One question... Why's Randi going on and on about..

[ObaMania]

.. how cute Roberts is? She doesn't really appear to give a shit and looks like she's trying to frame some alternate debate.

IMO, the dude looks like Greg Kinnear. Is that cute?

1. I think she's doing a superior job of revealing the criminal corruption,..

,...of the BushCo/neoCON cabal. SHE IS FOCUSED!!!

I luv her,...she's great!!!

2. *LOL* She just said to think of Roberts as a "human shield".

[ObaMania]

8. I'm not complaining or anything..

.. just asking.

I just thought on an issue like this, she'd come out screaming. Instead, she's laid back, laughing, and mellow on the subject.

Who knows? Maybe we should all take our queue from her.

3. Not listening right now, but ...

Could it be that she's making a point about 1. that's what he has to offer 2. evil in a nice package is still evil?

Stephanie Miller today was ranting about the same thing--that Roberts is a 'nice shiny Republican'--yet another white guy from the white with good teeth who could give fuckall about the average joe and even less for the average jane.

4. I just looked up his photo for the first time.

He's not disgusting, but I would put him in the "not my type" category. Looks slickly smarmy to me but that may just be because I'm familiar with his ideology.

5. Yes,

Greg Kinnear is very cute.

Roberts is good looking, for a politician. You've heard the famous line: "Politics is show business for ugly people."

6. I think he's bugeyed creepy looking. But that's only on

super double secret background with chocolate chips. And frankly, I don't care what nominees look like. Is this something the so-called heartland womenfolk care about?

As an aside, I've decided that the East and West coasts of America are the real heartland. If you look at a map of the homes of the vast majority of Americans serving or killed in Afghanistan and Iraq, it's the coastal states. So it helps to recall that the heart has 2 distinctive chambers and needs both for human survival.

We and the midwest are the heartland.

7. It was probably mentioned because...

Randi has 4 HOURS of radio time to fill up...might as well talk about someone's looks.

9. Because the fight won't begin for another 5 weeks why start now

[Just Me]

10. Especially when 75% of Americans say they don't trust BushCo?

Why not jump on "Traitorgate" while its sizzling? We can fight both battles, effectively. We don't have to drop either. But, we shouldn't drop "traitorgate" when its reaching from sea to shining sea.
