I like the idea of Sen Clinton to debate Sen Obama several times before Mar 4. Hopefully he will agree because this is about issues and background.

California my California! If it goes to McCain then the fat lady has sung. If not, well,

write another check Mitt and get on the bus.

I'm currently in the Army and deployed to Iraq. It's rather ironic that the "war hero" McCain has less support from the troops than the wealthy mormon with no military blood. I've also recently switched my vote from McCain to Romney because he is the only GOP candidate who has integrity which is the heart of the Republican party. Amen.

Of all the talented Mormons, Mitt entered national politics. Pick the guy with the oratory of a barker in a shady carnival. It's not being Mormon. It's Mitt. He's hatred. Like think, can never be creative.

OK Mitt. Can you please pack up your hair gel and go home!

It is not ironic that Romney has more support from than the military than McCain. It's more likely UNTRUE!

A search of the FEC database reveals that Ron Paul has received 1160 donations from military donors. Triple that of John McCain, and more than McCain, Mitt Romney, and Mike Huckabee combined.

According to the FEC reports, these are the total number and amount of military donations for each of the presidential candidates*:

------------Number--------Total donations
Ron Paul: 1160 ---------$249k
John McCain: 438 --------$83k
Mike Huckabee: 126 -----$37k
Mitt Romney: 126 -------$24k
Barack Obama: 443 -----$76k
Hillary Clinton: 154 -------$41k

If McCain is the best we can do, then I'm scared for the future of the country. With no horse in this race, I think I'll sit back and hope the Dems win, so when they screw up the country, it'll be on their watch.
