Georgia will go Republican as usual. Lot of electoral votes there.

Florida could go either way. I predict a LOT of campaigning in

Florida.

I agreee that the South is the most un-American part of the country, and the

That would please me just fine. You're wrong. It's the Democrats' to lose

this year, but I'd be very happy with Edwards.

No President can win without the South. He must either take it or it

has to fragment (as in 1968).

 

I'll bet Georgia will go for Huckabee.

I hope so. It's less that I like Obama than that the GOP needs to be

kicked out of the WH for at least a term without being replaced by a

Clinton. Two families have occupied the WH for twenty years now. I

wouldn't want to make it 24 or 28.

And, I think, more enthusiasm from the Dems in general. Their choices

are shaping up nicely, the field of candidates is evolving a more

unified message. They all have some good ideas but I'm really getting

tired of Hillary answering questions by noting what "We" did in the

nineties.

I don't think so. This doesn't mean the won't get it, but will they

get it early enough and figure out the way around it.

 

Noticed Romney wagging his finger at those who would attempt character

assasination or name calling even as he made false claims about their

positions.

 

I gotta say, the debates during this cycle are really well done for

the most part. I thought the Fox network ones I saw were more

shouting matches, but their specialty is controversy creation. The

first ABC one with George annoyed me. He reduced it to the level of

sunday morning television and so directed and restricted discussion

that the candidates really didn't get much chance to show themselves.

The CNN Youtube ones were much better and saturday's ABC/FACEBOOK/WMUR

debates the best yet. Everybody had a comfortable chair and it was

like a discussion among friends in the living room over coffee.

The right stayed home. The GOP lost in 2006 every bit as much as the

Dems won it. The Dems aren't going to get anything done or gain any

power as long as they keep picking up Republican rejection. They're

going to have to take some positive actions after this year and they

have to succeed.

Lol! Point taken. Still, there are always exceptions and Lieberman

was a special case. Consensus seems to be that he lost his primary in

a public fury over his Iraq support. But in the end, the voters

realized that Joe was their guy. He was a powerful Senator with

experience and a national reputation who brought his State much from

Washington so they re-elected him over the guy many of them had voted

for in the primary.

Lieberman won for two reasons:

 

1. The Republicans completely abandoned their nominee. If there had been

two Bush supporters contending in the rest, Lamont would have won easily.

 

2. Lamont made the incredible error of allowing the first time most people

saw him -- the night he won the primary -- to be with him sharing a stage

with Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. I believe he would have weathered any

controversy over Jackson, who does have some legtimacy. But Sharpton is a

racist demagogue who ought to be treated as a pariah, not welcomed as a

supporter.

 

If Obama gets the nomination -- and he could do it -- he should make a point

of cutting off Sharpton and making it clear he will have no place at the

table in an Obama presidency.

By definition a "bum" is UNWANTED.

 

Lieberman was CHOSEN OVER the OTHER candidate THEREFORE he was NOT unwanted.

Conventional wisdom says you're correct. However, conventional wisdom also

said NOBODY could get them out for a caucus or a primary and Buckwheat did

that...

 

This just in: "officials are predicting will be RECORD TURNOUTS for the

first-in-the-nation presidential primary." I'll post the whole story

next...

Counting his ENTIRE LIFE, how many presidential primaries and caucuses has

Breck Gurl won?

 

Zero.

But given a choice between Clinton and any Republican (McCain and

over anybody. Anything to keep the GOP out of the White House.

Since Iowa, Georgia's voter registration offices have been much busier

than usual. Partly it's because our primary is earlier than last year

but it's also due in part directly to Obama's win in Iowa. His

supporters have apparently realized that he could be electable.

 

His biggest problem is the state delegates already comitted.

California for example has 13 superdelegates already slated to support

Clinton. And unlike in the general, it's not winner take all. Each

candidate gets a share of the state's delegates.

 

Do I really think Obama is going to pull it off? No. Oh, you never

can tell this early, but I still think Clinton will be viewed as more

able to get things done (effect change) than the young Obama. He can

try again when she's done.

 

rambling on. . .

 

You know, something we don't see discussed much is the effect of our

Presidential choice on other nations' attitudes towards us. Let's

assume that a Democrat in the White House manages to create enough

good will around the planet to do us some good. Remember those

Chinese connections the right is always bitching about with the

Clintons? What if Hillary manages to talk the Chinese into buying

dollars again?

 

What if the very presence of a black man or a woman in the White House

convinces other nations that America has shifted hard left and they

start treating us better?

 

I think Americans make a terrible mistake when they judge the value of

a President solely on his/her ability to run the domestic economy and

kill foreigners with our military. We need to be aware of and take

into consideration the effect our Presidential choice has on the

planet.

 

Our economy could improve and our military become less needed simply

by getting along better with the other kids in the room.

No we don't. We, America, IS the planet. America is the ENGINE that drives

The surprise was the same in Iowa. The Pollsters seem to be missing

big time this year. They had Obama with a double digit lead. Instead

Clinton won with a 2% lead. They each ended up with the same number

of delegates. Obama's big problem is the superdelegates already

committed to Clinton. California alone has already given her 13.

 

So far Clinton, Obama and Edwards have 183, 78 and 52 delegates

respectively.

 

Obama doesn't have to merely take more votes than she gets, he has to

also make up for the delegates she was assured of going in.
