1. This is why I prefer one candidate over the other....
...I want a brawler, someone who doesn't go soft, a palooka, one who can take it on the chin I tellya. Someone with brass balls who ain't afraid to swing them.

I want someone who'll mooda the bums, just mooda them.

2. That's pretty much my feelings too. Hillary pulled a Rocky Balboa tonight
or a Sam Houston to be more precise. She had the wisdom to chose to do battle on a field that favored her. In political terms, this was the equivalent of the battle of San Jacinto. Glorious. Absolutely glorious.

Who, you know, I would definitely want on my side in a fight, since he has no problem with biting people's ears off, though I wouldn't want him to be president.

4. Lyndon Johnson
If it was one thing Johnson was good at, it was knock-down, drag-out fights.

6. Barack Obama
If I wanted to elect Karl Rove I'd have voted for him.

9. so, are you clintons supporters now going to validate and strengthin your position
on dirty politics. is this what this is. so you can feel more comfortable in your role playing the rove game that we all detested. is this what the clintons supporters are becoming. cause after years on this board and supporting democrats because of what bushco and rw christians did to dems/liberals.... if this becomes the new face, i am outta here. i wont vote for it. i wont give this to my kids.

11. One of the things that I admire about Hillary
is that she will fight to the death for what she believes. She has withstood ordeals that would have devastated most of us and, not only did she survive, but she thrived.

If the question is: Who do you believe will fight for you without ever giving up?

The unequivocal answer is Hillary!!!

:thumbsup:
