Is Hillary Clinton to blame for our basketball team's suckiness?

Re: Is Hillary Clinton to blame for our basketball team's suckiness?

Go look at the poll results dude. No Republican was more consistent than Romney in getting votes. McCain and Huckabee just got them when they counted.

If Huckabee doesn't run, Romney beats McCain. But it doesn't matter now.

I'm saying that Romney had no shot at being elected *president* not that he had no chance at getting the nomination.

Gotcha. I misspoke then. I didn't really mean he'd have an easy shot at president. I meant to say "Republican" ticket.

He could've made things interesting at least.

Gee how about 4 more years of Bush, isn't there one in Florida who could run ? Then we could continue with the wars, the current economy, get gas to $4 or $5 per gallon, stay with the health care costs we have & give even greater tax cuts to the wealthy.

Hell Obama without a program is better than what we have today.

Kind of like how our offense runs most of the time. Maybe Jake should go over & watch the women practice, they seem to hit the three & get it into their post players !

They also have a point guard. And a helluva good one, too!

As for Obama, he promises change because that is all you will have left in your pocket after he taxes everything else.

Edwards is a Joke. He used blatant lies for his gain, such as his claims that there were large numbers of homeless veterans "sleeping under bridges" because of our government.

I'm not a big fan of Edwards, but the comment isn't completely out there either. Just come to Iowa City... there certainly are homeless vets sleeping under bridges and behind the building I work in from time to time. They just found a homeless vet dead under the Benton street bridge sometime this winter. The homeless shelter was full and the VA wouldn't take him.

Re: Is Hillary Clinton to blame for our basketball team's suckiness?

I was being sarcastic about Obama. I think something is seriously flawed about our political system when a guy who's only been a senator for 2 years can win the presidency. Obama will do NOTHING for our country. None of the candidates will. Romney was the best candidate but Huckabee screwed his chances.

If Huckabee wouldn't have run, Romney would be our next president.

I disagree. What is seriously flawed about our political sytem is when we think a guy who's only been a senator for 2 years CANNOT win the presidency. Running for or holding political office should not be a career choice.

I think the person who has served the least amount of years will probably be less corrupt...

McCain will do much better than Romney ever would have.

Women have a great point guard, but they also run a lot of Creighton's offense, gee I wonder where they got it ! Post doesn't end up 15 feet from the block area, oh the women also seem to make the three, I doubt if they go 3 for 21 from the arc very often !

Change is all I have left in my pocket now, the big tax savings didn't apply to very many!

Remember all politicians today seem to be full of so who ever said we might be better off with the one who has the least experience isn't too far off. Now if we could make Congress a bunch of first timers we might be up to something. What happened to Newt's promise of term limitations ?????

Enough politics lets blame our team problems on someone & Hillary is as good as anyone to blame ! I'd rather blame Ronald Reguns myself !

One would think, however they could also be swayed much easier than someone who has some experience

Obama has plenty of experience both in and out of government. Editor Harvard law review-community organizer-lawyer-professor U of Chicago- state legislature-best selling author-senator-president.

where is lack of experience? Do you personally know anyone who has half the resume of this guy. I don't.

Not necessarily. It depends on the environment he comes from. Like I said earlier in the thread, Obama is a product of Chicago/Illinois machine politics. Not saying that means there's a bombshell story waiting to break, but there could be something that serves as a distraction, causes him to answer uncomfortable questions, makes people question his ethics, etc. Time will tell. Here's a leading indicator for you...how many times between now and November that Barrack Obama and Tony Rezko are mentioned together in the same news story

That's why I said "I misspoke". Did you not read the post you quoted from me carefully enough?

About 150 years ago a guy who had only been a senator for 2 years was elected president. Prior to that most of his experience was as a lawyer from Illinois. Most people think he turned out okay.

I'm not even for Obama, so spare me the "are you comparing Obama to AL?" comments. I'm just pointing out the flaw in your reasoning.
