last year, what did you think the GE match up would be?
I was leaning towards Clinton/Guilini myself. I think a lot of people thought that too.

2. Me, too
The media has all but coronated both of them. But then people voted.

10. Many thought there would be martial law declared and no GE would occur
6 months to go... anything can happen.

The GOP is desperate. The Dems are desperate. Anything can happen.

Stay tuned for Bush's pardon of himself. A first in US presidential history!

12. I honestly though Hillary would slip up.
And I never though Guiliani had a chance. I wasn't sure if anyone could beat her, though I thought Obama had the best chance.

14. I would have guessed Clinton or Edwards vs Romney n/t

Romney was their only sensible candidate -- had they wanted to win.

15. Romney's a Mormon, though and that was always going to hurt him
Edited on Thu May-15-08 01:47 PM by galaxy21
I don't have a problem with it, but I remember reading a lot of people just weren't comfortable voting for a Mormon. Seriously, there were probably people out there wondering how many wives he had. People can be very close minded.

16. I called it for McCain a long time ago
back when everybody thought he was dead in the water. I wasn't sure about the Dem.

17. Clinton/Giuliani was the "given"..and I would have happily supported Clinton
and DID support her until Bill started the racial shit in SC..
I was for her, mostly because I loathed Rudy...but would have gladly supported her..

If She had not gone racial and passive-aggressive-psycho in Feb & March, I could have still supported her IF she had been winning and winning "fairly"..

Once Obama ran the table with 11 in a row, I saw how desperately awful her campaign was, and coupled with the racial shit, I could no longer ever think of voting for her.
