3. "even if she loses", what a joke--she'll be trounced.
New Yorkers aren't going to elect a Bushbot to the Senate. All Senator Clinton has to do is tie Pirro to Bush. Game, set, match.

6. I'd hardly call Pirro a "Bushbot"...
She's been my DA for the past several years, and she's much more of a typical NE Republican -- pro reproductive rights, favorable to corporate interests and constantly trying to be "tough on crime".

All that being said, Hillary has solidified her standing in upstate NY, and Pirro probably won't even beat her there. Especially considering the way that her husband has twice been in major trouble with the law (including one jail term), and she will be much more easily tarred by association than in a countywide race.

13. Every Repug in the Senate is a Bushbot.
Pirro would be no different. Many claim to be moderate on issues, but when the tough votes come in, they are with the Chimperor.

10. Pirro is expendable...

Damn it, what's his name?

14. Rockstar Video Games, she spent federal money
to ban the game from regular stores by forcing it to have a Adult Only rating. Democrats are supposed to be better than this. Don't get me wrong, I'd vote for her over some extreme right nut case but I will never support her in the primaries.

7. she's a politician seizing what she, stupidly, thought would be an issue
of course attacking video games and violent movies did wonders for Gore and Lieberman in 2000 :eyes:

15. I think thats the problem with Democrats
Edited on Mon Aug-08-05 04:43 PM by Pawel K
they are total idiots when it comes to politics; they simply will not learn. Dean, a guy that probably would have beat Bush doesn't know how to control his volume in public, Kerry allowed the right to smear him and left millions in the election fund that should have been spent, now Hillary does this. When will the stupidity stop? I understand election fraud is an issue but if we don't become smarter politicians the extreme right will continue to gain more control over this country and the world will be fucked.
