In fact, Obama HAS cut taxes. Since it's "a new one" to you, I guess it would be more than you thinK. But maybe not more than you thinG.
and can you tell us where he has cut taxes?

It is sad when someone wants to support a candidatae they know nothing about, I think millions did about 18 months ago..As for Newt and Romney, I do not support either, but I also do not blast anyone who does nor do I choose to call the idiots!!!

It is a free country and there are reasons we have elections. I wonder if you as big "know it all" on the golf course?

I don't think she'll run. I honestly don't. First off, there's no way she would ever win (so I actually hope she does run!) But secondly, I don't think she wants to hold public office. She has found another sort of power. Candidates find her support valuable, so she can play kingmaker.

I'm gonna bet Romney is the candidate. And it'll be close, but Obama will win.

Yeah, me too. Have to check him out a little bit more but he's actually worth checking out. I want to see how he treats ALL of Texas, not just the big cities. That's what I plan to check out with every candidate...which ones have a clue about suburban and rural America. I think the Republican Party likes to tamp him down, too, which makes me want to look at him even more.

He could actually fly air force one, himself.

Even mentioning Newt is pretty desperate. Where's dan quayle when you need him? Folks who haven't the self discipline and require morality be legislated upon them are barely responsible citizens let along qualified for office. A candidate with a lifelong history of bankruptcy and daddy bail outs- do your best not to insult our intelligence with that BS again.

Last but not least... One more chicken hawk out of you and I expect open season will be declared. Your buddy cut VA services to those with 401k plans they were ineligible to draw from. He also ordered a special math to include the value of their homes as 'income' (go on, use it as an ATM in mortgage market ). Can we call it suicidal tendencies when too many would have a better health care and pension plan in prison if they went along with your version where the 'free market' ought to correct itself?

He only man could have beaten Obama in 2008 can beat him in 2012 just get rid of those neocons running the party nominations so you have a real choice. America is sending a message and we can get all the independents!!!!

Ron Paul is the only republican who actually is a conservative and and get the independent vote and even some the fringe democrats on the side of liberty.

you have a point but there are two problems, I have at a meeting earlier this morning where this very subject came up. One problem, he isn't personally liked so would have trouble getting the party support and he is about 5 to 10 years too old. Let's see how things so with his son?

Reagan was 69 when he was first elected, 73 when he was re-elected. Paul will be 77 in 2012.
