I say.....(make your predictions here)
The minds of Freepers | 11/05/02 | me

Posted on 11/05/2002 3:42:41 AM PST by wewillnotfail

Well, we have come to the point where the rubber meets the road. We all have our opinions or gut feelings about what is going to happen in this election. Here is your chance to carve your opinions into stone, or at least, into FR's data base. Tomorrow, or whenever we find out the results, wouldn't it be nice to have the whole world know that you nailed it on the head?

I've picked ten races, just to make the post election math easier. Wanna play?

Hutchinson (R) - Pryor (D) Senate in Arkansas
Chambliss (R) - Cleland (D) Senate in Georgia
Coleman (R) - Mondale (D) Senate in Minnesota
Talent (R) - Carnahan (D) Senate in Missouri
Sununu (R) - Shaheen (D) Senate in New Hampshire
Dole (R) - Bowles(D) Senate in North Carolina
Thune (R) - Johnson (D) Senate in South Dakota
Simon (R) - Davis (D) Governor of California
Bush (R) - McBride (D) Governor of Florida
Ehrlich (R - Townsend (D) Governor of Maryland

OK..Ten races...how many will you get right?

No prizes in this FR contest except the bragging rights and a time/date stamp on your post url, to prove your prognostication prowess!

Mud??
My inlaws are 'Rats.

I love these people; but, truth be known I wouldn't walk across the street to speak with 'em.
Nevermind driving down across the country to the condo.

It's just a bummer whenever we're together & Mud?
You wouldn't last an hour; the man's a Liberal academic & has defined the very words: arrogant, obnoxious, & close-minded.
He's also having been a star football player & Head Coach in his day, quite aggressive & "in your face."
So there's no "discussing" politics with this man; no, not unless it's ripping the "rich" political Right's treatment of the "working man Left."

You wouldn't want that, thrust me.
Besides, my bride would insist if we weren't going to do things as a family unit -- ie. the 4 of us -- we not go.

Besides, I'm sure they're having a "funeral," of sorts following the election results.
Well if I weren't so passionate about my politics I might come down join 'em & invite your group over, too.
Because after all, Mud.
We all know what a "funeral" translates into for a 'Rat, right??

...PARTY TIME!!!!!!!

You are toooooo funny.
I'm wiping laughter tears from my eyes here! *LOL*

BTW..there are no 'Rats' in my family (obviously), but half of them I wouldn't cross the road to visit either.
You can pick your friends, but not your relatives. And while blood is thicker than water, some of my folk are 'thicker' than most! *LOL*

Set down the brew, sonny!!

The powers-that-be on the Left will have to undoubtably move McAuliff off to the fringe; before, they dump 'em.

BUT...never forget Terry McAuliff knows where each & every body has been buried since God knows when.
Terry McA even knows of a few bodies we don't know about, for crying out loud.

When a HUGE majority of lesser-known 'Rat pols arose to prominence for the explicit purpose of defending the Pig-In-Chief during impeachment?
It's my contention those weasels did so under duress; moreover, it was the DNC's knowledge the "body locatiion(s) committed by each of these lesser-known 'Rats responsible for their motivation to come out & fall on their swords for X42.

You don't think these cowardly, corrupt CYA-type snakes would for one instant have jeopardized their political careers for the likes of a sickening, publically ACKNOWLEDHED sleeze-bag like the Sink Emporer out of any "love" for the skink or sense of, "patriotism," do you??

Point is, the "Big 'Rat Leftists" might infact *rid* themselves of Terry McAuliff; granted.
But like the dangerously poisonous serpent this guy is?
TMac will be given a very wide birth with which to walk away & most people [read: pols] will be simply elated.

The guy simply knows too much, Mud; &, knows slime about members on both sides of the isle.
His attitute reeks of a confidence which cannot be explained in any other rational, logicl way.

Now I will say this much about Terry McAuliff's future.

I WILL collect my bet based upon the wager TMac WILL NOT BE INDICTED for anything, a'tall.
Reconcile that fact of life, Mud!!

Butttttt...I wouldn't bet you a plug-nickle on the guy's, "health," either.

