The Presidential Election
It looks like it's going to be a McCain vs Hillary election. I don't think Obama will make it, although I like him. It would be interesting if he and Hillary paired up as President and Vice President, but they've been slamming each other too much.
I don't see Mitt Romney winning either. He's not as well known as McCain. The media in NY is really making so much fun of Giuliani! His "win Florida and forget the rest" strategy wasn't even close to sane. I would say it's going to be a very boring election.

Quite seriously I cringe to think of the Clintons representing us again. They were an absolute embarrassment last time. How anyone could vote for her is beyond my understanding.
The woman gives me the creeps.

I never get into political discussions, don't know why I'm posting this. 99.9% of the time, I'm on the other side of the fence from others. Don't want Hillary, but definitely don't want Obama either. I don't take elections lightly..I study, read and watch for as much information as I can get. Thought about crossing lines, but McCain is such a ...well it doesn't help to call names. So....like I said earlier...it's going to be a very scary future.

I think he's a good man and would be a very good President. I think, sadly, that there are still people in this country who won't vote for a Black President. He is doing quite well in the primaries though - much better than expected. You never know! There's an awful email going around about him being a radical Muslim - kind of trying to tie him to the terrorist factions in the Muslim religion. If you Snope it, of course it's lies. How foolish some people are.

I'm still registered up in Wisconsin, by the time I thought about it it was too late to register here for the primary. This is the first time since I was 21 that I won't be voting in the primary I am so bummed out about this. I was gonna write Stephan Colbert from Comedy Central in as my candidate of choice

Yes! I would be a good president - put a quick end to all this nonsense and have a good time doing it! When I was a teacher, my kids always wanted me to become a principal. We would laugh because they knew if it was a nice warm day, I'd call off classes and have a field trip right to the beach. Honestly, I don't see that much difference on the issues between Hillary and McCain.

Politicians always confused me. Why anyone would want that life is not something I can connect to. You're in the public eye, have a need for power, lie a lot, etc. and I just don't get it.
I'm sure there are many politicians who sincerely want to make this country the best it can be, but we really don't hear about the good things. The media feeds us only the bad. I would be a good President though. We all know what's right and what's wrong, it's the gray areas we have trouble with. That's where compromise is needed, and where we don't seem to be able to do that.
