Not a chance. Not to say i wouldnt vote for a republican or i'm not open to the proposition that Obama might not do a great job but...

I am sincere in my belief that George W. Bush was one of the worst president in our history and there is nothing partisan about that belief. I have never seen an outgoing two term president NOT ALLOWED AT HIS OWN PARTY's CONVENTION.

Think about that.

He had Hoover and Bush a toss up for the worst.

I am holding out on Obama. I like a lot of the things he has done. This ecomony needs all of the stimulus that can be mustered. Surely you took some econ classes at U of A and saw the mistakes of the Depression. I have no problem with doing whatever is necessary to get the wheels turning again even if some of the consequence is future inflation.

I do disagree with him on healthcare right now. It could very well be his waterloo.

There is a wide variety of stimlus available and his choice was way down the list of what I would have chosen. Of course I dont have to reward my political friends and cater to my liberal backers like he does.

He could always reward his friends the republican way. He could start an illegal imperialistic war against a sovereign nation by using false evidence as cause. Then, after we spend billions on bombs made my his buddies to destroy said country, we could give his other buddies no bid contracts to rebuild the place.

yes...the "conservative" way!

There is very little reason to like Jess and the Linda Rice phenomenon is over.
