D'you ever get the mad impulse to do the L sign at her ?

Saturn74 · 03/06/2008 23:45

Good try, Hills, but no cigar?

Oh, come on, girls. American politics is hideous.

Obama had the most money. This isn't about iconic black man/white woman elections. This is about who stuffed the most cash in the right places at the right time.

They all suck.

I will lay good odds on you, Kerry, that Obama will beat McCain.

It's the Democrats who'll have the next eight years. Either way, it won't amount to a whole hill of bins.

A person of stature comes around in every generation, and I for one, am still waiting.

I will give you £100 if John McCain wins. You may want to adjust that to your weirdo, euro thingy bobby.

That's an honest bet, between blokes

It's not recipricol, because I don't expect to lose. If the white boy peanut head wins, you don't owe me.

But he won't.

And I'm amazed that you can't see that.

In fact, I'm FUCKING amazed that you can't see him coming.

And Hilary's has been as pure as the driven snow!

I wonder if she will press to be his running mate? She's certainly not conceding anything yet.

I don;t think Hillary could have done it. Has she conceded yet? The Private Eye cartoons were v funny

No not yet. Last night (our time) she was saying the only way he could win was with her as his running mate, but this morning she's saying it isn't over.

I know more about American politics than English thanks to this guy

My daughter has been in the USA for the last year and says the UK coverage is very different to the USA coverage. She has mixed with many ordinary USA students, not only East coast and West coast types and the general consensus is that the ordinary USA citizens will not vote for either a 'black' or a woman and so McCain will win, unbelievable though that is to us. Many people say they will vote for Obama or Clinton but won't actually when it comes down to it. Presume this is what Kerrymum means. Quite hideous really.
