Vacuum
January 7, 2008Edwards: Looks like a guy who sells vacuum cleaners on a door-to-door provision basis. I don’t trust him.
Obama: I just don’t know what to think of this guy. “Birds flew off from the fall-out shelter, eight miles high and falling faaaaaaaaaast…”
Clinton: She looks like a strong woman to me, and as far as I’m concerned, we give more women a try in power. We let men have a go at it for thousands of years, and let’s face it, us men made a bloody mess of it. Oh, and Hillary gets you Bill.
And we all love Bill. So vote Hillary, please, Americans.
Romney all the way.

I’d trust Ron Paul more than I’d trust Hilary, or any other candidate, not by much though.

It’s wishful thinking to believe that women do things any differently to their male counterparts when in power.

I just saw on the news, Hillary’s bringing in Carville & some other old Bill Clinton strategist, she won’t be any different from what Bill was. And we don’t need that again.

O yeah, women in power are sooo much more humane.

“Romney all the way”
A democrat is going to win anyway, republicans stand no chance this year. Not that’s going to be any different though.

So I take it you like America’s current foreign policies?

No more Clinton-same-as-Bush please.
Edwards: no. I’ll never vote for a malpractice lawyer. Bloodsucking jerk raising all our medical bills. Obama? Perhaps. Little experience and a lot of talk. Do I want to elect someone on how good he can smooth talk?
Huckabee? Campaigning as a Christian leader when pretty much all the other candidates are Christian as well? Is he saying he will be more affected in his decisions by Christian doctrine and mores? In a secular nation, that makes me want to keep him away from the White House. McCain? Maybe. Little old (retrospectively that wouldn’t have mattered with Dole).
Romney? Wouldn’t mind. Been accused of flipflopping, but as with Kerry it’s a stupid accusation. Nothing wrong with changing one’s mind if one feels compelled to by better understanding. I would prefer that to someone who sticks by a policy even after he decides it’s wrong just to avoid charges of flipflopping. Playing to the polls? What’s wrong with following the voice of the people, the people by whom one is elected and whom one represents? Our government is elected to represent us, and if a leader pays attention to polls, yay.
Preference in order: Romney, Obama, McCain, Clinton, Edwards and Huckabee tie for last. Maybe Huckabee is slightly laster. But there’s nothing preventing me from “flip flopping” if I should come to understand something better. FYI: Romney already won my state’s caucuses, which has been all but ignored by the media since I don’t live in Iowa or New Hampshire.
It’s be so much easier to ignore all this, especially since my vote means squat. Less time wasted on the internet and fewer people telling me my political leanings suck (would be true no matter what they are). Hmm..

I’m voting for Ron Paul or Obama.
Hillary just “rubs me the wrong way.” She just seem so fake. When she almost broke down crying, it seemed to me to be her first real show of emotion.
Another reason I won’t vote for her is because if she wins it would be either a Clinton or Bush in the Whitehouse from 1989-2012. I’m not voting for royalty.
Plus, do you know how much Bill Clinton would cheat win he has free time ?
