Does anyone know, has Thom endorsed a candidate? If yes, who? If not, does anyone have an idea of who he would endorse if he were to do so? Does anyone know, who would he endorse if it were only between Obama and Clinton?
I rarely have time to come on here or in the chat room. Thanks everyone.

I guess you mean what ever Democrat is nominated. If McCain or Huckabee are nominated by the Republicans, how will you be able to tell them from the Democrats?
A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship.

By who they would put on the SCOTUS bench, the federal district court appointments, [probably one's seeking biblical law...or whoever God tell's Huckabee to pick] Constitutional amendment for God's standards
quote:
From NBC/NJ's Adam Aigner-Treworgy WARREN, Mich. -- Huckabee's closing argument to voters here this evening featured a few new stories and two prolonged sections on illegal immigration and Christian values.
These two topics usually feature prominently in Huckabee's stump speech, but last night he got specific, promising to build a border fence within 18 months if elected and elaborating on his belief that the constitution needs to be amended.
"[Some of my opponents] do not want to change the Constitution, but I believe it's a lot easier to change the constitution than it would be to change the word of the living God, and that's what we need to do is to amend the Constitution so it's in God's standards rather than try to change God's standards,"
[Some of my opponents] do not want to change the Constitution, but I believe it's a lot easier to change the constitution than it would be to change the word of the living God, since he talks to him, has he really asked God if he could change his mind?, Or at least say it again, [maybe book him -God- on Larry King, or Oprah, or better yet...O'Riley]

Slightly off topic, but what has happened to all the talk Thom used to do about about Instant Runoff Voting? Now that the Dem have the majority this would have been a great opportunity to push for this legislation. And the way things are shaping up with money being such an important factor and all the primaries being pushed up early, the progressive candidates get weeded out in favor of the corporate ones.
