expatinscotland · 20/01/2007 20:21

wurlywurly · 20/01/2007 20:21

WelshBoris · 20/01/2007 20:21

Omaba is going to win

SherlockLGJ · 20/01/2007 20:22

Good luck to her.

But bring back Bill................spent my honeymoon on the beach with my DH and my early evenings with a G&T in the suite with Bill.

Well DH was there actually, but he found the CNN hustings boring, so read a book.

I used to have a brain pre DS.

Tiredemma .. I sometimes go to Battersea Dog's Home to see if I can make the leap from wanting a dog to getting a dog

Obama's a pretty strong candidate.

Piffle · 20/01/2007 20:35

I predicted this years ago
I mentioned it to some Americans when in the US last April, they thought I was loopy.

I think Hillary has an excellent chance. Although remain a little sceptical that she is the answer.

Obama is a strong candidate but when you analyse the voting public and how the votes are counted, think that will count against him tbh
interesting conundrum to imagine which would shake up the US more, a black president or a woman...

suedonim · 20/01/2007 20:57

It's been obvious for years that HC was going to run one day. But I've been taken aback at how disliked she is, esp amongst Democrats. Not that I've actually polled all the Democrats in the US, just the ones I know!

expatinscotland · 20/01/2007 20:58

Believe me, as an American, Hilary has NILL chance.

Obama is very popular across the board.

expatinscotland · 20/01/2007 20:59

Just as Colin Powell was, although he declined to run.

He was incredibly popular.

WelshBoris · 20/01/2007 20:59

If she does win, and is too busy to talk to her husband I'll keep him occupied

yum yum

ZZMum · 20/01/2007 21:04

after me, WB --- wow bill is SO fit!!

expatinscotland · 20/01/2007 21:06

He's gross.

Trailer trash taste in women, too.

WelshBoris · 20/01/2007 21:07

I'll be OK then

expatinscotland · 20/01/2007 21:07

He likes 'em young, at any rate .

Heathcliffscathy · 20/01/2007 21:08

good on her. will take her or obama.

unfortunately one is a woman. and the other is black (with a surname that sounds a bit like osama).

therefore there is no chance of either becoming the next president.

expatinscotland · 20/01/2007 21:10

How do you know, soph?

Do you live in America, and therefore have a real grasp of how they will vote?

Have close family and friends in America and discuss policy w/them?

Obama is amazingly popular there.

He'd just better hope Condi doesn't decide to run . . .

expatinscotland · 20/01/2007 21:11

FWIW, it's bullshit to even suggest that Obama has no chance b/c he's black.

And I find it a bit insulting, tbh.

White people are no longer a majority in the US.

But they are here . . .

In fact, the UK's population is over 80% white . . .

But somehow America is the big racist.

Interesting .

suedonim · 20/01/2007 21:12

Expat, what is that people don't like about Hilary? They just don't seem to warm to her but I don't know why.

expatinscotland · 20/01/2007 21:14

She's not very diplomatic, suedo, at winning people round to her line of thinking.

People don't feel they can relate to her.

Obama, on the other hand, well, he's a LOT of what many people in America are: mixed race, the child of divorce, a family man, hard-worker, not too old but not to young, etc.

Obama has a half-sister here in the UK.

expatinscotland · 20/01/2007 21:14

He's bi-racial - Kenyan father, white American mother.

CODNoMore · 20/01/2007 21:15

I LOVE Her
