2. At least someone is honest, points the finger
Hillary is BSing about her Iran vote - she said the Iranian Republican Guard are a terrorist organization.

13. Ugh, me too. Laughter at jokes is fine, but this was a serious accusation...
... and turning it into a joke is inappropriate.

16. HRC made an ass of herself tonight. I can never, ever vote for her. I'm
relieved as I was beginning to wonder if I could. The way she laughed like an ass in Gravel's face was ludicrous and insulting to all of us. She's a coward and a bully.

I have to wonder.
I love Edwards, though. Good on him for calling her out.

37. He has at least apologized profusely for his wrong-headed IWR vote.
He stated tonight that today's vote was NOT the right thing to do; suggested that perhaps Hillary has learned NOTHING from the IWR vote...
Works for me.
Go Johnny, go.

And he's right. She has learned nothing. She doesn't want to learn anything. She is in with Lieberman, the Demohawks.

Normally, he sounds a little too nutty but tonight he's making a lot of good points. And I though Hillary laughing in his face was just creepy.

a feud being the pub hound that he is, and any publicity for Gravel can only help him!

Edited on Wed Sep-26-07 09:39 PM by spotbird
He was on my list of possibles, but now, not so much.

I'm an honest undecided, although I've ruled a few out. The list narrows.

55. Did he say he was ashamed of Clintons vote? That takes balls.
The Clinton's and their powerful friends are going to neuter his ass. I loved that Clinton wouldn't touch a direct question about Israel and Iran. Walk the fence and stand for nothing. The republicans will pick her apart.

56. I was deeply disappointed in her response to my letter about Iran
It was MORE boilerplate, triangulation, SameO-Same-O, etc. I was excited when I heard that Wes Clark endorsed her, but after her pitch reiterating, "we cannot allow Iran to have nuclear technology" I lost all enthusiasm. I don't know how anyone in politics HERE can point to any other country in the world and say: "Look how dangerous THEY are." As my mom used to say, "The smeller's the feller." It just stinks. Too bad.
