May have to bring some clips on our cruise in two weeks. :)

This will be my tactic. I'm a large nearly 40 polish man who can play dumb. I think I'll be fine. ;)

So, the answer is.... Give Royal more money. Umm, I think we can do better than that. How about the #1 solution is everyone pushes Royal to put policies in place to fix the problem? They charge us 25 bucks if we forget to turn in a towel, so I bet they can come up with a way to fix this problem.

Maine's not looking good. The anti-marriage folks have a 15,000 vote lead...http://elections.nj.com/dynamic/fi...

Don't get me wrong. I greatly respect John McCain. I respect anyone who serves our country, and more so when they sacrifice as much as Senator McCain has. That being said, his time to be President has come and gone. If this was 2000, I would seriously consider supporting him, but at his age and this time in our nation, we need a new generation. I hope he continues to serve in the Senate, but is time for a new type of leader. One who understands today's culture and has the foresight to remember where we came from. It is time for Barack Obama.

He is covering his bases. If Obama doesn't give him the nod, he can say it was because he said he didn't want it. If he does get the offer, he can stand by his word, or say he changed his mind. Either way, he wins. Very smart.

Once again, this is why I can not and will not vote Republican. The Religious Right has bastardized the party.

Re: Another Team of Rivals? -- Political Wire

BigMac — Wed, 28 May 2008 20:16:48 -0000

I am for a cabinet of the smartest people. If that means there are rivals, or in the case of the Obama Administration, Republicans, so be it. Partisan politics need to end when the governing starts. However, I do not believe that a President Obama could trust Senator Clinton as his Vice President. She has shown that the need for her to win out weighs his need to govern. Now, some may see that as an affront to Senator Clinton. It is not. She may truly believe that she is the best candidate. However, you can not have that type of person openly working to undermine the President's Administration from with. Senator Clinton can not prove that she would not try to become the President in 2012, so she should not be trusted with such an important position in the White House.

Governor Rendell is showing loyalty, but he also knows that it is time to move forward. I can't argue with that. Come June 3, he'll be stumping for the next President of the United States... Barack Obama.

Yes; because, you have never been told a story by a relative that turned out inaccurate. I say inaccurate and not false because his uncle did help to liberate a concentration camp. Just not Auschwitz.

Re: Barr Gets Libertarian Nod -- Political Wire

BigMac — Mon, 26 May 2008 21:49:26 -0000

Sorry to disagree, Jake, but as a Democrat I am very happy with John McCain as the nominee. The religious right will stay home, and the neo-cons will vote for Barr. This is going to be a good year for Barack Obama.

Re: Barr Gets Libertarian Nod -- Political Wire

BigMac — Mon, 26 May 2008 21:48:19 -0000

I would like to thank the Libertarian party for giving the GOP their Ralph Nader. It is about time.

I watched this thing on CSPAN. You could tell the real Libertarian's were very upset when the Neo-Cons took over.

Judging by TWP's use of race, your logic is going to fall flat with him.

But, but, but... if she won the primary, doesn't it mean he can't win in the general? *note sarcasm*

BigMac — Fri, 23 May 2008 01:37:27 -0000

You hit the nail on the head. On many issues, I would side with conservatives. Unfortunately, there is not a conservative party in America. There is the Democrats and the Religious Right.

The best part about this is it will ensure that Rev. Wright is not mentioned in the general. McCain's skeletons nullify that argument.

Not that I expect respectful comments from you, but the man was just told he has a brain tumor; for god's sake. Can we leave the politics out of it for a few days?

Re: Kennedy Wants Wife to Take Senate Seat -- Political Wire

BigMac — Fri, 23 May 2008 00:43:03 -0000

Good you imagine having that conversation? I knew this man was strong, but now I have an even greater respect for him and his family. They have been through hell more times than most, and they still have the strength to move forward.

Re: Rove Thinks Clinton Stronger Candidate -- Political Wire

The whites and blacks thing is getting old. I'm as white as they come, and my car has an Obama bumper sticker. Race on matters for the racist who will not vote for him either way. Those people, thank god, are a slim minority.

I have serious doubts that we lose Michigan. I'm sorry to say Florida is Red, and it is going to stay that way (no matter who the nominee is.) That leaves Ohio. It is definitely in play. Like 04, it should decide the election again. That being said, all the numbers point to an Obama win. Voter registration is up. Turnout is up. The numbers are dismal for Bush.

Should we really be listening to a man who is working towards a "permanent Republican majority?"

I'm also looking forward to Senator Al Franken.
