Hillary’s Oriental Mysteries

The Democrats' soft Hsu routine. Also: Fred T: Where's the excitement? Warnings about VHA. Evolution and a lecture from 1981. Plus more.

(Page 3 of 13)

p>In this age of focus group and polling driven governance, I’m inclined to back the guy who’s the most bedrock in his views, and that guy is Ron Paul, longer and louder than any of the others. He may not have the TV presence to trade quips with Jay Leno, but I think he’s the least likely to go “New World Order” on us after being elected, like another President I could name. Thompson, in my opinion, has been too clever for his own good, and revealed himself to be a mere politician rather than a man of principle. br> — Mark Fallert br> Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania /p> p> Fred Thompson is being criticized for skipping the “presidential” debate. Didn’t he declare his candidacy after the debate? If that is true, then he should not have been included in that debate. Unless they are saying he should have announced sooner just so he could be in that particular debate? Also, it is interesting that he got more coverage than all of the other contenders combined who were on the same platform. That sounds like a smart move, and one that may be hard to repeat. br> — Jack A. Summers br> Detroit, Michigan /p> p> Because Fred Thompson has some catching up to do and might be less enthusiastic about campaigning than some, he should consider hiring look-alike Joe Don Baker to serve as his surrogate to appear at some rallies. The star of the Standing Tall movies could stand in and stand tall for Fred. Extra advantages are: he is slightly better-looking, he has much more hair, he looks slightly younger though he’s older, he, too, has played law-and-order type roles quite effectively and reinforces the Southern angle because of the roles he played. Some theme could be developed in connection with an ax (budget-cutting?), not to mention Fred’s old plaid shirt and pick-up.

Democrats had put up attractive candidates (perhaps even just non-geeky ones) in 2000 and 2004 canada gooseAfter the immigration bill failed in the U.S. Senate, the postmortems deplored the new power of bloggers and the Internet.
