" Meanwhile Paramount Geraldine Ferraro says there's enough for the president to go around. Hill helped out Democrats and all the racist you Corus was the democratic nominee for vice president back in nineteen fortunes and to date since. To see you need to see you and he didn't get us that it's a bad night. The Democrats it's a reflection on the Baghdad."

" I actually I think if you lay everything on Obama may come out with the conclusion that we've just heard. But it but it isn't it isn't official us not to designate you know and have the turnout of African American voters that you had and I gotta have more trouble for city and back in the in march of 2007. In its opening soon also asked but -- but you know it it just not -- be the turn at the same turn that. I think -- take a look there is there dynamic -- entry into each of these races including the congressional race have been from the north and a near you wait like what happened then -- as a father. Well we're probably -- is now campaigning for the Democrat out you know what I know that district extremely well it's it's a very -- district it's our north country it's there exactly it'd. I carry that district of my primary and against. Abrams -- To zero yeah I carry over and against I'm began carrying these -- is -- is then losing the -- But I ended up also can't be you know I was surprised yes and -- yes it was that Obama carry that there. And this is an area where where people are moderate Republicans. Moderate haven't been represented by gotten any Stafford in the state senate from Houston used in years he is he he was. In office and and he was someone who is with the boss for this guy is very of the Conservative Party line right so. You think I wouldn't harm it's something working for several years normally as a as he's known. Those unauthorized polling very well except Hoffman is not on any of the issue is then they contend that. And noticing a warrant let's -- original if you weren't he wouldn't be doing and performing so well he's performed so well because she pulled back. And so she was -- that may -- a divider well and what she's sorry she's coming in to worst. The Democrat and -- that's gonna make the difference you know what I do and I think what it is is she saying I'm a Republican water if there is no room for -- in the Republican Party. I've got to start looking elsewhere. Whether or not I joined the democratic point whether or not becoming independent. What are the voters appear want and the focus of their I was told by somebody who is major -- and his family isn't you know he's been up if -- He said they really need to think of what the people coming in wouldn't Sarah Palin and Dick -- coming from -- feed in here and tell us what to do."

" Given rule -- now you know it wasn't."

" It -- childish and now. And you didn't do that."

" Well you know what -- final MacNeil people said you want you Democrat it's because I believe in the principles and my point. If my party was falling part on principles. Probably would've done the same thing she I was said -- on how can endorse somebody who is so to do right. That number one -- on the issues that I care about -- my constituents. It's still collect it on its criticism lot of Democrats today that the leaders of his beer and soda the last thing now -- being -- eyes are gonna do unless I didn't think in many instances they look and -- with their constituents directors -- to represent. So that will become referendum not a car bomb and that'll be a referendum on the Republican Party as to where so he could the person I feel. -- thank you I'm coming along -- I'm more than anxious Spanish and your -- that you -- a trooper."

" The woman who made history the first does seem now to be on a presidential ticket -- slight -- slightly."

" I was then you know this is now this is now are generally good seeing embassies all right."

they're really big differences between what Caroline Kennedy is up against and Sarah Palin . First of all. By way of reference Caroline Kennedy went to Harvard Columbia law school has written a book on constitutional law. Academics was not exactly Sarah Palin's strong suit they're running further there but they're trying to get two different jobs. The Senate is much different from trying to be. Vice president or really to say to the country you're ready to be president. Sarah Palin never really crossed the threshold of convincing people that she had the capacity.
