I like and admire Sen. Miller, a man of intelligence, integrity and courage.

I despise Sen. McCain, a bad-manner, dishonest and untrustworthy character.

Dean is a fighter. He's as tough as nails. He didn't care about the attacks on him durring the debates, he always came out swining. He gave them hell, but the Democrats didn't want a Truman, they wanted another Dukakis. Smiley

Leach has served so long in Congress that he is admired by many Iowans, both liberal and conservative. Compared to the people who run against him, Leach is Conservative.

Peter Kormos of the Ontario Parliament, really cool guy, I like him a lot. And in America I like McCain.

I despise Stephen Harper, Tony Clement, and in America Bush and his Cabinet.

I agree. I admire Blair for supporting us in the Iraq War and standing with our President. But that's all, really. I want to see the conservatives in Britain win back the Prime Minister's office.

I wished Granholm were a Republican. I admire her and dislike her because she's not.
