This year, both Groundhog Day and the State of the Union address occur on the same day. And, as it has been pointed out, "It is an ironic juxtaposition of events: one involves a meaningless ritual in which we look to a creature of little intelligence for prognostication, while the other involves a groundhog."

It's refreshing to see someone state outright that they're voting Repubican. Sometimes I wonder if people are embarrassed to admit that they're Repubicans. They always tend to say they're voting for the man... but then their choice is always a Repubican.

Republican candidates are all anti labor.

I don't know why anybody would be embarrassed to admit that they are republicans.... really...I'm proud to be a Republican, beyond proud... and I have been since I was a kid growing up... it's great to vote for the "man"... but for me ,if the choice was a democratic man only, I wouldn't vote at all... gee, my bold radical statements show that I'm deinitely not embarrassed to be a republican.... and you know BJean, I agree with you, I like when people are straight forward about the way they feel... I really like that..

Democrat!

Hubby was a delegate for Edwards back when he ran with Kerry. I'm sorry to see him drop out this time... Pam Pittman

I am very disappointed that Edwards dropped out. I had high hopes for him. I guess I'm not the only one who is speculating that his wife has been unable to beat her cancer. I hope we're wrong.

If you vote for a candidate, doesn't that mean you're voting for the man? I mean you're going to get his political party if you vote for him.

I can't imagine anyone actually blindly voting for one party or other without regard to who is actually on the ticket. By the same token I can't imagine voting for the man without regard for his political party.
