3. That jerk (I believe federal judge) that
had the whole controversy over the 10 commandments monument. He's thinking of running, which would take a few FAR right wing votes away from Bush. I'll donate to his campaign if he runs! :)

10. Thanks
I knew the name sounded familiar, but I tend to forgot those whom I think are idiots!

He should definitely run!

16. What's a joke?
The fact that I said I'd contribute to his campaign? I might actually consider it if he did run (MOSTLY as a joke), because he has a greater chance of undermining the Bush campaign than almost ANYONE. Think of ALL the religious right voting for that jerk. There goes a HUGE part of Bush's base. RUN, BABY! RUN! (but if he found some way to WIN power, then that "RUN, BABY! RUN!" is directed toward all of US.)

7. OH GOD, wouldn't that be great!
What would George do then????

Talk about being hamstrung with what kind of slams you could do against him!

Can't say he's bringing his religion into politics.
Can't say he's pandering too uch to the right wing.
Can't say he doesn't know the law, 'cause the one he broke was supportetd by George.


OHHHH, run Roy, run!!!

12. Bushco will buy him off
If they ever think he's a serious threat.

Poppy Bush's problem was that Ross Perot was richer than him and couldn't be bought.

13. Should he run? Yes. Will he run? No.
Unfortunately, Bush's call for a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage pretty much preempted Roy Moore's rationale for being the only social (ultra)conservative running for president. I think he knows Bush is of the same Armageddon/Rapture/Fundamentalist mindset as Moore is. Perhaps by not running he will try to curry favor with the Chimp and get a job working for him in his second term.

God help us.

15. I hope so...
He can divide the Republican party, just like Nader did to ours in 2000. Heck I might even pitch in a couple of bucks for Moore...hahahahaha (Don't worry I can't stand him just like most you out there.)
