July 6, 200421 yr I like John Edwards. If the ticket were reversed, I would vote for him. How screwy is that? And, Cheney - Edwards debates ought to be interesting!
July 6, 200421 yr should have picked hillary..it was a gaurenteed winning ticket...now if bush can get cheney to step down gracefully and put colin powell on the ticket..its a slam dunk for the GOP..
July 6, 200421 yr should have picked hillary..it was a gaurenteed winning ticket...now if bush can get cheney to step down gracefully and put colin powell on the ticket..its a slam dunk for the GOP.. Neva, NEVA, happen.
July 6, 200421 yr Now that Edwards is running with him, can't he just see the future and see if they win? If not, Kerry could save $$$.
July 6, 200421 yr By the way, doesn't this remind you of Dan Quayle in '88 as a pick? A Jr. Senator, who has little experience? But I bet your bottom dollar that Edwards won't get crucified like Quayle did...
July 6, 200421 yr should have picked hillary..it was a gaurenteed winning ticket...now if bush can get cheney to step down gracefully and put colin powell on the ticket..its a slam dunk for the GOP.. I disagree! Colin Powell is an asshole! Bush would be better off without him!

July 6, 200421 yr Author You spell potatoe, I spell potato... I spell tomato, you spell tomatoe... Lets call the whole thing off.
July 6, 200421 yr Huntington. I was there for when they showed up, GWHB and Quayle, in front of the courthouse because my dad worked at the building across the street at the time. What a circus. The media tore him a new one that day... That was really my first experience in remembering the bias of the media. I would have been 15. It all came together that day... Here was a guy with humble background just getting his ass kicked over, even at 15, what I thought was stupidity. But, I guess I could have looked at it differently... but that wouldn't be any fun, would it?
July 6, 200421 yr Quayle was (is) a dumbass, but, he was 100% right about the need for Tort Reform. Way too many frivilous lawsuits in this country.
July 6, 200421 yr Author Where in IN was Quayle from? You live in Ft Wayne and you haven't been down to the Dan Quayle Muesuem in lovely Huntington IN? For shame
July 6, 200421 yr You live in Ft Wayne and you haven't been down to the Dan Quayle Muesuem in lovely Huntington IN? For shame Am I missing out, or am I missing out? Do we get a complimentary bag of Seyfert's potatoe chips for visiting?
July 6, 200421 yr You couldn't hold Dan Quayle's jock on a bad day, to quote, "dumbass". The man is VERY intelligent, but he was not a good speech person - hence where everyone smacks him down. He had a ton of good ideas, and was one of the best intended folks I can remember in Washington, before all the crap with the media caught up to him. Tort reform Family issues, which Clinton championed, were largely brought to the forefront by Quayle. He was a "true" conservative, not what we have in the White House today, that's for darn sure. I could go on, but I better get something accomplished since I have piddled half the day away...
July 6, 200421 yr I really dont mind Edwards that much. If the ticket was reversed i really dont know who i would vote for

July 6, 200421 yr I didn't, you just did. Each stands alone, in this case. Why does "liberalism" have to equate intelligence?
July 6, 200421 yr Author I didn't, you just did. Each stands alone, in this case. Why does "liberalism" have to equate intelligence? I would have to say narrowmindedness would be much more anti-intelligent than either side of US politics...
