<description>commonsense: Drunken Noodle, out of lack of originality, is quoting lyrics from OutKast&#039;s Church :)

Drunken Noodle:

To quote Outkast (I love em too) yet again:

&quot;You need to git up, git out, 
cut that bullshit out
Ain&#039;t you sick and tired of having to do without
And what up with all these questions?
As act as though you know somethin I don&#039;t. 
Do you have any suggestions?&quot;

In short: If you can&#039;t stay on topic.....EXIT=&gt;

...you get the drift. 

:)

<description>Life, is nothin but a dream, so peaceful and serene
Unless you&#039;re bein evil then you on the devil&#039;s team
Well I receive what you want to believe
But soon you&#039;ll have to sew those bad seeds
Please, any man can ask, to get a pass
or a cleansing of sin to grant another chance
Perhaps another glance of the light at the end of the tunnel
Talk to the coach or break out the huddle
Whatever should you fumble your rebuttal should be subtle
Cause he who lives in the upper room is never gullible
As you survey the syllables and sentences
The question that I&#039;m merely tryin to pose is as simple as me sayin

<description>I think Iraq has improved substantially since gates and petraeus took over. Rummy was an ostrich. I expect significat improvement by the end of the year. However, one cannot say the same wrt Iran. They are spoiling for a fight. </description>

I have read about this across the Internet but am not sure what to believe or what not believe. Personally i believe in the political process and the reality is that John Kerry ran a poor campaign in 2004 and lost. 

McCain will have to find a Titanic boat (vs Swift boat) to sink the Dems this year</description>

<description>chandra:

only yesterday i made a reference to my fickle memory...but really....it ain&#039;t THAT fickle!

the 2000 elections were stolen by the republicans

(ok no cut n pastes - but just run your own research....read up on the new american century) 

the &lt;i&gt;neoconzix&lt;/i&gt; saw they could implement their agenda better through dubya

and when you do your homework on the new american century you will see for yourself how many of them  were eased into the dubya administration and maneuvered this (record holder of the lowest IQ of all US presidents) president into the iraq quagmire and in this lame duck year they nearly succeeded to drag US into iran as well

(somebody in the pentagon &quot;released&quot; the study that said Iran never had a nuclear programme to release the air out of the &lt;i&gt;neoconzix&lt;/i&gt; driven baloon)

khair, do your homework:)

We dont need a third party, we just need the Govt to mind its own business. We need a Govt that prepares the poorest to particpate in the Global eceonomy. On all the other things the govt counts to nothing ;-)

arre baba...ye kya cut paste kiye ho aap? :-)

Well, i dont know about Florida. I mean, it was depressing at that time but if one recalls the campaign that Gore ran, it was embarassing to say the least. Bush campaigned very well in 2000. He had an outstanding record then - he won two terms as Gov in Texas, was promising change in washington, staying away from nation building, cutting deficits and most importantly he came with an outstanding reputation of having worked with the Dems in Texas. We know what he did once in Govt. That is what wil happen with Rajneesh Obama :-)

<description>and the apology :

&lt;blockquote&gt;These led to an apology from Associate Justice John Paul Stevens for the behavior of the 5-to-4 majority of the Court in the matter of Bush v. Gore. Loser Bush then brought on undeclared wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, as well as the greatest deficits in our history and the revelations that the policies of an Administration that--much as Count Dracula fled cloves of garlic--flees all accountability were responsible for the murder and torture of captive men, between 70 percent and 90 percent of whom, by the Pentagon&#039;s estimate, had been swept up at random, earning us the hatred of a billion Muslims and the disgust of what is called the civilized world.&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

He lost both Ohio and Florida.

http://edition.cnn.com/ELECTION/2000/results/OH/frameset.exclude.html

The point i was making is he could have been President without winning anything in the south. I expect the same for the Dems this year. 

Unless of course the republicans do something really stupid or the economy goes to the dogs.....

but he did win (ohio for sure)  ;)

&lt;i&gt;in 2000 Gore would have won the elections without winning the South, all he had to do was to win Ohio or Florida.&lt;/i&gt;

Actually I dont think anybody has become president without winning a few in the south since 1956 (Eisenhower). 
However,in 2000 Gore would have won the elections without winning the South, all he had to do was to win Ohio or Florida. The fact of the matter is that the margins are huge in the south and therefore the dems will have to expect a massive swing to win a few electoral votes . One can however assume some states in the mountains and the mid-west to swing blue. </description>

I am not sure what you mean by coming back to the White House. They are there now Bush being Repub. It is possible that Obama or Hillary can lose to the Repub nominee.  Do not underestmate their election fighing skill. </description>
