• Huntsman: 'Bimbo eruptions' cause for Cain reconsideration

  Tue Nov 29, 2011
  • I agree that Jon's choice of description for these women associated with Cain as 'bimbo' is very unfortunate...he struck me as the only sane one in the bunch (or at least pandered to the base the least), but I really do not approve of his characterization.

• Do you agree with Rolling Stone's list?

  • Hendrix - Absolutely! But this list left off one of the best blues guitarists - Buddy Guy! Without him you don't have Hendrix OR Clapton!

• Doctors: Under the drug industry's influence?

  • Chris-537131: When I read posts like yours, where every single statement you make is inaccurate/false/ridiculous, I realize that the pharmaceutical industry is doing a very poor job indeed at educating the public about what they do.

  • To me it's interesting that some of her recent comments where she apparently disagrees with McCain's policies and campaign strategy - not really a team player, is she?  If I were part of McCain's ticket, I would be looking out for my future political life as well...

• Barack Obama has a trump card

  Wed Oct 22, 2008
  • I think the McCain campaign was fatally damaged when he picked her - they lost their only message of Obama not having enough experience, and never found a new one that resonated.  I think the polls show that she has managed to bring the ticket down on her own, without the Obama campaign …

• Poll: Voters souring on McCain, Obama steady

  Fri Oct 17, 2008
  • Michr - The Gallup polls had the race at 51/42 Obama on Tuesday, 50/43 Obama on Wednesday, 49/43 Obama on Thursday, and 50/43 Obama on Friday, which effectively covers the pre and post debate period - where do you get your numbers?  Probably the same place Palin got her …
