    Former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee announced today that doctors have yet to identify the blue growth coming out of the top of his head.

    None.

    For the most part, the VP does nothing except sit around and wait for the Prez to die (and break ties in the Senate). The guy at the top of the ticket is the guy I'm voting for.
     
  3. That's what I was thinking.
    It would take something about as extreme as McCain getting Jesus or Obama taking Bin Laden or Satan to move me from one side to the other.

    Well, there's damn few in this space that fits in the undecided mode. This is like going into Boston and taking a poll.

    I just want Huckabee as far away as possible from the Republican ticket.

    If McCain picks him and Obama goes with someone like Biden, I might have a decision to make...

    It's not going to happen though...

    I really don't see how anyone could consider electing a Republican following the national tragedy of the last eight years. Yet there are many of you still out there. Why?

    Two reasons:
    How about an inherent policy regarding no taxes and the structure of the courts? Regardless of how you feel about the last eight years, those are long-held and sustained values that represent glaring contrasts to Democrats.

    Um, a collaborative society needs some taxes. I bet even GOPers have read Rousseau.

    Neither will be getting my vote. Edwards might have changed that.

    Low taxes.

    Libertarians believe in excise taxes to fund the coinage and the military. Anything remotely close to that is welcome.

    So I guess you're fixing that pot hole on your street? You're giving from your larder to the person across the street who can't afford food?

    Thank goodness his string of hooker killings ended well in advance of the national campaign. What a load of rubbish.
