Anybody but Hillary!

We already have anybody but Hillary. Do we want another Republican president? I sure as hell don't, and Hillary is the best candidate to make sure it doesn't happen.

It is not incorrect to say she is polarizing, but it may be better to be polarizing than for people to not have an opinion of you at all. 61% of Americans have no opinion of Barack Obama. Probably because he is so new. He is green; Hillary has the experience, and has lived a winning presidential campaign. And she is not as hated as you may believe. She has the highest approval rating of any 2008 presidential candidate, Democrat or Republican.

Information comes from here.

Okay, WHY would you want a corrupt, lying, manipulative, (wait am I talking about Hilary or George W?...oh yeah Hilliary) thing like her? Why is the choice always between the lesser of two evlis? Why not get a real candidate? Where is todays Thmoas Jefferson? There must be ONE noncorrupt, honest person out there. I would rather vote for an unknown possible evil, rather than one we KNOW is a corrupt, ...etc. like Hillary

You'd vote for someone based on their looks? Or you'd vote for a woman based on her looks?
I'm fine, thank you for asking.

I just came back from yoga. Namaste.

She's been convicted of none of those things. And let's face it. We're all manipulative in our own ways, some more than others.

And I'm not directing this next remark soley at you Jim but some of the men I have talked to today are really freaked about the prospect of Mrs. Clinton becoming president. It's like she's out to steal their balls or something. What gives?

This is gonna be high entertainment. I think Clinton's chances are good to get the nomination but doubt she is electable. The republicans don't just hate her - they loathe and despise her. As do many others. If she gets the nomantion, it'll be the ugliest, meanest campaign in modern history.
And when it comes down to it, I think many guys will have nut shrinkage and be unable to vote for a woman for president. The first thing they will think will be PMS.
Obama hasn't got a prayer. First off, he's not well known enough. Second, he's black (or half, anyway). Third and worst - that ridiculous name. Barack OBAMA. Are you kidding me? Barack HUSSEIN OBAMA? No chance. The populace of this country is neither interested enough nor enlightened enough to look past his race or his name. Never gonna happen.

McCain is interesting. I don't mind him too much. But, the religious fanatics don't like him so his chances for getting the nomination are slim.

It's gonna be interesting.

Why is it that the minute you dislike someone everyone thinks it is because of gender or race? That has nothing to do with it. I don't like how she conducts herself, I don't like the clintons in general for that reason, and that reason alone. I would have the same reaction if Bill were somehow allowed to run again. (Thank god, that will never be).

I would love a women president. It might bring a different outlook to the whole mess. Unfortunately, to get to that level, the system would prevent any fresh views from anyone. Male or Female. I vote for the ideas of the person, not the color of their skin or the XY chromosomes factor.

And now...a baby polar bear

We will if you will!

Is your next election in 2008 or 2010? I just read about some of the Canadian election guidelines on wiki & it was confusing as hell. Do you guys not have simple calendars???

Edwards over all...sorry! (Btw, I am married to a lifelong Democrat who loathes H.Clinton)

I wonder if an Independent will make the ballot this time around in OK? Rather enjoy wasting my vote this time instead of voting for candidates I dislike...
