Sen. Dodd says that Obama will be the nominee.
He says the Clintons are great democrats and care about the country very much. (Two lies in one sentence.)
All this jumping ship from Hillary to Obama proves to me Democrats always knew how horrible the Clinton’s really are, even while defending them tooth and nail.
We have a candidate who has made the contest a battle of race,black vs. white. Guess who wins that.
Than we have yet another candidate who is all things to all people, he just loves everyone, yet is hard to figure where he actually stands or poses from time to time.
So it's finger in the wind vs. Wright was wrong but I still like him anyway if it's Monday in Detroit.
So what happened to Freeper Polls?
Tells you alot about them, doesn't it.
No predictions from me because the situation is so fluid. There are so many factors that could influence the results, many of them out of the control of either candidate. Right now, I would have to consider the Dems to be the favorite. They have a lot going for them, including a Rep president with very low favorability ratings, an unpopular war, and a flagging economy.
After hearing the O’Reily interview, I agree. McCain is simply awful. When he equated the bleak empty permafrost tundra of ANWR with the Grand Canyon, and threw in Teddy Roosevelt’s conservationism as his model for such a comparison, I nearly lost my lunch! Teddy would not agree. He would want us to drill, knowing full well that we can drill in a relatively small zone compared to the enormous expanse of frozen, treeless flatland that is ANWR. The fact that the environmentaists will not give an inch on ANWR is very telling as to who they support, the average hard working American, or the goddess Gaia.
McCain fails to realize, the little guy is hurting due to increased energy costs brought on to a very great extent to our foolishness concerning the environment; where no scientific evidence but only raw emotion rules to our disadvantage. Even the French get 80% of their electricity from nuclear power that we’ve been taught to fear thanks to Hollywood and the Left. But it’s not just in the gas tank that the little guy is hurting on now, but on everything he needs to buy and survive. The dem candidates want to make it worse by passing a tax on the energy companies that will only be passed on to the public. How do they intend to stop that? They can’t and they won’t! But hey, they’ll tax all of us through their new tax collector EXXON/Mobil.
McCain has a golden opportunity to help his country and his countrymen but what is he going to do? Tow the environmentalist line, which is nature trumps mankind, plain and simple.
I’ve had it with him. McCain is no Republican.
Yep, there is no choice on that issue between the two candidates.
As long as the big players are more afraid of the CCF than the "change for a dollar crowd", Hillary will still be queen. The minute that equation changes watch out.
I do believe he is, I am just not sure I can convince myself that I can vote for him.
I think you’re right. About the only thing a McCain win gives us is four years to find a real conservative to run in 2012.
Ah, the Redneck Riviera! Are you going through Alabama? That's home to us Alas Babylonians, you know!
McAuliff busy spinning the “she wins the swing states” line.
We don’t have a nominee, we don’t have a nominee, brays McAuliff.
The Clintons, if you believe McAuliff, are not giving up. This will become even more brutal than it already is.
Yes ma’am.
Agree, even if there are “only” 12 million illegals, that will bring in another 66 million thru chain migration, i.e., family reunification, according to Robert Rector of the Heritage Foundation. That alone will destroy this country. If there are 38 million, God help us.
Democrat campaign motifs focus against a “third Bush term” “McBush” etc.
In the meantime, Democrat voters, faced with an actual third Clinton term have said “no thanks.”
