McCain, Clinton, Obama together again in Senate

I wonder if crazy old man McCain is going to swing by the White House to get another hug from Prez 19%?

Maybe the three of them can all get together and sing "Kumbaya" together.

It's likely for McCain, seeing as he's already wrapped up the nomination and is likely thrilled at seeing the rivalry between the other two.

I can't believe these are the best selections we have to choose from. Where's Jimmy,GHW Bush, Dan Quayle, Bob Dole, Lloyd Bentszen somebody, anybody.....John Kerry! Give W another go! At least we know where he stands!

I was thinking they'd go out for beer, get plastered, agree to drop the whole campaign garbage and run the country as a triad.
Thats how Ben Franklin would have done it.

If I missed that much work, I would have been fired 4 months ago.

The other side of that is....McCain who?

You know, I am trying to cut through all the media spin, the off-handed comments and the accusations and just focus on two people and their two resumes. Afterall, we are trying to hire someone to be the CEO of our country. Someone with experience, someone with fortitude, intelligence and whom will work really, really hard for every American out there. For anyone to say that race and gender are not factors in this campaign or in the US is to be, well, out of touch. So, that said, how do we look at these two people fairly (without filters for race or gender) and pick the best candidate to beat McCain and win back the White house? Race is a factor, as is evident when prior to Senator Obama's arrival on the scene, African Americans, showed a strong support for Senator Clinton. Then, almost immediately, 80+% of African Americans threw their support behind a candidate with less experience, and did so why? Also, there are men (and women, oddly enough) who, when asked flat out if they would ever vote for a woman for President, say no. No reason, even if she had a better resume. So, that's gender bias. Ok, that said, we still need to cut through the clutter and the crap being flung by both sides and really figure out who we want to get things right and on track for our country. Just electing someone "likeable" who will "be a uniter not a divider" may just get us what we got last time someone said that (ie - Bush, for all you really young folks) - and is that worth the risk? Only each one of us can answer that for ourselves, after honestly researching the candidates' resumes. This decision and election is too important not to. Leave the knee-jerk, emotional votes to American Idol, not American Politics.

Umm, what about Ron Paul. He is still running for president. he has kept his morals the same for years. I hate how these writers don't mention him or say he has dropped out. He has not! So, do the right thing and save our country from the others. Vote Ron Paul for FREEDOM!

Praise Be
What do I see
Sitting in their senate chairs
Three senators normally not there
Senator Barack
Less action, more talk
Oh, there's Hillary C.
Oh, she'a been a busy bee
And Senator McCain
Trying for Prez again

Come on you three
you're in good company
A POW of the Viet Nam war
knocking on Iran's door
Former First Lady and Senator too
Some say "she's mean"; others "not true"
Then there's Obama
Bringing us the "hope and change" drama.

Three again for a vote
Americans take note
In November one is meant
To become our President.

3 losers running for president! How bout Colen Powell for president,& connie rice for vp. 2 black republicans that have the smarts to run this country.I wonder what all the black loud mouths and cry babies would do.

This is getting way out of hand and out of touch, our country has to be a fricken joke around the world. We are so scatter brained, greedy and in a rush that we can't even get our own country in order. The main focus that we should be asking about each one of these "candidates" is will they fix America or try to "save the world" again. Our economy is failing, this war is sky rocketing our debt, and our dependency on oil is a pure joke. We need to slow down focus, remove ourselves from the "world police" and get out of Iraq, focus our "war money" on a E-85 solution to eliminate the oil strangle hold on America, knock down our debt and focus on creating economic polices to fight the growing elimination of "classes" in this country. That does not even scratch the surface of how many other things I can think of we need to be doing HERE and not over there or there or over this way a bit or down there or up yonder. "America" constists of 50 states and our relationships to the ret of the world. We do not OWN the rest of the world.

So now ask yourself who out of these three "choices" will best fit?

"Umm, what about Ron Paul. He is still running for president."

HAHAHAHAHA!! Oh, I NEEDED a good laugh today! Thanks Nate, you made my day. Hee. Oh, gosh, Ron Paul. That's a good one. Oh, my sides are splitting over here...

Ron Paul got 1 or 2 insignicant votes last time I remember.

“Oh, gosh, Ron Paul. That's a good one. Oh, my sides are splitting over here...”

