As long as we're using Diebold voting machines, does it really matter how much speculation we do?

Except few people think rationally about Hillary. It seems that half the country thinks she's a wild-eyed radical. But she's not.

Cheney is a vicious and corrupt indivual---but understands using any means to gain an end---and his arguements are begiling but logically flawed---he plays well to the GOP faithful,
scaring all with doomday predictions---but he will look like a hell of a fool if Al-Quida ever does attack the US again--which would be childs play for any terrorist organization, given how little has actually been done by homeland security.

Actually, sad though it may be, I bet the country would huddle even closer under the Republican wing if we were attacked again. Suddenly all that mess about fearmongering, torturing people, illegal wiretaps, and declaring war everywhere will start to look like an attempt to fix the problem, whereas the Democrats will be "weak on terror". *shudder*

Cheney couldn't win an election for dog catcher. His approval rating is lower than Michael Jackson's.

I hope that it does not come to Cheney versus Hillary. I will vote independent if that comes to pass.

I'll put her approval rating up against his anyday.

Sure, if you don't leave New York.

She is about as popular out here in the Heartland as Jane Fonda.

And just a hint ... approval ratings do not win elections.

Whatever you want to tell yourself chief. She's not my ideal candidate, but I can't think of one that is as unelectable as Cheney. Dems won't switch sides just to avoid voting for a woman.
