Alright, this is a little late, I had a mountain of chores to do today that I had forgotten about.
First the Republican candidates on some issues I haven't covered yet.
John McCain
Energy- Proposes a strategy that will rely on America's technology and industry. Believes that barriers to nuclear energy are political, and not technological.
Same-Sex Marriage- Supports definition of marriage as something between a man and a woman, but opposes a constitutional amendment against same-sex marriage. He says the question should be up to the states.
Taxes- Proposes a plan his supporters call the "Fair Tax," which would repeal income and other taxes and abolish the Internal Revenue.
Mike Huckabee
Energy-Says the first thing he will do as president is send Congress a comprehensive plan for energy independence and would achieve energy independence by the end of second term.
Same-Sex Marriage- Strongly opposes same sex marriage.
Taxes- Also supports the "Fair Tax," singed a pledge to never raise taxes.
The Democrats
Barack Obama
Energy- Proposes reducing carbon emissions by 80 percent by 2050 by using a market based cap-and-trade, supports next generation biofuels.
Same-Sex Marriage- Opposes same-sex marriage, but also opposes a constitutional ban. Supports civil unions.
Taxes- Opposed extending bush tax cuts through 2010. Supports eliminating marriage penalty, and extending child tax credits. Supports scaling back capital gains and dividends tax cuts and re-examining tax benefits for the top one percent of earners.
Hillary Clinton
Energy-Proposes a cap-and-trade program that auctions 100 percent of permits alongside investments. Would reduce electricity consumption by 20 percent from projected levels by 2020 by changing the way utilities do business.
Same-Sex Marriage- Opposes same-sex marriage, but supports civil unions. Says states should ultimately decide the issue, opposes a constitutional amendment.
Taxes-Opposed 2001 and 2003 Bush tax cuts. Opposed extending tax cuts through 2010.
So, we'll see what happens. The races are close, so I'm not going to make any predictions.

Mini-Tuesday!
Well, I'm back, and feeling better than I have in over a year. But, it's time to focus on what's really important- The primaries on March 4th, or "Mini-Tuesday", that could decide the Democratic nomination! (Take that, Super delegates!)
The 4 states up for grabs are Texas, Ohio, Rhode Island, and Vermont.
The current front runners according to Real Clear Politics-
Texas Democrats:
Clinton 46.8%, Obama 46.5%
Texas Republicans:
McCain 53.2%, Huckabee 34.4%, and Paul 6%
Ohio Democrats
Clinton 49.3%, Obama 42.9%
Ohio Republicans:
McCain 55.8%, Huckabee 27.8%, Paul 6.2%

Rhode Island Republicans
A broken link, so no info.
Vermont Democrats
55% Obama, 36% Clinton
Vermont Republicans
68% McCain, 17% Huckabee, 5% Paul
It's anyone's game in the Democratic Primary. Tomorrow I'll do another issue comparison for the frontrunner's of both parties, as well as my predictions of who will win.

Mitt Romney drops out of the Race and Space Shuttle Atlantis!
Well, Mitt Romney dropped out the Presidental race today- Here's a copy of parts of his announcement for anyone who hasn't seen or heard it.
In this time of war, I simply cannot let my campaign be a part of aiding a surrender to terror. This is not an easy decision. I hate to lose." "If this were only about me, I'd go on. But it's never been only about me. I entered this race because I love America, and because I love America, in this time of war I feel I have to now stand aside for our party and for our country."
I had really thought that Mike Huckabee would have dropped out before Romney, but sometimes you just can't predict those politicians. They're sneaky little devils.
Also, in some super exciting news, Space Shuttle Atlantis lifted off without a hitch today! If you missed the launch, later today there will be video up at www.nasa.gov
Just a short update for today- I'm working on something big at the moment.

