and again the thread is dragged back in time to measure against Bush.....let's see what was the subject of the thread?
Hey you retrospective measurers, how is this group compared to the like group of democrats prior to the 2008 election?
Never mind I know the answer. If one could block the faces and the year and which party it would sound no different than we have seen this far this year.

Just like the democratic puff up debates (all political debates that is) prior to the nomination of Obama....the republicans will joust and make fools of themselves as a group just like the dems did. Then one will survive the rest. And that one will have a lot of speeches and words and promises to make....then we can really compare which circus has/had the best clowns
