Whoever has the biggest war chest will most likely win.

IMHO - None of the boys or girl on capital hill have a clue. Even your boy who drove to work - what a patriot.

No matter who is at the helm, we can't let the terrorist get $$ from Iraqs oil. That is why we're there.

By the time they get to the upper levels they are jaded if not when they started. Its the system and world they become part of.... that needs to change.... don`t know if its possible.

I wouldn't say they all suck, but a lot of them and perhaps even a majority certainly do.

But these are the people who heavily influence our day to day lives, at least indirectly. Apathy is no answer.

More term limits could be part of the problem, but I'd argue that greater transparency in Government could really help.

Hope you enjoy that bitch Hillary instead.

Only someone from the far left will get nominated by the Dems. Any kind of moderate Dem has no chance in hell. Just look at what happened to Lieberman in Conn. If you're not a hard core leftist, you will not get the nomination. Thats already been determined. And America will not elect a hardcore leftest to be president, it will never happen.

I can hear it now from our friends on the Left "Terrorists already have control of Iraq". But in their next sentence they will claim there are no Terrorists in Iraq.

It would never happen, this is just more right-wing rhetoric intended to scare the pants off of you.

More importantly, it's not supported by historical or observable facts!

Although, if the Presidential election were to fall to a Democrat, Joe Biden would be my vote too. It would be better than another Clinton or Kerry!!

Ok, you're 1/2 way there...

Now would you rather have Biden or a GWB clone
