That's...

He can relate to those currently serving and are in the line of fire..
...a good thing? Have you read much about or much familiar with McCain? His 'relating' to people in uniform is likely to keep them very busy.

Read some comments he's made about Kosovo. About Lebanon. About war in general.

I think it's great that he served and can 'relate' to everyone who is serving. That doesn't equal good leadership in my view.

Vrail will kick your azz

Board Mommy...of the World!

Is Larry the only one who thinks it's "VraiL blonde" and not "Vraiblonde"?

As in, "Vrai" (true) versus "Faux" (false)?

Larry, I forget - do you wear glasses? Can you see an extra L in there?

Nothing to see here
I been looking at the candidates and where they stand on Traditional marriage, human life amendment, moral education, gun rights. McCain is against traditional marriage and Human life Amendment but he would be second choice.

Guess not. Hell, I usually call her Deej, even when she uses Vrai.

And I also pretty much stick with Politics, News, Life in... and that's about it. I'm just not too interested in basic chat stuff and I don't really know hardly anyone off the board in real life.

If someone is going to be in a position to put people in harms way, it's nice to know that person has an insight into what that REALLY means. Someone who has personal knowledge of being in harms way..
Hillary and Obama don't have a clue, it would be more like playing a video game to them..

If you vote for the person you KNOW isn't going to win, and you KNOW is only taking votes away from another candidate, than what's the point?

Your guy gets 9% of the vote, McCain or Romney gets 42% of the vote, and Hillary gets 49%.. You put Hillary in the White House just as much as the person who voted for Hillary.

It's not Rocket Science, it really isn't.
How do you KNOW? Polls? The polls said McCain didn't have a chance not too long ago...

...know, I can come up with as many good cic's who didn't serve as did, but I do tend to agree with you except this is McMaverick we're talking about and I just have reservations about the guy.

Pretend someone put a gun to your head and said "choose or die". Just pick whoever comes closest.
After listening to the speeches following Super Tuesday I actually (I can't believe I am writing this) started thinking about maybe throwing my vote to Obama. I liked what he said and I felt he was the most sincere. After that I would choose John McCain. I am an independent but with mainly conservative views.

If Obama was just slightly less Liberal I might actually vote for him.

Is Human Life Amendment another way of saying "Pro-Life"... Never heard this saying before.

I'm not talking primaries, I'm talking the actual election.

IF Paul runs as an idependent (I don't think he will) he could serve the purpose as the spoiler for the Republicans.. It's POSSIBLE that he could take away enough votes from the Republican candidate to ensure a Dem in the White House.

Whoever wins the DEM nomination would be wise to try to convince someone like Paul to do it.. maybe even finance it if they could find a backdoor method of doing it. I'm sure the Dem's are already thinking of a way to do it.

I don't know about throwing my vote his way but he can give a speech.
Standing by for Larry to pounce.:lmao:
