Being a New Zealander I've been watching Fox News. While we have CNN and BBC they're just so boring to listen to so I prefer Fox News. Our national broadcaster has their correspondent in the United States while their competitor is having ABC and CBS news items on the election. Thus my news gathering is limited and am too busy to read newspapers.

But I like Clinton, I think she would be good for the international community and I just see Obama as representing one of those figures in Frank Capra films of the 1940s such as "Meet John Doe", who rally the crowds but ultimately ends up just like any of them. John Edwards is a fool.

On the republican side, I don't get Huckabee, in NZ he wouldn't stand a chance, like any other religious person. We don't like religion in politics. I couldn't even tell you what this guy stands for it isn't very clear. Romney could win the republican party nominee, but I don't like him. Hes taken the ultimate u-turn and I don't think he is electable. Guliani was so arrogant when he first announced hes going for the Presidency, his failure to even get third placements in the early primaries is really pathetic and I love John McCain.

Which, is funny because McCain is in favour of the war but I think hes principled far beyond any other republican candidate.

So we have a Clinton V McCain President race, I want Clinton to win, I think she is winnable even though she has so many negatives against her.

I don't get why Obama continues to be treated so well in the media, he is getting a free ride, I see him continuing to get a free ride, and like I said earlier, hes like those 40s era films where they feared facism, where a normal person rallys the people but then has facist tendencies, hes a good talker, but is he trustworthy? I just don't think so.

Watching Fox News is funny because they say their fair and balanced, but everything from Fox and Friends to the Big Story, Bill O'reily, Hannity and Colmes has negative things about Clinton and Hannity may pretend to like McCain but his real venom does show. They also tend to be way too simplistic in some of their analogy but its watchable, I can't stand the thing yet I watch it constantly.

I look to McCain picking up the major primary votes Feb 5th and the same for Clinton. But to be honest I don't totally get America's primary contests.

In the democratic primaries how are they distributed, and are some primaries both democratic and republic distributed by certain areas in america's state. I suppose I could look it up but whatever.

Karrde is illegal immigration even a republican issue anymore? It seems to be republican issues are the economy and Hilary Clinton. It won't even be a national issue I don't think.
