The Stars Have Voted

[windansea]

SANTA FE, N.M. — If seeking the presidency is like reaching for the stars, then why not look to the stars — and the other heavenly bodies — for insights on the candidates. The Democratic hopefuls face seven primaries today. Here's what their astrological charts can tell voters about their character — and who may have a celestial advantage:

1. kind of fun to read

Thought my man DK came out the best...
Scott

2. wow I have the same birthday as Sen Edwards

but of course a few years younger, 1969.

Going by the charts I would want Kucinich (my first choice) or Clark as they are both warriors, although different kinds.

[windansea]

4. yes they both are warriors n/t

[Maddy McCall]

3. I have the same b'day as Kucinich--minus about twenty years...

That was a fun read.

5. Out of respect for those who take astrology seriously,

I will only say that the descriptions seem to match the candidates' TV personalities quite well. The astrological projections regarding my birthday are apparently as unauspicious as they come, so you'll have to pardon me for turning a deaf ear.

6. my sign is the same as Clarks i need a certain pic to go along w/it

Wesley Clark was born on Dec. 23, 1944, with Sun in Capricorn and Moon in Aries, two leadership and executive signs. He has a warrior signature: when civilized it indicates a master strategist; at its most martial, it is ruthlessly determined and messianic.(does any one have that pic with his halo to go along with that line)

11. glancing at Clarks chart

full of serious squares. Hard road.

7. Hey, they drill Dean.

What a shock!


The only one with pejorative attributes! On the Op-Ed page, no less!

...erratic energy and emotional volatility

Mr. Dean's confrontations with others really reflect his own inner conflict



Horseshit!

[windansea]

8. they aren't very nice to Joe or Al either

I'm just happy they remembered how to spell Clark

[corporatewhore]

9. considering it is the NYTimes i am glad they didnt exclude DK or AS from

the horoscope

[CWebster]

10. NYTimes shameless spin

Note Dean's moon causes shallowness---although it fails to mention that Kerry also has a gemini moon (opposition to sun--in the public sector---10th house? Would that be a Virgo asc, square sun, moon? Don't know, haven't checked)and his future is glowing?

What a set up.

12. Totally random

But I think I remember reading somewhere that the majority of US Presidents have been Geminis and Leos.

If this is true, Edwards has a leg up!

But now I know why I'm a Clark fan, he's a Cap, and I'm a Virgo.
