Harry Reid - Democratic Presidential Candidate 2008?
Edited on Tue Aug-23-05 02:34 PM by LoKnLoD
I had insomnia last night and was just thinking stuff over, and it hit me, Harry Reid for President. Who better in the Democratic party could win over the Red States. He is just such a likeable guy, religious but not christian whacko like Frist. Has a great American story in his life, came from poverty and all that. Gutsy, scrappy kind of guy, but trustworthy looking like your college professor or something. The only problem is the Mormon thing(not Mormon bashing or anything), I can hear the Rove whispers already - "Harry has five wives in a compound in the Nevada desert". Am I way out there?

1. I honestly don't know.
I don't agree with Reid on many of the issues, and I've never really seen him give a speech that seemed persuasive, but I think we should have as many people as possible give it a go in '08 so as to ensure the best possible candidate, who most likely will not be Hillary. :D

2. He will be about 78 years old by then; and he just suffered a minor
stroke. He's a good man, but may be a little past it.

in the first place he is not a democrat --

He is pro war and he supports bushies war -- any war.

He is a Christan wacko -- he is a Mormon.

He hates women--

He is a wolf in lamb's clothes -- he is a PHONY.

I will Never again vote for a Republican who calls himself or herself a Democrat -- NEVER.

And I don't care if you are trying to be funny --

Reid is an ass hole -- and he is NO friend of women.

He is a mormon and we do not want any more religious wack-o ding bang nut cases in the white house.

Reid is a phony -- and it amazes me how many are fooled by his act.

He is first and foremost a MORMON. And NO mormon is a friend of women.
