Mary Carey in da hizzy!
Actually, Paul, I've followed some of what she's had to say in the past year or so, and she seems to be all over the place politically. Her behavior in interviews seems more erratic than ever, and I'm concerned that she will just end up embarrassing herself.
On the other hand, she could run as a third-party VP candidate under Joe "Sominex" Lieberman, but that would probably just give Old Joe a coronary.

I hear ya Boodi. Just for the heck of it I really did look into some of her issues. Like you said, depending on the time frame her responses were all over the map.
I don't believe she could be any more embarrasing than the village idiot we now have in the White House. Among the many of his frequent fuck-ups is his recent groping of chancellor Merkel. If nothing else, even the gay men here would agree Mary is far more pleasing to the eye :-D
As for that scum Lieberman, Mary would do us all a favor if she did give holy Joe a coronary. I can't believe loserman. The good people of my former home state told him to get lost and he still can't take no for an answer.

Paul, Paul, Paul, you're just fantasizing about a (vice)president who'll show da nipples during the State Of The Union :roll:

So Paul, please give us your REAL opinions on Lieberschmoe!
I think Joe Fossil will find his goose well-cooked in November, and part of the reason is being ignored by the media: The electronic gaming industry.
They've been after Ach Du Lieberman for at least 10 years because of his attacks on gaming. They are an ignored (yet very wealthy) lobby, not that his opponent needed the money. They wil certainly be waiting to put the final nail in his coffin.
In other news, I'd like to ask the Left Coasters what they predict for Ah-nuld. I know that when we had some Cali regional sports programming available during pay-sports previews on our cable system, the teacher's union anti-Ahnuld ads were running like station IDs! Has that sentiment died down?

[paul]

Hey Boodi...yes Lieberman symbolized the enablers of in the party of the Bush Crime Family. He also symbolized the Dems ineptitude in being the so-called "opposition party." Bedides, I hated him when he went after Dean a few years ago.
Alright, so what's my sense on Conan getting re-elected. IMHO if the election were today he would win by a small margin. Angelides, his Dem opponent has not done anything yet. Perhaps it's too early. Add to that from what I've seen, Angelides doesn't exactly have that fiery personality that would light up the liberal/progressive/ Dem base. Conan in turn has tossed some bones to liberals. He is distancing himself from Bush. He has signed an agreement with England about global warming. He has also funded (though not by a whole lot) state research in stem cells.
The teacher and nursing issues seem like ancient history given that most Americans have a short memory.
If I were Angelides' campaign man I would have him avoid immigration like the plague. Instead, I would have him hammer away at Conan's ties with the energy companies, Cheney, and the sky high electricity prices we have here. I would also slowly build this attack beginning now!

[paul]

Well, funny I'm reading about this in the liberal blogs today after a lot of silence. The power of "The Goddess." :D
So what I'm reading is that Diane Feinstein's co-chair for her re-election is supporting Conan. Yes, you read right. In a way I shouldn't be surprised. Diane and Lieberman are similar and suck up to power regardless of affiliation. This co-chair said she was afraid Angelides will raise taxes.
This is quite fucked up for several reasons. First, being in her position she shoulda kept her fucking mouth shut about her vote. Nice of her to cut the legs off a fellow Dem. Second, (and I voted for Westly, Angelides' Dem rival in the primary) the establishment state dems were shoving Angelides down our throats during the primaries. Now it seems this co-chair and a few others are stepping away from Angelides. Third, we represent a fucked in the head generation of people who wont pay our way. While a legitimate argument can be made that Dems tax and spend. At least we feel the immediate impact of unchecked spending and that will mitigate any future spending. Repubs borrow and spend. That's what the Bush crime family is doing and that's what Conan is doing now. To pass this on to future generations in irresponsible. What is truly sad about all this is it is the poor who will ultimately take it up the shorts when the bill comes. Some of these are Walmart republicans who will vote for Conan.

