|
Without three "Uh's" between every word.

7. I attend Toastmasters meetings and sometimes get assigned |
|
as the person who has to count the ah's people make during speeches. I would hate to have to do that for a Bush speech. I would need a freaking calculator.

|
of making threats if you don't do things my way.

12. That and he is not pandering to the group either |
|
Laying out the case for bringing peace to the ME--and it doesn't involve bombs and hatred.

6. and it comes naturally to him because he has done his homework |
|
he read, he studied, he done all the things to prepare himself for today in his life, unlike the boy king I could love him more only if he were one of my immediate family members

10. I know! The facts, the details ... he just KNOWS them ... |
|
... and speaks so effortlessly ... not preachy, not as a bully, not in an "I know it and you don't" manner ...
Jeeeeeez, I really wish there was another Big Dog waiting in the wings (Feingold? :shrug: ) ...

14. and I would like to ask you to give this some thought, say the Big Dog |
|
And yes Russ Feingold is and will ascend to the Whitehouse, first as a VP then as the President. IMO

15. I think that Feingold is as close as it comes |
|
I haven't seen Feingold as warm and personal as BC comes across, but I think he could come pretty close. Gore is also becoming much more warm now that he's out of political office...maybe could retain that if he ran in '08.

18. I just can't get it out of my head that '08 will be Gore/Feingold |
|
and through life it has been proven to be true to me more often than not when I have these feelings

20. That's been my thought too ... |
|
It's a natural ticket - they compliment each other in alot of ways.
I would work my ARSE off for that ticket, BTW. :applause:
I'm a native Wisconsinite so had the pleasure of meeting a young-ish Senator Feingold when I was in college in '96 ... I was busy campaigning for the Dem State Senate Candidate (who's now WI Lt. Gov :) ) & didn't have the time work work on Russ' campaign too, but was lucky enough to cross paths with him via some of my classmates who were volunteers/at Dem campaign events locally.

23. We certainly need them |
|
There's gonna be a hell of a mess to clean up once the bush* regime is out. There are no two Dems nationally known that I would trust more to do the job--okay, that's not entirely true. I believe that their are a few people in the CBC who I trust to clean up the mess, but I don't see any of them being elected as POTUS.
Here's a toast to your instinctual feeling, I hope it is on target! :toast:

9. Talking about how Bush is protecting some drug lords in |
|
Afganistan. That should go over big but it's the truth.

11. Boy, The "Kid" could never explain the problems like BC. |
|
What a mind and grasp of the problems of the world. I truly believe he is about the only person who could step into the job after GWB leaves and straighten our country out....shoot, straighten the world out.

16. Criticising our response to Katrina and indirectly. This is |
|
and indictment of the Bush administration. I wish he would just out and out name Bush as responsible for the lack of response and subsequent deaths for his lack of concern and incompetence.
