Their support of this walking, talking contradiction in only indicative of their extreme desperation.

If Diogenes was a billionaire, he couldn't afford the fuel for his lantern to go to DC.

I'm not sure he knew what they were either as he had no idea they'd be in SoCal

This is the sad truth. We should have had Mitt four years ago but got McLame. Of all the candidates then and now he's still the best choice. Socially aware a fiscally responsible. Just the moderate most of the country is looking for.
Jump on in Dave (bluestreak Dave that is) with how much better a choice Obama will be again.....

So it may all be in who turns out their base in the general.
Back on Newt the brute, I love it now he is exposed as the person I always knew he was. Laugh when I hear all the the talking heads defending or making excuses him now. We all know there is plenty more info to come.

I have no problem saying that I will be voting FOR Obama. Sure, I have been disappointed by how he caved on some issues, and how he allowed the right wing to define the issues. But he has now shown the ability to seize the direction of the conversation, maybe even enough to overcome some of the intransigence in Congress. At least from the way it looks now, the debate over the general election will be sufficiently defined that he will have a mandate - and the wherewithal to do something about it.
Regards,
D-Ray

But we live in KS and MO. Your vote almost counted last year, but I bet it won't even be close in misouri this go around, and Kansas, well, is Kansas.

Nope. Live in Kansas, but work in MO. I'm hoping that the professional folks in JOCO wake up enough to send Yoder back to his tea party, but I don't hold out hope for the KS electoral votes to go anywhere but the GOP.

You're right, no Donk running for anything above dog catcher will be elected in Missouri this year. And even they need to watch out who's dog they catch.
It's a real possibility that Missouri may be relegated back to our "Bellweather" status.
