Democrats or Repubicans next year?

[Thierry Martin]

The slightly different styles of the Democrats and Republicans will affect stocks in sectors like healthcare, defense, oil, even tech stocks. Do you feel a Democrat or a Republican will be the next president?

[CommunistJack]

the democrats will win 2008 election

there are 3 ways democrates could lose

1. hillary clintion becomes nominiee, if the polls are right Mcain will be president if hillary is nominated. (in the words of my history teacher "if hillary becomes the nominee i wont vote for her)

2. hilliry/obama (whichever one loses) runs as an indepedent. this is suicide if it ever happans for the democratic party.

3. there is another terrorist attack before november.

I'll take that wager, as i confirm an obvious suspicion. :)FS, I recommend reading "The True Believer" by Eric Hoffer. Hoffer is an longshoreman turned philosopher.
I know you have little respect for Wikipedia. That notwithstanding, I offer the following link as an introduction to Hoffer:

Wikipedia - The True Believer
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_True_Believer)
The most interesting point that Hoffer makes [imo] is that a disillusioned advocate of the left or right is likely to totally switch sides, rather than move toward the center.
I think he has it right there.

It was from that perspective that I postulated that "communistjack" was now a neocon.
Yes, my tongue was indeed in my cheek.
Nevertheless, "It could happen!"

And if I vote for any of them I'm admitting that I have no class, character or conviction. I dislike them all...........

The first "false" report of action against Iran is on the books. Adjust your portfolio accordingly.

[BSGCORP]

Obama, gets so much light, because of him and Hillary going back and forth. Plus i think the majority is so sick of being in Iraq that they don't care if we leave the job half done. they just want our troops home.

In the good ole days, when liberals were actually “liberal,” focused upon individual liberty above all else, and Democrats were actually “democratic” instead of dictatorial elitists focused more on not counting votes than on letting every voice be heard, the words “democratic change” had a very different meaning.


There is nothing democratic about today’s democrats, or their version of democracy.


Instead, the New Democrats and the Democratic Socialists of America are in a fight to the finish for future control of the DNC. Old JFK Democrats are left out in the cold, represented by neither faction, and many of them will be voting for Republican John McCain this fall as a result.

The New Democrats are represented by Hillary Clinton and they portray themselves as the pro-American centrist faction of today’s Democrat Party. To half of Americans, they can only be defined as “centrists” on the basis of their desire for “central socialist power.” But they are a kinder-gentler, more patient version of Democratic Socialism.

The Democratic Socialists of America are represented by Barack Hussein Obama and they are the grassroots “Movement for Democratic Change,” the new buzz word title used to disguise the modern international march towards “socialism” via democratic processes, which is currently waging political warfare against societies from America to South Africa and Europe. These folks have a take-no-prisoners approach to advancing the socialist agenda.

Left out of the equation entirely, are old Jefferson/JFK Democrats, Old Democrats, who still believe in American sovereignty and security as JFK did, who still believe in individual liberty instead of ultimate central power in Washington DC, as Thomas Jefferson did, who still believe in real individual equal opportunity as Martin Luther King did, not the new racism present in the constant grab for free stuff that the MLK movement has since been perverted into, find themselves politically homeless today.

I can tell how good Obama might be as a president but he will be definitely better than McCain, but that are just my 2 cents.

Thats the 100% pure conjecture I expect from an Obama supporter.

not based in any criteria at all.

Hi Kathleen.

Hi freakscene.

I had a typo, i meant that "I can't tell....". It is just the way that I trust him way more than I do McCain and it is not very hard to be a better president than the last one.

I spotted the typo, and intepreted your post correctly.

I stand by my statement.

Obama is one of the biggest frauds to run for president since..................Al Gore. (being a bigger fraud than Gore is quite an accomplishment in of itself)

You "trust" him, because you have become victim of his slick marketing and public relations campaign. Don't feel badly. You've been targeted by professionals who are spending hundreds of millions of dollars to make you feel that way, very much like the tobacco industry targeting young woman to make smoking appealing (even though everyone knows otherwise).

Before you vote; Think. Educate yourself on just how dangerously liberal Obama's policies are. And finally ask yourself if you want to participate in moving this country another step towards socialism.

An Obama presidency with a democrat controlled congress, should equal removing the stars from the flag and replacing them with a hammer and sicke. :)

And as for your last statement, read up on how the people of Truman's era considered him to be the "worse president ever" during the end of his term. He even had poll numbers worse than Bush. Yet today he is regarded as one of the better presidents of modern times.

(for the record I am not a Bush fan and I am not voting for either of the 2 idiots running with a D or R by their name)

Welcome to the board.
