Bar none. It's Bob Barr for president 08
He will be? What a waste of ink (unless its digital).

She looks like that teacher in those music videos that starts teaching and then pulls the pencils out of her hair and all the boys go crazy. I dont know, that is just what comes to mind when I see her.

The freedom to express one's opinion through voting is never a waste.

Fill in would have been better. The ones that have a chance of winning should be the ones on there.

Anyone taking the time and effort to be on a ballot deserves a place, period. We have gotten to a point where only the rich, famous, or well connected can run. Its a process that is open to anyone, if you show the effort and are serious about the job, you belong on there. Arbitrary limitations on who can/cant be on a ballot are not a fair way of doing elections.

lilypad, oxcepo ... Palin is an extremely beautiful person inside and out, she just had her 5th child, who she knew would have down syndrome. I believe it will be McCain/Romney this year for many reasons (one of which we know McCain will not choose a woman VP). If they lose, Romney will run in 2012 for president and perhaps go with Bobby Jindal as VP. Romney could then boast again about his economic prowess. If might be better for the GOP to toss this election and just give it to them dems, it will simply be another 4 more years.

With McCain it will be just another four years. With Obama, it will be the outright attempt to destroy our country as we know it. Both are harmful, just a matter of degree.
