So far, the early exiting polls are showing Obama really laying the
timber to Clinton.

Maginally, but getting wins straight up.

Very interesting.
Now pretty even up - Obama got five states, Clinton has five states.

Curiously, it seems to be breaking along race lines.

This is going to be very interesting.

Yeah, the "breaking along racial lines" bit worries me. I'd rather
see it breaking much, much closer in that area. But I can't fault
black voters for going en masse for Barack Obama. He's got a lot of
charisma, he's really smart and accomplished, and he's a positive
role model for young blacks, especially taking into account his
modest beginnings.

I'll be delighted to see him in the Oval Office, as I would with
Hillary there.

I'm very happy to see Romney tanking.

And when the voters get fed up with higher taxes, "wait-your-turn"
medical care and cowardice abroad, the Republicans will take
Congress back in 2010, the White House in 2012.




Not to worry, Lu...the way we are arranging it, only you and your
conservacrap buddies will find themselves paying higher taxes and
waiting in line for health care. Turnabout is fair play, after all!

As for cowardice abroad, that's an attribute of George W. Bush. He's
scared of meeting with his adversaries and sends in the troops, instead.

What would you do if you were president? Macho man. Talk about the
balls of a brass monkey; you got em Harry. Geeeze. Have you forgotten
your military days? Or lack thereof.



If I had been president after 9-11 and determined that attacking another
country was necessary, I would have made damned sure the attack was
aimed at the right country. Iraq was not the right country. But before
that, I would have worked a bit harder than Bush did.


Harry,
Right after 9/11, you said you would drop leaflets all over Iraq telling
everyone to get out of the cities, then the next day you would bomb them
into the dark ages. I think you said completely destroy their
infrastructure so they could not spend any time with terrorism.

It seems that as bad as Bush handled the situation, he did it much
better than you would.
