None of these clowns sounded presidential at all

[BlueStater]

Especially Rudy and McCain. Abraham Lincoln rolls in his grave.

[saltpoint]

1. It's kind of a shame for the GOP that Buddy Hackett isn't still with us.

He would have as much a chance to get the nomination as any of the people in this debate.

[MadMaddie]

2. All I see are a bunch of Rich White Men who want to control

every aspect of our lives.....:puke:

[polichick]

7. Sadly, that's what appeals to right-wingers...

Sigh...

[democrat2thecore]

8. Race has NOTHING to do with it

They all were losers - except for Ron Paul, who I admired for his stand on civil liberties.

[MadMaddie]

10. Agreed they are all losers....but the Neocon nut house party

wants to protect their own....(yes there are misguided minorities and women who think these fellas really care about them)

Race and class has everything to do with the 2007 Repug Candidates and their beliefs and the 27% that support them.

Mormons...not many miniorities in that group,
Punish the poor for being poor, education-too bad if you aren't born into a wealthy family...* said pull yourself up by your boot straps...
Women...shut up and we White men will tell you what will be done with your bodies...

And I could go on...but it makes me weary....

[democrat2thecore]

11. It should make you feel weary

Because THEY use the same racial stereotyping. It's wrong on both sides. Period.

[MadMaddie]

14. So you are saying that this group of men on stage tonight

supports a womens right to choose?
supports equal rights for all Americans?
these men would take this country to war again and again to push their ideology?


They are extreme far right nuts...who believe that their relious beliefs should permeate and rule American society not the Constitution....

I am African American and I don't fool myself racism, sexism and homophobia are alive and well in this country and that group of men will continue to oppress Americans that don't look like them or think like them.

How is it a stereotype if it is an actual fact? Did you listen to their responses?

[democrat2thecore]

15. Hmmmmm

Maybe that's why you think it's okay to label using race - because it has happened to YOU. I understand that, it's a little more understandable. But, no, it's wrong both ways.

As for those policies they presented tonight - they all would mean further RUIN of this country. But they could have all been black and I would have felt the same way. It's what they SAID and what they STAND FOR.

Have a good night! We'll beat any of them anyway :)

[MadMaddie]

21. We will beat them...You have a great night also!

[valerief]

3. TWEETY was the most presidential of the lot! nt

[GenDem]

4. It shows me just how strong the Democratic candidates are. NT

[rocktivity]

5. And in three days St. Reagan will rise from the dead

and instantly become the front-runner because he makes them look like he was in touch with reality in comparison. I myself have officially nicknamed them The Ten Stooges.

:headbang:
rocknation

[Hawkeye-X]

24. except he is not qualified under us constitution

1) he would be 3 days old
2) he has already served 2 terms
3) I don't think a ghost is a corporeal being

Etc...

[rocktivity]

26. And since when do today's Republicans let the Constitution get in their way?

Details, details!

:evilgrin:

[Telly Savalas]

6. That didn't hold Bush back. Don't get complacent.

[democrat2thecore]

12. Very good point

He would have been the last person you would link the word "presidential" with.
Still, I can't see these guys tonight being able to hold a candle to ANY of our guys. Including Gravel(!)

[democrat2thecore]

9. I agree

None of those guys are anywhere close to being able to be in the Oval Office. No way.

[Big Pappa]

13. I disagree

I think Romney looked very presidential and could spell trouble for us.

[democrat2thecore]

16. Really?

To me, he seemed like the epitome of the pre-packaged, processed Hollywood stereotype of the "slick" used car salesman or religious huckster - or phony politician. But, who knows? He's raised a lot of money.

[Big Pappa]

17. Thats how he

sounded to me as well. Just perfect for the GOP. Hell look at how bad Bush spoke and we have him for 8 years. Add to that Romney's vast wealth, and I stand by my assertion that he could be trouble.

[electron_blue]

18. I still dont' see how he'll get over the being Mormon hurdle. That freaks out

a large portion of voters.

[Big Pappa]

19. I am

sure they have some kind of plan for that, but if the evangelicals do not warm to him, he is finished.

[Colobo]

20. Romney is very slick... we all need to be afraid of him.

That man will fool many people...

[truebrit71]

23. But at the end of the day he's still a Mormon...

...and that will put paid to him...


I know what you mean though..he was the "slickest" of them all...

[Tellurian]

27. The only thing we need to be afraid of Katz..

Is them stealing another election. Romney put on a good show, but he'll get nailed on all his flip flopping. Nurse Nancy would feel right at home with Romney, he couldn't remember what he said last week. I'm sure her ears perked right up after his disclosure.

[otohara]

32. He Reminds Me of Reagan

I think you're right.

[TwilightGardener]

22. The Mittler did--insincere, but Presidential, IMO.

[ginnyinWI]

25. the worst moment was when Bill Clinton was mentioned.

That's when they showed just how much class they lack. Couldn't wait to snicker and laugh and roll their eyes--as if Bill Clinton's eight years was the worst thing for the country.

"NO--",I said to the TV, "It's your stupid conservative ideas that hurt this country. And yet you persist!"

[Tellurian]

28. I saw that too-

basically they were afraid to answer the question- so they all laughed and mumbled something inaudible about Hillary. Then one of the cretins said something almost as useless relating to Bill measuring for drapes in the Oval office. When in fact, Bill is probably ordering the latest in orange jumpsuits with the new velcro fasteners for them and their brethren. :)

[ginnyinWI]

29. one theme they all just love to follow--

is to accuse Dem women of being masculine, and Dem men of being feminine. Hm, projection? But they do it to the point of being ridiculous.

[Tellurian]

30. It's a favorite Republican ploy

The Reverse Logic argument. Accuse others of your own negatives!

[slackmaster]

31. That was the softest softball question ever

:eyes:

[ProudDad]

34. And the parts of their right-wing Fascist program

of world (and national) domination that Clinton embraced in order to "get elected" that hurt this country (and the world).

And yet many of the Dem candidates also persist...

[Eurobabe]

33. I'm watching now. In order of who make me puke the most....

1. BrownbacKKK
2. Dunkin Donut Hunter
3. Mitt Romney, part time car salesman
4. McCain, sounded weak and confused
5. Ghouliani
6. Gary Gilmore, ex Gov VA
7. Huckleberry Finn
8. Tancredo
9. Tommy Thompson
10. Ron Paul, most believable
