Washington and Lee held it's mock democratic convention today.

In 100 years they have only been wrong 5 times, (18 out of 23).

What do you think?

I hope so, Hillary can't win a general election unless McCain or Rudy are the Republican nominee.

I hope they're wrong.....I would hate to see the Country be stuck in the grasp of either the Bush or Clinton family any longer.....they have both soiled the White House's reputation, and damaged this country. It's going to take real leadership and commitment on the next Presidents part to deal with current issues, and Hillary isn't even in the ballpark as to being capable of it.
Just my humble opinion, YMMV

Interesting that students chose Hillary because it seems that most students and younger voters in general love Obama.

I think that they're going to be right again. Even with his huge win tonight, he's going to have to have a big day on Super Tuesday.

I think the better question is if Edwards drops out before Super Tuesday, where will his supporters go? He has a solid 15-20% of the vote it seems, and could be the difference in the race.

Edwards, I think, will stick around until Super Tuesday. If he doesn't win any states then, then he will drop out. I have seen polls that say that Hillary will beat every Republican nominee except McCain or Guiliani but this was a month or so ago.

I'll just be glad when the Florida primary is over on Tuesday.
We have been INUNDATED with pre-recorded phone messages from the candidates. :roll:

Ours up here in MA is Tuesday too but I haven't been inundated with calls. Thankfully. Probably because Hillary and Romney have the edge here.

Yeah, you can have my vote too. I normally go republican, but it took so many tries to type this with no errors, I think, that I will meet you in the posting while intoxicated thread...

If Hilliary wins I'll become an expatrioted American somewhere in the Caribbean...... :pirate:

Bill got into enough mischief in the White House when he had a "job". Can you even imagine what he'd do with all that "free time" on his hands as First Man/Husband????? :o

I wonder if that is all those "Unknown Caller" calls that have been showing up on my phone?

Been spending a lot of time at the hospital and when I come home to shower and clean? There's always at least 6 unknown callers....

I don't like any of them. We need statesmen running the country, not politicians.... :evil: :evil: :evil:

I'll second that motion. What has always upset me about our election process is the millions of dollars spent on political campaigns at every level. Think what good all that money could be used for......
