I'm just gonna take credit for calling this months ago - Romney should have had this thing on paper, but his fatal flaw was that he's a dilettante in the game - he sorta sucks at politics compared to the guys who've been doing this for most of their lives.

I still harbor hope that hair like Romney's will be appreciated by the Republican electorate.

I just want to point out that I have been OTM throughout this thread

The comments on that Red State thread are kind of telling:

"John McCain cares more about the good opinion of the Hispanic community and/or foreigners than he does Americans and America's best interest."

I was on here in '95 telling you all that Clinton would in fact be re-elected.

Obama is most liberal senator in 2007 - http://nj.nationaljournal.com/voteratings/

I have another prediction: On November 4th, 2008, the voting process will not go as smoothly as it ought to. There will be recounts and challenges to recounts. There will be claims of suppressing the vote and counter-claims of voter fraud.

I've been wondering ('wondering') what Moynihan would be doing were he still alive, and today his widow endorsed Barack.

gabbneb, Thursday, 31 January 2008 21:35 (sixteen years ago) link

Biden was 3rd-most-liberal, just ahead of Bernie Sanders, lol

elmo argonaut, Thursday, 31 January 2008 22:13 (sixteen years ago) link

"Question on: Social Issues
Do you read the funnies in the news paper? If not why not? I ask this because it can give you a look at what people are thinking and going though in the country. Even if it is in some what offbeat way"

I guess the redface half is kinda weird

dmr, Thursday, 31 January 2008 22:29 (sixteen years ago) link

soviet realism is always kind of creepy

El Tomboto, Thursday, 31 January 2008 22:31 (sixteen years ago) link

in that "ha ha makes you laugh now but forty years ago UH" creepy style

El Tomboto, Thursday, 31 January 2008 22:31 (sixteen years ago) link

it's "creepy" because it draws on propaganda aesthetics but, uhh, that's kinda the dude's defining style xpost

elmo argonaut, Thursday, 31 January 2008 22:32 (sixteen years ago) link

obama has a posse

dmr, Thursday, 31 January 2008 22:42 (sixteen years ago) link

i can say that I honestly don't ever hear a thing about clinton on the streets or from anyone's mouths; the streets of SF are filled with obama signs, flyers, etc; and clinton is allegedly in the lead here in the polls. I know that the former might follow the latter, but still, there seems to be little to no 'buzz' about HRC right now.

akm, Thursday, 31 January 2008 22:45 (sixteen years ago) link

Really? I've been hearing alot of buzz about this harvey milk character.

Cosmo Vitelli, Thursday, 31 January 2008 22:55 (sixteen years ago) link

If you could measure an election based on buzz, Ron Paul would be winning right now. Hillary's people are hiding in the wings somewhere, probably playing bingo at the rotary club.
