Bunny MeadowsParticipant
Voting is so ingrained into me…my dad was a precinct captain in Chicago for the original Mayor Daley (in the 60s and 70s). There was never any question in our house that we were Dems and that when we turned 18 we would do our civic duty and vote.
That having been said, I’m not a mindless idiot. I DO take a look at the issues. Unfortunately, this time I’m just not dazzled by any of the candidates – GOP or Dem.
I agreed with a previous poster that the Clinton years were a time of peace and prosperity. Maybe if Hill is in office, Bill will be a “shadow” president. That is about the only thing that would prompt me to vote for her!

Bunny MeadowsParticipantThanks to both of you! I had a feeling it was boilerplate – just wasnt sure.
I suppose it’s to let “picky” buyers know that the front door wont be fixed, cracks in the wall, etc.
I’ve been shocked at the condition of some of the repos I’ve seen – I mean, like banisters ripped off the staircase, holes in the wall, sinks pulled out. It’s just sad. If I was in a foreclosure/repo situation, I’d be sad and disappointed, but I wouldnt trash the place.
My husband has pointed out that if we look at a house that is/around 10 years old, we have to be aware that things like the furnace or a/c may need to be replaced, etc. The normal things that break down around that time.
Thanks so much for your replies. You guys are GREAT!
bunny kisses,

Bunny MeadowsParticipantI’m a long-life Democrat and am beginning to agree with Temecula Guy. I know that writing local officials and politicans has much more of an impact.
Call me jaded, but I think the president staffs the government with friends and cronies (sheeeshhh…we all remember “Brownie” after Katrina, right?) Plum diplomatic posts are awarded to $upporter$, etc. Then, backrooms deals are cut that support the President’s $upporter$ and agenda.
I’m not wild about ANY of the dem candidates. As a woman, I really want to like Hillary. I loved Bill (much to my husband’s dismay). But, I dont think she can really win.
If you look at their websites, with their issue positions, it’s almost laughable. John Edwards wants to “end poverty in a generation” along with other grandiose (and unrealistic) goals. Yeah, right. They all blow a lot of smoke at us…and nothing ever really changes.
The one candiate that scares the CRAP out of me is Huckabee…I’m tired of mixing religion and politics, and dont really want to see a Baptist minister in the Oval Office. Especially one with a son that tortures animals for fun (http://www.newsweek.com/id/78241)
Sorry for the rant. I’d better go eat something. I’m hypoglycemic and cranky…
