Perhaps I should call Libby and find out what he says about Novak’s credibility. Oh darn, Libby’s not in his office...does anyone know what happened to him?

For me, it would take credible evidence, NOT something that flushes out of Novak’s mouth.

And we all know Romeny got caught with his hand in the air on Global Warming. Fred didn’t have to fake it.

“In a few months Fred Thompson will drop out, it is just a matter of time and I will remember how you were so desperate for him to win you tried to spread rumors and lies about Romney, but it is all for naught. Not nice at all. not nice. The Clinton machine always thought “the ends justify the means” and I think it is just a way to rationalize doing bad things when you know you are doing them.”

His transcript is not up yet but this is a fair assessment of what he said today.

Rush Limbaugh: “Folks, when you hear pundits predict what will happen, when the talking heads tell you what is going to transpire, when anyone tries to tell you that they know the outcome of all of this... believe me... no one.. and I mean no one knows where this this will end up. It is wide open”.

Well, I'm not asking you specifically. Notice --; all;

A Huckabee "Truth File" is conspicuous by it's absence.

Romney will get snubbed in the south, just like southerners get snubbed in in Yankee land.

Romney is a pseudo conservative. When Ted Kennedy attends the signing of Mitts Guberming health care plan and praises Romney, it pretty much sacks Romney’s conservative credentials.
Teddy Kennedy would never support a conservative program!

Some predictive value there.
***There’s actually a TON of predictive value there. If an intrader was convinced they were wrong, they shorted Obama and went long on Hillary, they would have made a boatload of money.

The polls had it wrong too. And it was polls that were used to exclude Hunter from the New Hampshire debates, the same debates which proved that polls were wrong. But poll results are still valid for EXCLUDING candidates like Hunter, who actually had a DELEGATE that REAL VOTERs voted for, while Rudy had NONE, but look at his polls!

What value were polls other than anti-democratic?

Also, you can point out where one group got it wrong whenever you want, but you’ve never acknowledged that, over the long run, prediction markets are more effective than polls.

So, you stick with your polls that lead to undemocratic, disenfranchised results, and I’ll stick to Intrade that, when it is wrong and I know it, I can make money.

If you’re so convinced Intrade is wrong, you could make money shorting Thompson’s dropout contract. Even I think it’s overpriced at this point.

Yea, you don’t know about Mitt’s fake policemen?
With fake badges? Or the fake Fred site? Or of
his fake claim to be a lifetime hunter?

The man is a fraud. Perhaps you aren’t involved
with the campaign - or are perhaps obfuscating
to make Mitt look like he is honest. I don’t know
which.

Either you don’t know what you’re talking about, or your use of vocabulary is so elastic as to make effective communication impossible.

So if a man is worth ten million or more, he must be a liberal. Sounds like you are supporting Huckabee. Romney got is money the old fashion way he earned it, and he got the class envy the same way.

I do know that there are a lot of detractors who have never met Mitt, and have never met anybody that ever worked with him who are spreading a lot of nonsense.

Tell me, how many times have you met Mitt? If you have an issue with your neighbor, should you not take it up with the neighbor, and not spread insults through cyber-space?

Romney had the advantage of being “set up” in business by a wealthy father, who just happened to be a governor of Michigan.
I wonder how many campaign contributions his daddy got from the unions. hmmmmm

Frankly, a silly argument and silly post in response
to a serious question. You pretended to know nothing
about any of the serious lapses of judgment and truth
Mitt has shown. Since it was also his staff who committed
those acts, I’m not surprised you are covering for
your own.

I have no intention of meeting Mitt, even if he comes
to my hometown. If he moves into my neighborhood, then
he’ll be my neighbor. If I see him employing illegals,
I won’t have to talk to him to evaluate his judgment.

He is a fakir (look it up).
