3. What evidence do you have that HC profited from the war?
Criticism is one thing, but this is outright libel.

Frankly, to be a candidate of change, one needs to know how to manage that system. It is not enough to sit in the oval office spouting pretty words.

6. apart from the OP, the only real candidate for change is Kucinich
and he's being completely shut out of the process.

that should tell us all something important.

9. Romney grabs 'change' theme in New Hampshire
Romney grabs 'change' theme in New Hampshire :rofl:

DERRY, N.H. (AP) - Republican Mitt Romney is casting himself as a change agent, trying to prevent a potentially crippling New Hampshire primary loss.

The former Massachusetts governor is trying to repel rival John McCain and answer Iowa caucus voters who showed they have tired of the status quo in Washington.

In a speech this morning, Romney noted that Iowans voted for Democrat Barack Obama over Hillary Rodham Clinton because they liked his message of changing Washington.

Romney now is highlighting how he has spent much of his life as a change agent :rofl: whether as a businessman, Olympics CEO or Massachusetts governor.

11. Obama is establishment
Edwards is "some change" and Kucinich is lots of change(though I don't agree with letting illegals naturalize).

Nice try, though.

13. Whoever our nominee is, it will be a change
Any of our candidates running will be a breath of fresh air after 8 years of insanity. The candidates may differ in degree, but there will be change. The GOP's ways have proven disastrous. I really don't think Americans are going to give their party another term.

16. Do you really think any of our candidates are going to put

20. We'll see
Remember 2006? Remember what was supposed to happen? Remember what was NOT going to happen?

Someone seems to have stolen my party while I wasn't looking. I'm not pleased to see it gone.

21. That's because of the roadblock repugs
Bush has that veto and Senate Repugs have the filibuster. It's hard to get things done under those circumstances.

12. What in the hell is the real agent of change going to do to change
All we hear is I GONNA CHANGE....I GONNA CHANGE....HELL IF HE WOULD JUST TELL THE COUNTRY WHAT HE IS GONNA CHANGE TO WE WOULD BE SO PLEASED.

Hell if he would show up to vote maybe we might get some idea of what he believes in, instead of speechyfying...and grinning.

17. Exit Poll Shows Change, Values As Deciding Factors
BOSTON -- New Hampshire Democrats went to the polls in seemingly record numbers Tuesday driven by an overwhelming desire for change.

An exit poll conducted for WCVB-TV and TheBostonChannel.com found that 56 percent of voters in the Democratic primary made their decision based on the candidate they best felt could bring about "needed change."

Eighteen percent voted for a candidate because he or she had the right experience and only 7 percent said the "best chance to win in November" was the major factor in their decision.
