I don't want to get into the politics of their positions, but
if
you
watched the GOP debate/discussion yesterday, what did you
think
of
the
candidates as performers?

I thought Guiliani and Romney did the best sales job in terms
of
their
grasp of issues and hard-driving presentation, but I liked
Mike
Huckabee
the best. He seems the most sincere and decent. Fred Thompson
looked
old, unprepared, out of place, even though he told a couple of
cute
jokes. McCain is trying too hard and it shows. The rest of the
crew
should drop out now.

Agree with Eisboch's comment. Obama should give Huckabee his
donation
money. Huckabee could put it to some good use. McCain should
do
the
same
thing.

trolling trolling trolling....

The difference is much too subtle for you.

No. Anything you disagree with, or forces you to think, you
consider
out
of
bounds. If you knew anything at all about Romney, you'd know he's
a
chameleon. He'll say whatever his audience hopes for with regard
to
certain
subjects. He's stated so many different things with regard to
reproductive
choice that his critics call him Mr. Multiple Choice. And, he
criticizes
universal health care by calling it a socialist idea, even though
Clinton's
suggestions are very similar to the one Romney himself promoted in
Massachusetts.

You should expand your universe of news sources to include some
that
are
intended for adults who give a damn about this country.

...like I said.

You'll probably choose your candidate in the same way as a 20 year
old
girl
interviewed on NPR just after the last election. She voted for Bush
because
she thought he had cute ears.

...over the ocean blue...

By the way, net cop, I wasn't about to debate reproductive rights
issues.
I
was simply pointing out that Romney changes his stance on these issues
depending on his audience, so there's really no way to know where
he'll
land
if elected.

How you haven't seen this is beyond me. But, you probably wear safety
glasses when brushing your teeth, so anything's possible.- Hide quoted

Yeah, and Hillary is solid as a rock, right? I don't hear Romney
taking 4 positions on an issue, with four different dialects, in one
day. Not to mention, at least Romney is willing to stand up in front
of a hostile interivew and explain his posititions and their
evolution. Not on dem (Hillary) will even take unscripted questions,
much less address the other half of the country. Everytime she gets a
quesiton she doesn't like, she attacks the questioner, it is a tactic
developed by the Clintons back a few years ago... They just call it a
vast right wing conspiracy, and dodge.. All the time setting up groups
like Media Matters to lie and run interferance..

Meanwhile, he uses the words "socialized medicine" to describe other
people's health care ideas, while conveniently forgetting that many of
these
plans are almost identical to the one he promoted in Massachusetts.

You probably don't understand why this is odd.- Hide quoted text -

What is with the constant accusations that folks that don't agree with
you "don't understand' or "don't read" or "don't care"... Do you
understand the concept of a Democratic Republic?? Do you understand
that the country is bigger than your basement apartment and a stack of
playboy magazines? I think you are stuck in a teenage fantasy, go back
to Jon Stewart, he seems to think at your level... Intolerant, and
ignorant...


What I understand is that it's obscene for politicians to use words
inaccurately, just because certain words are known to elicit a response from
an audience which also doesn't understand that they're being assaulted with
the wrong words. It sure works well, though.

"socialized medicine" (like the Veteran's Administration)
"fight them there so we don't have to fight them there"
"Bring 'em on!"
"cut & run"
