Oooh, Fun Quiz for Fun

Match the presidential candidate with the following statements about Ted Kennedy's apparent stroke! Scroll down to see the answer!

A) "I was very sorry to hear that Senator Kennedy has taken ill, and like millions of Americans, [my spouse] and I anxiously await word of his condition. Senator Kennedy's role in the U.S. Senate cannot be overstated. He is a legendary lawmaker, and I have the highest respect for him. When we have worked together, he has been a skillful, fair and generous partner. I consider it a great privilege to call him my friend. [My spouse] and I are praying for our friend, his wife, Vicki, and the Kennedy family."

B) "I know a lot of you are interested in the situation with Senator Kennedy. I have been in contact with the family. Obviously they are in our thoughts and prayers – they I am sure will be releasing some sort of statement when they have a better assessment of what the situation is. You know, as I have said many times before, Ted Kennedy is a giant in American political history – he has done more for the health care of others than just about anybody in history and so we are going to be rooting for him and I insist on being optimistic about how it's going to turn out."

C) "My thoughts and prayers are with Ted Kennedy and his family today. We all wish him well and a quick recovery."

A) John McCain; B) Barack Obama; and C) Hillary Clinton. That's right. Hillary Clinton either doesn't want anybody to think she has something nice to say about a fringe liberal, or she is still having trouble approximating human emotion. McCain's was particularly nice, as you can see. He would have done a lot better for himself -- a kind of Clinton centrist triangulation -- if he hadn't backed off his once principled stands. Too bad. There is a real core of decency in there, underneath all the pandering rightist crap.

Hopefully Mary Jo is waiting for this murdering asshole at the pearly gates to take him down to hell where he belongs.

These statements only go to show why I am not voting for any of the 3 stooges running for office or is that an insult to Moe, Curly and Joe?

What I found most intriguing about the comments is how much of an outsider within her own party Hillary continues to be. Apparently her husband hasn't seen fit to introduce her to (and personalize her with) the power brokers of the Democratic Party in last 16 years.

I have friends that I would certainly be able to say more than two lines about after only a few months of knowing them.

There was ONE easy way to tell Hillary was the second one. Can anybody guess. Well, YOU KNOW, it's not that easy. YOU KNOW, it took me a while to figure it out myself. I've been following politics since, YOU KNOW, 2000 when Gore got screwed. I live in Texas and YOU KNOW, there aren't even that many people here who like Bush anymore either. So, can you guess how someone would, YOU KNOW, know Hillary's was second on the list?