SUPER TUESDAY!
For anyone who lives in a Super Tuesday state, and maybe hasn't made up their mind yet, (like me.) I thought I'd give a rundown on the candidates of both parties, along with their positions on popular issues. For those not in a Super Tuesday state, or is lucky enough to live outside of this political mess, I hope that you get a laugh. (Note: all information used came from http://ontheissues.org/ as well as candidate’s official web sites)
First up, the Republican Party-
John McCain-
Abortion: Wishes to reverse Roe vs. Wade, and leave the decision on abortion up to the states.
Stem Cell Research: Supports Stem Cell Research, but opposes the intentional creation of human embryos for research purposes.
National Security: America requires a larger and more capable military to protect or country's vital interests and deter challenges to our security.
Border Control: Borders will be secured, and then illegal immigrants can earn citizenship.
Gun Control: Believes that the right of law abiding citizens to keep and bear arms is a fundamental, individual Constitutional right that we have a sacred duty to protect.
War in Iraq: "Timetable for withdrawal a white flag of surrender" and "Staying for 100 years is ok, as long as US casualties are low.
Health Care: More federal funding for health care coverage, and insurance reforms.
Mitt Romney-
Abortion: Pro-life record, believes Roe vs. Wade should be overturned so that the issue of abortion can be returned to the American people and their elected representatives at the state and federal level.
Stem Cell Research:"It is time to move beyond typical Washington politics, and offer support for stem-cell research techniques that bring science and ethics together to promote life, protect life, and save lives."
National Security: Must strengthen the military and dedicate at least four percent of our gross domestic product to defense.
Border Control: Secure the border, implement an enforceable employer verification system, and punish sanctuary cites and reject amnesty.
Gun Control:
"It is my hope that the Supreme Court will reaffirm the individual right to keep and bear arms as enshrined in the Bill of Rights and protect law abiding gun owners everywhere. To further guard this fundamental liberty, as President, I will take care to appoint judges who will not legislate from the bench but will instead strictly interpret the Constitution."
War In Iraq: Timetable for Troop reduction ok, but not for withdrawal.
Health Care: States should lead the healthcare reform, must expand and de-regulate the private health insurance market.
Mike Huckabee-
Abortion: Pro-Life, we must overturn Roe vs. Wade, supports constitutional amendment to protect the right of life.
Stem Cell Research: Opposed to research on embryonic stem cells.
National Security: Believes we are currently engaged in a world war, top priority of a Commander in Chief is protecting his citizens.
Border Control: Securing borders must be top priority and has reached the level of national emergency. Opposes amnesty.
Gun Control: Second amendment is about freedom, not about hunting, allow conceal and carry.
War in Iraq: Setting a timetable for withdrawal is a mistake. This country has never declared war until "a week from Wednesday," we have always declared war until victory.
Health Care: Believes that the health care system is broken, due to the fact it is not a "health" system. We don't need universal health care mandated by federal edict.
Ron Paul-
Abortion: Prime sponsor of HR 300, which would negate the effect of Roe v Wade by removing the ability of federal courts to interfere with state legislation to protect life. This is a practical, direct approach to ending federal court tyranny which threatens our constitutional republic and has caused the deaths of 45 million of the unborn.
Stem Cell Research: Embryonic stem cell programs are not constitutionally authorized.
National Security: Believes we don't need troops abroad, they don't help our defense.
Border Control: 6 point plan to secure our borders includes: physically securing our borders and coastlines, enforcing visa rules, no amnesty, no welfare for illegal aliens, end birthright citizenship, and pass true immigration reform.
Gun Control: Believes that in a free society each citizen should have the right to keep and bear arms.
War in Iraq: Believes we invaded under false pretenses without a constitutionally-required declaration of war. Wants to devise and execute a plan to immediately withdraw our troops in the safest manner possible.
Health Care: Remove federal regulations and encouraging competition to lower health care costs.
And now, the Democratic candidates.
Barack Obama-
Abortion: Believes in a women's right to choose.
Stem Cell Research: Wants more stem cell research.
National Security: Believes in more protection for our chemical plants, keeping track of spent nuclear fuel, keeping drinking water safe, and protecting our public from radioactive releases.
Border Control: Wants to create secure borders, improve the immigration system, and remove incentives that entice illegal immigrants, bring people out of the shadows, and work with Mexico.
Gun Control: wants to limit gun purchases and enforce stricter possession restrictions
War in Iraq: No permanent bases in Iraq, have our troops home by the end of 2009.
Health Care: Quality, affordable coverage for all and modernization of the healthcare system.
Hillary Clinton:
Abortion: Believes in a women's right to choose.
Stem Cell Research: Wishes to expand embryonic stem cell research.
National Security: Supports more missile defense, believes National Security more important than human rights.
Border Control: Believes in strengthening our borders, working with our neighboring countries, strict but fair enforcement of our laws, and a path to earned legal status for those who are here, working hard, paying taxes, respecting the law, and willing to meet a high bar.
Gun Control: Wants to get assault weapons and guns off the street, stricter gun control laws.
War in Iraq: Wishes to withdraw our troops as soon as possible, and employ a new intensive Diplomatic Initiative in the region.
Health Care: Plans to make healthcare affordable, available, and portable.
Well there you go- the candidates’ positions on some of the top issues in this Presidential election. As for me, I still don't know who to vote for. I don't really like anyone enough to get excited about them.
Oh well- I'll decide eventually.

