Elections - October 2007

Even former President Ford seemed to also think so:

WASHINGTON - Jerry Ford wasn't sure Hillary Clinton could be elected President, but he was absolutely certain which Republican had the strongest shot at stopping her: Rudy Giuliani.

"That would be a great contest between Hillary and Rudy," the 92-year-old former President told a reporter in May 2006.

"I think Giuliani is an electrifying guy," he added. "He's a great speaker. He's had a good record of winning in New York City, and he can be tough."

Debates are so great because they show the true political individual and their views. The debates are truly what I base my votes on. Are debates what makes you decide who to vote for our President?

I think he seems like a good candidate yet I hear nothing about him in the news. I'd prefer him over the other two knuckle heads.

Isn't a Liberal environment minister an odd thing. They have denied climate change for 10 years, decided it's not in the economy's best interest to do anything about, they didn't want to sign Koyoto, sorry yes they did, sorry again, no they didn't. They allowed the Pulp mill, defy Freedom of Information (FOI) laws to allow access to a study in the Great Barrier Reef being released before the election because it's so bad!

I now understand what a Liberal Environment Minister does!!

They makes sure the environment doesn't get in the road of big business and the economy. Has there ever been a more pointless position in a Liberal government.

I was looking at the 08 polls at cnn.com and it puts Clinton at the top at nearly 46% and Ron Paul at only 1%. I did a lot of internet research on independent internet polls and they put Clinton at roughly 5% with Paul leading at 32%.
I realize that internet polls allow for all voters foreign and domestic but that can't account for the HUMONGOUS difference.
Are we being lied to? If so how far up does this lie go?

Considering her record she seems to waffle as much as flip-flop Kerry.
-Denouncing Walmart as evil. Yet she was the First Woman board member for Walmart (1898-1992)
-From 1982 to 1992 she chaired the Arkansas Educational Standards Committee and during this time period Arkansas went from being ranked in the mid 30's to being #49 in the Nation.
-She voted to Go to war with Iraq but want's to pull out and surrender before anythings finished.
-She' already stated she wants to raise Taxes.

Why would anyone vote for her? Seriously!!!

Why don't they just stick to the issues? And is it just me, or do you find that Republicans tend to do this more often than Democrats?

She avoids the tough questions, what will she do about social security?
Why would Clinton try to answer this question ? She has no clue how to answer and neither does Obama.

If I was Obama , and I was going to ask Clinton this , or any other question, I'd try to make sure I had an answer in case someone asked me the same thing.....
These two are rediculous!

This journalist seems to capture something very essential about Australian society and culture, especially as it has been in the last three or four decades.

It's also interesting the guy who wrote it is an immigrant ~ from the US, nice cultural comparison stuff ...

What do you think?

Like maybe with just a 2 party system, that is 99% controlled by lobbyists/special interests, it really doesn't matter who you vote for in the US (unless of course you belong to the special interest/lobbying group).

It is clear that they want us to believe Israel have the right to invade lands and posses WMD.
It is clear that they want us to believe that Islam and catholicism are wrong.
It is clear that they don't want to face the fact we lost war on drugs and war on Indians!
It is clear that they want to criminalize undocumented immigrants and ignore corruption in the U.S side.
It is clear that they want us to believe that Bush is doing well and that republicans are conservatives despite they act so liberal!

I know that most conservatives are just that conservative we don't like to scream about politics or how we are losing our rights and most of the time we just take things as they come. not saying that we are wimps because we are not, but most of the time we are unheard because the other side out screams us, meaning that liberals show up in great numbers. what I am trying to get at is, isn't it about time that the conservative side is heard loud and clear before we are completely shut down and shut up by those trying to hijack our country

Such children overwhelmingly grow up to become voting democrats. Is it possible that Repubs have calculated that denying them health are will reduce democratic votes via infant mortality?

http://hillaryhsuclinton.angelfire.com/HILL.htm

She's clearly mentally deranged, and has been her entire life...when reading her personal letters and her socialist thesis, it's very obvious that Hillary is a psychopath with delusions of grandeur over the little people (that would be YOU), and she didn't even write her own books or speeches because she's a horrible writer. She's also got sociopathic tendencies because she has absolutely no problem with spewing lies. You see, the end justifies the means to a nutjob like Hillary.
