I guess i would go with H. Clinton .. over that dude Abama (or whatever his name is .. - sorry i am in Canada.. and don't pay such close attention to candidate's last names' spelling)

Just mostly catch on CNN about what's on..

Cuz i think Democrats should take it this time (Republicans / Bush, etc .. DID 'enough' already to-date, lol) .. and as Bush can't be re-elected.. - i think Democrats should take it this time (maybe?)

So then ..talking ONLY about Democrats.. and as i said, i prefer H. Clinton .. BUT .. not sure if she will win anyhow.. - it's a close race as you know.. and it's VERY possible that she won't win...

Shes' already served her two terms when Billiary was in office.That's was eight years too many. Anyone but those two would have to be better is my choice.

Well..

I am truly undecided. I like Rudy, I liked Thompson and Duncan Hunter..

So it's obvious that all the people I like are losers... Maybe hold my nose and vote for McCain.

Hillary is my state senator.

She has done NOTHING for us here in WNY.
Oh, we've had lots of promises - and lies is all we got.

I have not decided on any other candidate yet.

I can understand Darkman's position concerning Hillary being from a socialist country but the Americans? Hillary has quoted Carl Marx in her campaign speechs. Do any of you know who Carl Marx is? Was nothing learned from the Bush era concerning having a single party in control of everything? You all now want to do the exact same thing with Democrats?

Do none of you remember all the dead bodies when Whitewater was being investigated? Everyone who could testify against them ended up dead. All the people the Clinton's had immediate contact with that died from single gunshot wounds to the head? I really think if Obama gets a lead on her people in his camp will start coming up dead. Do you really want a President who will start crying when sitting down with serious leaders from not so friendly nations?

Say what you want about Bush but where was Hillary on 9/11? Nobody knows where she was. I know where she wasn't and that was NYC! Senator of NY and nowhere to be found.

Yup... yup.. - you are correct ...

that's besides the point anyhow - but all the politicians ARE liars and crooks.. (the biggest ones may i add.... - well maybe some evangelists can give 'em run for their money, lol)

So that said.. - they are all good when they are sound asleep late at night))))

Other than that .. they are there .. just for personal prestige, power, contacts, connections, high perk benefits, etc, etc ....

'Nuff said i think.. - don't get me started, another words, lol

I know who Carl Marx was!
Even .. who Lenin was, lol... (was taught good in school)

But.. Wow!
That's some 'heavy-duty' stuff there! .. - "Single gunshot wounds to the head" .. and all

as to me "being from a socialist country" - are you talking about Canada .. or Russia now? (lol)

If about Canada .. - well i am here already
(the boat already arrived / sailed here, lol)

If about Russia .. - well .. don't really care much for socialists / communist, etc.. or politics all together (that's why i guess we left there)
If i liked 'em so much.. i guess i d "stay put" there...
But things changed (somewhat) even there nowadays... (some democracy, etc)

As to why i d prefer Hillary .. - why NOT lol.. - maybe 'cuz she is a female (something different i guess for a change) .. also maybe 'cuz she is, INDEED a Clinton (more controversy, etc)
If Bush(es), Kennedy(es), etc can "get in" 'cuz of the name.. - why NOT her!

Other than that, as I said above, they are all crooks (to me anyhow)

How about Monica then maybe... (jokin')

Actually, if the other democrat "gets it" (sorry keep on forgetting his name, even though they were just talking on CNN about him not long ago) .. - will be kind of interesting and unique to follow as well (him being black, etc...)

Basically some interesting, intriguing times are still ahead... - should be a good race.. - considering that Republicans are there as well (which can't be over-looked or forgotten) .. - Politics is a funny game .. - you NEVER know.. who knows.. maybe Republicans will "get it" again still .. anything can happen

[EDIT] .. there .. it's Obama (just saw it on CNN) ;-) .. so i was pretty close in my above post there (where i think i said Abama)

I know Bush isn't in NYC generally.. - but when 9/11 was happening .. what was he doing, while being told about the terrible events..
As i recall (they showed it on tv .. or in some documentary movie), he was in a classroom with bunch of kids .. and while being told about what's going on .. he behaved like nothing was happening.. smiling at kids, etc....

Ya.. he DID make it to NY .. after all .. and gave that 'famous' speech at the ruins there.. - "... and now they WILL HEAR from us!" (or something like that .. with croud cheering .. )

Ya.. 'they' DID 'hear' from him.. and still are 'listening' to him looks like...
... but meanwhile it's looking more and more like 2nd Vietnam.. like a swamp so to speak.. - they got in there.. and now can't get out....

Hopefully they achieved something there.. - time will show
But it's a crazy, dangerous region down there .. with Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, Saudi Arabia.. etc .. near by...

Well they DID get Sadam, i suppose, .. who more likely had, really, nothing to do with 9/11 anyhow

But .. after 9/11 .. and understandably so .. something HAD to be done..
and everyone, who can think logically, knew hat it won't be a guaranteed success
