This thread...

See ya in four years.

You kiddin' me?
The next election starts as soon as the polls close on this one. Hell - I would go as far to say that Colin Powell's endorsement of Obama was serving as his unofficial opening shot in the 2012 election. The Republican party is going to eat itrself alive after this and it will be interesting to watch how this sorts out...this might be when the libertarian party comes into it's own.
Hey, nice marmot!

CNN is reporting that Senator Obama's grandmother has died from cancer.  Really sad.

This has got to be such a conflicting time for him - my thoughts go out to him and his family.

How sad. I was crossing my fingers that she would make it to see her grandson make history.

True (I forgot how old he was) and he has said he would never want that office - all I'm saying is that the next election starts as soon as this is over.

I still don't understand why that Chaney fellow didn't run this year. He seems like a nice enough man.
