Have at it, to discuss whatever goings-on you wish to. However, be forewarned, it should be done in a reasonable, straightforward, and most importantly respectful manner. All forum ground rules apply, and again no personal attacks. We reserve the right to close the thread at anytime if things get out of hand. Also make sure political commentary doesn't get into your attitude towards others in the main forum.

I think that's all. So let's get it on!

I think the title may be a little to un-underthecoverofdarkness. Something less obvious may be in order, but that is your desision Achtung.

Nonetheless. RE John McCain. He is exactlly what the country needs right now. A true moderate that will appeal to many people but also help the economy with his economic conservatism (I think it will help it, just hopefully no more tax cuts). However, he is going to be 72 by 2008 as someone said and the oldest President by 3 years over Reagan, so I don't know how that will work.

Ok sorry, sorry. Civilized discourse is the heart of democracy.

I'm not crazy about McCain, but if I had to pick the Repub candidate in 2008, it'd be him. Who would be a good running mate for him?

I'm not sure, but it sure hell shouldn't be my man Haley Barber. He hasn't done anything for my state.

For the Dems, I think Gore would have been a great President but no chance of him coming back. Also I would put money on Gen. Wesley Clark winning if he had won the Dems in 04. He has the military service in him and is hard nosed so would appeal to alot of Reps but is also a Demo so would appeal to Democrats. Good guy too.

McCain/Giuliani '08

OK, who is gonna be the front-runner for Democrats then? Wesley Clark was supported by Michael Moore, btw... He's a good guy but I just see him winning the primaries. Although Clinton/Clark duo may work, as some would-be McCain voters may also take age into consideration and vote for a younger military guy.

I hate all politicians.

Trust a politics thread to kill the entire board.

I'll be sitting on the fence, democrat style, for a while. But if Rick even thinks about showing his face in here...

What's the point? This country is moving to the right as the powers that be continue to hype the threat in order to keep the people scared. And so it goes. In the meantime, I'll stay bunkered in the Blue City and hope that by the time I have a child and he or she is in school that creationism is not in the science curriculum.

Why not discuss, if you don't care don't read.

I could see McCain Guiliani though. Bbut from what I hear Hilary has said some idiotic things that are alienating her from her party even.
