    Re: Louisiana, Nebraska, & Washington vote on Feb 09

    Hmmm so where are the people who said Obama would be dead after Super Tuesday??? I wonder why I don't hear them now.....? Clinton's campign just struck a rock...and with the Potomac states coming up which favor Obama he can begin to take a sizeable lead in the race..Still early to tell but the people are rallying to him.

    It was a very impressive showing to for Huckabee again this past weekend.

    I didn't hear anybody say that, in fact, everybody has said that it is going to be a close race till the end.....

    Obama has been stacking up some wins, which he was projected to win, but, it will remain a close race, some big states are coming up & Clinton will chalk up some delegate votes as well.

    Howard Dean (president of the DNC) gave a speech & said that if the race continues until March, he may get involved..

    Huckabee would have to win over 80% of all the votes to just tie the delegate vote, at this stage, Huckabee is just a distraction :mrgreen:

    I wasn't talking about Suckabee! I was talking about Obama plowing over McCain. Who really wants a 71 year old as the leader of this nation? Someone I know made a great comment this weekend about his war record, I was rolling...His entire claim to fame is based off of being a piss poor fighter pilot who failed avoding getting shot down, if he didn't get shot down he would just be another former Air Force pilot.

    What is Obama's claim to fame? A speech that he gave in 2004?

    Actually, I think maybe they should use that Continental commercial when talking about Obama & his "change" slogan :lol:

    Ok, cheap shots are over, let's leave that to the politicians.....

    Yes. And he's only in the Senate because his opponent was into slightly unusual sex. That sort of thing doesn't go over well with Republicans.

    The fact that he was able to go from distant second in a Senate race to leading the race for a major-party presidential nomination against a quality opponent within four years should eliminate any questions about his charisma and leadership abilities...

    I said it and still feel that he will lose to Hillary in the nomination. When you boil him down past the fancy speeches he has nothing but the anti Bush stance. It didn't work in 04' and it won't work now. He continues to say what the left wants to hear but doesn't have any plan on how to do any of it. I loved how he told the college students he is going to give them all educations without the staggering loans but in return they have to volunteer themselves to do some sort of crap for the government in the future, oh yea I can see that working.

    No they aren't in fact they are probably quite glad they are running against another candidate with the same "we just need to change the current administration" platform. It is what will sing the DNC yet again.

    Charisma yes, leadership abilities no....
    Exactly.

    What's wrong with this idea Nick???? In fact it’s a fantastic idea. I wish I had the chance to get my college degree at no cost by offering to volunteer for the gov't. Oh btw...we already have something similar to this in place...its called the Armed Forces...The Army, Navy, AF, etc....give ten's of thousands of dollars to young adults with the promise of military service. Obama's idea simple expands this to students who may not want to serve in the military but would be willing to volunteer serving the nation in other capacities.

    Since you think its a crap idea Nick what would you suggest? Or better yet what is your boy McCain suggesting.....? Oh that's right he doesn't have an idea about higher education...much he he doesn't have an idea about health care either or atleast he hasn't shared it yet.
