Soccer Moms for McCain/Romney ticket could hurt Obama
These white women are drooling and swooning over Romney and demanding that he be made VP for Little Mac. I know, I know. But he is good looking and wears his clothes well. A real executive type. What I am hearing through my daughter who has some of these gals for friends is that they want Romney to be VP. They think that Little Mac will die withing the first 6 months and then the gorgeous hunk of Romney will be president, and all the women of the world will be jealous again, like they were when Bill Clinton was president. I sure hope Hillary picks John Edwards for her VP. She is very smart and it seems like Bayh is close in her campaign so maybe she will pick him, who knows. I just feel that we dems have a big threat in the GE if Romney should be selected for VP for Little Mac. I know these women are writing and calling and putting the pressure on for Romney.

Inded I have no idea what your post means. That is not very adequate reply. I don't want to ? them. I'm heterosexual.

19. I believe you partially
I don't know any white males who will vote for Hillary or BHO. However we women will see that Hillary takes her rightful place in the house and senate. She has already had the house,, the senate, and she will have the house again. As for your male friends, I know all about men and how afraid they are of intelligent women. I've had plenty of experience with that type, squashing them like bugs and spiders when they try to mess with me.

20. It gets better.... his reply
Edited on Tue Apr-01-08 06:33 PM by walldude
"Well, McCain doesn't look skinny or out of breath...

...now does he? He is in for another 30 years or more. His mother is about 100 years old. He obviously has longevity in his genes. He'll live to see 30 years of that hundred year war in Iraq. That's my take. Poor Obama, maybe that woman of his is too busy attacking Hillary to cook for him, perhaps."

I realize this is probably breaking the rules but I had to show you...

21. Democratic party
Thats where they found me, and I have a good idea, you came from the opposite side of the fence. Real dems. can argue without being nasty and foulmouthed. We can debate without making personal attacks and using the F word. We can debate very well but republicans cannot. I know this board is loaded with reps. who are going to vote for Little mac in Nov. So I am not a bit fooled by anyone who can not debate without trying to drag another democrat down, or gang up on the apparently lone democrat on this board.

26. He is very religious
A Mormon. Let me tell you they are true to the words of God. They do take care of their own. The Mormons don't have to draw welfare and get food stamps if they are poor. But perhaps you aren't acquainted with their ways. They give of themselves and their goods to the less privileged. Of course women are always going to vote for a good looking man like Romney. I remember his dad was even better looking than the son. He was so tall and had beautiful hair. I was young then and swooned everytime I saw him on TV. But now I want a woman, and we need a woman. Men don't do well with handling the bills. I've had four husbands and had to handle all the financial details, because men are so lax with money matters. They gamble, they drink, they cheat. We need Hillary. She has no bad habits.

51. you make me puke with your sexist trash
women are not as brainless and shallow as YOU evidently are with your disgusting repuke talking points. They largely vote on issues, not looks, genius. And I'm one woman who finds Romney repulsive to look at. He has the sex appeal of well polished highboy. I've never swooned over a politician's looks. And hilly sucks the big one when it comes to managing bill. Her campaign is deeply in debt and she's stiffing small vendors.


Go back to freeperville or crawl under some bridge.

28. Oh very funny I'm sure
I can't stand Bush or Little Mac. This pic is obviously a composite. Gives me the shivers. And he isn't mine. I am merely speculating about all these women who are demanding that Romney be made VP. They think that McCain will keel over and Romney will be prez. But I don't see it that way. I figure he has good genes and will live to be older than his mother.

30. Got that right
Of course I haven't heard Obama say he will not reinstate the draft. I know Charlie Rangel had been slavering for a draft for a long time. So don't bet all your doogies that we won't have a draft if Obama or Hillary gets it for prez. I haven't heard either of them say they will not reinstate a draft. It's just like the regular career military people we have won't be enough to go around to all the places we are involved with, and will be involved with due to the war raging in Iraq. It's a pity but there it is. They will just have to take their little ones to Canada, like I would do if my son were young. Fortunately he is past draft age. So it doesn't affect me.

32. That's impossible
No suit could be that empty. As a democrat, I was sort of hoping that he would get the republican nod. It would have made for a better race. A good looking man like him going up a good looking blonde like Hillary, and her VP who is gorgeous(John Edwards). You really need to read Romneys stats. He graduated Summa cum Laude, and you don't get any higher than that. It's all there on the web for those who are interested. I doubt if even I could graduate Summa, maybe Magna cum Laude which is second in line for the most intelligent.

