No longer McCain's party That was yesterday's qualifications Grand Slam "No way,no how,no John McCain" The Hillary Factor and why Excellent Choice Nuance v Steadfast Start the real campaign Glad to be back Vacation bound....Destination...Chicago October 07 November 07 December 07 January 08 February 08 March 08 April 08 May 08 June 08 July 08 August 08 September 08 John Edwards & Barack Obama went straight for the jugular in going after Hillary. They attacked the vote on calling the Iranian Revolutionary Council a terrorist organization. Saying it will give this president the excuse he needs to go to war with Iran. Hillary’s inconsistent answers were exposed on social security and at the end of the debate she agreed with New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer's controversial plan to give driver's licenses to illegal immigrants but then a minute later started backtracking. Now Bill Clinton was a master at being evasive but her facial expressions and demeanor showed she is no Bill Clinton. Will this debate change the numbers? I don’t know. I think what was really exposed last night was status quo positions of the front runner. How can my party complain about the secrecy in the Bush Administration if Hillary does not turn over all her documents? I understand it gives the other candidates an unfair advantage, because she will be the only candidate required to do this. But if this lack of transparency is going to stop, someone has to take the lead. The other is lobbyist money; Hillary has out raised all the candidates of both parties in lobbyist money from Wall Street, defense department, and insurance and drug companies. Some might see it as success but really it business as usual. Somehow we must have a leader to take us to public financing because these lobbyist have too much influence. I am getting suspicious as to why the Bush Administration is getting their way on the latest NSA spying bill. Did the telecommunication lobbyist have something to do with it? I don’t know. This may sound like a slam on Hillary but it really isn’t, it just exposes some of her weakness in a primary. Great leaders learn form mistakes and they don’t usually repeat them. Constructive criticism will only make a person stronger.

Robertson endorses Giuliani
Robertson endorses GiulianiWhen I first heard this, I couldn’t stop laughing. The man who agreed with Falwell when Falwell stated that the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks were caused by “pagans, abortionists, feminists, gays, lesbians, the American Civil Liberties Union and the People For the American Way.” Now he endorsed the mayor of that evil city. lol I would love to see the look on Pat Robertson’s face when Moveon.org makes that commercial showing Rudy in a dress. Underneath the caption will read" is this the man you want to protect your country”? Today Fred Thompson got the endorsement of the National Right to Life even thou he did work for a pro-choice group. Thompson has said it was wrong for the congress to intervene in the Terry Schiavo case, I agree with him but it was the National Right to Life who were protesting this case. Go figure. That leaves Mike Huckabee or Mitt Romney eagerly awaiting Dr.James Dobson endorsement. A Mormon and a bottom tier candidate. The evangelicals will not endorse Ron Paul because of his anti-war stance. Can you believe that? Oh well, I will watch the heathen party (lol) debate tomorrow night to see what my candidates will do when they become president. One thing for sure I will cast my vote proudly and not resort to holding my nose giving all kinds of excuses of why I voted for Rudy, Mitt, or Fred. 3 comments from 3 users

Strange day it is not often that I agree with a Ron Paul supporter and a social conservative in the same day…..lol First Ron Paul has a lot of out of the mainstream positions but he stands on them so I will always say he is a man of principal. Far be for me to give the GOP advice, but unless they go back to being a kinder and gentler, pro family party of fiscal conservatives it will go away like the Whig Party. posted by

I have known for a LONG while Pat Robertson was a few fries short of a Happy Meal this just seals the deal. It is rather comical when a Southern Preacher throws his lot in with a pro-gay, pro-abortion Liberal Lawyer from New York. Actually Maryann I think the real difference between Guiliani and Hillary is Hillary has a bigger pair! LOL

Hello Mike, I agree with you that it was quackery for Robertson to endorse Guiliani. Is Robertson nuts? Guiliani SHOULD stand for everything that Robertson is against- serial marriages, hypocritical postition on abortion to begin with.
I think that Rudy is Hillary in pants when it comes to social issues. I don't trust the man. Believe it or not, I'd rather see HRC in the White House than Rudy. Four years of Hillary should make the Reps. realize that they can't abandon their pro-life base by nominating a quasi-Republican.
