Link failure.
Damn, those psychiatrists have huge packages.
In this case, I disagree. Under a third party, sure, he’d have next to no chance of winning a high position - but he’s running as a Republican. Additionally, Paul beat the incumbent for the primaries in the 96’ House election, with the major Texas Republican figures backing Laughlin, and went on to win the election.
If there’s a possibility for a libertarian to be President any time in the near future, it’s with Ron Paul, who definitely has a chance.
You guys know what libertarian issues poll at right?
Yes, thus refer back to my earlier comment.
GATTA HAVE FAITH!
If Instant Runoff Voting were in place, people would vote more on their ideals and less on their “lesser of evils” instincts, giving the libertarians and socialists alike an equal shot. Just sayin’.
Also:
Asked about his favorite book, Mr. Romney cited the Bible.
I can’t believe there is anyone dumb enough to fall for this.
So after a long day of pandering, Mitt just likes to crash on his couch, strip down to his secret Mormon longjohns, crack open a caffeine-free Diet Coke and start reading Numbers or Deuteronomy or some shit? What’s his favorite song, Kumbaya?
The Bible is homework. I’m a biochemist, I don’t go around broadcasting it by telling people my favorite book is Molecular Biology of the Cell.
Its not?
Tom Tancredo finally wins something:
The AP asked the presidential candidates what item each would “most like to have if he were stranded on a desert island.”
Democrats:
Sen. Joe Biden: “Jill, my wife.”
Sen. Hillary Clinton: “A good book.”
Sen. Chris Dodd: “Coffee with cream and sugar.”
John Edwards: “A book.”
Rep. Dennis Kucinich: His wife, Elizabeth.
Sen. Barack Obama: “Other than my wife and my kids, an inanimate object I would have to have would probably be a good book.”
Gov. Bill Richardson: “Blackberry and a Davidoff cigar.”Republicans:
Sen. Sam Brownback: “Tarp.”
Rudy Giuliani: “Books and music.”
Mike Huckabee: “Laptop with satellite reception.”
Rep. Duncan Hunter: “Mrs. Hunter.”
Sen. John McCain: “Books.”
Mitt Romney: “My wife, Ann.”
Rep. Tom Tancredo: “Boat.”
They totally butchered the movie version.
I am totally offended by how all these males objectify their wives by calling them “items” to be had on a desert island.
OK, not really.
I still can’t believe that Romney said Battlefield Earth. I mean, the old school religious right were already not liking him cause he was a Mormon, but then he has to cite the novel written by the guy who founded Scientology, the wacko cult religion of Tom Cruise! Is he actively trying to get the religious right to not vote for him?
Hay that’s my line~
I do like Tancredo’s answer though, it wins. :P
I was a little offended that they’d condemn their families to a deserted island, just to keep themselves entertained.
I lean way to the free-market side of the economic spectrum but none of these chowderheads excite me. I’m almost certain to vote for the free-tradingest Democrat in the primaries. Of the guys listed here, I voted for Tommy T. because at least he did some interesting experimenting while governor of Wisconsin. (A year ago my choice would have definitely been McCain, who, while he definitely manufactured and polished his “maverick” image, still got me excited back in 2000. Now, he’s more of a goose than a maverick.)
