Hello bloggers! Romney may seem fake to some of you but he's got one heck of a background in business and his ideas and passion could be a plus especially with the economy being issue #1 with a lot of voters.
Clinton or Bayh for me, or McCain here in come. We need experience we can believe in.. and Clinton and Bayh have that... and Obama needs it..
What do the candidates have to say about this 80 billion surplus in Iraq?
Oh no.... not Paris.. Actually her comeback was kind of funny... I have to admit.
Anderson please don't you guys ever listen to americans we want Hillary Clinton I along with 18 million who voted for her. We don't know Evan Byah, and Plalenty or who cares biden. We got to know the fighter Hillary and she looks like the only one to put Obama in the office everyday.
I doubt that Paris Hilton will enlighten America on the candidates. A light bulb of information I could do without.
happy wednesday, bloggers
Hey, about the little girl. Has anyone asked about the father of the child. I'm wondering if he or his family might have something to do with all the lies and mess. Observation-inquiry.
So many polls Anderson!! We will never know until the end though...
Romney looks good on paper and has demonstrated that he knows how to play the #2 role–The thing that doesn't make sense to the larger world is that picking Romney truly does mean kissing the Evangelical Vote "Good Bye." If James Dobson says Romney will keep him out of the voting booth many others in that group will be doing the same.
80 billion isn't real money? Is it Monopoly money?
I like Evan, he seems to bring some experience to the table that Obama is 'lacking'.
Since the economy is going to be an important issue in this election, Evan Bayh seems like the logical choice for the Democrats because he understands economic issues; he did a great job with the finances in Indiana when he was governor.
I hope McCain picks Mitt Romney, Lets see a corporate CEO, who has put hundreds and hundreds of Blue Collar workers out of work, is a Mormon, which Evangelicals think is a cult so there goes 20% of the Republican Base, and as far as Economic chops for McCain. Give me a guy to prop up those creds who spent almost $400,000 per delegate in the Republican Primaries and then just walks away from spending $45 million of his own money...great economic policy!!! LOL
That Hilton ad was pretty funny. I gotta give her that much.
Candy-the VP choice is important for Obama because he is short on experience. The VP choice is important for McCaine because of his age.
Hi Anderson & Erica
Looks like a good show tonight.
I dont' think Hillary will be on the ticket. I know Ed Rollins, being a Republican, would love that but it ain't going to happen.
I hope they find Kaylee safe and sound soon. That's so sad..a 3 year old and such a cutie. I can't imagine why anyone would harm such an innocent, defenceless child. Lets all keep her in our prayers.
I have been asking the $$ question for some time; why are we still footing 90% of re-construction costs for THEIR country?
Personally, as an Obama supporter, I hope that McCain picks Romney.
I really feel that Romney will hurt McCain in the long run.
Thats the Bush/McCain war for you..Iraq gets to make BILLIONS while the American people get nothing for reconstruction our own country.
@Larry to blame the Democrats for this war is pure stupity. Blame Bush.
Mike: you are so right. People will be going "only if he picked Hillary" for the rest of time.
You are right Mike, it will be
No Hillary No vote for Obama
Mitt Romney seems so fake
Romney would be a horrible choice for VP; he was unable to win the nomination despite outspending everybody. McCain won't pick him anyway, because he is the presumptive choice.
McCain loves to buck conventional wisdom and surprise the media.
As a Hoosier girl, I'd be happy with a Obama/Bayh combination. I think Bayh would get support from both sides and would help Obama out.
If its obama/biden then who'll do the speechwriting?
If Obama doesn't pick Hillary and loses, it will be second guessed for years.
I think that Evan Byh(sp) would be a good choice as he was in Hillary's corner and might help with her votes. i hope that he is not forced to take Hillary.
Maureen-Romney does look like an actor, you're right.
Romney seems very fake...very superficial.
Hopefully Obama will pick someone who has more experience. It would be tough to find someone with less.
Too bad that John Edwards is no longer looking to VP for Obama, he would be a great VP
The one thing Bayh brings to a ticket, as opposed to Kaine, is experience, something Obama needs more of.
Same could be said on why the republican congress and house blindly gave money to their contratctor buddies and installed no accountability, with billions of dollars never accounted for in Iraq
I don't think John Edwards is interested. He might make a good cabinet member though.
I do prefer a former governor as a vp. Since both candidates are senators.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Obama to pick Biden. I think he'd balance him well.
Mitt Romney looks like an actor though, doesn't he? Only an observation...
So, do you think it will be McCain/Romney? Seems that way, huh?
Hi, I'm sure there must be a reasonable explanation for why the Iraqi gov. hasn't used the revenue money yet....or am I not cynical enough?
It would seem to me that if the US goes to Iraq and blows everything up then perhaps they should pay for the reconstruction efforts.
all very interesting choices for VP
John Edwards would be a great choice for VP. Why wasn't he mentioned as a potential running mate?
So, if the VP is so important, what will their job be after the election and they accomplish their goal of getting their candidate elected?
So why is the Democratically controlled Congress & House continuing to fund Iraqi reconstruction for the past two years?
Hi, everyone. 80 billion? They need to send some of that here.
Evening Anderson and Erica.
I can't believe how much money Iraq has stockpiled from oil! Why is congress still giving them money then?
Cindy...Ga.
Good evening Anderson and everyone.
Hi Anderson & Erica, So glad to be with you tonight. Looks like a good one.
