We can't go to a restaurant, basketball game, or library without running into their entourage, keepers, security and followers. It's been nuts. Thankfully, the caucus is tomorrow -- and we can all get back to normal. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" The Democrats in Iowa get to choose between an OREO(Who denies he is half white) FEMI-NAZI AMBULANCE CHASER HALF BREED Oh Boy |

She's been here every other day -- Came for the movie night and decided to stay, did she? Nope. There's no way any of the politicos would stay at anything other than a big-box chain motel, if for no other reason than security. Our little place is wide open, with no way (for example) to securely guard a floor. And, of course, we're so small (just 30 suites) and so occupied that we couldn't even handle a third-tier party's entourage, let alone the bloated gang that follows Clinton and Obama around. As opposed to the discreet and unnoticeable gangs following Romney or Huckabee, I'm sure. Way to keep on topic and follow the charter your buddy Larry posted just recently, particularly: "Chit-chat and hangar-flying articles unrelated to piloting should be posted in rec.aviation.miscellaneous." |

Huckabee, I'm sure. Way to keep on topic and follow the charter your buddy Larry posted just recently, particularly: "Chit-chat and hangar-flying articles unrelated to piloting should be posted in rec.aviation.miscellaneous." That's where Larry and I part ways. I think this is basically a hangar flying session, where conversations among pilots range widely across the board. I have no problem with that, although apparently you do? As for the Republicans, they don't bother to come to my town. We have had single-party rule here in Iowa City since before I was born, and I'm going to be 50 this year. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

How do the 250,000 caucus goers earn the right to be national judges
of candidates ?? Stupid, ain't it? I have no idea why all states don't hold their primaries on the same day. Although, if someone has to be first, I guess I'd rather see Iowa ahead of most states... -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

"socialist" when describing Hillary Clinton
How do the 250,000 caucus goers earn the right to be national judges of candidates ?? Stupid, ain't it? I have no idea why all states don't hold their primaries on the same day. I don't usually comment on politics, as it is a losing battle in a public forum, and will comment on the system, not the people, in this case. It bothers me to no end, that some states get to weed out the field, before I get a chance to vote on the entire bunch of candidates. The last time there were primary elections, the person I wanted to vote for was eliminated in the first few weeks of primaries. The states that had not voted never got to say who their first choice in the primaries should be. That was not what our forefathers intended. The system has been corrupted. What will it take to fix it? I have no idea, but I wish it would be fixed. I realize why it has not been; because the powers wish it to stay as it is. -- Jim in NC |

Only later is it about winning enough delegates for the nominating convention. |

"socialist" when describing Hillary Clinton
What will it take to fix it? I have no idea, but I wish it would be
fixed. I realize why it has not been; because the powers wish it to stay as it is. Two ideas: 1. Hold all state primaries on the same day, by law no more than six months in advance of the presidential election. (This never-ending electioneering must end...) 2. Make Election Day a national holiday, as is done in many democracies. (Before you think I've gone soft, though, in order to do this Congress must eliminate one other national holiday...) I think #1 would go a long ways toward leveling the playing field, and #2 would help address our absurdly low election day turnout. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
