Hate takes way to much energy and time, I think a better emotion would be indifference.

It's pretty obvious there are sarcasm tags on that post.

Did you get the FR issued 3D screen shade?

Just a note of agreement with the "language" thing. We are all adults here but we don't have to be like the DUmmies.

Sorry, I have no sense of Huma. Thanks for supporting me through the urge to deal a low blow.

How does the word “bitch” take the name of God in vain?

I wondered what the problem was too. If any "woman" (loosely applicable) in the public eye deserves that description..........

Glad you are still here. What's with the "au revoir"?

And a mark of an adult is to call his female adversaries bitches?

I suspended myself for a week, but I came back after six days. Forgot to fix it.

Obama is a very real threat. HE is clueless regarding the dangers faced by America and would likely get many of us killed with his ignorance coupled with his mindless belief that he actually knows something.

His arrogance and smugness last night was pretty astounding. Not like the left will pick up on it, though.

The fact that McCain can get a single Republican vote sickens me.

McManiac is not counting on Republican votes (and definitely not Conservatives) in New Hampshire.  He is counting on Dhimmicarts and "independents," who are allowed to vote in that uber liberal state, to lift him to victory in this open primary.  This story is actually bad news for the perpetually angry JM.  I believe that the voters supporting Obama in NH are primarily coming from John boy.

This is good news for Mitt and, particularly, Fred.

These polls reflect the views of the MSM, the dinosaur media, and the sheeple that follow them.  Not conservatives.  The bottom line question is will conservatives buy the propoganda and stay home or will they shove it in the face of the lying MSM?

It's possible, now in NH, which is an "open" primary, and dominated by liberals, but not later, such as in SC, unless the sheeple are dumber than I think.

Being indifferent to the mortal danger the Beast is to the US is to put it politely, foolish. This is as close as any communist/socialist has come to the presidency. The survival of the country as we know and love it is most probably in jeopardy.

NH hates Fred for refusing to do door-to-door. NH voters want their butts kissed, and Fred hasn’t complied.

Boy, what a loaded question :) Osama is pulling in college kids, independents, anti-war, sweeping change.

Sounds like Ron Paul.

Well, in head-to-head comparisons against Hillary Clinton, Ron Paul did have the best shot.

But I haven't seen any head-to-head of Rep. Paul vs. Sen. Obama. Note that even against Sen. Clinton, though, Rep. Paul doesn't do as well as Hillary in the younger age brackets--he beats her in the middle-age brackets!

John McCain seems to be the only GOP candidate polled who doesn't get whupped consistently by Obama.

Of course, these are nationwide polls, not the Electoral College, etc. But I was just wondering.

Oh, also check out "Barack Obama Star Rising, Especially Against Conservatives in Head to Head Race…" Not saying it's a great website, and it's a bit dated, but look at the numbers.
