Bay Area Cat said:I'm not sure the Republicans are quite ready to nominate a black woman for President who, ummmm, isn't exactly married to a dude.
But if they do, then I will be very, very impressed, and will probably vote for her!
Bay Area Cat said:You're the one who claims to be a Republican ... you tell me what people would say. How many politicians (especially Republicans) get nominated in this country without being "good family people?"
And there are many, many stories out there that suggest that she just might be gay. Could that hurt her in a political party that includes people who think that gays are defective? Oh yeah. It doesn't matter if it is true or not ... all that matters is if whoever she runs against has their people start a whisper campaign, and she loses large parts of the country instantly.
So yes, the fact that she's not married (and therefore not a family person and even * gasp * possibly gay) would probably kill her chances of getting the Republican nomination.
But if the Republicans could distance themselves from the evangelicals long enough to make a decision based on qualifications and intelligence (a nice change of pace, no doubt), and as a result she got nominated, nobody would be happier about it than me.

But if she did get the nomination, imagine, with the scenario you described she'd get 99.9% of the vote. Dems could nominate Christ himself and lose...........Forgive me Father.
ursusmissoulus said:Well Dems, what a frontrunner for you. GA and REmax, I would consider getting involved with your party and spending less time trying to convince Reps they're wrong. That hag has a snowballs chance in you know where of getting elected. Oh sure, she does well in the lib strongholds, so would Peewee Herman if he ran Dem. Even ol' Bill didn't want to put his eggs in her basket. What a joke! I hope she fronts the ticket. You guys have worn out the hind teat lately but maybe there's just enough left to keep you alive.
Nov. 6 every two years is an important day to remember, see ya there. :dance: :dance: :dance:
