LOL I'm not sure who all is still in the running!!!!!!!

Clinton

Obama

Huckabee

McCain

Romney

Who else? Is Ron Paul still in? Any others that I'm forgetting?

I think Ron Paul is still in. At least, I heard an ad for him yesterday. I honestly don't think the others have gotten enough exposure to have any real effect on an election, so I wouldn't even include them.

Now here's a question for everyone: Who do you think will pick up Edwards, Clinton or Obama? Or will neither of them?

Someone said something on the radio today that made sense. They said that anyone who is for Hillary is probably already there. Anyone who is not there already is probably not overly inclined to go there. So, Obama will probably get most of the Edwards vote. I think that makes sense. I just don't think there are that many "maybes" when it comes to Hillary.

Don't forget me! I'm seriously considering throwing my hat in the ring. It looks like so much fun to run for president!

Yeah, but do you think one of them will pick him up as their VP candidate if they get the nomination?

It's a good question, I'm not sure. The first time Edwards ran he did not win but he made a pretty good effort and appeared like a winner in terms of having made a good first effort.

This time around, he does not quite seem like a winner. His second effort was disappointing. Not to me, but in general. So, I'm not sure he would seem like an asset for VP.

For myself, personally, I support Edward's positions most of the time. I'm just thinking about how he might fit in to the VP picture.

Also an Edwards Fan, my guess is he'll support Obama - but doubtful he'd accept a VP job..Just my thoughts.

I was surprised that Edwards dropped out. But I have a sneaking suspicion that it may have a lot to do with his wife's health. Recurring cancer is pretty ominous. They were trying to be very upbeat and proactive about her being able to battle cancer this go 'roung, but frankly, I don't think it looks very good. They have small children and even if she is able to get a clean bill of health again, those kids need their parents right now.

Marjon I'd still vote for you.

I don't necessarily agree that most of Edwards' supporters will get behind Obama. Once Obama and Clinton get a debate going just between the two of them, the lines will be clearer.

Whoever it was that was complaining about Mitt's wealth, just remember that McCain's wife inherited big money.

As I said, none of the candidates are in the poor house, but McCain did not stand at the podium on national TV and make the claim that he was the only candidate that had ever worked a "real job". Romney opened that can of worms. :frown:

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
