Observation.....

A recent newspaper article I read on line commented about Sen. Hillary Clinton's ability to "unify all Americans".

This is true. Right Wing, Left Wing, Moderate, Conservative, Liberal, etc., all seem to be unified in their dislike for her. Conservatives hate her for being too Liberal. Liberals hate her for being too Conservative. Moderates hate how she triangulates everything and seems to have a field poll for ethics and a weathervane for a heart.

Right now I'm rooting for Richardson and Paul. Though I'm developing some grudging liking for Edwards, and a faint amount of tolerance for "Flipper" Rommney.

Most of the rest seem like the biggest pack of losers out there.

Me - I'm totally going for Voldemort.

We need another actor in the White House! They look pretty, speak their lines well before the press and give the world the impression that they know what they are doing. So Vote for Fred Thompson! :-)

Actually, I dislike her for her name. From what I've heard of her positions, I tend to agree... but I think continuing the Bush... Clinton... Bush... Clinton cycle is wrong -- it makes it look like these are the only two families we can elect. I truly believe she should have run as Hillary Rodham.

I'm supportive of Richardson and there's a Ron Paul sticker on the car. My grudging fondness is for Kucinich, that UFO-seeing, non-meat eating, redheaded hottie-doin' weirdo.

I don't mind HRC, but I'd rather not have her.

I do not want pretty much any of the republican field, and that includes Romney -- I've learned over the years that any candidate that doesn't wholeheartedly support my rights to my own body isn't getting my support, and if they're not totally against it in public, they probably are in private if they're Repub. There's been enough damage done already (see also Ron Paul, libertarian darling, who doesn't believe freedom from government applies to my body).

Dunno, not voting in the primary since I registered Independent.

The funny thing was when I was working on Ron Paul's Libertarian Presidental campaign years ago, he was actively pro-choice. Go figure. I'm disappointed he's changed on that.

And Flipper Romney was for it before he was against it. But that's not surprising, if you don't like Romney's opinion on something, wait a while and he'll change it again.

Ron Paul sees the writing on the wall. No Pro-Choice candidate will be elected in the new Christian Nation.

Wow. That's a whole lotta wrong.

The bill's sponsors reads like a NeoCon who's who as well. Only one Democrat cosponsored this piece of tripe.

And Ron Paul......no vote. Neither a yes or no.

I'm writing in Stephen Colbert. No force in the universe should have the audacity to tell a US citizen of legal age and Constitutional viability whether they can or cannot run for President, even if it was a joke.
