I think most democrats will dislike him automatically from day 1 for the same reason that most republicans disliked Hilary from day 1.

happythoughts 0 #53 February 28, 2006 Quote>What is it that you particularly dislike about him? I think most democrats will dislike him automatically from day 1 for the same reason that most republicans disliked Hilary from day 1. Jeb's not a lawyer. Maybe it is wrong to have first impressions, but... she definitely sucks at it. Saturday afternoon, my buddy grabbed his g/fs butt as she was standing between us. Mistakenly, she turned and gave me "that look". Hillary has that look all the time. She can't seem to carry off a fakey smile. I think that Hillary is a very capable politician and lawyer (that may/may not be a compliment). However, she appears to be a person that you instinctively distrust. By contrast, Bill mastered the "it's a fine car... that's just yellow primer" technique. Super-schmoozer. Jeb has always appeared (and it could just be appearance, I've never met him) to be "at work". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ViperPilot 0 #56 February 28, 2006 Well maybe you're right happy. I guess we'll see. My post wasn't meant to infer he's an idiot or anything, I just have never seen him as having that ambition to go for the presidency. But, he could come out in a year and say he is, so who knows.

ViperPilot 0 #57 February 28, 2006 Well Giulliani has done a lot of good things and has proven himself as a "good" politician and leader, even if it was only at the city level. Plus if the Dem's go on the bitching fest of him never serving in Congress, he could always play the "I'm an outsider" card. He's got a chance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

warpedskydiver 0 #60 February 28, 2006 I wonder what it's like for a woman with no apparent close friends?(Hillary) and Ted doesn't count he just wants to drive her home, or consume her ...since he looks like jabba the hut Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ROK 0 #61 February 28, 2006 In my opinion... This country is ready for a change. The last couple of elections and our ever changing world has left a bad taste in a lot of peoples mouths. I predict that you'll see women running on both sides, for the Vice Presidency. Hillary makes me sick to my stomach, but she is intelligent. Think LONG TERM goal. If they produce the right woman for office, I'd vote for her in a flat minute. Although, I'd vote against Hillary, even if her opponet was a dye in the wool liberal (I can't believe that I said that). It's time that we realize that women are the superior sex anyway. Let's all us guys take a break and go have some beers... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy9o8 2 #63 February 28, 2006 QuoteGiulliani? you must joking!! Mr. Family morals who had an affair and dumped his wife. You were talking about Guiliani? I thought you were talking about: Ronald Reagan (he did it, too). No, wait... Bob Dole (he did it, too). No, wait... Newt Gingrich (he did it, too). No, wait... Aw, crap, I've lost track. Never mind. P.S. - for those who might invoke Ted Kennedy, or JFK, or LBJ, you'd be more or less right. Of course, Eisenhower probably falls into that category, too. The point being, neither side has the right to be morals police, so when one side does, it's being hypocritical. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brierebecca 0 #66 February 28, 2006 QuoteJeb seems to reflect the opinions of the general populace. He doesn't screw up a lot. People generally like him. I live in Florida and I work for the State. People here do not generally like him. His education initiatives suck. Brie"Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs.

wmw999 2,541 #67 February 28, 2006 I have a friend who grew up in Midland, close to the Bushes. He said that Jeb was a really nice guy (George he didn't like as much). Just a piece of information. We've had enough Bushes for awhile though. Wendy W.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it.

happythoughts 0 #74 March 3, 2006 QuoteAs a political cartoonist -- I hope so! Right off the Yahoo site, there was a link for Jokes. Bill Clinton and Monica eventually had to have separate links. Normally, humorists just change the names and use the same jokes, year after year. Bob Hope did it on his Christmas tour for 30 years. It was refreshing to have some new material. The Reagans were fairly boring. I always thought that Nancy looked like one of the characters from Mars Attacks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
