Democratic Debate from NYC~~~~~Live thread

Here we go...

[You Dirty Rats]

The entire 'Rat party is completely out of ideas, other than outdated, shopworn, diluted (or in the case of Kucinich, undiluted) Marxism.

The economy is still recovering from the late 90's bubble. Companies (including mine) are still reducing headcount because they got fat, dumb and happy and now have to get lean and competitive. Then we'll see some job growth. People are savvier about the economy than they used to be; that's why Bush is doing surprisingly well, considering the length of the stagnation of the economy.

[LongsforReagan]

That wont go over with the base- idiots like DUers etc.

[mathluv]

Little dickie saying lack of health care is the problem with the economy.

[NYC Republican]

These debates would be a lot better if at the end of each one, they voted somebody off the island. Me, I'd vote Dennis off. It was less embarassing for Cleveland when the river burned than when he speaks.

LOL!

Agree.....

During extended remarks delivered at the Pulaski County GOP Lincoln Day Dinner in Little Rock, Arkansas on May 11, 2001, General Clark declared: "And I'm very glad we've got the great team in office, men like Colin Powell, Don Rumsfeld, Dick Cheney, Condoleezza Rice, Paul O'Neill - people I know very well - our president George W. Bush. We need them there."

Clark on President George Bush: "President George Bush had the courage and the vision... and we will always be grateful to President George Bush for that tremendous leadership and statesmanship."

Clark praised Reagan for improving the military:

"We were really helped when President Ronald Reagan came in. I remember non-commissioned officers who were going to retire and they re-enlisted because they believed in President Reagan."

Clark continued: "That's the kind of President Ronald Reagan was. He helped our country win the Cold War. He put it behind us in a way no one ever believed would be possible. He was truly a great American leader. And those of us in the Armed Forces loved him, respected him, and tremendously admired him for his great leadership."

I saw it now. Thanks. Wonder when he said that...not too recently, I would guess. Not since bill and hillary told him to run for president, for sure.

[LongsforReagan]

Bob will provide us all govmint jobs. Building bridges ,etc.

Oh boy.

Uh oh...

[StriperSniper]

Go take a look at Drudge, Matt must have held it until now. LOL!!! Wes is doing a good job at it via Drudge.

Update: SPY now down 1.02, QQQ down .52 and falling.

[Timesink]

Dennis Kucinich is the most embarrassing thing to happen to Cleveland since Nickel Beer Night.

[Wait4Truth]

That tape is going to drive DUers crazy. They will never support him if he ever said a kind word about the Bush Administration. They were already in a tizzy that Clark voted for Reagan and Bush, Sr. LOL!

[LisaFab]

Probably--Clark's a scary guy, no doubt about it.

[jmstein7]

Did Sharpton just take a subtle shot at Clinton?

And do you ever ask why it is the Europeans, the people that make the Mercedes and the BMW's that got so much money can't put some of that money in their own defense programs and they need us to do their defense for them?" "And I'll tell you what I've learned from Europe is that are a lot of people out in the world who really, really love and admire the United States. Don't you ever believe it when you hear foreign leaders making nasty comments about us. That's them playing to their domestic politics as they misread it. Because when you talk to the people out there, they love us. They love our values. They love what we stand for in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution and the Bill of Rights."

Williams... "Are we talking about a modern day WPA?"

Lieberman... "Yes... "

Geez

[LongsforReagan]

I still predict that Howie will win the nod. Kerry or Gephardt could just by sticking in there. Clark is a media candidate, nothing more.

Ha! Another headline from a poll after the CA debate last night...Californians think Arianna Huffington had poorest performance. Is that an understatment or what?
