#1 He may be making points with the pack of fools who constitute the Dummocratic Party, but what I'm worried about is who the Pubs can nominate that presents a clear choice over either him or The Hill. Fred seems to be fading away. Hunter and Tancredo are history. I won't vote for the turncoat McClain. Romney...no. Giuliani,mmmm would be difficult. Huckleberry...the more he talks, the less likely I could vote for him. Dismal, simply dismal.

#3 Agreed Woozle, perhaps we can get Canada to annex us and then we'd have Harper for prez.

#4 The Hil vs Obama conflict is exposing the fault lines of the Donk gender/race/labor coalition.

Hope it continues.

#5 I once thought it was suicidal of Obama to simply smile, talk inanely of change, offer no concrete proposals, and play rope-a-dope deflection to nonstop Clinton innuendo and rumor-mongering.

It worked up here for Deval Patrick...

#6 That's right. Just stay home and don't vote Repub because you aren't going to get 100% of what you want.

No, instead, you'll get 14% of the private sector (healthcare) converted to socialism (probably forever), an endless stream of overt and covert efforts to ban firearms (probably forever), and two to three Ruth Bader-Ginsberg clones on the Supreme Court.

I find flaws with all of the Repub frontrunners. But to stay home to prove your anger or ideological purity is civilizational suicide.

#7 The repub race is very interesting and there are some very good candidates (some not so good too...ie the ones that the dems are promoting). They need our support and direction. They need to win and then have their feet held to the fire. Having Obama or that witch in the white house will do serious damage to this country for years to come.

#8 face it, all of the republican candidates are better than obama and Hillary. I'd even prefer McCain, to either one of them (and I really dislike him now). Hunter is my first choice then Fred, Rudy, Romney, Huckabee and McCain. They not be perfect, but they are so much better than Hillary the mentally unstable tyrant and Obama, the wolf in sheeps clothing.
