You gotta remember Hillary probably only bathes once a week, and as for McCain looks like he had a bit of a temper tantrum with some of his rat journalist buddies!
Be careful Sen. your "slip" is showing.

Exactly, Ellesu. He did them a favor, in my opinion, by not calling attention to the mess that is Louisiana.

While Arkansas is a predominantly Democratic state, Huckabee won two full terms in landslides. He championed tax increases for public schools, expanded state insurance programs for the children of the working poor and opposed banning state services for illegal immigrants.

The above is from the Huckabee Announces thread:

Mike Huckabee Launches Presidential Bid

Posted by jern On 01/28/2007 9:11:51 AM CST · 6 replies · 97+ views Washington Post ^ | January 28, 2007 | AP WASHINGTON -- Conservative Republican Mike Huckabee, seeking to repeat the success of another former governor from Hope, Ark., said Sunday he is taking the first step in what he acknowledged is an underdog bid for the White House in 2008. Huckabee, who left office Jan. 9 after serving 10 1/2 years as governor of a Democratic-leaning state, faces steep odds in a crowded GOP field that includes well-known and well-funded hopefuls such as Sen. John McCain of Arizona, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani.

It appears to be The Morning of the Wannabes.

Many presidential contenders.

But, where's JohnnyMc and his hemorrhoid Graham? Both are MIA. Usually they at least alternate weekends.


Wheeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrr's Johnny?

Is he still in recovery from Russert's pelting last weekend?

The McManiac and puppet boy are together in Davos, Switzerland, along with their close personal friends, George Soros, Jon F'n Carry and the ex President of Iran.  McCain is showing his usual reserved and even tempered nature as he sucks up to the press, who have now decided that they no longer see him as a valuable Bush basher since he supports the surge escalation.  Fortunately he's exhibiting this good natured approach to other people with lovely folks like Ariana Huffington:

The best part about the Wolf interview with Cheney was the silent, withering stare after Cheney told him his question was out of line. I got the impression Blitzer developed a bladder control problem during those moments.

NBC and of course, MSNBC has been pushing for a cut off of funds.....every chance they get. They are relentless in their agenda to end the war, the consequences be damned.

The America haters in our government know they will get cover from the MSM and in particular NBC.

Morning. Don't know the town name but I heard yesterday that Edwards owns the most expensive house in it. It's amazing how Edwards claims to represent the lower end while living it up at the highest end. What a guy.

Will someone please explain to me the obsession with Joe Biden that all the Sunday show hosts have?

Maybe because he is the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Surprising as it may seem, he is a favorite with many liberals I know. They think he has lots of experience and knowledge about foreign affairs; he appears to be in the political center of his party; and he doesn't give the impression of being a rabble-rouser or flash-in-the-pan. When I tell them he is the DUMBEST man in the Senate, they are incredulous.

Is the european media gloating over jon carry's referring to America as a pariah?

Interesting that jon carry and janefonda were on the world stage bashing America on the same day.

McPain and his puppet are in Davos.  See my post #184 for a link to what I think is an interesting post from Ariana about her encounter with him there.  At least he's being a McPain to someone who I think deserves it.

[OldFriend]

Good morning, your comment about the kind of candidate we need SAYS IT ALL!

[rodguy911]

While I am not sure that it's right the 12 per day(American citizens killed by illegals) figure is plausible.

Following upon your link it seems King generated those statistics on his own, one can only hope they are at least close.

If they are, this becomes the biggest story never told! That illegals are killing off far more of our citizens, in a very brutal manner as well, than we ever could lose in Iraq and nothing at all is being done about it.

Excellent post and great find sgtyork!

They seem to have more attention to Blair's closing speech and the fact that Hilliary is in IOWA or that was my impression.

They did show a brief clip of Kerry but Hilliary and Obama are their current obsessions.

[rodguy911]

Absolutely correct.

[OldFriend]

Waiting for a single TV or radio host to ask a dem what they would do to win in Iraq.

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

Here goes Webb......Lampshade?

[snugs]

You may well wait to hell freezes over

[OldFriend]

Notice the media ignoring the fact that when the President asked Pelosi and Reid to join in a committe to seek solutions for Iraq........they both said NO NO NO

[edpc]

I think the fascination with Biden comes from his overbearing arrogance and condescension. It's like watching something painful or horrible....you know you should turn away, but it's just so mesmerizing.

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

this was scripted cause Schiefer corrected Webb way too fast with just the right word!
