The OFFICIAL United States Presidential Election Thread! IV

[Ned]

Mr. Fun and Theban, I am sure you have heard of Dick Cheney, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Rudy Giuliani. These men are Republican leaders who clearly are not anti-gay. I am not either if you have followed my posts over time.

About meeting Democrat gays half way so we can work together, I for one would like to hear your ideas on what we Republicans can do.

[Dis]

you actually admit to being a republican?

Well, he has to blend in with the rest of the inhabitants of this universe somehow.

[Dis]

we have a president who says "want some wood?"

Schwarzenegger and Giuliani have no chance for further political advancement however. Hell, neither does Cheney. The party would never accept candidates who are pro-choice (like Schwarzenegger and Giuiliani), so I'd hesitate to call them Republican leaders. The actual leaders, like Raciccot and Balbour and Hastert aren't similar in temperment.

Swarchenegger will be president someday. Mark my words. And I'll vote for him.

Arnold

yes I know the obsticle he has to overcome.

[Imran Siddiqui]

The Republicans will never nominate him, even if they could. His primary opponent will point out that he's pro-choice and pro-stem cell research and it'd be all over.

Probably completely unrelated to anything, but it just struck me. I find myself feeling more sympathetic to John Kerry the person now that I know he's lost. My view on his political agenda hasn't changed (of course), but I actually feel a little sorry for him as a person now that it's all over, after digesting all the news and watching some additional footage.

A bit strange, does anyone feel the same way?

Not really, no.

About the only thing I feel sorry for him is his choice in spouse. But thats the price of being a gigolo.

I don't know about that. Being Arnold ****ing Schwarzenegger gives you a pretty big leg up on your opponents.

[Dis]

his main disadvantage is that sexual harrassment/assault thing will rear its ugly head up again. He'll even face tough competition for re-election of governor.

Wow -- you're smart!


Who else could I have been referring to, Ned?

I know Arnold is more famous, but tell that to John McCain about a name being a leg up on the opponent.

From what I've heard, the youth vote is the same as it was in 2000.

They always try to "get out the vote". But that seems to be a bunch of bull****.

The kids just don't care. If they did, perhaps Kerry could have won Ohio.

[Ted Striker]

Never say never about Arnold

Nobody would have guessed that he would become Governor either

[Imran Siddiqui]

Well there is that whole Constitutional Amendment thing needed .
