2. Amazing.

I wonder if he has an idea who'll win the next Cuban 'election' for president.

4. After this primary is over, they may not like each other all that much - n/t

[Selatius]

5. This part of the article is utter crap

"Castro made no mention of Republican Cold War victor Ronald Reagan..."

Reagan didn't single-handedly win the Cold War. What about all the other US presidents during the Cold War? What about Gorbachev's efforts inside the Soviet Union?

7. Don't forget Pope JPII and Lech Walesa

Reagan/Bush I basically saw the Truman Doctrine through to its conclusion.

6. "Republican Cold War victor Ronald Reagan?"

Read the article. :wtf:

8. Heh

This should bring her down a peg or two. :)

9. Wish all you want, but it won't. She just got a big union endorsement

"The United Transportation Union on Tuesday endorsed Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton for the Democratic nomination for president, the first national union endorsement of the 2008 campaign.

"The UTU has a long history of picking winners early. Hillary will be a president that America's working families can count on. Time and again, as a United States senator, she has stood with us," UTU President Paul Thompson said."

13. I was joking

:shrug:

[Tellurian]

10. I doubt it will..

At this point in time, Obama would be a drag on the ticket.

[durrrty libby]

14. At least the ol coot got the first part right

;-)

[Tellurian]

18. Yep, Castro said, he liked Bill..

and remembered his kindness..

[Nedsdag]

11. I guess he's not dead then.

15. How 'bout Gore/Obama ---my gut tells me that wins us the next 4 elections

and my gut is seldom wrong ;)

[Tellurian]

17. Gore wouldn't be caught dead with Obama's advisers...

So, a ticket with Gore would not include Obama..

[rudy23]

19. School me on Obama's advisers

I'm still making up my mind on Obama, is there some good info you're basing this on?

From where I'm sitting, his political advisers have made him incredibly bland, but that's all I've seen so far.

21. I'm not impressed with Obama's "bipartisanship", but those guys are breaking with Bush over the war

Whereas Hillary is more hawkish, her problem is with the execution of the war.

I wouldn't put Hillary's track record of working with neocons against anybody's if I were her supporter.

Good info on Obama, though. Thanks for that. Every day there's a new chink in the armor.

[Tellurian]

29. I wouldn't say she is hawkish...

She has the experience to know what she is talking about, seeing she's lived through a presidential tenure with her husband.
But their is a world of difference between bipartisanship and actually having republican consultants on the payroll during a presidential campaign.

I wouldn't be too happy to see Obama as her VP choice. He needs to pay his dues by spending some time in the senate.

28. Obama should not be on a ticket with Clinton

[Grandrose]

24. LOL!

Here's to your gut and I hope it prevails, even though...no Gore yet!:toast:
My dream candidates for 08: GORE/OBAMA!!!!:patriot:

[AtomicKitten]

25. mine too!

Thanks for posting! :applause:

23. The Castro "endorsement" for Clobama should help Edwards in Florida

26. Maybe Obama/Clinton...?
