I don't believe that Arn would use a folding chair on Bush.

A tire iron is much more likely IMO.

Oops. Sorry- haven't watched rasslin' in a long time, but yeah, that was his weapon of choice, wasn't it?

I couldn't vote for Flair if Anderson was his running mate.

Maybe we could get Sting and Lex Luger together.

SirFozzie · 01-23-2004, 02:04 PM

Bah. Flexy Lexy's heading off to jail more likely then not, due to his role in Miss Elizabeth's death...

Sen. John Kerry may stress a centrist stance while trying to woo primary voters on the campaign trail, but his voting record resembles that of one of the most liberal lawmakers in the Senate — chief backer and Massachusetts' Democratic dean, Edward Kennedy

And this done not scare everyone???

sounds like what every politician does, Bush included. Whats new?

What, being a protoge of Edward Kennedy?

Easy Mac · 01-23-2004, 09:32 PM

I was refferring to the fact that he is an excessive liberal but playing to the center. However, I find it far more scarier that Bush is a protege of Bush, Reagan, Cheney, and Rumsfield

SirFozzie · 01-24-2004, 06:48 AM

Sheesh. Dean's now dropped to a tie with Clark at 15%, Edwards at 12%, and Kerry at 35%.

Dean's campaign in freefall? Right now I think he has to win a majority on Super Tuesday to have any shot at all.

BishopMVP · 01-26-2004, 12:28 PM

And now Dean (along with Edwards) is picking up votes. With all the caveats that polls are unreliable (just look at Iowa) this is interesting. The Zogby poll even has Dean a mere 3 points back of Kerry. I think though that Clark can be officially pronounced dead by now. Any hope of him recovering in the South and West has been killed by Edwards' rise.

SirFozzie · 01-26-2004, 12:38 PM

That's one poll on MSNBC.

All the rest have Kerry Double Digit leads on Dean. Bizarre.

Actually 2, but it is odd. Looking at the polls http://www.realclearpolitics.com/Pre...ire_polls.html , 2 have 3-5% leads for Kerry, 3 have 20 point leads and 1 has a 10% lead.

If you look at the ARG and the other tracking polls, Dean seems to have begun gaining again after his free-fall. It almost certainly won't be enough to win, but if he can lose by less than 10 points he could spin it as a win.

Can't wait for the victory speech...

We've seen this trick work before. Remember the "comeback kid?"

Well, not personally, since I was 6 at the time, but I've heard about it. The most notable difference is that Clinton was heading to the South, where he had a clear advantage. If anyone in the field could replicate that, it would probably be Edwards, without the 'Comeback Kid' moniker of course. Edwards will almost certainly take South Carolina, and possibly Arizona.

Bubba Wheels · 01-26-2004, 06:47 PM

Its all moot anyway. No democrat stands a chance this year, which gives us all 4 more years of bought time to prepare for Hillary's reign. (Buy gold and stash supplies in the backyard/basement!)

Funny, I feel the exact opposite. Something like 4 more years of claiming I'm from Canada before it might be safe to move back. Then again, if Hillary gets elected in 2008, I might as well just move up there and claim permanent residence.

SI

BishopMVP · 01-27-2004, 06:54 AM

In most of the polls today, it's about 37%-25% Kerry over Dean, with Edwards in 3rd at about 13% and Clark falling even more. Before Iowa, Kerry and Edwards had the momentum and pulled out much better results than the polls suggested. We'll see if Dean and Edwards can do the same in New Hampshire.
