The only two candidates who are not confirmed for the Dec. 9 debate are Mike Huckabee and Tom Tancredo. Tancredo has centered his campaign on assailing illegal immigration and has said he would never participate in a Spanish-language forum.

Oh, for heaven's sake. Just to show there are no new stories in politics (or maybe that should be "stories," with that whole air quote thing), consider this AP report from Hillary Clinton's first Senate campaign in 2000:
First Lady's Tip Is in the Mail

Sometimes it's a lot better late than never.
More than two weeks after Hillary Rodham Clinton left a restaurant following a free lunch without leaving a tip... http://www.time-blog.com/

One of the unfortunate things about Eric Lindros was that he became a prototype for the type of player that NHL managers wanted. Lindros was a "power forward", a huge guy who played aggressively.
After him, NHL teams started going out of their way to draft 6'4" neanderthals "whose skills were expected to develop". Unfortunately, except for Lindros himself (whose skill was innate) virtually none of those players amounted to anything. In the meantime, smaller players with real skill potential were being drafted in the lower rounds. That mentality translated into the junior hockey ranks and so they decided to go for the neanderthals as well at that level. I think the drop in goal production the NHL experienced starting in the late '90's was a partial biproduct of this mentality. It was telling that the 1998 Canadian Olympic team had a lot of trouble scoring goals. They're main offensive weapons were old geezers.

Dog Shit Mitt sucking wind for BJU:
At an invitation-only meeting held Tuesday with students, faculty and alumni of the fundamentalist Bob Jones University, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney put aside questions about his Mormon faith and focused instead on what he described as his shared values with Christians, according to an audio recording of the meeting obtained by CNN.
Although Romney has often spoken publicly about his efforts to allay the fears of evangelical Christians over his Mormon faith, the audio recording of the event provides a rare glimpse into Romney's private efforts to court the constituency many see as crucial to his presidential bid.
"I get good support from evangelical Christian leadership around the country, you know, despite a difference in religion," Romney told the audience of evangelicals gathered at the Greenville Hilton.

If you read anything about Dennis Kucinich's history, you will realize that he is exceedingly ambitious, and will compromise his princples at the drop opf a hat for electoral success.
He's no better than Hillary Clinton, frankly. The only reason he's doing all of this is because he's so far back in the polls and needs to do something to jumpstart his presidential ambitions (he's been angling to run since 2003).
If HE were the prohibitive favorite like Hillary is now, he'd be acting almost exactly like Hillary is.

Do you have any idea how hypocritical you sound? Do you know what the word projection means in psychology?
You have been the meanest, ugliest MF besides Lee Atwater to dirty our nation. Because of your insidious machinations, the dumbest and worst president in our history has been thrust on this nation. You and he have given us the finger and thumbed your noses at the citizens of the US while you forged ahead with your own agenda. With you gone, part of the stench has been removed from the White House, but there's a lot more to eradicate.
