I dunno. It is not easy trying to handicap the GOP side this year,
because almost all of them seem to be clones of each other or far-out
religiosos or nutcases. The only one I have any respect for is John McCain.


Yeah, and the dems cause not one of them has had a real news confernce
or answered real questions. When you are afraid of your posititions
and have no convictions, it is pretty daunting the idea of facing a
followup questions during one of the debates, er, uh, network
sponsored press confreneces

McCain is an idiot. There are issues from McCain's past that will be
brought up if he somehow becomes the Republican nominee.


That's too bad. He's probably the only candidate who's suggested using the
bully pulpit to ask Americans to make sacrifices in order to reduce our
dependence on oil. All the rest are pussies in this regard.


You or someone else will now say that McCain wants to "control what you
buy", but that's bull****.


One wonders who "Bert" supports. My guess would be the deadhead, Fred

What cracks me up is the MSM pushing Huckabee and McCain, all they
want is to have the weakest candidate run against Hillary, they have
zero credibility.. And they complain about FOX because they allow both
sides a pulpit...

I don't see where the MSM is pushing Huck or McCain. Huckabee has built
up quite a bit of strength in the Iowa polling, and we'll see how that
translates on caucus day. I read where he was also doing well in one of
the Carolinas. Apparently he does well among the simple-minded religious
fundamentalist Republicans. He can have them, all of them.

If he is the GOP nominee, he will be slaughtered by either Hillary or
Obama.

I like McCain because unlike *all* the other GOP wannabe's, he has some
national experience, understands foreign policy, and is opposed to
torture. The rest of the GOP pack knows no more about foreign policy
than I do, and that is a scary proposition.

Of course, Americans seem to like foreign-policy idiots in the White
House. We have one there now. Bush knew nothing about foreign policy
when he got into office and now, after nearly seven years, it is obvious
he still knows nothing.

Is that a problem?

I think they are just trying to whip up some interest and get people
to watch this train wreck


After the CNN, PBS debate debacle there should really be no doubt that
they along with MSNBC are actively trying to elect a democrat in 2008
(should I tell you her name?) and with that, supporting a weak
republican would fall right in line. The Clintons are known for their
thousands of lawyers and investigators and more likely feel they have
enough dirt and controversy on him to sink a presidential bid, I am
sure the media outlets I noted plus most others were in on the
meeting
