McCain and Giuliani want to change the constitution for Schwarzenegger, et.al.

Ignore the above... I see there is already an article posted on the same subject—and I incorrectly wrote McCain, instead of Huckabee, although McCain’s answer was also wrong (”He and I have many similar attributes, so I have to seriously consider it.”)

Why do you think the media forced the campaign on voters so early? Think about it.
***So they could ignore Duncan Hunter for as long as possible?

Not on your life either! ;^)

"McCain and Giuliani want to change the constitution for Schwarzenegger, et.al."

One more well deserved nail in both coffins.

That's all we need--some g..d foreigner as president. We don't have enough of them cluttering up our streets and cities already. Maybe we can open another Korea Town, Little Saigon, or Chinatown...what's next, Little Baghdad? Or perhaps we might stuff some more Cubans into Florida and bulk up the Detroit and Minnesota areas with some more Muslims since both areas seem to be a little light on unwanted foreigners...

Isn't multiculturalism just wonderful...kind of takes your breath away, doesn't it?

Watching that debate last night reminded me there is still hope for these United States in Ron Paul.

That's how I felt, too.

Paul's answers were correct, Constitutional, and spot on each and every time.

I agree.

SEN. MCCAIN: I give the president of the United States the line- item veto on these bills as well as spending bills. The Alternative Minimum Tax is obviously eating Americans alive, and it's got to be repealed.

Another one. Another one I think is important is a $3,000 tax credit for people to be able to purchase health insurance, so low- income Americans will have access to health care, which is an amazing and difficult problem today; and a simpler, flatter fair tax so that Americans don't have to spend $140 billion, as they just did last April, to prepare tax reform -- returns.

McCain doesn't ahve a clue how much it costs to purchase health care plans. A family of four runs about $500 or $600 a month. $3,000 will buy about 6 months of health care. That's better than nothing of course.

I watched celebrity Governor Arnold MakinCAsuffernagger jump up from the front row and buddy up with the Mormon/Mason Governor, most certainly because of Rowdy Romney's Radical Resolution to the supposed Hitlery healthcare crisis, then when he's walked clear across the front of the room arm-in-arm with him, he stopped to kiss lump-jawed old John McLame on all four cheeks!!!

I was sure he was looking for his soul-mate Rudy-Tudy-Mucka-Nudy who probably doesn't measure up since he was only a Mayor!!!

The Republican Party is in mortal danger of becoming totally hijacked and being driven off to some very preverted "chop-shop!"

Last night was very revealing to me!!!

"RINOs go wild..."

If I wasn't sort of attached to my tagline, I'd be building on that!

Politics is getting downright creepy!
It's like the pod people are infesting the GOP and secretly spreading more pods
.... Invasion of the Body Snatchers!

I hate to say it, I really do, but we may be witnessing the death throes of the GOP. If 2008 goes the way of the 2006 midterm, I believe the GOP may very well implode.

It doesn't look good.

Ultra by any chance did you run across the question by Matthews regarding what do you hate most about america? I checked the transcript and cant seem to find it there.

Someone suggested that Chris Mathews was avoiding Duncan Hunter. If so, I consider that a plus for Hunter. I did a search on the name of each candidate, and counted how many times their name came up. Someone might want to double-check. One could do a better analysis by going through the transcript to see how many times each was addressed with a question. But I just did simple count on names. This is how it came out:
Hunter 21
Brownback 32
Gilmore 33
Giuliani 47
Huckabee 31
McCain 50
Paul 29
Tancredo 42
Thompson 28
Romney 50

This makes it look as though Chris Mathews may have been avoiding Duncan Hunter.

Thanks for that info. Some have blogged that Chris Matthews was the loser in the debate. These numbers support such a conclusion.
