

If their number is unlisted they will not be in whitepages.com. Many people now days just have cell phones and no land line; if that's the case, they would not be listed either.

Foremost, they've heard him speak a number of times and think he's "an incredible orator," Stross says. "And if he does half the things he talks about doing, it will be a wonderful thing."

So they are "anti-big government conservatives" but they think communism would be a "wonderful thing" as long as Obama is the one that imposes it.

Somehow, I doubt their "Republican" credentials. Typical media nonsense.

Yep, I went to www.zabasearch.com and found Robert Stross in Madison, WI. He was born in January l969, that would make him 38 years old.

They believe the Republican Party's been hijacked by the Religious Right and say it's become obsessed with hot button issues like abortion and gay marriage. (The couple are pro-choice and support gay marriage.) "A true Christian doesn't wear their religion on their sleeve or try to force their views on somebody else. They go about their business quietly," Stross says. They're outraged by all the lies and distortions the Bush administration used to manipulate public opinion and justify its invasion of Iraq.

So they are pro gay marriage, pro-abortion, and oppose the War on Terror and promote the left-wing talking points on all of those issues - but they are conservative Republicans? LOL. Nonsense.

She not only is a lifelong Republican, but an anti-big government conservative Republican who campaigned for Robert Dole in 1996.



What, you don't believe me?

They're from Madison, where Republicans are the equivalent of Mensheviks, and you can guess what Dims are the equivalent of.

we pay every day for illegal aliens to drop their anchor babies in our country, and no one seems to have a problem with it.

while we also pay for everything else for them, housing food stamps schooling etc,

while we attempt to pay for our own families

the illegal aliens steal our tax dollars right out from our family dinner table, and our pockets for our own childrens education. time to get real selfish here it is NOT racism, it is not having to share everything we have which is basically COMMUNISM/SOCIALISM.

Who calls him "Robert Dole" anyway? And besides that, there have been a lot of other elections in their lifetime besides 1996 - who did they support in all of the other ones?

Parts of Wisconsin are conservative but Madison is like SanFranSissyCo.

I think they're bogus. And if they truly do exist, I sure feel sorry for little James. He has two idiots for parents.

Lets make them prove these people are real.

Oh my...you don't actually believe these people are really former committed Republicans, do you? The only way it could be more obvious is if their last name was "Seminar."
