Regardless of your political persuasion, you have to admit that the
Democratic candidate selection process is boring and bland compared to the
antics on the Republican side.


Rudy's ad (response to Huckabee's) has got to be a classic. I don't know if
he's serious or if it's a parody.


LOL

Did you see Hillary on the Today Show a couple of days ago? She was
unresponsive to their question about Bill's statement that "electing
Obama would be rolling the dice". When pressured to answer what that
meant, she came unglued! It's no wonder they protect her from the
hard questions... she can't handle them. Not the person I want as my
President.


Obama was next, and he simply blew Hillary out of the water. He's
like Bill way back when. He's got his act down... smoooth, baby.


It has been a standard practice for Hillary for the last 10 years. She
will not, does not answer any questions that are not preselected. She
is why the whole "boycott Fox news" thing got started, it was to
protect Hillary. BTW, yesterday, Hillary got caught with another plant
in the audience asking her if she was a Christian.. Turns out the lady
is another Clinton operative. It's just crazy, she can't face a
reporter, how is she going to face the pres of Iran??- Hide quoted text -

Sorry to burst your anti-Democrat bubble, but they ALL use preselected
questioning. And they all have plants in the audience if they think
for one second they can get away with it.


I often wonder how much David Gregory, Helen Thomas, et al, get paid to be
plants for Bush.

The problem with the whole process, from beginning to end, is that the
folks willing to sell out enough and do all the dirty crap required to
win either the primary or the general election are *not* the sort of
people who should be leading anything, except maybe the inmate's glee
club at the appropriate penal institution.

Our representative republic isn't all that much different from the
parliamentary system the New England colonists rebelled against. Major
difference is that our aristocrats have to steal more and much faster
because they are subject to recall by the people. Other than that,
once in office politicians all behave about the same.

Sorry, but neither party has a shred of moral credibility anymore; and
the more that each side insists its the One True Political Faith and
the other side is a bunch clueless and devious idiots the farther from
moral credibility each side moves.

The Chuck of yore re-emerges! Well said.

It's astounding that only one senator was really willing to put his
nuts on the line when telecom immunity was about to pass.

It's the system. It takes so much money to run a campaign that they
have no choice but to align themselves with powerful interests -- who
will no doubt extract a price for the support.

Broken system that needs to be replaced.

And who's fault is that?

I would posit that we deserve what we get.

I keep waiting for Hillary!'s head to explode from the pressure of not
be able to say what she really thinks because she knows she wouldn't
be Senator of the Outhouse if she did.

Seriously. She is so obviously on the edge of a total meltdown that
you have to serously wonder if she's qualified to do anything. It's
entertaining to watch her keep from exploding.

Although I appreciate his vision and candor, he's got about the same
chance as Nader. The Republicans wouldn't let a real conservative
anywhere near the pulpit.

Proving she's human. Whomever isn't rattled by the stupdity that
passes for reporting (save a few) must be made from a type of rubber
compound that supports life.

I frequently run across these beings inhabiting American corporations.

If you ain't got the tools, don't play the game... although I do admit
it would be somewhat entertaining to see her head explode Just not
in the oval office...
