Fox and Friends are reporting on a 40 YEAR OLD TECHNIQUE of wearing a hippo camoflage to take pictues of hippos.

Could they be bigger wusses. (oh wait the former fighter pilot is scared of owning guns)

Interesting there are no interviews on the Sunday shows that include Fred.

MTP is running clips of Huckster saying rude things (where to put the pole) and dumb things (amend the Constitution to align with the word of God).

I guess maybe they are done with him.

Many of us in Fla. have already voted,(I voted for Fred). The old absentee ballot has been reinvented as a vote by mail thing so as to make it more customer friendly. seems to be working.

Other than NY and Calllyfornia, Florida, is one of the most screwed up states in the union.

Florida is actually two or three states. south, middle and north. North Fla. is mostly conservative and more like GA., ala the true south.

The middle is a mix of both north and South and the southern part is just a true cluster______ of the worst kind.,P>

South Fla. is made up of transplanted yankees, has become the capital of the third world "south" including Central and South America an the islands of Haiti, and Cuba, condo commandos are everywhere.

No one recognizes Fla. as their home state everyone talks in terms of back home, its all you hear and has always been that way. Few were born here or have any long term roots as in North Fla.

There is no identity in South Fla. Its a mixture of cultures that has never worked and probably never will. That's probably why the only thing every house in Dade County has in common is bars on the windows.

As many people move into the area as leave. It is constantly changing and the only thing that keeps it viable is pure, true and free capitalism at its finest hour.

In South Fla. little things like laws and rules seldom get in the way of any one who wants to get something done.

My pleasure. After saying Romney basically running unopposed, the very next line was Ron Paul spent money in Nevada & coming second. That was Brit Hume. They don’t seem concerned that people are watching their words.

I see myself becoming more and more radical in my views on the future of this nation and the media that seems to control it

You are anything but radical my friend. You are just seeing the reality the DBM does not want anyone to see through unfiltered eyes.

This is a war of attrition, Senator Thompson, we can prevail or at least leave a serious bruise!

I showed my support for Thompson last night, by sending him a 2nd contribution. I live in NY and it was my way of "voting" for him earlier than Super Turesday.

PLEASE, don’t use “my friend.” It makes me think of McCain every time I hear those words used. I’d smack Hannity too if I were next to him. Sean uses it way too often and it’s like finger nails dragging across a chalk board to my ears.

Early voting in my county has been heavy. I voted Wednesday. We had 30% turn out by then. Polls are open tomorrow. The property tax referendum has been a big draw. Rudy had been working his voters. I hear some at least some parts of Palm Beach County are also heavy.

The big problem Guiliani has on focusing on the NY vote in Fla., which is huge, is that most of them are condo commandos with palms permanently extended all yelling a the same time gimme, gimme, gimme,. Most wind up selling out to the rats.

That's why they vote in the criminals that they do from the areas including Alcee Hastings and several other crooked types.

Tom Brokaw says we are in a time of rejection of dogma.

Mentioning how Rush is against the redefinition of conservatism. Brokaw thinks Republicans better not get bogged down in that debate, the country is hungry for solutions, for “tone”, whatever that means.

I don’t like Noonan much but she went after him on that.

My observation is no less anecdotal than that made by ThreePuttin’Dude.

But I’ve heard just the opposite from family and friends in Florida. In their areas they say early turnout since Monday has been strong and steady. All of them and most people they know have already voted.

I’ve heard the 35-40% “already voted” number too. Based what I’m hearing, I tend to think it’s true.

My county and the ones that surround me are heavy GOP. We usually settle local elections in the primary. Rudy has been all over this region. He was smart to blitz last week and last weekend.

Politico was obviously created this election cycle in order to promote left wing bias.

I agree but would phrase it to promote left wing bias with second-rate analyses. Nevertheless, they've found a warm and welcoming home on the Hewitt Show.

Just worth repeating:

Last week, a memo was sent to all deskies (prompt-writers). Gist of it was Bill Clinton should ALWAYS be called former “President Clinton” while for the current occupant calling “President Bush” once is enough.(Reasoning they should not be cheer-leading) .
The memo was signed by Fox VP John Moody.

)))))

Regularly, people still say “the president” when they are discussing Clinton. That is because presidentclinton was all one word for eight years. No one ever said “mr clinton” on any newscast.
