Thune is marvelous.
He's presidential timber after a little more seasoning.
Must of been something you did Daschle!
Indeed. The man is as sharp as a needle. I watched him in that last debate against Daschle. He stuck to message, he never stumbled, he was clear, articulate, confident, determined and was armed with facts the way an Apache helicopter carries Hellfire anti-tank missiles. Thune's going to go far, methinks, and I'd love to see him run for President at some point.
Lokks kinda like Steve McQueen.
Yep.
I watched both debates (assuming the MTP
match-up with Dashole can be called a debate
as it was billed)and both times, Thune trounced
Dashole with facts and charm.
He's worth watching, if only to be awed.
When I went back to school to finish my degree a few years ago (@ Penn State), I took a Poly Sci class as one of my electives.
We were all assigned a specific congress critter (and his/her district) to write a paper on and I wound up with Thune.
Needless to say the lib professor had to give me an A on the paper. I'll have to find it and maybe scan it and post it.
Ever since I researched and wrote that paper, I've always followed his career.
Take That! You Saddam-loving, Marxist-fulminating bastid!
Thune is easier on the eye and ear than dashole.
Dear onyx,
"Thune is marvelous.
"He's presidential timber after a little more seasoning."
Then after a term in the Senate, he must run for governor.

They were able to maintain a certain life style with her, the bag lady, selling influence to major clients and him, delivering legislation or influence to those clients in return for big cash (or, in some cases, building materials). What now? It's all in their tax returns, their secret tax returns. Oh, sure Tommie the Commie still has some contacts he can sell but how long will that last?
The disgrace Dashole brought on SD will soon disapate and SD will enjoy some return of the national advertising it did to attract tourists, now that he's gone. But, how about Tommie?
Man oh man............in that picture he looks EXACTLY like my ex-husband.......shudder.
Send your paper to Thune and try to keep in touch with him. It would be a wonderful experience for him and you.
Vice President in 08 Maybe.
YES!
Find it and post it
and then send a copy to
Senator Thune!
I bet he'd love it.
As there is a curse on the Senators running for Presidency, he'll have to switch to being a governor after senatorial term(s).
He'll get lost in SD as governor.
He can break thru from the senate.
I think he's THAT GOOD.
