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 about Huckabee. If he could only change his last name. 8)



He *did* radically change his physical image. Lost a ton of weight.

Eisboch




And he has kept it off.

I don't like many of his positions, but I am convinced he has arrived at
them sincerely. I do like his "explanation" of the beginning of life
that melds creation and evolution.

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.

I missed it. Which stance did Romney take on reproductive rights? He's got
several, depending on who's asking or paying attention.

Mike Huckabee would be my choice.

I don't consider it a "performance", but I agree with you regarding Mike
Huckabee.
I wish he would get some more national attention.

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.

Not sure, but I think he lost the weight due to health reasons instad
of *image* (large threat of diabetes)

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.

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.

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..
