I hope this will be the trend for Thunderthighs.....not that I’m exactly pleased with Obama’s win. But I watched Fox last night early in the evening and I kind of go along with Dick Morris’s prognostications....she will get the nomination.

Oh yeah, the ultimate Clinton chutzpah, kill Obama and try and get away with it. They are that arrogant and that sure they can do whatever they want and skate...

If Obama dies in an accident, Bubba & the Hag believe if it’s done right, it’s the perfect solution. It was pretty convenient when Foster, Brown & JFK Jr died - the Clinton’s were suggested, but the MSM couldn’t bother digging into any of the deaths.

I think evangelicals better wake up pretty soon to what is going to happen with the country if they insist on electing nominating poor leaders.

There, fixed it...'cause that's ALL that it will ever be if they insist on putting people like Huckabee on the ballot. They seem to forget that it takes a heck of alot more votes than what evangelicals can produce to get someone elected.

Thank you for the encouragement American in Tokyo, I need it. I’d hate to have to wear a gas mask into the polling booth, holding my nose is bad enough

Stupid thing to do here probably but I don’t really care at this point, I am voting for Obama in the primary here in Pa

Oh, how clever, playing games with your precious vote. And, what a waste. Is this what "true conservatism" is about? Or, maybe you're one of the DU infiltraitors.

Oh, I understand you are not going away and are as free as anyone to hold your own views and practices re religion, just as I am as a Catholic.

However, I am trying to figure out why the religious right is so angry and what it is that you want that you have not already gotten.

You have full freedom to practice your faith. Isn’t that enough?

I agree. Hillary is much more beatable than Obama-rama.

How did we get to the place where Republicans have allowed such a vacuum to exist into which, or from which, such as Obama can emerge. I think he was no more than a city councilman before becoming a senator. A United States Senator!! Arguably the most exclusive club in the world!!

We have a mayor here in Los Angeles, watching and waiting for the same opportunity. As “the first Latino mayor,” the first thing he did after election was travel to Washington D.C. to be assessed and groomed by the power brokers there. Do not be surprised if Tony Villar emerges as Obama’s veep.

This vacuum we have allowed by our disarray, by the spiteful non-voters of 2006, by GWB’s tone deafness re border security/illegal immigration, etc., is ripe for Dem opportunity.

Obama knows it. Oprah knows it. The Latinos know it.

The way things are going, I will probably wind up voting for Obama, too.

I won’t be voting for him in the General. I still don’t know who I will be voting for in the General. I really wanted Duncan Hunter.

I feel that because of how many candidates there are, we have gotten too fragmented. No matter who wins, he needs to choose a running mate very carefully to try to appease the masses.

Huckabee is pro-big government and pro-taxes. Go to chuckbaldwinlive.com and read up on the real Huck, especially if you’re pro-home school. The NEA loves Huckabee. He may not be the consummate insider like Fred Thompson but he’s getting there.

We are not a theocracy, meaning we can only leave at most this issue to the states for the most part.

IMO, you can maybe get partial birth abortions and late term abortions eventually handled. but the rest is a fight one on one for the hearts and minds of people.

If they are pro-death, you can talk to them, but like you said, it would be difficult to change minds.

The Mexico City policy was good for overseas, but trying to get that kind of thing be the law for the USA itself would be quite the miracle IMO.

I’ll concede the fact that her handlers have marketed her very well... there is no question about that. I do think there was media hype that has helped push her along. What I’m getting at is the REASON for all those “eyeballs” on her. I say the emperor has no clothes.

BTW Mr. Noble, I should add that him beating Hillary is a very good development. I’m praying that he is the nominee. I don’t think he can win the general election.

While Abortion is one of the most important issues, it is clearly for naught if we lose to the jihadists.

The jihadists will soon out number the rest of us at current growth rates because of the same democratic forces abortion represents. Abortion is a far bigger issue, both short-term and long-term.

You can add the jizba to your list of sacrifices too.

Are you referring to the HaShoah? I believe the 50,000,000 innocent Americans murdered by legal abortion so far is nine times larger than that state sponsored horror.
