Uh oh ... as batshit crazy as this guy is, he was still preferable to McCain.

So what happens if McCain keels over from a heart attack next month? The dude is a very high-mileage 71.

I guess we can always hope. Still, I doubt it really matters anyway. We're stuck with Hillary anyway (or worse yet, the obamanation).

Thanks ... great link. Especially this quote, which is so spot on it's scary:

From James Wolcott's Blog:

http://www.vanityfair.com/politics/blog ... e-i-v.html

"Perhaps it's my atheism at work but I found myself increasingly wary of and resistant to the salvational fervor of the Obama campaign, the idealistic zeal divorced from any particular policy or cause and chariot-driven by pure euphoria. I can picture President Hillary in the White House dealing with a recalcitrant Republican faction; I can't picture President Obama in the same role because his summons to history and call to hope seems to transcend legislative maneuvers and horse-trading; his charisma is on a more ethereal plane, and I don't look to politics for transcendence and self-certification."

LOL, somebody call Oprah and tell her the same:

Dinkins became mayor of New York City on a similar calling card. He was pretty ineffectual.

p.s. Sorry for the above edit, Motors. I hit "edit" instead of "reply" by mistake [B)]

That speech made me want to vomit.

Tangent but...

Is Dick Cheney still alive???

All I can say is America dodged a possible theocratic bullet today. Of course I'm sure Romney knew that by staying in the race the GOP leadership would be pissed at him and that would put an end to a 2012 run. So (unfortunately) I'm sure he'll be back.[xx(]

Is the media now going to say that it's a two man race between McCain & Huckabee and totally ignore Ron Paul?

[SuNomi]

Wow. I'm amazed at how many Republicans there are on this board. Sure Clinton & Obama aren't saints and I'm no fan of this "roll over" Congress but...4 more years of an already bankrupt conservative agenda? Really? How bad does it have to get?

As much as I disagree with him on many issues, Ron Paul is the only candidate on either side with the cajones to hold these guy's feet to the fire on Iraq. I love how uncomfortable and dismissive McCain gets whenever Paul speaks. It's almost like the crazy uncle
whom no one wants to deal with when he blurts out the family secrets. I hope he stays to keep the debate real.

STUCK with Hillary? You can suck my nuts. Hillary is a strong woman who has proven herself and she should be leading our country! I voted for her and I hope she wins. She is a fighter, and I'm just TIRED of testosterone politics. Worse yet, I can't believe there is anyone who believes that demonizing illegal immigrants or gay people (like me) for "threatening" the institution of marriage is acceptable for anyone. What about lifting everyone up and bringing people together, using diplomacy before force? Republicans are a horrible, hateful breed of human being. I'm appalled that anyone thinks another Republican would bring us any good, especially after the last eight years of hell we've endured. And, no...let's not go back to the "Clinton years" they say. No, let's NOT go back to a balanced budget or economic surpluses, record low unemployment, and an unparalleled respect on the global scale. No, Republican is the way! Bite me.
