Re: Karen Goes to Iowa...
Bet she had a rough ride today. We got about 6in of snow today. Cedar Rapids had more.
Without being political, more of an observation, I think it's to close to call on the Democrat side. I think any of the top three could win. Hillary is really pulling out all the stops, which may be why Karen is coming in to help. The situation in Pakistan may give her a helpful bump, but Edwards has a great deal of organized labor backing, and Obama has the youth , and change vote. It is quite interesting. I believe Huckabee has a lock on the GOP side. Western Ia. is pretty conservative, and the evangelicals pack the caucuses. It will be interesting to see if Mcain has any resurgence in Ia. I think he will in NH. Again, all observation. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif If she gets in the Davenport area, have her give me a shout. I haven't comitted yet, so for a nice dinner out, I could be persuaded. Ain't politics wonderful. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif |

Tom, your pm box is full.
There is a very good editorial in todays Quad city times by former Republican congressman Jim Leach of Ia. If you are a GOP leaning person, I would recommend it. |

When corporations consolidate nationally, and globally as they have been, they tend to become THE primary influence in how government policy is structured. Therefore giving corporations(think big oil)more influence over events, than governments can control. Leaving you as a citizen basiclly powerless to do anything. When ever the populace feels powerless to effect change,it becomes angry. (Think Bolshevic revolution.)The average wage earner who has seen his income drop, and inflation rise appx 4% this year is getting angry. That's what Edwards is addressing. Free market capitalism is a wonderful thing, but even Teddy Rooseveldt knew that without addressing the social consequenses of unbridled robber barons eventually grievences real, or percieved would have violent consequences. This is an impartial statement. If I have crossed the moderators line, I apologize, and feel free to delete it. Tom, I'll pm my nbrs. Hillary was next door in Eldridge this morning. Weather is much better today. I had to juggle my priorities, and hanging a qtr on bbbenny's car won out. Sorry Hil. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif |

Re: Karen Goes to Iowa...
Nope..........Not mine......One of the Criteria I have in Voting is that the Candidate at least be aware enough of their surroundings to find some "Old" Law firm records that were missing for Years sitting on a Table in their Hallway......I don't think that would be Too much to ask of someone who wants to deal in the Complexity of the World Today...........Or was this part of the "Vast" Right Wing Conspiracy............Laugh...Laugh....(As only Hillary can do)

Re: Karen Goes to Iowa...
Tom, Hook up with Bill Clinton. He always has some chicks around https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/laugh.gif since your free for a few days

Re: Karen Goes to Iowa...
It's gonna be all about who's the second choice in Iowa.
That's the tell of the tape. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif |
Re: Karen Goes to Iowa...
Commentary: I'm not sure the polls are all thar accurate. Still a lot of undecideds as hard as that is to believe. There are those who believe that Hillary, and Obama would be hindered by they're gender, or race. And that Edwards is the best candidate to win in the national election. I believe that may be the driving issue on caucus night.
I think on the Republican side that if more took the time to attend, the outcome would change a great deal. Although many of you think this is all bs, remember, this is the way the process works in a free democracy. It is America at it's best. We are the ones who let the process down by not taking the time to attend. Democracy is only as good as we make it. By not being part of the process you are GIVING that right to someone else you may not agree with. I urge you, be part of the process. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif |

Re: Karen Goes to Iowa...
Obama can't f it up any worse than the current occupant has! Uh-oh, I think I just made a political post and I'm not supposed to do that! Better go out to the garage and play with the '55...

Re: Karen Goes to Iowa...
Bill,
Thirty lashes with the wet noodle for you! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif |
Re: Karen Goes to Iowa...
The turn out was simply amazing. I've been going since the early 70s when 12 people was a good turn out. We had 69 turn out tonight.We split 4 delegates between Edwards, and Clinton although Obama was viable through the first round, and only missed by a couple of votes.
Obama truly had a very good ground organization, and someone asked if the young people would show up. In Ia. they did. Huckabee was no surprise on the GOP side. He's a pretty easy to like guy even for us Democrats. He actually may be a real compassionate conservative. Maybe even to compassionate for main stream GOPers as his poverty, and help for the working class isn't that far from Hillary's All in all, very interesting. And a opportunity to make a small difference. |
