1. Loved the * guy!
He says * won with 11 votes.
* isn't facing serious party opposition.
Clark got 8, Kerry 3, and the other dems got some votes, too.
Add those up, Crazy * Guy!

4. I must say I am amused as well!
What a bunch of loons...it would be funny if it weren't so sad.

Just take the first WTC attack back during the Clinton admin, those people were caught and are now in prison. Seems as though that little fact seems to pass by those that despise Clinton.

My estranged wife is in NH, and she will vote for Clark, BTW.

6. oh happy day, Gov. Benson is on
:eyes:

First time I've seen ANY press for him since he was elected. I think he sits in the corner office and plays gameboy all day.

8. It is sickening.
And the woman from the Manchester Union Leader was totally unnecessary, a Novak intern...please!

Today should be a celebration of Democrats, I guess you can't eliminate calls from boths sides but I'd prefer that the guests were either neutral or Democrats.

p.s as a MA resident - I can't stand this - we need to take this primary away.x(

Oh great, now we've got Benson:mad:

9. I tuned in just as she left
was that Bernadette Connoly Malone? She used to be the editor of the Union Misleader, she's also dumb as dirt. One benfit to her running the conservative bastion a few years ago was her insistance on writing the most bizarre, least logical, poorly written, badly reasoned, editorials about things of which she knew nothing.

An example?

She did a long piece on the need to use rockets to MOVE THE EARTH FURTHER AWAY FROM THE SUN to solve the global warming problem.

11. C-span has had a LOT of repubes on for weeks
..under the guise of "analyzing" the race.. Sure.. .. It's disheartening to think that either there are NO democratic reporters left, or c-span does not even try to get some fairness across..

Their format gives the automatic egde to the repubes..

a dispassionate and non-intervening "host", reading selected snippets of news,and alternating calls.. then a "guest" who sits there un-opposed , free to spin away, while the callers who DO get through are cut off without even finishing their thought...

Next guest.. either a Cato or Heritage or Federalist person who is only too happy to poibt out the error of our ways..

Next guest.. some assistant to the under secretary of something or other who drones on and on about nothing...

Next guest..space exploration, or monument placement, or some other inane subject for a POLITICAL show..

They give us a miniscule 3 hour show, and clutter it up with republican talking points and non-political stuff..

Most days, I watch Washington Journal, and after it's over, I don't feel like anything was gained..

They could tweak the format and actually have some real debate, but they take the "easy" way out.. They rely on guests who are obviously "supplied" to them...and they let all of us down..

10. Ohhh Grrrrr! You hit it Big. They were awful this morning. The one
guy with his ayuhs, and then blaming the liberal media in a far sweeping gesture and not being able to clarify. There should be an idiocy monitor on those phones. :hi:

15. I'm just now listening and right now there isn't a bigger
shill for Bush* than this Bernadette Malone woman. Good lord! She is definitely spouting the Bush talking points. And she's talking in this sweet and calm little voice. Yeech!

17. I love it when they say "I'm a Democrat, BUT
and then they start on their lovefest with Bush. Yeah, right, you're a Democrat. This is a rightwing ploy that's old and moldy. And, why oh why do Southerners sound so incredibly stupid? No, I'm not a Southern basher. I live in Atlanta. People. People. Learn the language. Quit thinking talking like an uneducated redneck makes you sound macho. It doesn't. You just sound like a moron. Sorry. Moran.

18. Some wingnut this morning...
was saying that only a candidate who acknowledges Christ should be allowed to be president, and since that excludes Democrats, Bush should be reelected. Have these jerks ever read the Constitution?!?

21. Well that's tit for tat.
There are an equal number of so called Republican callers that say they were republicans but will vote for Democrats. It happens on both sides which is good because it evens everything out. :)
