DeLay is a crooked little turd who got a well-deserved flush down the drain. It appears DeLay thinks Hillary will be elected in 2008 and will tab Obama as her veep: http://www.freemarketnews.com/WorldNews.asp?nid=28995 Golly! Whoda thunk DeLay could imagine something so original? Of course he goes on to blame it on the media working in concert with a "liberal coalition" run by Carville, Blumenthal, Begala and Ickes. He also says Obama has the record of a "leftist-Marxist". Well, to give credit where it's due, he's right about that - Obama's record as an elected US legislator is very similar to that of Karl Marx...or Henry VIII... Chuck Vance (of course this could all just be scare tactics on his part) Yeah, he's scared his silly-assed little blog managed to con the only 100 suckers out of 52 bucks it'll ever be able to con...

Well this alone assures him of my vote! I am not sure that a socialist in the Whitehouse, be it Hillary or Obama, would be beneficial to this nation. The expansion of the failure of Great Society, and allowing every group to claim civil rights recognition, can only polarize this nation to a new higher level. As for Obama being a moderate (the often claim of the major media), consider the following: http://www.adaction.org/ The ADA Today Barack Obama (Illinois) Liberal Quotent (LQ) Rating: 100 (out of 100) The rating of 100 is considered [perfect]. From the ADA newsletter: " Liberal Quotient (LQ) is the rating of a Member of Congress determined by the percentage of votes cast in support of liberal policies, measured against the number of votes counted. The votes selected cover the full spectrum of domestic, foreign, economic, military, environmental and social issues. We often chose procedural votes, amendments, motions to table, or votes on rules for debate. These votes can reveal true attitudes obscured in final votes. " And from the opposite side of the political spectrum: http://www.conservative.org/archive2/2008potus.asp The American Conservative Union gave Obama a score of 8 (also out of 100). Even Hillary managed a 12 from this organization. |

Even better if they can get him in a TX state facility. Thus demonstrating your and Op's political acumen. If an equally-crooked nest-feathering partisan ****ass tries to put the little turd in a Texas prison (esp. on trumped-up charges of which he's likely not guilty), it makes a martyr out of him (and one with a legit outcry). Let him run around with his cakehole open, and he marginalizes himself even further than he already is. There's no worse punishment for a creature like DeLay. In the event any real evidence of his actual crimes surface, let a USA (as non-partisan as possible) get him. R |

![]() wrote in message ... Or his Bears' pregame "announcement"... Not familiar with political humor, heh? If he joins up with McCain, they could both ignore whoever the opponents wind up being. If he goes with McCain, all this talk about his intellect will have been for naught. If it does wind up being he and Hillary in a contest for Dem nominee, Well which will be Pres and which will be VP? he won't need to "go negative" - the GOP and everyone else to the right of, oh, say, Michael Moore will do it for him. Well that is to be expected, I mean we are talking Dems. and Repubs., right? And speaking of idiots, This is not about you Rah. Hillary and the Clintonistas seem to be right on schedule to **** up Hillary's chances by continuing to do what they do - attempting to rat**** _anyone_, including the voters, that they see as "in the way." You reckon they shoot anyone in the face? If he's the Dem nominee, his objective negatives (no real experience, no real record at any level - no "yardstick"), Pretty much like the last two Ps'OTUS, right. I mean former governors aren't really qualified to hold the highest office in the land, right. But of course, politics ain't about qualifications. combined with subjective negatives (he's a Dem, he's too black, he's not black enough, he's not "liberal"/"conservative" enough, he's too "liberal"/ "conservative," he's too young, etc.), will likely combine to get him defeated THIS TIME if the GOP puts up anyone short of maybe Pat Robertson. Maybe he could get Colin Powell to run with him, he's got it all ya know. Of course the Republicans are likely to run someone just to the right of Satan, so they will have the best shot at getting their base vote anyway. If it's McCain, Obama's done. They are both, as pols go, good men, but McCain has the name and the record, and if he goes (really) negative on McCain, he's _really_ done. IMO, though, if they are steering their own ships, neither would go unduly (and subjectively) negative on the other. Yeah, wouldn't want to Swiftboat McCain the way Bush did. And of course McCains age certainly won't figure in. Remeber, he no Ronny Reagan. If he's smart, whether he joins McCain or not, he will take a page from his playbook: don't go (subjectively) negative _against anyone_ and be thought of as one of the "good guys" by the entire center. That a great and positive Republican strategy, right. And anyone wanna bet that Hillary (or her campaign) will bring up his skin color at least once? No, because neither will run this time out. Wanna bet on that? Op R |

The general election of the 2004 Senate race wasn't the "game", it was a foregone conclusion, the knock down drag out happened in the Democratic primary "Knock down drag out," huh? Yeah, it was a real down-to-the-wire nail-biter...what, 182% of the registered Dems voted for him, compared to the next-place guy, a Chicago legacycrook, who only got, what, 101%... as anyone who had even a cursory understanding of Illinois politics would well know.
