Didn't you once call her the Hilda-beast? 
She's a tad too socialist for my taste, but her intelligence doesn't intimidate me. I'm tired of this Bush/Clinton/Bush/Clinton dynasty. It's unhealthy to have the same people running the country for that long.
It'll be Romney VS either Hillary or Obama. Huckabee will win Iowa but will be corrected by New Hampshire to Romney. Obama will win Iowa.
I want less government, less taxes and more states rights, plus more Liberal leaning judges. The supreme court is much too far to the right. They don't respect constitutional rights.

And if you're causin' no harm, then you're alright with me.

I have called her the Hilda-Beast--but not in the context of reporting on the Mason City incident. It could have been any of the candidates--she was just the one involved.
QUOTE I want less government, less taxes and more states rights, plus more Liberal leaning judges. You aren't likely to find them in one party. (Edited to add: You may find them in the Constitutional Party)
The Repubs generally favor less government--Dems can't help introducing more bills--and every time you introduce a bill, you not only take away rights from somebody, but you create a government bureaucracy to administer it.
Less taxes--Repubs usually CUT taxes--and Dems think that is a BAD thing. 
States Rights--Repubs are usually FOR the right of states to make their own law, while Dems favor a strong central government and consolodation of power.
More liberal judges--that's not only in confilict with your other stated desires, it's in conflict with QUOTE They don't respect constitutional rights. On the contrary--conservative judges believe that the Constitution means just what it says--AND NO MORE. It is the liberal judges that "find" new meanings in the Constitution--that describe it as a "living, breathing document".
Witness the witless Federal cases, "finding" a rationale for eminent domain, when there is no local need of land--or the Federal judge in Wisconsin that opened Minnesota and Wisconsin lakes to Indian fishing and spearing--despite 3 signed documents selling their rights. She took a page from Edwards, and "channelled" what she THOUGHT the Indians were thinking at the time. Had that been any civil contract, she would have been laughed off the bench. And you want more of THAT?
Just taking a chance here, but I'm guessing that you want to assert a Constitutional right to smoke pot. Fair enough--I don't think the government has a Constitutional ability to regulate it, either. But liberal interpretation of the Constitution have insinuated the ability of government to create all KINDS of bureaucracies not mentioned in the Constitution. Example: Gun control--there wasn't Federal gun control before the 1934 Federal Firearms act--a Rooseveldt initiative. The Rooseveldt Supreme Court upheld the Constitutional challenge--and opened the floodgates for any number of "findings" without benefit of public debate or lawmaking.

I could never vote for her, my wife who always cancels my votes the her blue state voting ways informed me she would NOT vote for Hillary, that was nice to hear.
Her commercial running now really makes me fear should she be nominated/elected............eliminate corporate tax cuts......................not a good idea.
Then she touts oil prices are hurting middle class Americans...........what the hell can she do about oil prices as president?
The one thing I will enjoy if a Dem is president, you know it, global warming will go away.

Far right wing judges have systematicly usurped personal rights. It's shocking really, the personal liberty that's been taken away from us. The liberty guaranteed by the constitution. The numerous and blatant examples are too lengthy to post here.
But this issue is so important and the court so lopsided, that I'll be voting democrat this time around unless Ron Paul wins the nomination. If Pat Robertson will vote for an Italian connected mobster because of judge nominations it shows how important these positions are.

Is that why you deleted the post where you said you were voting Republican? BEEP BEEP...

QUOTE ^How weak is that?
How narrow minded. Guys like you shouldn't be allowed to vote.
The only thing we have to fear is fear itself...FDR BEEP BEEP...
Admit it...these issues are way above your head...
