how is bill doing: honest feedback

For those who think that I am wasting my vote. I am not. The reasons are many to vote for Richardson. His delegates are still on the ballot. If the "firsts" of the other campaigns were indira ghandi, or nelson mandela or even huey long it might be worth it, but they are not. I vote for whom I think is the most qualified. It ain't them that are left. I honestly can't tell you who I even hope gets into the general election and i am not deciding nothing until the convention is over. Who knows how a contested convention comes out and the way Obama and Clinton are behaving right now does not make me proud. End of story.
No one may be listening to this, but I am voting for Richardson on February 5th. I am sure the ballots are printed and I am sure that his name is on the ballot. So when people ask me to work for another candidate OR who I am voting for come the 5th. My answer is simple...Bill Richardson! After the primary we shall see?
If you give up now what is to happen at the convention? Don't step back and don't give in.
Wow I am so impressed! Way to go Bill! Nice debate...

I hope now that you just keep stressing your experience. At some point you will need to say, Hillary's experience was as a wife; That Obama is wet behind the ears; and Edwards has zero experience zip none. For now they will attack each other so you don't need to.

Like I have said all along. Be in every race all the way to the convention. Even if you run out of money or have to fire all your staff. Do not give up even if Feb. 5th is a disaster! It won't be but there are 20 more states after that. Save your money and conserve your time.

More Humor Shorter Answers...Way to go Bill!
Good luck in Iowa. No matter what - Febuary 5th matters more. So does the Convention in Denver. Think about it. What happens after the primaries are over and there either is no clear winner or there is only a nominal winner. Then what? Maybe a candidate that can represent the whole party...Maybe a Governor from New Mexico? Go Richardson!
Please save your money, there is life after South Carolina!
Sooner or later the campaigns of the Senators will fall apart especially if there is a viable alternative. If it comes down to Billary and Bill who will the 60% of her negatives pick. Please stay in the race all the way to the convention even if you run out of money. Better yet ... quit spending early!
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you

Happy Birthday dear Biiiilll

Happy Birthday to you!

Sorry I can't do it like Marilyn Monroe but I tried...
Here is a radical thought. Instead of pointing out his differences from the other Democrats, which is important to do...Why not act like he IS the democratic nominee and attack the Republican front runner for not articulating an energy policy? Or at least if he does it's not on his "12 pledges for the American People"..
He is still trying to crammmmmm tooooo much into answers but he came off as up beat and an alternative. I do think its OK to throw down on Hillary though in a postive way.. He could say that Hillary is "more of the same" or "washington as usual". Or he could say I think she would make a great Supreme Court Justice but as President she is more of the same...anyway JOB WELL DONE!
What an appearance! Now if he did that everytime the race would be over in December. Nice personable humorous without the cackle...But he made a crack about "some people say i can't debate". I never ever said that. He could be a great debater if he just practiced a little bit...short answers, tell a joke for gods sake thats all...but it counts for a lot..again way to go Bill.
I have decided to post all of the candidates energy policies at Community Energy Systems website www.censys.org on the blog Energy Tough Love. I originally planned on only posting President Richardson's position with the thought "why give anyone one else air time" BUT the other candidates positions are so bad when compared to the future President's that my thoughts changed to "lets show who is the BEST". If you don't believe me come take a look. I have already posted Hillary's and it is pitiful! Edwards is up next. I may even do the Republicans haha if they have one. Oh and as I say at each post CES is a 501c3 nonprofit. We can make no political endorsements and we aren't. We are posting policy proposals in our area of expertise and making comments.
way to go bill! now if he could just do all 5 shows at once. just kidding. is he ever coming to down state illinois?
He said in his PBS interview that he would announce his cabinet in advance. So why not play off of the "funny" played on him. Announce Hillary for the supreme court, announce edwards for HHS so he can work on his health care plan, announce obama for head of homeland security to clean up fema.

Also what about a sense of humor. no candidate has told a truely funny nonpolitical joke yet..does he know one?

for my believes about the future presidents energy policies see my blog at www.censys.org tomorrow.
Bill is back to cramming stuff into answers! Well half of it wasn't bad but the other half of the answers he crammed stuff in instead of focusing on one answer. At one point he listed 10 countries that diplomacy would help with. HELL why not just list all 180 or so members of the UN? Surely diplomacy would help with the Tamil rebels as well. He needs to sloooooow down and answer the questions simply and for god's sake leave some silence...silence is golden!
his last performance was really a marked improvement but he still needs to get better. LEAVE SPACE, don't take up the whole time by CRAMMING stuff in...its too unpresidential...that last little closing though was genius and just one second under the wire! keep up the good work!
This is going to be a long uphill battle. With the top 3 getting all the money, I hope Bill is not going to make McCain's mistake and spend all his money early. I worked in Paul Simon's campaign in Louisiana. He never made it to the Louisiana primary because he ran out of support. I WANT TO VOTE FOR BILL. Please get to Illinois' primary so I can.
the only 2 performances i have seen bill has been terrible. I love the man's policies and the man personally but he has got to straighten out his presentation. he needs practice at debate.
