I am also. I have been able to watch a few of the other one online.

For the Repbublicans, Iowa is a little different. Rudy has stayed away from Iowa so there is no real gage on the impact Iowa will have on him. At this point Romney is the front runner there but Huckabee is closing in on him. If Huckabee wins Iowa, I think Romney is sunk and this becomes a Rudy/Huckabee race. If Romney wins then it is Rudy/Romney.


One of these 5 will be the next president.

For the Dems Hillary has the highest negatives of anyone who has ever run for President. That is a very steep hill.

For Obama, he is very inexperienced and has been mistake prone, and African American. These are the two biggest things working against him.

For Mitt, he has been both for and against conservitiave positions, is a morman, and is a republican in a time where there is strong sentiment aginst the republcian party.

Rudy is seen by the conservitives and the Christian Right as being something other than what they (me) are. Besides being a Republcian, Rudy runs the risk of causing the Republican wing of the Republican party to stay home and not vote.

Huckabee will be painted as TOO Christian. He has also been soft on emmigration, and not quite as conservitive as some have thought. While he is too "Republican" to win the moderates in a time when many independant voters are turned off to Republcians; he is also not quite conservitive to jazz the base. he also has the lowest "Celebrity" appeal of any of the major candidates and I think may stand the least chance of winning (and this is the guy I am voting for).

I think the winner will be the one that the people think is the "lest bad" instead of the best option.

300,000,000 Americans, and this is the best we can do?

I guess I am going to be "throwing" my vote away with Paul, but he is the only candidate that I do not have to hold my nose to vote for.

It almost always comes down to that. Most of the best people are just too smart to get into this game, and that's sad.

Does Ron Paul still say the U.S. provoked and deserved 9/11? His exchange with Rudy a few months back filled me with contempt for the guy. No offense, but when you join forces with Rosie O'Donnell and OBL you don't even need to be thinking about running for any U.S. office.

Ward Churchill got fired for taking RP's position on 9/11.

I think that Clinton is probably going to be the Democratic nominee, and think thay Guliani is going to be the GOP nominee. Personally, I am pulling for Ron Paul.

I have decided not to watch any of the election stuff this election cycle.

I will let them waste their money.

I will go in and vote and that is my involvement

At least go in informed. I think one of the reasons why we have the type of people running and keep saying "is this the best" because people do not make INFORMED decisions.

Now that Oprah is actively supporting and campaigning for Obama that will increase his chances. When Oprah speaks, women listen. She is very popular and very influential.

The Hollywood crowd, the Gays, the Abortionists, the Socialists, and people of that ilk will support the Democratic candidate whoever he/she is.

If you are getting tired of all this campaign hoopla even though the election isn't until next year, you can go online to

He was fired for plagiarism. His position on 9/11 brought attention to his plagiarism.

Why some people can not see the ideals that Hillary spouts off at the mouth reeks of communism...is beyond me. Why anyone would vote for her is the $1,000,000 question.

Then...UNPATRIOTIC Obama. Nuff said!
