- Guest_Gato : speaking of going....

- Guest_Gato : (from the cans, not the box)
- Guest_Gato : PBR armor to all participants.
- Guest_Gato : Let's give them all tasers and see who wins. (Last two standing are President and VP.) LOL
- easterner : I was, of course, kidding about the "good one"!
- easterner : can't we agree that the election is probably going to be a close one and leave it at that??
- easterner : such witty repartee in the chat box....
- easterner : ooh, good one!
- Guest_2Q4U : you obviously don't know very many people than.
- Guest_123x : strange, everyone I know wants Obama for president, not old man McBush and Palin the secessionist
- Guest_2Q4U : yes, Idaho is a republican state for the most part. besides who wants a liberal obama for president with a relic for a sidekick? not anyone I know.
- Guest_2Q4U : negative ad campaigns have been around since the advent of the politician. It's nothing new
- Guest_123x : I swear Idahoans would even vote for Bill Clinton in Idaho if he ran with an "R" next to his name
- Guest_123x : and what is most disappointing is that most Idahoans are so redneck stupid that they will still vote for Risch despite his actions and rhetoric
- Guest_123x : it's just more trash talk from a negative campaign (and I'm not saying the Dems do any better), but these Republicans have a "win at any cost" mentality no matter if they lose their supposed high morals in the process of winning
- Guest_123x : No, they have to crap on LaRocco's campaign (desperate) and phrase their response to make it sound like LaRocco actually engineered the ad and is tied to the ad.
- Guest_123x : Risch's team cannot just say "we think these ads are wrong in content and the group is one of the most liberal groups in America so take that into account when you hear it."
- Guest_123x : "Larry LaRocco's desperate campaign has gotten help from one of America's most liberal groups to try to buy this race. Idahoans won't appreciate that and they'll see right through it."
- Guest_123x : But the ad is run by an out of state organization not connected with other senate candidates, not endorsed by Risch's opponents, so how does the Risch campaign respond?
- Guest_123x : Some out of state group is running an ad against Jim Risch, highlighting how he raised the sales tax on us, okay nothing false there despite Risch probably wishing they wouldn't bring it up
- Guest_123x : I am so tired of these negative political campaigns, and especially the trash talk they do.
- Guest_439.2 : I wonder if we can implant a GPS microchip in him?
- Guest_9813 : I saw him having coffee with Jimmy Hoffa at the Dixie Diner last Tuesday.
- Guest_Bird Dawg : Last week he was in the aviary at Tautphaus!
- Guest_Gato : I think I saw him riding around with Elvis around Shelley during Spud Days...?
- Guest_439.2 : Instead of Where's Waldo, shall we play "Where's Eagle?"
- Guest_Belkin : wise guy, eh? why, I oughta..... you get outta here!
- Guest_2486q : chicckaachaaaaa. ...
- Guest_Speralta1996 : LOSERS
- Guest_Speralta1996 : Any `1 here?
- Guest_4085 : I need 15 reasons why will u guys help me?
- Guest_4085 : Hey, Guys i need help look i have a assignment and it says why arent cell phones allowed in school
- Guest_3477 : i think if we just remember that everyone has their own opinions and leave it at that we'll be ok. Like cheek said, there's no point in making a negative comment about a negative comment. That's how the last argument broke out.
- Guest_Cheeky : no, dogs and kids.... got a lil outta hand.
- easterner : wait, what negative comment? in the chatbox???
- Guest_Cheeky : we were doing so well until the name calling broke out.....good job guys. I never understood the point in making a negative comment about a negative comment.
- Guest_Cheeky : love is in the air.....
- Guest_2486 : must've missed ya. Oh well, best of luck to you. Stop back by with any questions, there's usually someone here that can help answer them. Take care.
- Guest_2486 : where are you moving from if you don't mind me asking?
- Guest_2486 : but many people outside of town have horses and there are a number of places to ride in the area
- Guest_2486 : what do you mean by horse friendly? nobody rides their horses in town if thats what you mean.
- Guest_2418 : thinking of moving to Idaho Falls, is this a horse friendly town
- Guest_2486 : What a great day out today! Love this brisk air. Is everyone ready for winter?
- Guest_9813 : the only way obama plans to pay for all these fixes is with higher taxes and more government. So we'll just have to agree to disagree. I think obama was very condesending as well. Guess we'll find out in another few weeks. I just hope that whoever wins really keep their promises. Most of them never do after the dust settles.
- Guest 217 : I thought McCain probably won the first part, but Obama was able to provide better answers overall.
- Guest 217 : Guess I don't agree. If anything, I think it was a toss-up. I thought McCain played more dirty than Obama, but Obama acted kind of condescending.
- Guest_9813 : mccain clearly won. he opened up a can on obama, obama is all about higer taxes and bigger government. i say no thanks,
- Guest 217 : what about that debate?
- Guest_Gato : Maybe he has rabies?
- Barky's Brother : say what?
- Barky_VonSchnauzer : 5 Ni Pia uyen se mara i vuna peas men talle
- Barky_VonSchnauzer : grrrrrrr.......

What do you think of John McCain's choosing Sarah Palinfor a running mate?
- Brilliant! This could be a BIG impact!
- I don't think his choice of running mate will make much of a difference
- I like McCain, but I'm less likely to vote for him now because I don't like his choice
- He must be desperate for media coverage
- I haven't decided yet, I don't know enough about her
- It doesn't matter who he chooses, I'm for Obama ALL THE WAY!
