Who Should We Fear More?
Mitt Romney

Rudy Guliani

or

Fred Thompson


And who is our strongest candidate?


I don't think the republic or the planet can withstand four more year of GOP misrule...

1. Two of them have wives that will freak most folks out and the
third thinks a dude found some golden tablets and read them with magic glasses to get the word of "God." They are a bad bunch.

3. This Is True...
There's a great article about Judith Nathan in Vanity Fair... The tone is catty but you what a social climber she was and how little respect Rudy had for his marriage vows...He used his own son as a "beard"... He would be having weekend liaisons with Judith while telling his staff he was golfing with his son... That's why his own children won't campaign for him...

4. None of the above.
I don't think that the two party nominees are even in the running yet.

I don't think that the person who will win the Dem nomination has even declared yet; same for Republicans.

6. I'll Give You A Three To One Odds It's
either Hillary Clinton, Barak Obama, or John Edwards

versus Mitt Romney or Rudy Guliani...

I predict Fred Dalton Thompson's is a paper winner... A winner on paper only...

8. Romney makes my skin crawl the most, Rudy is an authoritarian prick and F. Thompson
imo is fucking around because he loves people fawning over him.

i really think any of our candidates on their worst day is about 1000 times better than any of theirs on their best day.

10. I Think Mike Huckabee Means Well

13. Huckabee really caught my attention when the story about his covenant marriage
thing came out and when he and his wife renewed their vows they registered and i think there was some questionable gift givers.

11. Who to fear?
How about that DLC princess, Hillary. We can do so much better than her. 28 years of a Bush or Clinton in the Pres or VP slot is 20 years too many!

20. We are too (4 voters in the house)
Edited on Sun Aug-12-07 10:46 AM by goddess40
But some of the dem candidates will be hold your nose votes while others will be joyfully given.

Nose-holders:
Clinton
Biden
Richardson (after the LOGO debates)

Joyful:
Gore - if he chooses to run
Kucinich
Edwards

Not so sure either way:
Dodd
Obama
Gravel

Edit: My fear is that the nose-holders will chase off the Green/Nader voters again leaving us with a president with an R after his name.

16. I don't think any of them are "fear worthy"--just a cautious eye
and avoidance of overconfidence is all that's warranted with that sorry crew.
