But I think it says something even worse about our culture that we are starting to pick our leaders this way. We face serious problems and a growing list of serious threats. We need leaders who are serious people. Not leaders who are famous for being famous." Now Bush, Obama and Palin. Now tell me that office isn't degraded. |

http://www.miamiherald.com/opinion/c...y/1478213.html My guess is he doesn't want to be stained by fallout from the increasingly clear failure of the Obama Presedency and Democratic Senatorial inaction...and put his war-chest and popularity working towards a 2012 run for the Oval office. Too bad he dropped out in 2008- I thought his centrist stance on most issues was a nice choice against Obama and Hillary. And for the Right side of the aisle all we can find is f**king Sarah Palin and or a re-re-recycled Newt Gingrich ? Jesus F***ing Christ.:unsure: |

We shouldn't have to pay property taxes, apparently. I didn't know roads n' stuff are free. |

So far, I quite like her and think she's the best of the bunch, in a "The good bits of Ron Paul if not a Barry Goldwater" stylee. |

That seems fair. I'm sure the lower income people won't mind. Got to be careful what you wish for, c. |
