SO MUCH TROUBLE IN THE WORLD

When pigs fly

I am a liberal Democrat, and a resident of the State of New York. However, I can tell you right now this is not the face of the next President of the United States.




I hope we can all agree on this early on, and then get ourselves a strong contender for the 2008 race.

Ha! I read your post on Bloglines but the image didn't show up so I had to come to your blog to check it out. How did I know it would be HRC?

Just remember that Barry Williams had sex with Florence Henderson on the Brady Bunch set.

Then you will be begging for a Gore/Edwards ticket.

So does that mean George Clooney for president ? or..er..get back Dr. Banshee Dean ? And um, is it ok now to say the word "liberal" ?

Or....what exactly is your take?

I think she will not win because she unifies the Republican party, in exactly the same way George Bush unifies the Democrats.

She is absolutely hated by right wingers.

Just count your lucky stars that many hard core Republicans also are not fond of John McCain.

If he runs in 2008, he will be the one to beat.

It has nothing to do with having a woman in the White House. Please don't try to turn this into a sexist issue. There are many women who would make good presidents ... who don't have the last name of Clinton.

I don't vote for a president based on what is between their legs, and neither should you.

If you want to smash the glass ceiling wide open, support Carol Moseley Braun. She is an amazing woman who will never be President of the United States, because someone forgot to tell the southern states that blacks are equal now.

What moderate swing voters voted for John Kerry?
Zero ... nada ... zilch ... none.
Karl Rove made sure of that.

Jesus ... I nearly didn't vote for Kerry. I know avocados with more personality than he has.
With that as a given, he still carried more than 50% of the popular vote.

Charisma is also an important quality to have. Hillary comes off as a pissed off librarian.

Who is most "electable" is the name of the game. That's why they call it an election. That is why we have primaries. This is true in the Republican party and the Democratic party.

You need to choose a candidate who represents as many voices in your own party, and at the same time is tolerable enought to swing moderate members of the other. Especially in an environment of a polarized US population.

Mmm avocados.

Ah yes, the ever sought after "swing voters". With neither party holding a true majority of the voters in this country (51% is NOT a mandate), it's incredibly important that a candidate appeal to these folks without losing their "base".
There just seems to be something about Hilary that makes right wing conservatives foam at the mouth. I often wonder if they would be so crazed about her if she were a "he."

Peter, I must agree. I think a woman president is a fine idea but not hillary. I miss golda.

Golda Meir was an amazing woman and an incredible Prime Minister for Isreal. God knows they could use her right now.

Anne - "He's" neither man nor woman?

Freudian slip woman ... Freudian slip.

Sigmund would tell you that you secretly want to be led by that yellow feathered penis.

Then again ... Freud did a lot of blow.

hopefully your next president won't look like her or Bush ;)

I know Bush can't be president again but same personality could be found in different body
