Just becuase people have sterling personal lives doesn't mean they can't be criticized. (I don't recall Democrats ever limiting their criticism to social-values hypocrites.) If people disagree with Pelosi's viewpoints, or think that Carter and Obama are incompetent, then they have a right to express their dissatisfaction (much like liberals have the right to reject conservatives who lead perfect personal lives).

This is coming from somebody who is a bellwether of independence and non-partisanship. Seriously though, I am surprised you believe that I think I am right all the time, given that you previously trashed me for being wishy-washy.

Did I mention your name?

The evening hosts on MSNBC are giving Newt, Willard and the Republicans the blues. That party comes one step closer to destroying itself every single day. I really hope the moderates take back control after that party gets destroyed under a year from now. If we want working government again, I hope that happens?

I really don't know how he thinks he'll do well in the GE. She made him look very bad, and his temperament showed through.

The Tax-Dodging Owners Of Zuccotti Park Owe The City $139,000 In Back Taxes | It turns out that the owners of Zuccotti Park — the historic site of Occupy Wall Street — have been engaged in some of the very same tax-dodging that many of the protesters were enraged about. The “city Finance Department says park owner Brookfield Properties and its parent company, Brookfield US Corp., currently owe the city more than $139,000 in unpaid business taxes from 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009.”

Liberal bias in the Obamamedia? No way! | Nealz Nuze | www.boortz.com http://m.boortz.com/weblogs/nealz-nuze/2011/dec/06/liberal-bias-obamamedia-no-way/

Casey008, thanks so much for your post. To listen to some folks here, the mainstream media (not counting FOX News) is dominated by conservatives.

Chris Matthews gave some rare praise to Romney today after he declined to attend Donald Trump's circus debate. The former Massachusetts governor also got an endorsement from Dan Quayle. While everybody realizes that this endorsement is worth diddly squat, at least Mr. Quayle had vastly superior qualifications to be VP than our current president had in 2008.

My goodness.

Or Romney, presumably.

I feel he's right.

Chris basically bashed Obama a few weeks ago, as well as have a number of major DNC boosters. I still believe BAM will pull an LBJ and Hillary Clinton will be drafted. Obama is now polling lower than Carter and has not hit bottom yet. Only a strike on Iran can save Bam but this will piss off the anti-Israel left flank. People, today, want a centrist and Clinton can play that role long enough to win.

Saving ATWT, other people (myself included) have been suspecting this as well. While I think that the chances of Obama dropping out are less than 50%, it certainly is a possiblity; everything depends what the polls look like at the time of the Democratic Convention. If Obama looks much more vulnerable than he is today, the party establishment will put massive pressure on him to hand over all of his delegates to Hillary Clinton.

When LBJ dropped out in 1968, Democratic voters at least had other candidates to choose from; a sleazy, behind-the-scenes switcheroo at the convention is something that is totally up the Clinton's alley (and would rob ordinary Democrats from having a say in who their nominee would be). (Something similar to this scenario actually happened in 2002 in NJ: with the election about one month away, scandal-plagued Senator Robert Toricelli suddenly dropped his re-election bid and Democratic Party bosses replaced him with former Senator Frank Lautenberg.) Although Hillary herself cannot do much to promote such a scheme (since she is SOS), Bill has been pimping the Clinton brand (and trying to overshadow Obama) for quite some time, such as when he recently wrote a book concerning Clintonian solutions for today's economic problems. The sad truth of the matter is that if Obama does drop out, Hillary will win the general election in a cakewalk. (On the bright side, however, at least Hillary--despite her sleaziness and thurst for power--is competent, so people will feel that the economic situation isn't completely hoepless.)
