This talking point cracks me up. The military has donated little to any presidential campaign thus far including Paul’s. When I first heard this talking point a few months ago Paul had raised a whopping $ 35,000 from people that claimed a military connection.

The military doesn’t typically donate so any amount is a big deal. Compare it to the fact that Paul received more than the self-proclaimed “war-hero”, McCain and it looks even better.

Calling Paul “divisive” is a bit of a stretch…even for you.

I think you must have been sleeping the last 6 months.

He’s not?

Sure seems to me that discussion degenerates into one camp stumping for Paul while the other argues against him whenever Paul’s name comes up. It often sounds like angels arguing against demons over God.

The only other politician that divides people quite like that is George W. Bush.

Just in case no one noticed, Romney cried too.

lixy,

She asked him this question “Did you ever tear up?”

He answered under what circumstances he teared up.

Every one of these links you send, reminds me of who you fear. It also makes discussion of any other candidate rather superfluous.

If our resident radical Islamist fears Rudy, he’s the man for the job.

A) Lixy hardly qualifies as a radical islamist.

B) Radical Muslims HAVE NO FEAR. That’s why they’re so fucking hard to fight. I’m sorry, but if you’re willing to die for something, there’s not much else we can threaten.

C) Rudy is as done as Hilary is. Neither have momentum, and most of the GOP has caught on that Rudy has nothing to say about domestic policy, and that every other word coming out of his mouth has to do with “terrorists” or “9/11”.

Hillary is leading Obama in a close one. She has lots of money and is building momentum. Do not count her out yet.

Beowolf,

Sorry, friend. Everything you just wrote is incorrect.

Wow, I am shocked by this. People are voting for a potential President who breaks down on the campaign trail. I mean, this process alone made her lose her composure, yet they’re voting for her. It’s just odd, to me.

Ok. I eat my words from C. Heh. Hillary ain’t dead yet. To bad.

How ever… don’t you spend a lot of time trying to prove Muslims ARE crazy?? (JeffR)

McCain’s making a come back. Very interesting.

First, this post is NOT in defense of Clinton.

I think Hillary’s win tonight simply shows how much the media wants to influence the election. The most recent poll before today had Obama 13% ahead of Clinton. Apparently, the MSM has jumped on the Obama bandwagon just like everyone else. Perhaps the first black president would make a better story than the first woman president, or perhaps Obama is simply the trendy choice and discussing him boosts ratings. But, when it came down to it, Clinton was still more popular amongst the New Hampshire people, despite the media’s wishes.

Uh, what? What’s the JeffR reference about? And, what do Muslims have to do with this? You’re welcome to try make the case that I’ve spent time on here trying to label muslims as crazy.

I have said over, and over again, that the Jihadists are a minority. Unfortunately, a rather large minority, of a very large group of people, are extremists. The treatment of women, homosexuals, apostates, normal muslims, and religious minorities testify to this.

I’m puzzled at your response.

What are you babbling about now?

I don’t judge groups.

I judge lixy.

I think you are wrong and she will still win. Not that I mind either way. Clinton, Obama, shit, even Giuliani or that old firebrand McCain, they all seem good after the 8 years of incompetence and world-fucking of President Bush.
The only way is up Baby For you and me now!

PS this is my first post in the Politics section for a looong time. I have been so depressed due to the Iraq War and other issues, I couldn`t take it…

Not done yet, apparently. But the north east is full of die-hard democrats. Voting on family traditions rather than issues and sense. It’s how Ted “the killer” Kenedy keeps getting reelected. So there is hope this is isolated. It’s a small hope, but it’s hope. I really hope people aren’t that dumb.

Man I’m nervous as hell now seeing that Hillary has won the primary and I’m wondering if Barack has lost some momentum. Granted I’m probably overreacting, but still I’m wondering. I’m going to be on pins and needles come Nevada next week. Can somebody please hold my hand and tell me that Obama still has a chance to win this thing? Please?

Never underestimate the power of stupidity! Assume the worst, hope for the best.
I am voting in the democratic primary this year. I have to do my part to save this country. There is no point in going from bad to worse.

Hillary is backed by Rothschild money, as I’ve pointed out before. Remember when Hillary got 27 million in one quarter?

They’re all actually beholden to someone like that, unless you’re someone like Romney. He’s so rich he can’t be influenced by our ‘Vandals’ (as Lincoln put it). Maybe I’ll vote for him.

I’m telling you Pat, Hillary has no chance to win the general election. Obama, on the other hand, is unbeatable if he wins the democratic nomination.
