More importantly, Dodd adds one more super delegate to Barack's total.  20 minutes until the debate.

Quote from: my local news station
Is homosexuality ''fixed at birth'' or a choice?

It is ''fixed at birth'', genetic. 32%         

It is a choice. 54%

There is no strong evidence either way. 14%
            
Total: 1643 votes



on another note, Hillary appears to be backing down from perceived aggression.

MSNBC!

on another note, Russert was being an ass the entire debate. between him constantly interrupting and hammering Clinton to his stupid anti-Semitism questions to Obama. ugh

Also, this was the first debate where i think Obama was clearly the winner

After that trainwreck, "winner" doesn't really mean much.

But Clinton, you really shouldn't make comments about how the  press hates you! It does not endear you to the American public!

Can I just say that The Onion's profile of Ron Paul is fantastic?

With the Ron Paul supporters having silently evaporated, let's talk about the other candidates again.

The demagogy continues with the Republican party showing a photo of Obama in traditional Kenyan clothes and talks about the "growing chorus of Americans concerned about the future of the nation of Israel ... if Sen. Barack Hussein Obama is elected president of the United States." So many people are afraid of anything Middle-Eastern, they've resorted to just plainly stating his full name in order to damage his reputation.

Nice quote from the article:

"The left always finds something to pick at other than to describe the issues; we're not surprised at all." (Bill Hobbs, GOP Communications Director)

Man, those left guys... all the same!

Yeah, as I stated before, my parents are deathly afraid of and simultaneously disgusted by Obama. My father asked me, and I quote "You would vote for someone with HUSSEIN in their name???" Also my mother repeatedly calls him "Osama" (not on purpose).

I'm assuming it is their fundamentally conservative Christian friends who are feeding them this bullshit because I refuse to believe that their only other source of news (the Polish news station TVN24) is stating such propaganda.

hahahaha man

it is so good that your parents are actually deathly afraid of, and disgusted by, his middle name being hussein.  my mom thinks some pretty crazy shit too but she's nowhere near as bad as this.  WHAT CAN YA DO i guess but i don't know if i would be able to keep from yelling at them if they said shit like that.  it's gross that they're so transparent as to call him by his full name in an attempt to slyly imply that there's some association, but i thought it was worse when huckabee or whoever the fuck it was "accidentally" confused osama bin laden and barack obama during some random speech, multiple times.  that was disgusting and overt enough that, in comparison, this seems almost tame.

Smells of desperation and pandering to the biggest demographic in rural Ohio: Blue collar White "Dixiecrats" who are backhandedly racist and are VERY CONCERNED about who is going to answer that red phone....

Quote from: Bill Clinton
Now, one of Clinton's laws of politics is this. If one candidate is trying to scare you and the other one is trying to get you to think, if one candidate is appealing to your fears and the other one is appealing to your hopes, you better vote for the person who wants you to think and hope.
