I love how Republicans seem to see this as some kind of personal victory for them. If the Democrats dont nominate Senator Clinton it will be fine with me. At least we did not do like the Republicans and nominate her because of the name... Like the R's did with Bush!

Just responding to all the Chimp, Huckleberry etc....
Do you ever wonder why people call you an economic idiot all the time?
Hardcore GOP partisans are praying for a Clinton candidacy; it is one of their few hopes to motivate their base the next time around. A Clinton candidacy will give them an excellent shot of taking back at least 1 house of Congress.
I don't think Jarod or Desh would argue that they are not Democrats.
You try to portray yourself as an independent, but then use Hitlary & Osama? That's right out of talk radio. You're not fooling anyone.

(-3 points on Economic scale) Guarantee affordable life-long, top-notch education: Opposes topic 7
Supports charter schools and private investment in schools: Favors topic 7

I think we should do it differently. If your school sucks and is below a certain level you should be able to send your kid to private and write off the cost regardless of income level.

This is biggest difference I have with him.. Tho Guliani is the same on republican side. I look at this like I look at abortion.. Pubs are against it.. but frankly they cant overturn it.. He wont be able to take my guns away.

YES on comprehensive immigration reform: Strongly Favors topic 12 - agree
My opinion is that illegal’s are granted visas and put on path to citizenship if they are working and paying taxes. If they are not working ship em home. And absolutely no free benefits out of my pocket. We don’t need other countries degenerates as we have enough of our own.

I think it's way to early to anoint Obama. It is funny that Clinton is hated by the far left as much as she is by the far right.
Edwards is right there as well in Iowa. Why? Because he shot his wad of cash there as Obama did hoping to get some momentum. Edwards polls 11% nationally and Obama is 20% down to Clinton as well. Keep saying what the majority of dems think Nationally doesn't matter.
