    Who is kicking Who's butt?
    Hello:

    Let's gather up the scorecards. You've been reading about the issues we discuss - and you've been judging. Tell us about that. Your vote will be public. You may select MORE than one.

    Sorry if I missed anybody. I only had 10 slots. If you can name others, please do, and tell us why.

    I consider it an honor to be included in such a poll.

    I frankly don't care one way or the other. I already know I'm right.

    So is Tom and Speechless, both of whom may actually be better debaters than I am.

    I don't care about the personalities or the ability to debate, only in the correctness of the position.

    Hello again, El:

    If you CAN'T convince anybody of the correctness of your position, it's probably not so correct. Ever consider that? What? Are you making excuses for losing BEFORE you lose? You must know something I don't.

    Besides, this isn't about personality. I can't help it, though, if people vote for me because I'm younger and better looking than you.

    You didn't say looks were supposed to come into play, I should have that vote. :)

    Yeah... about that... why is Obama losing so much support for his health care policy in the polls? Could that have something to do with an inability to convince anybody of the correctness of his position? And could that have something to do with him being wrong?

    And over 60% of AMericans agree with my position not yours... I'd say that that says a lot about the "correctness" of my position over yours, at least based on your statement above.

    And I though you said that the only poll that matters was the one where Obama won by 52% of the vote in November 2008. Have you changed your mind? Or do you just pick your positions based on convenience?

    Wow! In the top 10 according to Ex!

    That's got to be worth SOMETHING!

    That's a hard choice, Ex. Have to think about it for awhile.

    Not at all what I had pictured you like. Thanks for posting, it's always fun to see who's on the other side.

    I haven't seen the faces of too many people on this board. But Speech has me beat in the looks department fer sure. He beats excon too, for that matter.

    The wolverine doesn't need anyone's help defending him but... If the above statement is a serious one then he definitely knows something you don't.

    I picture a mother coming down on her son's. They think she's way too harsh.

    That's OK, excon. You were never in any danger of being stalked by me.

    I appreciate the links to info.

    If I could, I would have given everyone a trophy :) so as not to hurt anyone's self esteem.
    To Excon and NK, I do appreciate your difference of opinion and point of view.
