Default "socialist" when describing Hillary Clinton

Boy, isn't that the truth? The money that was just spent in Iowa was
absolutely astounding -- and for what?

What's amazing to me is how the money and support in this election cycle
is not following the middle-of-the road candidates. For example, Joe
Biden was, in my mind, the most electable Democrat -- yet he's out today
like bad news.

And the Republicans select Huckabee? A nice guy that admits to not
believing in evolution? That's just downright scary. Yet, today he's


I find it comforting that he doesn't believe in evolution. And I hope
he also doesn't believe in global warming, er, uh, excuse me, global
climate change. It is hard to keep up with all these PC terms. I read
an article recently by a Russian scientist who talks about the coming
global cooling trend that will start in the not too distant future and
run for many decades.

Both of these theories are full of holes you could drive a truck through
so I'm glad Huckabee doesn't subscribe to them. However, there are
other reasons I can't support him unfortunately.

I can't say that there is a single candidate I can get behind at

experience both in business and in politics. I believe the CEO of our
country should have expert beyond law school.
