Too Handsome To Be President--Should Romney Have Died His Hair Gray?

By Mike Scruggs on February 1, 2008 at 10:32am

I watched the "historic" debate between Democratic presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama last night. The immigration issue was discussed in more detail than in previous debates, especially previous Republican debates.

Raza Race Hucksters Raise a Stink
