The press are all ove Obama when he makes a mistake but Clintons peeps think the press shouldbe trashing his healthcar plan and stuff , which is her job.

The whole think about her whining about be asked the questions first is so LAME! Another thing about SNL thing that was like a free ad for Hillary and her peeps where in on it.

If one of Obama's Entertainment peeps did something like that she would be a having a COW!

One more thing about the press if Obama had messed like Clinton did on the whole name thing and that would been the talk of the talking heads.

Clinton did it and hardly a whisper.

The MSNBC stuff about Hilary and her daughter where wrong and Obama's cmap said so. It's too bad the Clinton camp didn't say the Photo thing agianst Obama was wrong as well.

There is a bit of controversy up here in Canada today over this NAFTA discussion during the debate last night and on the campaign trail.

CTV, the leading news network up here learned that a few weeks ago a senior Obama official contacted the Canadian ambassador and said NAFTA was not going to be renegotiated or scrapped, anything said about it is just political rhetoric.....

Well Obama said last night that he would in deed opt out of it, or at least suggest it....

Uhh she did say at the debate that those actions would not be condoned by her, nor would they be something she would expect in the campaign. If she found out somebody did it in her camp, she would ask them to resign.

Obama also made it clear that he is certain neither she nor somebody from her campaign sent the photo

I agree about trade being fair. I support NAFTA so long as it guarantees equal trade (meaning we trade $500 worth of goods to Mexico, they give us $500 in return and the output generated through the trade, e.g. selling the goods on the market, is what creates jobs).

The guy you are thinking of (The French one). His name is Joseph Jacques Jean Chretien

Yea I wonder who would vote for someone like Harper...I cannot imagine any of the French in Quebec and Nova Scotia voting for him since the French on the other side of the world (France) are against Iraq...and this PM favors a president obsessed with Iraq. Those in Ontario really have no reason to give him a vote since it tends to be liberal there (or of the party that Harper is not part of)

Maybe the Prairie Provinces of Manitoba, Alberta, Saskatchewan?

Anybody know how popular bush is in Texas? Because I find it interesting that Bush slams obama right before the texas primaries when both hillary/obama have been dissing him for months now and just now he finally decides to speak out against obama???

From what I have heard, EK70, is that he is popular in some parts of Texas but not all of them. He is pretty much held in contempt in Austin since Austin is a very liberal city. Odds are they do not like him in Houston either. But Dallas and San Antonio seem to have a strong Bush support base. I think Bush just slamming him right now is typical of Bush...he waits and waits before he makes his move. That is what happened with 9/11...he waited until the twin towers collapsed before pursuing terrorists intent on harming the country. He also waited two months before sending in combat troops to Afghanistan to overthrow the Taliban regime as well as fight Al Quaida there (essentially also the country where OBL was located). Let's not forget he waited a good seven minutes on the day of 9/11 reading a book before he acted on the news of the country under attack.

BTW, here is an interesting article on John McCain:

McCain's Birth in Panama Canal Zone Raises Questions

Feb. 28 (Bloomberg) -- Republican presidential candidate John McCain's birth in the Panama Canal Zone is raising some concerns about whether he can legitimately seek the presidency, the New York Times reported.

The Constitution states that only a ``natural-born citizen'' can serve as president, the Times said. McCain was born on a military installation in the Canal Zone in 1936, where his mother and father, a Navy officer, were stationed, the Times said.

Yea but I am not even sure if it is a military base...either way, with the ticket likely to be Hillary/Obama or the other way around, McCain will still lose. There is talk he is considering putting Condi on as VP. If he does, he can expect a loss by a landslide.

LOL about Huckalooney. I have hard "HuckABible" before but not that one. Too funny ;)

This Obama/Clinton race is getting bit to nasty for my taste. It's time for a winner to be chosen.

If they keep this stuff up McCain is going be able to sit back and just play ads of the loser bash the winner.

It's my hope than someone wins HUGE on Tuesday so this whole deal can come to a end if it goes on any longer McCain will win in November.

Well odds are, South, that nobody on the Democrats will win big. The race in Texas is a dead heat while, in Ohio, Hillary has like a five percentage point lead. But I agree about the negative stuff....I just wish it did not come to that but you knew it would eventually happen. It always does in politics/campaigning

I just got some facts from a friend of mine at the Hillary campaign. She said that 49% of the registered Democrats in Texas already voted. 70% of the women within that 49% went for Hillary

I'm still on Obama's side but him getting into the gutter with the Clintons has turned me off a bit.

Clinton needs to win both Ohio and Texas to have a real chance at the nom and Obama needs to win both to end it one of these things dosen't happen and the only thing the Clintons can do is try and RUIN Obama which will give McCain the win.

If someone has a pretty big lead the Super D's need to go over to their side and end this thing.

    • @TaoboiI ran into Dani’s favorite party planner again tonight

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
    • Isnt’t this storyline similar to the Cameron Kirsten situation though? Sharon thought she killed him. He ended up being alive and Sharon was being tormented with thinking she was seeing his face everywhere and that’s how we got that iconic scene with her and Nikki in the sewers.   I understand in Mariah’s case this is different circumstances but it does seem like a play on that whole thing. Maybe I’m wrong. I just wish if they were going to make any character follow in Sharon’s foot steps it would be Faith. Mariah wasn’t even raised by her, and her personality is different. I would expect her to take a different path. I understand I could be completely jumping ahead because the storyline hasn’t even played out yet but we’ll see. 
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven Monica was completely without redeeming qualities at this point. I always found the whole Monica = Carly narrative regressive, as I don't think shows comparing characters so heavily is ever a great idea, but she's actually worse than Carly was. Was it the Pollocks who had Leslie have a miscarriage?  Giving her a child, especially by rape, was not a good idea, but a part of me wishes they'd committed to it just to see what story it might have had in later years.