It’s too bad that you think that way, Jeff. Every time you say stuff like this you keep proving yourself to be a Republican, but not a conservative. Ron Paul is closer in his actions and ideology to the traditional Republican Party values (i.e. conservatism) than John McCain ever will be. Ron Paul is every bit a fiscal conservative as John McCain. Furthermore, Paul actually still believes in “small government,” whereas John McCain has signed off on the big government model in vogue since F.D.R. Ron Paul’s foreign policy views are the same as those stated by George Washington in his Farewell Address to Congress. (You should read it sometime.) John McCain, on the other hand, has signed off on the neo-conservative (read pseudo-conservative) stance favoring foreign military intervention for purposes other than furthering the basic goal of defending this country. The latter is a rather sharp departure from traditional Republican foreign policy. If you recall (which I bet you don’t), prior to President George H.W. Bush’s administration, the last Republican President to send this country into a foreign war of any size or magnitude was William McKinley back in 1896. Ron Paul also believes in individual liberty, whereas John McCain has either sponsored or voted for bills which compromise civil liberties – like the McCain-Feingold BCRA. (You do know, don’t you, that being a conservative – as opposed to merely a Republican – does not mean being in favor of a police state?)

Unlike you, the only way I will ever vote for John McCain is if the Democrats nominate Hillary Clinton as their candidate. Even then, I will hold my nose in the voting booth and hope that he won’t tarnish the image of the Republican Party and conservatism as much as Duh’bya did.

DON'T BE DUPED!!!

Large numbers of Republicans have been voting for Barack Obama in the DEMOCRATIC primaries, and caucuses. Because they feel he would be a weaker opponent against John McCain. And because they feel that a Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama ticket would be unbeatable. And also because with a Clinton and Obama ticket you are almost 100% certain to get quality, affordable universal health care very soon.

But first, all of you have to make certain that Hillary Clinton takes the democratic nomination and then the Whitehouse. NOW! is the time. THIS! is the moment you have all been working, and waiting for. You can do this America. “Carpe diem” (harvest the day).

I think Hillary Clinton see’s a beautiful world of plenty, and comfort for all. She is a woman, and a mother. And it’s time America. Do this for your-self, and your children’s future. You will have to work together on this and be aggressive, relentless, and creative. Americans face an even worse catastrophe ahead than the one you are living through now.

You see, the medical and insurance industry mostly support the republicans with the money they ripped off from you. And they don’t want you to have quality, affordable universal health care. They want to be able to continue to rip you off, and kill you and your children by continuing to deny you life saving medical care that you have already paid for. So they can continue to make more immoral profits for them-self.

Hillary Clinton has actually won by much larger margins than the vote totals showed. And lost by much smaller vote margins than the vote totals showed. Her delegate count is actually much higher than it shows. And higher than Obama’s. HILLARY CLINTON IS ALREADY THE TRUE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE!

As much as 30% of Obama's primary, and caucus votes are Republicans trying to choose the weakest democratic candidate for McCain to run against. These Republicans have been gaming the caucuses where it is easier to vote cheat. This is why Obama has not been able to win the BIG! states primaries. Even with Republican vote cheating help.

Hillary Clinton has been out manned, out gunned, and out spent 2 and 3 to 1. Yet Obama has only been able to manage a very tenuous, and questionable tie with Hillary Clinton.

If Obama is the democratic nominee for the national election in November he will be slaughtered. Because the Republican vote cheating help will suddenly evaporate. All of this vote fraud and republican manipulation has made Obama falsely look like a much stronger candidate than he really is. YOUNG PEOPLE. DON’T BE DUPED! Think about it. You have the most to lose.

The democratic party needs to fix this outrage. I suggest a Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama ticket now! Everyone needs to throw all your support to Hillary Clinton NOW! So you can end this outrage against YOU the voter, and against democracy.

I think Barack Obama has a once in a life time chance to make the ultimate historic gesture for unity, and change in America by accepting Hillary Clinton’s offer as running mate. Such an act now would for ever seal Barack Obama’s place at the top of the list of Americas all time great leaders, and unifiers for all of history. But the time to act is soon.

The democratic party, and the super-delegates have a decision to make. Are the democrats, and the democratic party going to choose the DEMOCRATIC party nominee to fight for the American people. Or are the republicans going to choose the DEMOCRATIC party nominee through vote fraud, and gaming the DEMOCRATIC party primaries, and caucuses.

Fortunately the Clinton’s have been able to hold on against this fraudulent outrage with those repeated dramatic comebacks of Hillary Clinton’s. Only the Clinton’s are that resourceful, and strong. Hillary Clinton is your NOMINEE. They are the best I have ever seen.

“This is not a game” (Hillary Clinton)

How many more times are you going to cut and paste the same message? It's getting rather old.

What I want to know is what were Senators Obama and Clinton talking about when they sat together for a few minutes - with no one in listening distance. By all accounts, they seemed to have a very spirited discussion.

Greetings, just an interesting site to compare voting records (and how many they've been missing while campaigning!)
