Just a little reminder, Bush ain't running again.

I put some credence in an relatives viewpoint "they're overlooking the angry white men vote". In context, the angry white men are the rank and file of the American voters, the little (?) people out there who do not jump up and scream at everything that happens. They know no particular race, gender, religion, sexual preference. They work their jobs, have their problems, make do with what they can. They are the people that make this country great. They are not Hollywood, they are not folks that are entrenched at the public trough (like the existing professional political elite). They are not on welfare, they work their jobs, don't overextend their credit, make their house payments, drink their beer and watch tv, raise their kids and go fishing. You don't see them in the paper everyday, complaining on how the gov don't give them enough, or the current administration hasn't saved enough whales or polar bears. Falling back on guns and religion? Not by a long shot.

Maybe the sleeping giant has been awakened again. Just my opinion, of course.

Ry - you always get it!

just goes to show ya, can't believe everything you see and it's kinda important to pay attention to the details

I don't know who those other two folks you mentioned are!

I never said McSame was dumb. I have said variously that he finished almost last in his class, that he's flip-flopped on everything he believed in in order to get the nomination for President, that he's pandering to the farthest right wing fringe religious fanatics in selecting Palin as his running mate. Nowhere did I say he was dumb. He also has an explosive temper that doesn't seem at all related to the stress of the situation, example provided by his parents who said he would throw temper tantrums as a child and hold his breath until he passed out. A trait that I'm sure got him lots of stuff.

Pug! What will Putin do?????????

All this bickering, not on who is smarter, but who is less dumb.

Why don't we just have a vote-off in Novemeber, then a few pages of whining about the results, and we can go back to having fun. Just a thought.

I know what Putin is doing now, and that is running over our top notch administration. We are stretched so thin and have such low standing in the world that we can't even react to Georgia getting goaded into a conflict without looking stupid. Putin played us and won. Maybe we should have someone in office that might garner a teeny tiny bit more respect than who is currently running things. I'm sure the mayor of Wasilla, AK is it.

uh.............that was meant for the reaper (da utter two guys).

I know a lot of russians. A woman as attractive and gutsy as Palin would have Putin wrapped around her finger.

I'm sure the community organizer (and... can anyone spell ACORN) can desaddle Putin.

You're aware that sexual harassment is legal in Russia?