The Crazy Presidential Race!
Well, with John Edwards out of the Democratic Presidential Race, and Rudy Giuliani out of the Republican, I feel like I can guarantee that the craziness that has been this presidential election so far is about to get crazier.
Between the people asking if Obama is black enough, to can Hillary Clinton handle the Presidency, can Mitt Romney be elected because of his Mormon religion, am I the only one standing on a mountain yelling, "Can we PLEASE just focus on the ISSUES people?"
Honestly, we should just stick the candidates in boxes, not tell anyone what their names are, and have them debate on the issues. When the elections are over, they get to come out of the box. We actually would elect a President on the ISSUES! Such a strategy has never been tried before! It's a groundbreaking new concept! GASP!

What's that sound in the air...
Well, it's January, and you know what that means!
The whining of the Presidential Candidates!
I don't know about you guys, but as much as I love the craziness that is politics, I can't STAND when the candidates start sniveling and complaining about how they're getting attacked. If I'm old enough to know that as asinine as it is, that's basically what goes on during a Presidential election. You put your good (or bad) name out there, and your opponents try to tear you to bits.
Why is this such a surprise to them, I have no idea. This has gone on since before Abraham Lincoln's time, and will likely continue until the Sun explodes. (Or until we adopt another system of government.)
Don't get me wrong, I think that the attack ads are stupid, but we live in a society where there is (supposedly) free speech. I want a candidate that's going to be able to man (or woman) up and deal with this without crying to the media (or their mommy) about the so-called injustice of it all every time someone says something bad.
Memo to the Presidential Candidates- It's not the Elementary school playground anymore. You're big boys and girls. Deal with it.

Quotes from the Frontrunners
As the primaries loom closer... I present- Quotes from the front runners of both parties (with commentary!).
REPUBLICANS
Rudy Giuliani-
"Freedom is about authority. Freedom is about the willingness of every single human being to cede to lawful authority a great deal of discretion about what you do and how you do it."
Actually Rudy, Freedom is defined as liberation from slavery or restraint or from the power of another and/or a political right.
"There are many qualities that make a great leader. But having strong beliefs, being able to stick with them through popular and unpopular times, is the most important characteristic of a great leader. "
Hmm... and you've done that Rudy?
Fred Thompson-
"China is one of the world's greatest proliferators of weapons of mass destruction to these rogue nations."
I have no words on this one- just another quote from him-
"Clearly, the Chinese know that we want a good relationship with them."
I would stick with playing an authority figure Fred- not actually being one.
Mitt Romney-
"And a special thank you to the citizens of Massachusetts: You are paying all the taxes, creating all the jobs, raising all the children. This government is yours. Thank you for letting me serve you. I love this job."
Hmm... It seems to me that there are children, taxpayers, and new jobs in the other 49 states- and the government doesn't belong to Massachusetts alone.
"Ronald Reagan was a president of strength. His philosophy was a philosophy of strength - a strong military, a strong economy and strong families."
Do I even have to point out the problems with this one?
Mike Huckabee-
"One thing governors feel, Democrats and Republicans alike, is that we have a health care system that, if you're on Medicaid, you have unlimited access to health care, at unlimited levels, at no cost. No wonder it's running away."
Actually- One of the BIG problems of Medicaid is that it LIMITS the access to quality health care. Not to mention it rations the treatments and services that you can receive.
"The health care system is really designed to reward you for being unhealthy. If you are a healthy person and work hard to be healthy, there are no benefits."
Wake up Huckabee- Under the Family and Medical Leave act, you get up to 12 weeks of UNPAID leave in a twelve month period. Sick wages are often much less than normal too... do you call that a reward?
DEMOCRATS
Hillary Clinton-
"I'm not going to have some reporters pawing through our papers. We are the president."
Besides the obvious grammatical errors... Hillary- your husband was the president. Not you. He may have asked you for advice on occasion, but he was the president. It's not a tandem job.
"If I want to knock a story off the front page, I just change my hairstyle."
Ok... so you're going to knock front page stories- which often do with good deeds, or the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan- because you want to change your hairstyle. I'm sure our fighting men and women really appreciate how much time you spend on your hair.
Barack Obama
"No one is pro-abortion."
I think the pro-choice people would argue you on that point.
"We worship an awesome God in the Blue States, and we don't like federal agents poking around our libraries in the Red States. We coach Little League in the Blue States and have gay friends in the Red States. "
This quote is simply wrong in so many ways- especially when you hear this one-
"There is not a liberal America and a conservative America - there is the United States of America. There is not a black America and a white America and Latino America and Asian America - there's the United States of America."
So if there's not a liberal America and a conservative America- surely there's no Red States or Blue States, since we're simply "The United States of America."
John Edwards-
"I was wrong to vote for this war. Unfortunately, I'll have to live with that forever. And the lesson I learned from it is to put more faith in my own judgment."
How was your judgement when you had your campaign pay for your $400 dollar haircut?
