Given those parameters I would have to go with Redheads. Not because they look better, but because in my very limited experience with females, they act better.

Will always fall for black hair, in case you are curious!

Good question.

I am basing this not on what is happening now, but on what I project as happening up till 2012.

House...24

Senate...4

We do not take control, but since Obama cant get things done with this majority, he will really have to start a bi-partisan conversation to get things done afterwards.

That is like asking who would be a best secret admirer. You do not see them.

Please explain the difference between an imaginary friend, a room full of imaginary friends, schizophrenia, multiple personality disorder, delusion, hallucination, and the "silent majority."

1 I am going with 5.

2 7 for her ability to do the job, 3 for her ability to win the job

3 BHO.

4 Of those two Savage. He has advocated violent actions against the government.

5 Minnesota Hard to go Against Favre and Petterson

6 I believe he is deciding if he would rather lose for Prez or win for Senator

7 Open ended question yes. None of the current ones. Public option and Abortion can kill them.

8 2012, if the world ends. If not as soon as were are out of Korea, Europe and Gitmo.

9 $3.55

10 Just after we are out of the Middle east, lol. I say 4 months.

1 An imaginary friend is someone children invent as a way to cope with life issues

2 Could not find this in print. Suggest some low cost counseling.

3 I believe it is having to versions of you. Kind of like the Spock with a beard.

4 One step farther. You are 2 separate people with no connection.

5 This would be you if you dont think I get the point here.

6 Thinking something that has been proven false is real, like the -5 myth or Truther crap.

7 I do not understand how this fits. I think the name is throwing you. I cannot prove that the silent majority is actually a majority. In the same way that both sides of issues like Abortion claim majorities, I am taking a little poetic license here.

Remember in High School when you were doing a class project and someone had to get up and speak to the class. It was always the same kids. Some people stand up and speak for others. Some people can make thier point in public better. Admiral Stockdale proved that even a war hero genius can look stupid in front of a crowd.

You want to dump these people in the trash heap of public debate. You want them to stand up so people like Snake and Anton can tear them down. The same macro-economics that makes letting a store that fails be crushed by Walmart logical does not apply in the market of ideas.

In order to walk across a room, I must walk half way across it first. In order to get halfway, I must first cover half of that distance. In order to cover half that distance, I must first cover half of that, and so on and so on. As the distances can continue to be divided to infinity, I am prevented from ever even being able to even start my journey across the room because I can never get the smallest possible halfway (there is always one half of that). How is it then that I am in fact able to walk across the room?

I think you forgot to put the '-' sign in front of both of those numbers. The only President job she has the ability to do is be President of the NRA, because they are the only ones who might fall for beauty over actual substance.

She's already been the equivalent of President. The governorship is the Chief Executive office of a state. You really didn't pay attention in Civics class, did you?

She might not be Mensa or even above average, but her qualifications for President exceeded BHO's.

Take one step. This is the difference between theory and practice.

Your concept is flawed. Although you have to go halfway before you can go the whole way, you cannot divide the process.
