If its sunday its politics

Other than mere glimpses at the the major stories during he week I pretty much shun all types of news and commercial blurbs. But Sundays are politics. The full line up of Meet he press (I generally like the round table better than the guests - I love the lively discussion.) then the last have hour of Stephanoloupos, (No clue if that is spelled correctly) He is always the most civil of the news shows that i watch. Always dapper smiling and friendly. Even the heated discussions are carried out in the most polite of fashions. Gives one hope for manners in the world.
Then there is The McLaughlin group my favorite for their knock down drag out style while using only proper
English.

The most interesting line up was pat robertson, and Juliani. Could be lethal for both of them
But fun to watch, Juliani wont win anyway

It is still in flux and I am not yet capable of predicting the outcome. I cant see Hillary making it or Obama. Obama is just too young he may be a serious contender in 8 years and I can kinda see him making it big at some point but I don't think this time will be it . Its too hard to imagine Bill as the first lady. And in the end I just don't see America going into he booth or voting for wither a woman or a black man although anything is possible with Diebold machines as the current presidency shows. My pick for who would actually be the best for the country right now on the democratic side Is Bill Richardson. He has a good mix of minority and a forever good tan also has lots of experience in the middle east. He has also done an excellent job for New Mexico. SO he gets my vote. But the most likely I see for is John Edwards winning the nomination. On the republican side I can see Huckabee for the long shot. Although not believing in Evolutions is not a good thing to bring up in debates because it makes you look stupid to the 90% of the country that does. God and science work together not apart. To me its a given God did it the science is figuring out how he did it. There is nothing wrong with understanding the world we live in or believing that a God strong enough to create a universe is capable of understanding that if things don't change and adapt to their environment they die.

Mitt Romney certainly has a good choice and most people do understand that we do all believe in the same god and the fact that the Mormon Bible contains myths is no different than the many myths the standard bible also contains. Myths aren't truly bad its the God that counts and the stories all preach the same message for most of its intrinsic parts, To believe in God and take care of your families. These core value are the same in both religions and most of the people know it. That the Mormon church is run like a business could be a good thing. Maybe thats something we need in our government in some areas.

And those two are the only 2 I can see having a chance at all. But the race is yet young maybe someone who fights for the little guy and is upstanding and full of integrity will come along and sweep us off our feet.
