If you aren't impressed by these peoples' reasons, all I can say is ... OMG, you should have seen the responses in the Repug primaries earlier! :puke:

2. I thought they were good responses; most of the people seemed to
have given the candidates some thought. And no, I'm not interested in what the rethug responses were. :)

3. Thanks for posting that.
Seems like a good mix. And people are thinking. That's always good. Better than "I am voting for so and so because I'd love to have a beer with them.":)

9. Very nice. I'm proud of my fellow Americans. What do you want to
Edited on Thu Jan-24-08 07:26 PM by LandOLincoln
bet that not a single one of those people knows or cares about the crap spewed by the MSM or the interminable foodfights on blogs like this one. Interesting too that these were BBC interviews. Can't help but suspect they asked much more substantive questions than our media would.
