Clinton got biatch slapped and came in third.
I could have come in third if I tried.
She is toast.

Americans would never elect a WOMAN president. Ain't gonna happen.

Americans also would not elect a BLACK president. If this somehow does happen, he will be assissinated.

The democrats are screwed if their leading candidates are a woman and a black dude with a name like "Barrack Obama", might aswell name him Iraq Osama.

They need something to freak out the GOP base since Hillary came in 3rd.

I wasn't aware that they canceled their primaries and just decided to go with the caucus results.

I hope that will be the same phrase that you will use with Obama after he takes his years of experience, use of great speeches and nice suits to change absolutely nothing. Obama is nothing but style, his substance is about equal to the love Bill and Hillary have for each other.

Old news. Clinton's been disbarred, so how exactly would he be confirmed? Has Hillary Clinton suggested anything of this sort? Has anyone outside of Republican circles trying to stir up Hillary fear-mongering really considered this?

That's probably why neither party is running a female candidate.

He accomplished more positive changes as a senator in Illinois then most politicians do in their lifetimes. I'm only hoping he continues finding ways to make things happen like he did there.

Funny, presidents seem to change and then things in the country change. Thats how it works numbnuts.


Really? i didn't know that, maybe it was my many years being a PHD at numbnuts university, but I'm pretty sure the President has become basically a worthless puppet. If you honestly believe Obama would follow up and do everything he promises you are obviously smoking more meth than the whole state of Missouri combined.

How am I trolling? Mark my words, the Republicans will win again. There is no way America will elect a black man or a woman. Would you want Hillary Clinton to be running the most powerful country on Earth, or let alone, Barack Obama? People elect leaders that reflect their views and image, since the majority of US population is white, they will vote for a white candidate. Also, a female would be seen as a weak leader in comparison to dominant males, so that will never happen either. The US is the strongest country in the world, and it needs a powerful leader.

Now a respected conservative law professor has openly predicted a future President Clinton would name her husband to the high court if a vacancy occurred.
...
Kmiec worked for Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush in the White House as a top lawyer, but said he has no personal or political "disdain" for Bill Clinton.


Of course he doesn't have any "disdain" for Bill Clinton. He loves the fact that he can fire up the GOP base with this prediction.

Clinton came in third in Iowa. She will have 14 delegates to the Democratic national convention to Obama's 17. A difference of 3 delegates.

2025 delegates are needed at the Convention to secure the nomination.

Why the fark are people so excited about the Iowa caucus?

They won't have any choice. Abe Lincoln could be on the ballot, and America still wouldn't elect a republican in 08. Mu hu ha ha ha.

And, by the way, does "assisinated" mean "turned into a sissy?"

You seen that guys voting record in the US Senate? Pretty sad to say the least. But what am I saying he's a successful African American who is white enough to beat the racist rap and make Jimbo in Montana feel like he isn't voting for an actual black guy.

Actually, he was suspended, and the suspension ended in 2006. Besides, even if she offers her husband up as a Supreme Court Justice, she wouldn't be able to get past the Republican supermajority in both houses of Congress.

Only if he takes his spot on the bench after Hillary leaves office. Thats my only caveat.

Echoic are you a moron? How am I a racist? Racism is when you HATE another race. I don't hate black people.

You don't think that if Obama is elected, some militia is gonna flip out and plan to kill him? Believe it or not a lot of people would be pissed off.

I was appointed to the Justice Squadron one time. I swear. Had to go spend a day at the Municipal Fortress of Vengeance, where my fellow squadron-ites and I were faced with the task of deciding whether or not a no good drug dealer deserved to be burned at the stake.


Sadly, I didn't make the final squadron, as I was removed by the Prosecution (probably for being too good looking and smart), but I've no doubt that my remaining squadron-ites were able to honor my memory that sorrowful, lonesome day, oh so many years ago (two, to be precise).


I'll never forget it.

To be a Supreme, you don't need to be either a lawyer or a judge. You just need to be breathing.

Confirmed? Hard, but if the Dems in power in Congress, and Queen Hillary in the big chair...

Between Hillary and Huckabee, who would you choose?

If it should come to that, there's no reason to vote. They are both the most unfit to be a president out of the whole lot of them.

The fact you are from Canada and would read a stupid US politics thread for anything but amusement proves that you are, in fact, trolling. Not very well either, way too obvious. You give us Canadians a bad name you stupid fool.

I think it means forced to wear a dress, do housework and get spanked for poor performance (if you're lucky).

I'm also guessing spiro's subconscious must be running like a hamster on speed.

Ok mister sunshine and happy marshmellows tell me what in our current political system is good? and what leader can actually manipulate it so it can be used for the actual public good? you can throw out all the fancy quotes you want and convince yourself that the system and the people in and around it will get things done but it doesn't happen. Sure Obama might be the beacon of light and actually be honest but its not long before the machine turns most people into the same old product. I'm all for candidates who can get things done but do you have even a small grasp of what they are going up against? Even a concept of the system in place that will take guys like Obama and spit him out? You can dream all the rainbows you want and imagine all the fairy lands your able to but to estimate and get a grip on reality and what he faces you are just kidding yourself. I mean if we are in that game then sure give me some more drugs and lets get to dreaming.

No President does EVERYTHING, but we'd all be pleased as punch if he did the majority of what he wants to do.

Stop being such a wet blanket. Big changes can occur if we believe they can.
