LOL (sneaking some rum and nutmeg in for a little ray of moonshine)
Those were awesome. Thank you very much.
AINT IT GREAT!
Am glad to see the money I've been sending him getting some results. Apparently others are donating too. Every buck we send helps a buck someone else sends, esp. now as his campaign is showing signs of finally picking up some steam!
Are your friends conservative? Do they think Hillary has “it”? They sound like the types that voted in the last Clinton.
Yesterday there was a story about Dobson endorsing Huckabee, which was quickly retracted.
Just think if Dobson endorsed Hunter.
I am to the point of prayer and fasting over this nation.
Thanks to Daylilly, I called in. I think Dobson got a lot of feedback this week.

I would suggest that if you are concerned you should call 719-531-5181 and ask to speak to someone [about Dr Dobson], not about Focus on the family. Express yourself without cursing.
All caught up now.
Thanks for all you do.
I didn’t know there were so many Blue Dress Republicans.
They are conservative and are not sure about RUDY etc. This is the Duncan Hunter - who? Thing. Outside of those who pay very close attention to politics he is virtually unknown.
Here’s what you said:
Cannot explain it but I watched the show with five friends who knew nothing about him. They all liked what he said but just did not warm up to him.
Then you say this:
This is the Duncan Hunter - who? Thing. Outside of those who pay very close attention to politics he is virtually unknown.
So by your own posting, they are already exposed to him. It’s no longer a “Duncan Who” thing, it is an “it” thing as you said. So let’s just cut out the pretense and send your friends some blue dresses and be done with it.
"Are your friends conservative? Do they think Hillary has it? They sound like the types that voted in the last Clinton.
I responded with the answer to YOUR question. No they didn't vote for Clinton last time and they really do not follow politics until elections get closer.
Since you seem to have preconceived notions I will try one more time. Reagan had "it". Ford did not have "it" - consequently we got Jimmay who was suppose to be a good guy and honest. JFK had "it", Teddy does not have "it". Bill Clinton has "it"; Hillary does not.
Hunter is done. He will get a bump in the next week or so but it is over. The money will dry up before the end of the year. Do you look at the polling? At this point Ron Paul is beating him in most.
One of things about FR is that we forget that the majority of the country gets it's politics in very small doses and doesn't pay attention until it's time to vote. Most spend 10 times more effort on sports than politics.
At this point I will say Hillary will not win because history indicates that we go the opposite of the current President. Hillary does not pass the honesty test and a large part of the population believe that W lied about the war.
So, Bill Clinton has “it”, but Hunter does not have “it”. Yet your friends claim not to have voted for Bill.
Do you look at the polling? At this point Ron Paul is beating him in most.
***Do you bother to read the thread? Look at post #123 for polling results that I posted. Over at Intrade, Ron Paul is beating Thompson as well. Does that mean Thompson is done?
Heres a very recent poll showing Hunter at 4%.

Heres an intrade link to the forum site discussing how Hunter might be gaining traction.

Heres one showing Fred at 6%, and discussing why.

One thing prediction markets are better at their only bias is whether someone can make money trading the futures contracts.

Fred has lost ~30 points at Intrade over the last few weeks, looks like its stabilizing at ~6%.

***This part of your post makes absolutely no sense. If a large part of the population believe that W lied about the war, they’ll vote for hildebeast rather than the republican nominee.
Yes, Fred is done - unless he shows some major energy in the near future.
Futures markets are interesting and usually do predict the final winner. However, the fluctuation in the path there is often more volatile than reality.
The party bosses have anointed Rudy and it will cost them. Hell we may even get Fat Bill for President.
bump
read it again.
***I did. It’s very poor writing. Piss poor. It actually says the opposite of what you intended. So if you’re going to stand by what you wrote, I suppose we’re done. Humpty Dumpty conversations never last long.
No it is piss poor reading on you part and yes i was bored with you anyway.
Here’s a recent article more suitable for your level of discussion. Enjoy.
