Lindsey Graham is running. And Gov. Pataki is supposed to run as well.

Who is to the right of Huckabee on social spending, to the right of Paul on foreign policy, and has a larger cock than Graham.

Hey jon-

The candidate you are going to vote for- she only recently "evolved" on gay marriage

Up until that point, she was a HATER zomg lol!!!

I remember her saying something like marriage bei G between a man and a woman as something as AGELESS AS the THREADS OF TIME or something like that

You may laugh at the number of candidates the GOP is putting out there, but that's a much better sign of political health than the coronation going on for the candidate you're going to vote for.

Graham's a cracker, so a candidate of color should have a larger cock.

At least she evolved. Unlike all of the GOP field.

No - it is a sign that the GOP is a cluster right now.

this is no different than the 1988 Primaries - basically a coronation for GHW Bush, while every Democrat that every held an office ran for President.

Geez Jon, Obama was against gay marriage and for only civil unions when you voted for him the first time. He knew he needed the votes in '12, so he flipped.

I know - he was better than McCain, but there were areas I was not happy about him.

I was banned from Democratic Underground for two years (along with other LGBT posters) for criticizing Obama on gay rights.

I always find it odd when partisans of one party try to say another party is in disarray or "a cluster". I certainly won't argue that the GOP lacks a real good frontrunner for the Presidential nomination - of course they lack one - but the GOP as a party is hardly in disarray. The Presidential race isn't about party, it rarely is - it's mostly about the persons running for the office. If people end up picking Clinton over Bush, it will be because they like her more (or hate her less) than the other candidate. Not because she's a Democrat and he's a Republican. Where race does have more of an impact, the GOP is doing pretty well despite most people questioning whether it can still be considered a national party: control of the House, control of the Senate, and control of 31 of 50 state governorships.

The GOP doesn't have a headliner, while the Dems still have one in Clinton (but no one really after her). That's the Presidential race.

Yeah, she's evolved alright. But only because she knows she needs those votes. And those voters are one-issue voters...
