Did you see the film clip that Al Gore did on the West Wing set. He asked Martin Sheen if he could sit in the president's chair, and spends the rest of the evening pretending to answer the phone as the president, etc. . . .

Well, sounds like the White House is worried about it:

It would be ironic if Kennedy's seat became the one a minority of Republicans needed to block progress again.

I found this:

http://abcnews.go.com/Business/wireStory?id=9574997

Interesting information. So it would take four or five days to get it done. It would be a mess, but Brown will have to win by a good margin to stop it, at least I think. Otherwise it would be pretty easy to pull a Katherin Harris (or I guess an anti-Katherin Harris since she rushed inaccurate votes rather than delaying accurate votes. Sixes, I guess) and delay the thing for, what, a few weeks I'd think.

My guess it's much adoo about nothing. But good spectator sport.

Obama is heading there Sunday to rally the base, on Hardball tonight the general thinking was the middle is already lost and Obama will try to get the Left excited or scared enough to go out and vote. We shall see if he has more success than he did begging for the Olympics.

Now that is a gratuitously ignorant comment. I guess I shouldn't have expected otherwise.

Try the ignore setting. It really helps. Raises the level of debate immensely.

Really? I thought it was pretty funny.......still do! Obama went hat in hand to sell himself on giving the Olympics to Chicago....he just may have done some groveling aswell.


So you can write statements of insult to the Right but dont dare do it to the Left.......how nice for you.



"And the problem is that these wackos have become the party's loyal "base." Accordingly, no GOP politician is willing to call foul on these nut cases. Look at all the back-pedaling/groveling when one finally gets up the nerve to say something critical about Limbaugh or Bob Jones."

That was you describing folks as "back-pedaling/groveling wackos and nut cases" correct?
Nobody would find that ignorant or an insult............your too good for that.

Ahhh the "tolerant" Left, champions of free speech...gotta love em!
One could point out the fact that had your party not simply decided to "ignore" its critics you all wouldnt be in panic mode today but thats just crazy talk.
People are against Healthcare................just ignore them
Climate change may not be real and the data is flawed or incomplete...........just ignore them
Cap and Trade..............ignore them
Hmmm, I say a pattern here.

I see. The lesson being that you shouldn't try. If you try you may fail. Lame to celebrate the failure of our country.
