charm
People keep saying Clinton isn't warm and charming.
Obama has charm. He attracts the youth and the women.
So did George "W" Bush in 2000.
Where did "charm" get us in 8 years?
We don't need a charming president, we need a competent one.
People look to the past to plan for the future.
No Obama for me please. I want someone who already knows the job and doesn't have to learn it as he goes.

red sky at night
Red sky at morning
sailor take warning.
Red sky at night
a sailor's delight.
So it's going to be a delight the poem says, but I don't think the weather forecasters agree with the literature.
This is WINTER in Florida. February is supposed to be chilly - cold even. Instead we had heavy showers today a few times. How heavy, heavy enough to disrupt the satellite images on my TV.
This is global warming.
This is not good.

Enough already
Mitt Romny dropped out today. John McCain made a speedh about "winning the war". Dick Cheney defends waterboarding and says it's not torture.
So, is the Republican mantra for this election going to be "It's the WAR stupid" to get the people's minds off the lagging economy?
Please, tell us the Republicans aren't going to try to pull this off.
If they do, then I know why they dummy down our education system, to make us more like sheep.
ARGGGGG!!!!!!!!!

Clinton and Clinton
Someone brought up the scenerio what if Hillary Clinton was the presidential nominee and she picked Bill Clinton to run as her Vice President. Is that legal.
I think it is.
The prohibition is that Bill Clinton cannot run for the office of President after two terms. So, he wouldnt' be running for reelcttion,b ut he could in theory become president IF the president died in office. Then Bill would be president, but not ELECTED to the presidency.
I am trying to find out if it's a loophole in the law.
Any suggestions?

Congrats NY Giants
I usually don't "do" football, but I watcht he Super Bowl for the commercials. This year the game was more of a draw.
I was very glad to see the Giants win.
But what upset me was that the commercials that I thought were lame were the ones that were voted most popular by viewers. Popular? Will Farrell looking like a stupid jock? Makes no sense to me.
The ones I liked best barely got an honerable mention.
What's wrong with the majority of Americans? Entertainment doesn't need to be sexy, or vulgar, or rude, or sarcastic.
Or maybe I'm too old to understand todays humor.
