18. how long will you want to stay down here?
if you want to travel around the country i can help you find cheap lodging. food is cheap here. the main cost will probably be your airfare.

5. Yeah. We'd be pretty fucked.
And NO one would bother to dredge up the way mccain jilted his first wife. Guaranteed. It'd be Bill Clinton 2.0 - around the clock. Olympics or no. Hell, it might even bigfoot some Olympics coverage. America does love its sex scandals. So does its media.

10. He didn't win the nomination. This is GDP. Can we talk about Obama and McCain?
We just got over the Clinton smears.

11. We'd lose in an landslide. Period.
It is sad that there is now news that Elizabeth Edwards also conspired to keep this a secret. What were they possibly thinking!!
