Because of my unique employment status, I have had the opportunity to work around some of the most affluent investment brokers, high level ceos, and the like. You know, Bilderberger types. So far, every single one of them in their meetings has all but decided that Hillary is the next president and the Democrats gain seats in the Congress. These are people that have amassed great wealth betting on the system since the Federal government stopped worrying at Appomattox. I personally doubt they would risk all their ones and zeros on betting on policies that have yet to be implemented if they were not privy to certain information. From what I have seen, they have very little fervent attitude towards politics if it does not involve net loss and net gain. Hopefully they all have underestimated the dark horse of Ron Paul. He's a bit of a loose cannon, but a little bloodshed and revolution for the sake of democracy (i.e. the Republic) is good.

I do concur that what this country needs is a viable third option. The extreme left has co-opted the Democratic party to an extent that they are taking their marching orders from borderline communists. The Republicans have been overrun by robber barons that are the modern equivalent of the social "elite" that have little in common with a middle class conservative. For example, what does an old school, blue dog, Roosevelt Democrat from the mid west have in common with a West coast, homosexual, environmentalist? Probably less than zero. By the same token, what does a rural,conservative, blue collar, gun owner have in common with a wall street mogul that has a yacht named after his wife? Again probably less than zero, but all still vote along party lines for lack of a better choice. The problem is finding the big (and old) money to back a third option. In these times that would be a serious long shot.

Let us hope that sanity may see us through to a viable leader, but history usually proves otherwise.

They got the media, they got the election machines, I would have to say they probably got the polls to. I do not think she is as far ahead as the news makes it out to be.

If an Edwards Obama ticket started up after Iowa, things might get interesting fast.

It is not possible for Michigan to hold the first primary, two states have in their constitution that they must be 8 days before all other primaries, and the other 8 days before that (Iowa being the first) .. cant remember the second. If Michigan causes the two states to default, the election committee will strike all candidates delegations off the record from Michigan, and the state will become void.

Hilary may think she won something, but she didnt.

I thought this was humorus.



Although we all know she is just a Republican and is not part of the Donkey(Democrat) party, so it might not be accurate, dependant on interpretation.

My data shows Hillary least electable, and I don't hate her, I think she has an agenda that does not support the American people. I did think the donkey duality of the joke to be funny.
