5. Agree. It's a startlingly weak field. They're all fools.
We're gonna wipe the floor with 'em.

2. Having seen this nightmare, I'd take Hillary over any of these.
I don't trust her very much, but I trust her more than any of these authoritarian numbskulls.

3. You could pool all these nimrods' brains together and they wouldn't
come up to par with Hillary in a drinking match with McCain.

4. Whoever the nominees are,
I'm looking forward to the first post-convention debates. Any Democratic strategist with half a brain will be scouring this debate for talking points when the Republicans are trying to run back to the center.

in the bowels of hell.

7. They're passing the buck and recycling old spin.
And I only soiled my soul by watching 3 minutes at a time. I can't endure more than that.

Scooter Libby's trial was nothing more than a man who had faulty memory. A law was not violated.

Holy cow. Where have these people been hiding? I know, cockroaches don't hang out in the light.

BARF! Green Acres is educational in comparison.

9. Even my republican Dad
Knows they don't have shit. He "likes" the Law and Order guy. Great, another actor.

10. that's a rather low hurdle. I'd prefer a heroic dem candidate, not just one better than a repub
but hey, that' s just me. We've been satisified with mediocrity too long in the political process for my tastes.

11. I'm with you
Yes, the Democratic candidates are better than this nest of clods but, when I look at our candidates, I am not inspired. All I can think is, 6-1/2 years of Bush and this is the best we can come up with?

13. My thoughts exactly
I'm very disappointed in our choices. It seems like with no incumbent and the mess the repugs have made in the last 6 years that we would have someone of the stature of FDR or JFK to choose from. :-(

12. A quote from a Jack Germond book comes to mind
and it was about Mittsy's old man, Governor George Romney of Michigan.

Back in '68, the senior Romney was running for pres and declared that he had been "brainwashed" about the war in Vietnam. After that, some veteran Repig pol was quoted by Germond as saying "Romney running for president is like a duck trying to fuck a football."

Seeing this collection of half-wit asshats, neo-fascists and Jeebus goons calls that observation from the bowels of memory. About all of them.

14. It has always been so. Every one in this 2nd row was/is better than the Rethugs who "won"
