My advice to everyone is to just realize that like McCain, there are those here who don't like to discuss the issues. They would rather sling mud and distract people from the obvious, which is the McCain Campaign is faltering, and they're running scared. :)

Do you honestly believe that my happiness has anything to do with Obama or McCain? If you do, then let me help you out.....it doesn't. I don't know either man nor have I known any of the other men who were President nor any of the Governors of the state I live in and none of them have personally effected me.....regardless of the tax increases and whatever else they've pushed or passed.

Yes, I would be happy if McCain won but not because he won.....just because I'm a generally happy person.... :D

You seem to let this election encompass a good bit of your day..You do spend a good bit of time discussing this election on this thread...to have such a hands off approach to this debate.

So are you interested in how these candidate's will effect you..or not? Why do you even waste a second conversing about any of this if it means nothing to you?

No, Casey.

You're a bigot when you feel it's just fine to call an entire race "gooks". You waltz your tail back in here after a day and a half and act like you didn't post the garbage you did. That offended everyone in this thread, whether we agree with one another or not, and then posting a link to what the term 'gook' means was the [!@#$%^&*] icing on the cake.

As far as I'm concerned you owe everyone in this thread an appology for your comments. And don't bother asking me what the hell you said because it's been quoted. You always sprout off about how people offend you and how you are the one being treated unfairly, and then you say it's ok for McCain to be a damn racist and expect people to actually listen to you?

This will all be over soon, and if all goes well, you can really stew for the next 4 years when PRESIDENT Obama and VICE PRESIDENT Biden take this country in the direction it should go, instead of it being given to a out of touch, 6,000 year old bigot and his cheerleader running mate to push us all into oblivion.

Have A Nice Damn Day......or not, Casey. I no longer turuly give a damn.

I went and looked at the line chart. Obama's line clearly goes up. McCain's appears to go down a little and the return to where it was. According to that line chart, Obama is building a lead.

I'll repeat my mantra. Polls can be misleading. I think this race is really tight. I also don't think McCain's incredibly nasty campaign is NOT meant to turn undecideds toward him. I think it's meant to make people sick of the campaign so they stay home.

You know, we all talk about the debates and the effect they will have. They don't appear to have any. The economy seems to be the only driving force out there. I'm glad Obama pushed back, but I'd still like to see some ads with him just talking to the American public. The country needs a let's calm down message.

I actually give President Bush a little bit of credit for that. He is trying to calm people down and to say, it's going to take a while don't panic. Unfortunately, he has such little credibility.

There is only one issue right now: the economy.

      GH: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      By ranger1rg · Posted

      -- Weirdest red carpet ever at the Nurses' Ball. Every conversation was filled with snark and shade or outright insults, and we even got an on-camera arrest of Tracy -- while Congressman Drew (who's never in DC) stood there. I guess it was more interesting than the usual. -- Why did Gio walk the carpet with Joss? -- Sonny is usually escaping mobsters who want to kill him. So of course he accompanies his granddaughter on the carpet. On camera.

      As much as I love the Nurses Ball, the campiness of it all always comes off as strange and a little cringey, because GH isn't often like that. But whatevs, I'm looking forward to seeing what happens. The surprise with Kai was kinda sweet. I wish they had spent more time on that, and given us more of Trina's POV, instead of rushing through it and talking more about his surgery.  But yeah, poor Gio. He really should've escorted Emma instead of Joss

       I'm looking forward to seeing him perform though  And, poor Tracy too. She will never be the bad guy in this whole situation with Sonny, Drew, etc., no matter how Chris and Elizabeth (or Frank) choose to write it. Btw, since this is the Nurses Ball, where the hell is Nurse Liz?

      Considering that a soap opera hasn't been launched in over 25 years, I think the show is doing well. In 2025, you're not going to get a soap opera on the level of soaps you watched before the 1990s for a variety of reasons. - All scenes are filmed out of order.  No longer do shows do the live to tape process. - No longer are there rehearsals before filming the episodes. - Most of the greats retired/passed away without teaching a lot of the new generation how to produce or write a soap opera in the pre 2000 way. Also, this isn't filmed where soap operas were filmed so the show is using local talent that is hitting it out of the park.  It reminds me of the CBN soap Another life that used local talent in the Virginia beach area. Lastly, soaps take several months to get going.. and I think the show is in good shape after 56 episodes (at least compared to other soaps that started in the late 80s and 90s like Generations, SunSet Beach, Passions, etc)

      Cool, thank you for the perspective - helps me appreciate the story more. Totally makes sense - we know BB was so frustrated with the state of the show after its first 6 months that he was ready to cancel it.

      I couldn't agree more. It's all subjective.

      It should be better for a show airing in 2025. But that's just my take.