31. A Lot Are
My cousin is a proud neocon and she is clamoring for Romney to be VP. I finally got frustrated enough I told her she reminded me of a woman I carpooled with when Reagan was running. She almost got kicked out the the carpool when she said she was voting for him because he could control those people. She was talking about Hollywood because he was SAG president. I never will understand people voting for someone because of what party and their looks.:banghead:

36. Exactly - it is the Soccer Mom types
just as I said. But really as I also said, he is no empty suit. I've read his very impressive biography. Summa cum laude is not to be sneezed at by anyone. No-one can sneeze at it - because that's as smart as they come. He was also graduated as Valedictorian of his Law School. Or I might have that backwards. I know his resume is very, very impressive. But I am of the type who has always thought that beauty and brains go together. Just recently I read that a study had been done that proves beauty and brains go together. I think it would be fun to see a really tough GE. It would give us something to take our minds off the war. For I have my mind on that a lot, even though some think it sort of a picnic, or luncheon.

44. Sorry
I didn't mean to be funny. But a lot of people don't seem to think of those poor people fighting in Iraq and dying there. Or the poor people who are killed, women, men and children. At least when Viet Nam was a war, I heard about it on radio and on TV, almost constantly on radio. Now this bunch in Washington won't let us see the coffins coming in with the dead. I saw a young man on TV this morning with Phil Donohue. Phil D. has made a movie about this young man's experiences in war with Iraq. The young man was so badly injured he can't have relations with his wife. I really want to see the movie, but I need to find out if it is a television move, or a regular movie. What I saw this morning was very moving. My point in telling you this story of the young vet., is to let you know that he seemed to be somewhat bitter about his friends not being honored with flag draped coffins when they arrive back in America dead. My husband is a vet., and he is very disturbed by this new form of war where we hide the casualties,so people wont become upset. They need to be upset, and to start marching and protesting this stupid war.

41. Actually McCain if ahead of Hillary and BHO right now
according to the polls. I hardly think that is a joke. It is something to worry about. We sure can't afford that one hundred year war he wants. We are already flat busted, and going down the drains because of all the trillions spent on that uncalled for war in Iraq. Now the housing Ponzi scheme has collapsed like a burst balloon, and furthermore gasoline is over $5.00 a gallon. I've heard a few times that banks are going to close. This is not a recession. It's a depression. They are even saying that our groceries won't be delivered to the stores, because gasoline and diesel fuel is too expensive. Better think of how to CYA when all H breaks loose.

38. Truth
Dont tell me what to say. The truth is the truth. Some women, actually are turned on by Romney, and think he is hot, hot, hot. Not all due to his looks. His brains - all those smart awards - that really turns me on. Smart men are few and far between IMHO. And in my experience of competition against men in intellectual abilitis, I can beat them everytime. That is why men are afraid of a woman president.

45. Don't include me in the "men are afraid of a woman presidenct" thing.
I am a man. I'd be glad to see a woman as president. An actual feminist, progressive, pro-worker and anti-militarist woman.

We don't have a candidate like that this year.

And if you're a woman, it's hard to tell when you make posts like the first one. It sounded like something Rush Limbaugh would post while typing with one hand.

47. Again with the personal attacks?
I am a woman. I don't need you to tell me who I sound like. I have listened to Rush Limbaugh one time before, and I sound nothing like that fool. Also, I hear a lot of men saying they will vote for a woman, but when it comes down to the cajones cutting, they won't vote for a woman. You aren't talking to some wimpy fool. You are trying to boss me, and undercut me. And I will give you one warning about the personal attacks.

58. It wasn't a personal attack. It was an explanation of what your post sounded like to me.
There's a huge difference. I have nothing whatsoever against you as a person.

And I DON'T have to vote for the conservative establishment candidate who happens to be biologically female in order to prove I'm willing to vote for a woman.

And if I couldn't handle electing women, I wouldn't be working for the campaign of Diane Benson, who if elected(to Alaska's Congressional seat) would be the first Native American woman ever elected to Congress.

HRC is not a litmus test and you know it.

...and he really, really turns me on. Know what he is so smart about? Math. Something that never interested me at all. But it still turns me on. There is a difference between being smart and being a smart aleck you know. Not saying you or anything like that. Just saying you are really in the dark if you don't google this guy. He did graduate with the honors I mentioned. Evidently Romney turns his wife on they have a bunch of children.
