I’m not convinced the Democrats hate the Clintons. They’re not very popular with us. That’s for sure. There was this love affair that developed for Obama. Hillary has always been an abrasive witch, but she nearly pulled it out anyway. Obama was loved a bit more than she was, but it was quite close.

The racial ceiling in major cities and then governorships weren’t led by females unless I’m forgetting some things. I think the presidency will work along the same lines.

I would probably vote for J.C. Watts without much trouble. I would probably vote for a Jean Kirkpatrick type without too much trouble. I think Jean was a bit more of a Democrat than I’d be comfortable with, but her international relations performance during her tenure was pretty good.

I don’t want to see either ceiling broken for the sake of breaking it. I’m sure you agree with that. When a capable individual comes along, they’ll be voted in. I won’t mind as long as they have a firm grip on Conservatism.

I don’t think Obama has a firm grip on much of anything.

You may be right, Obama may be doomed. If he loses now, it will be because it becomes apparent how weak a figure he is. If he can keep up the orations, avoid debates and avoid making mistakes, he may not lose. The Democrats are desperate to get the White House back.

This contest is for President of the United States. Obama has demonstrated a lacking that even Hillary wouldn't have exposed. She'd have had better handlers.

Me either, I was just pointing out the fact that a woman with the right 'cred' could get it done before a minority will. We have a lot more women.

Yes, after eight years of Bush, who wouldn't be? Trouble is: they biffed it by chosing Obama. He's not even a Tan Kennedy. They ran a business. He's a 'community organizer' with a degree. Big difference. His qoute could be: "Ask not what the world can do for you, but what you can do for the world."

I want: "Don't ask me to do anything I wouldn't do for myself or my family, 'cause it'll ultimately affect my country- the right way."