[Boodikka]

Feinstein? Feh! Five minutes after Moscone and Milk had gone cold, she started dancing to her right.
Walmart Republicans? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: . Paul, ya got me with that one! I think I've heard them called "Double-Wide" Republicans as well.

[paul]

I never heard the Double-Wide Republicans. Certainly paints the proper image in my mind :D

[dfc99bb]

I think Lieberman will win in November. Remember that the primary voters who gave him the boot are only a small percentage of democratic voters, and an even smaller percentage of all Connecticut voters. Primaries by their nature bring out the party die-hards.

In November Lieberman will get the votes of non-leftist democrats and republicans (45% of CT voters) who respect him. I think he will win and get 53% to 55% of the vote. How is Lamont going to campaign in blue-collar towns like Derby and in more conservative eastern Connecticut? They are a lot of conservative democrats in that part of the state.

About that agreement. How can a governor sign an agreement with any foreign country? Isn't that right reseved for the Federal Government only through the US Senate's treaty ratification process?

Interesting take, dfc.
If Old Schmoe is going to try and take the center (and that's his best bet), he better ingesting some sort of political Viagra. The early polls aren't promising, but if he runs a positive campaign, I could see him making it close.
If he tries to back off from his Bushwhacker label, and make distance there, then he could attack Lamont's inexperience. It will be interesting ( I have relatives who would be considered moderate Dems living in both casino areas: well-off Catholics who are moderates on abortion, but anti-war, etc.).

How about taking BJs in the oval office while Osama was planning 9/11, does that one count???

Listen to this new breed of leftist "haters" that have high jacked a once robust Democratic Party and have turn it into a snake pit of cut throats and cut and run enemies' sympathizers weaklings, FDR must be turning in his grave.

they insult and wish death upon a seasoned US senator that has served his State and the country since the 60's and that just a few years ago was offered to America as the Vice President candidate !!!! :evil: Take about cut throats scum:evil:

America do you really want to vote for anyone in this Party????? I certainly hope not!!!!!

[paul]

Ahhh...how nice to feel that love back on da boards again.
Quickly, Mix, I didn't think you had any time to post. I saw a bunch Castro haters partying and figured you'd still be in that crowd By the way, I didn't get that. So if Fidel dies and his bro takes over, what difference would it make? If anything I heard Raul is even more hardcore!
dfc99bb, I disagree entirely with your take. I saw a demographic breakdown county by county and Lamont carried virtually all of them. This included "blue collar" areas Hartford and New Haven. Also, based on exit polling data that I've seen as well as a gut reaction, I believe Loserman will lose even more support from the Dems who voted for him due to his selfish pathetic stunt!
As for Lamont trying to appeal to conservative, rethug or dem, to that I say to hell with 'em. Lamont stuck to Lieberman's support for Bush and the Iraq War. That's the winning approach. Anyone still supporting Bush and his policies are kool-aid drinkers and aren't worth the effort.
As for the global warming agreement, dfc99bb you make an excellent point. I'd have to research this but a way I can see around this is if both California and England agree to meet certain goals. States can set there own goals here without federal intervention.
Honestly Boodi, Loserman can't win. At most he could put a rethug in office. Most likely though Lamont will win. First, the repug running now has been busted using a pseudonym to cover is gambling problems. I think his poll numbers are in the gutter. Add to that I heard today the local repug big wigs in CT are considering running a different repug.
Mix, are you guys still blaming Clinton for 9/11 or are ya just bitter that girls willingly gave the "Big Dog" a hummer. Us lefties don't have to grope women to fell love. Did you see the look of disgust on Merkel's face when the dimestore cowboy tried to cop a feel 8)
Oh, and by the way, the Bush Crime Family allowed the events of 9/11 to occur.
One more thing, you should research more about FDR. Trust me, with your politics you would hate him cause he stood for everything you're oppose to though ironically benefit from 8-)
