No need for 50 caucus threads, so I’ll just piggyback on Iowa. Results are coming in: > The first ballots were cast in Dixville Notch, a hamlet of about 75 near the Canadian border. > > People there favored Sen. John McCain of Arizona in the Republican primary – he got four votes – and Sen. Barack Obama of IIlinois in the Democratic contest, who won seven votes. > > Obama and McCain also won in midnight voting in Hart’s Location, population 42. The two senators hope to see those results duplicated statewide. ---

> [@Nikuk](#): > > Has anyone checked to see if JayS is alive?? > > :eekdance: Checking in, still alive. Not worth getting worked up until we’re at least down to 2 candidates. Honestly, I’m going to try to moderate myself in the political threads this year because it’s simply not worth arguing with people who make such stupid comments as “I’m voting for who ever the democrat candidate is because I don’t like Bush and all Republicans = Bush”. :bloated: I look forward to some good debate with informed people like Joe, and will probably end up adding a lot of other people to my ignore list. I will say this as to the primary stuff though. Watching how the field is basically eliminated by a tiny minority of people in a couple key early primary states makes me sick about how flawed the system is. And yes, I laughed my ass off watching Hilldog cry about losing Iowa. That’s just the kind of leadership this country needs; someone who will break down in tears over losing a straw poll. ---

Funny because thats more commonly said among your political pals (russian and Jeg). Not to mention your constant use of the word liberal! I will probably be voting republican this year mainly because I don’t like either obama or clinton but that doesnt mean i will never consider a democrat… ---

I would vote for a dem If i had the slightest inclination that they could pull us out of this tailspin we are in. Our Economy, the War, our Foreign Policy and the ties with our so called allies that have gotten really stressed. Most of our Allies are still allies with us becuase they realize its far easier to stay on our side then go out on there own. We need to do something about China and its gross abuse of our economy, with lead covered toys to a huge demand for oil. We need to be energy independent but cannot be Isolationist like some people want, Romney and Ron Paul. We need to start exporting more of our goods that countries want than importing all the shit we dont need and can make ourselves. John McCain is the only Presidential Candidate with any Military experience, knows what its like to be at war on a personal level, and knows what its like to be a Prisoner of War, If you watched some of the debates he called out Romney because Romney insuniated that waterboarding was Ok. He is the only one that stuck up for his beileifs on the war, when no one would side with him, other people changed to fit in with the crowd. He is the only Candidate to be part of the new plan we are using in Iraq that is working and he pushed hard to get it instated. He is also one of the few candidates that wants us to keep our guns, even though he doesnt own himself. He refuses to raise taxes, wants to restructure several branches of the goverment and dissolve some that are useless to get us out of this deficit. He also is one of the main people involved in securing Arizonas and the Countries border with mexico. I have to get back to work but thats all for now. ---
