John McCain Could Lose Senate Primary To Tea Party Supporter

PHOENIX, AZ -- Rasmussen announced a new poll on Friday showing Senator John
McCain may be in trouble at home where a polarized electorate has him facing
constant criticism from both the left and the right.

The poll shows McCain tied with former Congressman and current talk radio
host J.D. Hayworth in a hypothetical Republican primary. Hayworth, who has
become an outspoken local hero among immigration-control activists, lost his
House seat to Rep. Harry Mitchell (D) in 2006. Since then, Hayworth has
promoted the Tea Parties on his radio show and has spoken at Tea Party
events, including the April 15 rally in Phoenix. Hayworth has expressed
interest in running but has been tight-lipped on whether or not he intends
to actually file as a candidate against McCain.

Rasmussen has McCain at 45% and Hayworth at 43% (4% margin of error).
Although McCain's loudest opponents from the right usually cite immigration
as the key issue, Minutmen founder Chris Simcox only reached 4% in the poll.
According to the poll, Hayworth is more popular overall among the GOP,
especially among the younger GOP sect. McCain fares better with females and
moderate Republicans.

Rodney Glassman, the only Democrat who has filed to run against McCain, was
not included in the poll. Glassman is a young Tucson city councilman who has
the support of the local and state Democratic Party structure and is
considered an up-and-comer in Arizona politics.

McCain has not faced a serious challenge to his senate seat since 1986.

A "Poarized electorate"?

Wow Earl, this must be somthing new. Imagine that?
This certainly something new in American politics, isn't it?


Let me enlighten you ....

It is the nature of American politics that the electorate is always
polorized with differnt factors vieing againt each other.

This type of competition is what makes the system work.

But you know that, dont you?

McCain is hardly a Republican for that matter.

Remember, he was the darling of the New York Times before Barry came

A larger number of them, English, French and German.

But the easiest to use, of course, is merely posting
the word + definition on google.

In making inquiries about your status I find that
the word "idiot" means "a person of subnormal intelligence".
Idiot is also synonymous with Planet Visitor in another
dictionary I maintain privately.

I rarely use a French dictionary. I found years
ago that I learned French better if I figured out
what a word meant and did not break up reading
with looking it up.

If I really need the meaning of a word I have encountered
I ask my wife. She is faster than flipping through
the pages. She does object to being exploited but usually
comes up with it.

ROTFLMAO. That from the guy who claims he is fluent in Hebrew, but
insists that "kippa" is a Hebrew word. Meaning a real Jew who reads
only Hebrew, would be considered illiterate by the Nazi fuckwit
Coughlan. Since that real Jew wouldn't have a clue what "kippa" is
supposed to mean. It would be no different than trying to read
hieroglyphics to that real Jew. In fact, hieroglyphics would probably
be easier for him to read, than words written in the Latin alphabet.

Hey, desi... guess what? That Hebrew dictionary I bought doesn't
have the word "kippa" in it. So how could it be "Hebrew"?

Whoosh... right over desi's pointy little head.

That's no surprise. You never use an English dictionary. Making
yourself understood by others has never been a big part of your
attempts to communicate.

Yeah... why bother with the trivial attempt to communicate with
others, in a way in which they might even understand you... right???

I imagine you "compunicate" [1] in asking her. Since the two
of you never seen to talk to each other except through your
computers.

room via an instant messaging service, instead of speaking to
them out loud, in person."

Our daughter, currently visiting us, has a house with 3000 sq feet.
which is enormous for a Parisian apartment. Our place is about 700
sq feet, and small compared to that. But it is above average for
a Parisian apartment which average about 500-550.

American houses tend to be oversized and have little used space.
With the creation of the family room, family live (TV etc) tends
to occur there and the living room goes largely unused. In
a Paris apartment nearly all the space is in use during the day.
The exception are those inhabited by widows and widowers. One
person in a two bedroom 3-pieces implies unused space. A
Dutch friend told us that in Holland unused space is taxed
with the social goal of maximum efficiency of space use.
This is not true in France. In fact Paris has a number
of unoccupied apartments, or little used. There is one
apartment in our building, the same size as ours
owned by a man in Lyon. It is not occupied more than
2 weeks a year.

In addition it is out of distance for communicating verbally. Walking
from one room, through the hall to the other requires a Z shaped pathway
which prevents conservation.

The term 3-pieces means three major rooms, plus a kitchen, bath room
and separate toilet area. Parisian 3-pieces sizes range from about
50-80 sq meters. Some are smaller meaning very small rooms.


The following http://www.pap.fr/immobilier/vente-immobilier.htm
list apartments for sale. One can specify the size

For 3-pieces in the 75006 (sixth) there is only one shown
however for the 14th there are 10 listed and the prices
are lower than here

here is one

Denfert-Rochereau. Immeuble ancien. Au 3e. 3 pièces 64 m?, traversant, au
calme et sur jardin : séjour 28 m?, 2 chambres, dressing, cuisine aménagée,
salle de bains, wc séparés. 2 caves. Local vélos. Chauffage individuel gaz.
Doubles fenêtres aluminium. Proche nombreux transports (RER B, bus, métro)
et commodités. 485.000 €.

Often the add is accompanied by photos.

The offer price of 485.000 euros is inflated since there is room for
negotiation and one tries to put the cost of the agency on the back of the
buyer. However in Le Particulier there are no agents.

So in this case the final sum realize by the seller be around 400,000
euros or $600,000. The buyer payes the notarial fees, around 8%. So
the money to come up with would be closer to 430,000 euros. The seller
has no fees except special inspections which could cost 500 euros total.

"Average for a Parisian apartment" being the operative term here.
I presume you _don't like_ to have visitors overnight.

I beg to differ. And I find that every visitor we have from Paris
expresses nothing but envy at the spacious home and garden we have
to enjoy.

The typical socialist way... when in doubt... impose a tax on it.
After all... that empty space can be utilized by the terminally
unemployed-unemployable who _deserve_ the same as the
employed-employable. And if they can't have it, then tax
it, and give the money to the unemployed-unemployable.

Not important. There is a lack of housing in the Parisian area
and unused space is a waste of a social resource. In Holland
one is taxed for the extra space one does not really use
in one's resident. This adds incentive to maximum use
of space which is in short supply.

Whatever are you raving about? Have you no idea of how many
of the rich maintain large and luxurious apartments that stay
empty for probably eight months a year? Your precious
former president lives in one offered to him free as a gift
for as long as he needs it. Are you willing to set up a cot in
your living room and share it with one of those 300 or so
people given tents by your socialist government to sleep in
the streets of Paris?

> In Holland

What it does is tax the doer to provide for the do-nothing.
Creating at the same moment a disincentive for the do-nothing
to do-anything to help themselves. While it may seem
right for you...since you already have yours and would not
share it for anything in the world and are only interested
in looking good to others... socialism is actually a disincentive for
our entire species to achieve progress.

Think of a dog race and what happens when the mechanical
rabbit stops moving.
