I really don't care who is the dem candidate anymore -
It doesn't even matter to me on a certain level. I am just sick of losing.

This thing about Rove though - has to do with how you look at it. Oh - I think he is a criminal - and I think he is a rogue - I also think he does have a brilliant political mind - he beat us twice, if you recall. I don't forget that.

I think on a certain level this just becomes about technical abilities - not political ideology about him - and on another level - that he is a criminal - they all coexist on a certain plain.

Oh - I just want this over with.

1. McCain has had a free ride since Jan
Any polls against him are irrelevant in my opinion

4. They are irrelevant - I agree.
And I think the day this thing ends - ol "trigger finger" gets his tail pinned between his legs too.

THAT is what this is about.

Man - she came in second - OK - take her as your running mate and move on Obama -

She may not help win a single state statistically - but do you really want to piss off women of all states - cause I think that is the consequence here. I don't want to piss them off - I think they earned the right to get on this ticket.
I respect that.

2. How do you figure Rove beat us twice?
Al Gore got more popular votes than bu$h in 2000-- it was Republican flunkies in Florida, and bu$h flunkies on the Supreme Court, who beat us in that one.

8. 2000 and 2004 -
I am not talking right or wrong here - just what happened.

And I think it was BS too!

None the less - he is the guy that managed this crap!

3. It is over and sooner of later Hillary will get the message.
Obama in many ways has moved on to concentrating on McCain while handling Hillary with kid gloves. As the poster above says McCain has had it easy becuz of this protracted primary race. Once the focus is Obama vs. McCain his gaffes will be looked into more. Just look at last week--when Bush attacked Obama and Obama hit it out of the park and linked McCain to Bush.

she just doesn't have sense enough to know it...or knows it and doesn't care.


It's all about her, and

6. Remember Rove's "math" in 2006...when he said that Republicans were going to gain in congress...
yeah, he's someone to listen to.

10. I guess I am just sensitive to the fact he kicked our
but - twice - when they should have lost!

I think when we go out to the movies or read books - he memorizes electoral districts.

I don't say he is a nice guy - in fact I think he is scum. That doesn't mean I think he is bad at his job either.

This one we better win - and I would have my eyes wide open about the crap that is about to be flung at us. It is coming.

I think he is a criminal - I just think he is the tip of many smart criminals. And I think we have managed to screw up at the end too many times.

13. She is a liitle piece of work -
If Rove and those lunatics have a nemesis - she is it -

SO - Let it be so.

Let her screw with these people - she will take their cajones when she is done - and we win this one.

I do respect she is that tough - I have and will vote for Obama - but I want to win!!

Let her be VP - and then you better get out of her way if you are a republican. Republicans think she went after Obama? - Watch what she does to MC Triggerfinger.

Damn - I really do respect her "passion" and I sure wouldn't want to be in her way either.

I think - she is like that greatest of blocking backs you want in front of you when you have the ball and are running. She is that.
