12/3 The primaries finally get interesting http://csua.org/u/k58 Any predictions on who will take the R nomination? I have no idea, Except that I think Giuliani is done. \_ I think that if Giuliani falls down it will be Romney and he will get even less of the vote than Dukakis did. \_ Heard on the radio this morning that Romney's counting on a win in Iowa or going home. Is Huckabee really the choice candidate? \_ Well, he's a socialist. He belives that compassion means taking *someone else's* money to give to the needy. \_ Romney would win Utah. \_ Pretty much any R would win Utah. \_ Well, I actually meant he would win Utah and no other state. \_ Well, I actually meant he would win Utah and no other state. \_ Why do you think that? \_ I think Huckabee is looking more and more like the best the R's can do this year. It would make for an interesting race, to say the least. \_ Huckabee is the current darling of the religious right who are obsessed with the bogus concept of stacking the supreme court so they can over turn RvW. If they actually knew anything about him (or you either for that matter), it would be obvious that Huckabee offers the worst of both left and right wing while offering none of the positives of either. If the RR stayed home we'd all be better off. Huckabee isn't going anywhere. --conservative \_ Huckabee is an ass and would fall apart once the non faithful took ANY look at him. \_ Huckabee called for a national smoking ban in public places. http://www.breitbart.tv/html/4958.html \_ Did it occur to him that it's unconstitutional for the Fed to legistlate something like that? \_ Why do you think it would be unconstitutional? \_ 10th amendment? \_ The Constitution is just a piece of paper. \_ Hi troll. \_ "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people." Since pharmaceuticals are not mentioned in the constitution, do you really think the Gov. has no right/obligation to regulate them? \_ What do you think that says? \_ On that logic just about any regulatory body is unconstitutional, but guess what, the FCC, the FDA, etc etc, are all pretty well entrenched. \_ I agree, but I'm wondering why the person who thinks it's unconstitutional thinks it's so in the face of the etc etc you mentioned. \_ Hello, you may wish to see Art. 1, Sec. 8 Cl. 18 (the "necessary and proper clause") and McCulloch, 17 US 316 (1819) re the constitutionality of the FCC, FDA, &c. and McCulloch, 17 US 316 (1819). \_ Income tax is unconstitutional, too. |

csua.org/u/k58 -> www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/12/02/AR2007120202194.html?referrer=digg Clinton has hammered Obama recently over his health-care proposal, arguing that he is misleading voters because it omits millions of people and would not lower costs. But Sunday, in a dramatic shift, she made it clear that her goal is to challenge Obama not just on policy but also on one of his strongest selling points: his reputation for honesty.

Links to this article "There's a big difference between our courage and our convictions, what we believe and what we're willing to fight for," Clinton told reporters here. She said voters in Iowa will have a choice "between someone who talks the talk, and somebody who's walked the walk." Asked directly whether she intended to raise questions about Obama's character, she replied: "It's beginning to look a lot like that." The Obama campaign quickly fought back, and the candidate himself called the new effort a sign of desperation. Des Moines Register poll released Sunday finds Clinton three points behind Obama, within the poll's margin of error, among likely Democratic caucusgoers. "I think that folks from some of the other campaigns are reading the polls and starting to get stressed and issuing a whole range of outlandish accusations," Obama said. His advisers -- and some of hers -- believe that if Clinton loses the Iowa caucuses on Jan. Huckabee said on ABC's "This Week," "That's why there's an excitement about my campaign. It's about all those Americans out there who were told what they couldn't do, what they couldn't become." The new Clinton strategy, acknowledged by her senior advisers as an intentional pivot, carries significant risks and could produce a potential backlash if voters perceive her as growing too negative. The Register's poll also found that Clinton was seen by Iowa voters as the most negative of the Democratic contenders. Obama had the support of 28 percent of respondents, up six points from the last Register poll, in early October. |
