UNDISPUTED FACTS:

1. Hillary won in 17 large, mostly BLUE states (and 297 electoral college votes) Democrats have any realistic chance of winning %u2013 Arizona (10), Arkansas (6), California (55), Nevada (5), New York (31), New Jersey (15), Texas (34), Tennessee (11), Ohio (20), Florida (27), Michigan (17), Pennsylvania (21), Kentucky (8), New Mexico (5), Massachusetts (12), West Virginia (5), Indiana (11), Rhode Island (4), and Puerto Rico (Commonwealth).

2. She already proves she can take 297 electoral votes. To become president you need only 270.

3. These mostly BLUE states have the majority of the Electoral College votes - which determines the presidency.

4. Unfortunately, Obama won in mostly RED states where mostly GOP out number democrats 3:1 - so it''''s Gore, Kerry, and McGovern all over again. Even if Obama could win there - it''''s only 199 electoral votes.

Therefore, as we much as we once respected Obama, until he didn%u2019t offer Hillary the VP spot to unify the party, he is not going to beat McCain.

I was listening to a woman today, who claimed that we don''t know anything Obama, but that he hates America. She claimed that at least Hitler loved his country. So she would rather vote for Hitler. Racism is truly an amazing disease of the brain.

you want CHANGE? Change your party to Republican. MCCAIN 2008. Sorry, but not all Republicans are bad. In this case, John MCCAIN will bring positive change.

What a load of crapp, what are you saying?
not all Republicans are bad? so what! They still need to be held responsible for what has happened to this country since they took over.

"you want CHANGE? Change your party to Republican."
Yeah, and while I''m at it I''ll ask Larry Craig to escort my son to the airport.

"I feel really good about going through the weekend," Clinton said, which was about as far into the future as she would indulge anyone, despite the barrage of what-ifs and what-nows that loom over her every movement.

"I feel good because so many people react to my having stayed," she said, mentioning that she had just met a basketball coach on a rope line in Rapid City who thanked her for setting a good example for her team by not quitting until the final whistle.

In the interview, in San Juan on Sunday, Clinton said "finishing the job" was "fundamental to who I am and how I was raised," and added her customary note of defiance: "I''m very happy that I did despite rather difficult challenges by many who wanted this to end prematurely."



Clinton was raised by a lot better people than some Dem''s that are blaming her for this and using her as the scapegoat because Osama cannot pull it off.

Of course, she was raised by good people who stuck around and cared for their young... Republicans at that.

Unless Obama can overcome the relentless exposure methods perfected by the Republican machine, Obama is toast.

We are going to be entreated to a complete chronology of a person few know. Not only will we get the year by year, month by month activities; we will get all the sorted details. It promises to be much better than the Bill and Hillary show.

How rude! Using someone''s middle name so casually without the last name. Where are your manners?

%u201CNo self respecting woman should wish or work the success of a Party that ignores her self.%u201D Susan B. Anthony, 1872


That directed at the Republican Party has now turned against the Democrats and Susan we agree%u2026

Geez
After posting two George Carlin quotes I would have thought for sure that gopsoccermom would be outraged by the posting of such blasphemy. I figured some counter-baiting was in order since he /she is so into suckering others.

Okay... Just this once.

First you use Rasmussen. Second you spout all this stuff about party growth. Except for one problem, nowhere do you mention how rapidly Independent numbers are shrinking. I do understand why you are limited. My guess it is Rasmussen.

When participating in most of these polster''s questionaires have you ever noticed how resrticted an opinionated are they''re questionsaires? Then they have the nerve at the end to ask how they can better construct there polling questions, while never changing their format.

For some reason we Independents are invited to many polling organisations. Usually I find them as raggety as the Media. But... there must be a buck in it.

You know who I pray to? Joe Pesci. Two reasons; first of all, I think he''s a good actor. Okay. To me, that counts. Second; he looks like a guy who can get things done. Joe Pesci doesn''t *** around. In fact, Joe Pesci came through on a couple of things that God was having trouble with. For years I asked God to do something about my noisy neighbor with the barking dog. Joe Pesci straightened that cork-sucker out with one visit.

Very good point, i can hope it gets driven home to the people that need to hear it.

As to gopsoccermom, she''s just another dishonest poster put up to acting stupid by the phony neocon media.

gopsoccermom, how narrowminded are you? bet you can''t part your hair cause there''s not enough room. HE HAS NOT REJECTED JESUS. HE HAS REJECTED A CHURCH. A building is not a religion. It is just bricks, mortar, glass and shingles. Wherever you choose to worship God and Jesus can be a church. My church is in nature, which God created. He rejected an arena that the pastors and Priests used as a soapbox for their own selfish reasons - they wanted the 15 minutes of "fame" that the media gave them.

So, gopsoccermom, do you say out loud what you are going to write? Does it make sense to you? If not, don''t write it. If it does, then you need to get out into reality more.

I''ve begun worshipping the Sun for a number of reasons. First of all, unlike some other gods I could mention, I can see the Sun. It''s there for me every day. And the things it brings me are quite apparent all the time: heat, light, food, a lovely day. There''s no mystery, no one asks for money, I don''t have to dress up, and there''s no boring pageantry. And interestingly enough, I have found that the prayers I offer to the sun and the prayers I formerly offered to God are all answered at about the same 50-percent rate.