If they terminate Terry McAuliff's role, in lieu of a new DNC Chair?
Terry had better damned well restrict his mode of travel from [that] moment forward to taking a bus.
Get it?

...& watch anyone coming too close to him carrying an icepick.

T-MAXX Slix 'HO...and he'll be the first one the Clintons jettison...and this time next year Terry "The PUNK" McAuliffe will be in a Federal Penitentiary dreading the next round of PrisonJustice bein' dealt out by the 6'6", 350-pound cellmate affectionately dubbed "Dwight!!"

Thanks for the heads up! I suspect the extreme left are feeling a lot more vindictive towards McAuliffe than anyone else...

"Chi-Com Spies!!"
(To be sung to the Eagles' "Lyin' Eyes")

Lib'ral Pols just seem so gawl-durned squirrelly...
SlickWillie's Whore'd trusts the Leftists' Bile!!
Effete ol' men, will go now to the Jury;
They'll fess up and digrace their Elite Style.
Late last night, most DemonRATS were lonely...
Reckon every Dolt knows Clinton isn't Right!!
And it breaks MUD's heart to think RATS love is only...
Given to Clintons who stand fer Rape and Vice!!
So RATS tells Slick they must Vote NOW fer the Country...
To support their Nation who Left's torn down...
But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin'
Left is headed for the FReepin' side of town!!

{start_of_chorus}
You can't hide yer ChiComSpies!!
Yes...Left's Vile and lost passion-wise!!
I thought by now RATS'd realize...
There ain't no way to hide Slick's Brazen Lies!!
{end_of_chorus}

On the other side of town, Mudboy is waiting...
With fiery eyes and dreams no RAT shall steal!!
She drives on through the night anticipating
'Cuz he makes her feel the way she used to feel.
Left rushes to Slick's arms, they fell together!!
She whispers that it's only fer awhile
She swears that soon she'll be comin'back forever...
She pulls away and leaves him with a smile

{start_of_chorus}
You can't hide your lyin' eyes,
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes

{end_of_chorus}

RATS, wake up and pour yerself a strong one...
And finds out that Left's stars just keep on LYIN'!!
An other night, it's gonna be a long one;
She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry
Left wonders how it ever got this crazy...
She thinks about a boy she knew in school.
Did she get tired or did she just get lazy?!
She's so far gone she feels just like a fool.
My, oh my, you sure know how to arrange things
You set it up so well, so carefully
Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things
You're still the same old girl you used to be

Work in progress...MUD

"You are toooooo funny."

Hi Angel!!
You like?
Well...I'm *inspired*, y'know?

I'm wiping laughter tears from my eyes here! *LOL*"

"Medicine for the soul," they say. :^)

"BTW..there are no 'Rats' in my family (obviously), but half of them I wouldn't cross the road to visit either."

HA!!
Really????? ~not *one*??
Want any??
I'm flush with the suckers! (~God Bless 'em)

"You can pick your friends, but not your relatives. And while blood is thicker than water, some of my folk are 'thicker' than most! *LOL*"

Ain't it the truth, ever.
~sigh~
So young, so smart. ;^)

As you can see, the boy's all worked up & in a frenzy, like a maaaaaad-doooog he's foamin' at the mouth, I swear.

*Not* the time to try & "reason," that's for damned sure.
Of course, I've yet to find a [good] "time" to reason with that goofball.

Ol' Mud's a lot like Perot's fictitious, "Uncle Charlie."
You remember?
The one who supposedly lived up in everyone's attic??

...& was crazier than a loon. :o)

No, but I ain't paying, either.
I don't *pay* on a cadaver, buster; *just* a legally served indictment from a Grand Jury on the guy when he's maintains a readable pulse.
Nes pas?

"Nawww...that ain't right, IMHO. Sultan, you wanna step in here?! Landru's trying to finagle our bet...MUD"

Hey!!!!
WATCH HIS HANDS your Honor!!
He's truly a slick customer, that one.
Lyin', twistin' my words while squirming like a madman as if it weren't nuthin' unusual, a'tall!

...that boy's worse than a weasel-worm on a Texas hotplate.
