I here you. I gave it additional though and asked myself if Barack hadn't
one the nomination, I would I vote Republican if they put Michael Steele on
the ticket? Hell No! We just have to hope that white women show the
political maturity that black folks have shown throughout the years.

But D so can a raving lunatic on the street, not that McCain is a raving lunatic.....but talking softly and steadily sometimes takes more than posturing.

We better give Bill his standing ovation and chants, if only to ensure his Leonine ego will be placated.

We love you Bill, we love you Bill, now it's time for you to leave....

Heh

Fiorina has a professional career that should be a dream to attack. She ran that company into the ground, destroyed thousands of careers...oh yeah, bring it on.

It's about ISSUES. I don't care who McCain choses as a running mate. If Mc
cain were to pimp a women it will be seen for what it is, a ploy. He is known misogynist and no one will be fooled beyond the already lost and turned out. Stop the distracting memes.

No way it prevents Biden from being an attack dog except in a debate w/ his counterpart. He can bite McCain's ass till he needs new teeth.
Fiorina damn near destroyed HewlettPackardCompaq w/ her top down autocratic style. The Hewletts had to come out of the garage to get rid of her.
Hutchinson is undistinguished as a Senator.

If McCain picks a pro-choice running mate...buh-bye right wing evangelicals.

It is real easy to get bent out of shape about Bush, elitism and educational policy. In the case of the military joining up, and w/ all that entails, has always been a way to get an education and/or skills especially AfricanAmericans. Remember that white people lynched AfricanAmerican soldiers upon their return after WWI

Growing buzz is that McCain is picking a woman, either Kay Bailey Hutchinson or Carla Fiorina, the former moderate on abortion rights and the latter either moderate or pro-choice. It's difficult to believe that Senator Obama didn't weigh this possibility when deciding to not pick Hillary, but it's difficulty to see how he can check-mate this. It effectively castrates Biden who was picked to be an attack dog. He can't attack a woman. And with both of them not being rabid pro-lifers, it would be difficult to cast them as "traitors" to their gender.

I know Senator Obama made his decision based on how he wanted to govern, but you gotta' win before you govern. Damn!

"Barack could stub his big toe and people would have a problem with it." That's the point! As someone said, I think Bill Maher, Republicans have a talent for making a big deal out of nothing, and Democrats have a talent for not being able to make a big deal out of something. Why give them the ammunition to make a big deal out of nothing. The media, the echo chamber, is not Obama's friend. If you watched coverage earlier today, they were gleefully pushing this story rather than focusing on this non-story.

LMAO! I was actually thinking a the bed of a pick-up truck. Seriously, it's endemic of the large problem of the them stepping all over their message or success by giving the GOP a weapon of distraction, which they are experts.

I flip...er push the button...between C-span and MSNBC because I want to see Rachel slap Pat and see Keith and Tweety tear up. I also want to see the speeches. CNN and Fox hold no NO appeal for me.

Rob M - no need to rehash this again. Both D and S know this information already as we discussed it quite a few times on JJP.

We get it, they know it . . . . just let it go.

You'll let us know when your book comes out, because you describe things with such vividness.

With bamboo shoots and all.

Sorry was that over the line? Well I spent five years in a home that wasn't my own eating rice and surrounded by people who were my enemies.

Then I moved from that rental.

Heh
