Quote:Obama's message of unity and hopefulness really resonates with me, enough that I can overlook areas where our politics aren't exactly in sync. The US needs a leader that can do something to combat the cynicism that is politics as usual, and Obama's the first guy I've seen in a long time who's even trying to do that.Why you presume Obama will be able to do that if he is able to win the election could use a little elaboration. Right now, he's engaged in a sales job: he is the product. There is an immense difference between being able to get elected, and having what it takes to be a good president.
W ought to be a shining example of that, as was Bill Clinton.
Quote:He made an unannounced visit to my town yesterday, too. I wasn't at the right place at the right time to catch him, unfortunately.His visit to Corpus Christi was a fine example of what a load of rotters politicians are.
Quote: Oh, and Occhi, would you kiss your mother with that mouth?I have, and will continue to do so. It is a multi purpose device. It adapts to whatever situation is to hand.
No one trick ponies in this corral.
