23. I don't agree, there may be a few problems with how things
are done, but "destiny", no way.

We create the future, there is no established "destiny", we far too often, forget that we truly do have the power to get things done.

I cannot fall into a CT yipe thing about how things are "meant to be". I don't even have a candidate yet, I think from what I've seen so far, they are all pretty shallow, and the one I might lean toward is getting no support at all.

I figure it this way, each one of them is just one gaffe away from being history. The ghoul isn't worth a tinkers dam, and everyone knows it. Hillary has a LOT of baggage, not the least of which is the very real shudder people should feel about a bush, Clinton, bush, Clinton scenario. I have nothing against Hillary, but the whole "dynasty thing is really disturbing to me.

ANYTHING can happen, one of the candidates could get seriously ill, one could die, another might just drop out, or someone might jump in, (unlikely, but possible).

As far as Pat Robertson....his backing spells the kiss of death to whomever receives such a "blessing". The majority of Americans are finally viewing the "religious Right" in a dim light. They have helped to put bush and others in power, people don't like that, and even the RR's membership is fractured.

It ain't over till it's over. I won't lay down and speak of inevitability, doesn't suit me...:)
