This is the race that the MSM wanted. Liberal against RINO. NO Conservatives need apply!

That’s right. No way to lose for the MSM.

Conservatives need a TV station. FOX isn’t cutting it. We need Romney to invest.

I had a really, really bad one the other night. Hillary and Obama made up and the ticket was Hillary - Pres, Obama - V.P. Truly horrifying!

Obama will have such mess in Washington in two years that the press that is now wetting their pants with excite for him will be ready to ditch him. Jimmy Carter II

SuperConservatives get ready to run in 2012!

Get ready to run in 2010 Midterms. We are going to have to go pick up the pieces in DC after either of these train wrecks waiting to happen get in.

We elected John Warner after all, and McCain is a lot like John Warner.

McCain is a heck of a lot more like Jim Webb than John Warner.

Disagree. This guy actually has brains, IMO Carter was perhaps the dumbest out of some very, very dumb ones.

>> Do we hope for the most flawed and divisive among them to wind up with the nomination?

Hope is one thing. (Or prayer, which I think is more effective than mere hope.)

Deluding yourself into thinking you can CAUSE it is another.

Actually, the whole business of predicting which candidate is “worse” or “less electable” is delusional as well.

Good luck with that, if that’s what you think this election should be about.

Me? I’m going to cast my lot based on what I think is best for the country. Not on what the GOP and its shills tell me is best for the *party*.

That means NO HILLARY. NO CLINTOONS EVER AGAIN IN THE WHITE HOUSE. PERIOD. NOT HILLARY, NOT BILL, NOT CHELSEA, NOT THEIR FLEARIDDEN PETS, NOT THEIR GOLDFISH.

I hope I’m clear on that!

I suppose McInsane is, maybe, able to wollop him in the debates after the Dums nominate him?

No. Won't happen. Unless racism kicks in. That isn't good either. That is NOT what it is about with me.

Will Hitliary pull off the super delegate putsch?

If she wins TX, PA & OH, maybe. Otherwise I don't even want to guess. If she does pull it off, there is likely to be trouble.

This is one mell of a hess facing this country. Some hard lessons will probably have to be learned on both sides.

You've just pegged the California "Lottery" scam.

Stay home and teach our stupid party a real lesson

That would be dumb. Go out and vote. Elect as many Conservatives or decent Republicans to office at all levels as you can. Either don't vote, write in a vote or vote 3rd party on the Presidential ballot if you must but VOTE. You state and local races have a much more direct impact on your life then National politics. We need all the office holders we can get to derail as much of the Leftist train screaming down the tracks at us as we can. Let set ourselves up to kick ass in 2010 Midterms by showing the voters what REAL change can look like.

I’ll vote for the muzzie in my HI primary next week to help end the ‘Toon Era, and I think that’s where about a third of his turnout comes from. That is the only historic thing about this race.

But he’s got 9 months for the public to start seeing through the pixie dust that currently surrounds him.

And in November, there will be only one candidate who is against the killing of the unborn, and for the killing of muzzies.

That is who will get my crawling over broken glass vote.

I never imagined that I’d vote for a guy who’s middle name is Hussein. Go figure.

But that’s how much we despise the Toon Machine.

"If the government gives college kids 4,000 big ones, then the College will just raise tuition 4,000 big ones, DUH"

Yep. Just like the Mortgage thing. Lend someone $750,000 to buy a $300,000 home and voila, the price just got to be $750,000. Bought by someone with an annual income of $45,000.

Oh, got to run, McCain is on, right after Obama. What a stale, tired poorly read from the Prompter speech in contrast with Obama.

A serious Butt-Kicking in the making!
