Dems Debate -- Slangin' Dirt in South Carolina

As Democratic presidential hopefuls prepare to debate in South Carolina, it looks like the people of Myrtle Beach have already begun slingin' the dirt around.

Check out these pics of a 20-foot tall sand sculpture built to look like a Clinton-Obama-Edwards version of Mount Rushmore. We're told this monstrosity took 750 TONS (no- we're not kidding) of sand to create ... and a ton of elbow grease.

Now only if they would work that hard in the White House!

31. All readers who don't remember what the Clinton era was like need to just Google "Bill Clinton impeachment" and read about it in Wikipedia. Part of the reason Hillary stayed with him was to get her chance at being President.
She really is a carpetbagger and there was great controversy when she ran for Senate in New York. She only did that as a stepping stone to the White House and she must be stopped. She looks mad with power, just like Adolf Hitler and so does Bill Clinton. His face is getting so red, maybe he'll have a stroke or a heart attack.

32. To #9........

YAWN!!!!! All that garbage is such old news and so Limbaughesque. The "trashing the WH" story was debunked years ago.
But I hear being a dittohead is much more fun than exercising one's brain.

34. Myrtle Beach had the republicans done in sand the week before for the republican debate. The Politicans might "suck" but the sand sculpture were pretty good!

36. Obama can't win because Latinos won't vote for a black.
And Latinos outnumber blacks.
That's why hillary took nevada

37. # 9 give it up dude, that's why your party lost. I support Obama because he has new ideas that
that no one of the other Democratic candidates have, he has charisma, intelligence, and a
sense of greater purpose than just running the country and obeying party rules. Obama's sense
of optimism and new ideas has not just transcended the party line but has gained interest in
independents and some Republicans such as my dad who is a staunch Republican. He is better
in my opinion than Clinton and Edwards because they run of old ideas that has that has costed
Democratic victories. He is better than Rudy, McCain, Huckabee, Paul, Romney, and Right said
Fred, because he will scrap the neocon agenda that has hurt the Image of America all over the
world. Barack Obama is not perfect, he needs to woo more Hispanics than he has, but I feel that he is ready for the presidency.

TO WHICH RON PAUL ASKED THE MOST INTELLIGENT QUESTION I'VE HEARD IN THE ELECTION DEBATES SO FAR..."HOW ARE WE GOING TO PAY FOR IT? THIS COUNTRY IS BANKRUPT." HEAR HEAR RON PAUL ALL THE WAY. GEORGE BUSH HAS BANKRUPTED THIS COUNTRY IN A WAR THAT WE ARE LOSING AND HAVEN'T ACCOMPLISHED ANYTHING. MCCAIN IS NOTHING MORE THAN A MILITARY "JUGHEAD" WHO HAS NO ABILITY TO RUN THIS COUNTRY. AS CROOKED AS HILLARY CLINTON IS, I WOULD VOTE FOR HER BEFORE MCCAIN AND SHE IS AS CROOKED AS THEY GET!

43. TO #9 - its so obvious you are a hipocrite REPUBLICAN, Who hates the Clintons and ready with the stone on your hand to throw it to any one you believe is bad.

I will just say that your GWB has been the WORST president in history, and republicans like Gulliani, Greenwish(chucky baby face), Chenny lebians relatives who get impregnated to give a child to her WOMAN HUSBAND. TOTAL CORRUPTION.!, ENRON, Rumsfeld lies, etc.etc.......

Posted at 9:45PM on Jan 21st 2008 by REPUBLICANS SUXS..........

44. to #18, If you want to vote for Barack Obama because you are also black, I respect that. However please keep in mind that Mr. Obama father and stepfather are MUSLIMS and his mother Anna is Atheist. This is not American.

America is based in Christian believes where the bible is our book and not the CORAN. Watch him when Americans sing the PLEDGE OF ALIGIANCE TO THE FLAG with the hand on their chest as respt to the flag Mr OBAMA looks indiferent and shows no respect.

I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR HIM, I WILL NEVER DO THAT TO AMERICA!. MR OBAMA HELPED AND JOINED A CHRISTIAN CHURCH SO THAT HE CAN BE PART OF AMERICA'S POLITICAL SYSTEM..

Posted at 9:56PM on Jan 21st 2008 by OBAMA'S roots are MUSLIM/ATHEIST.....

45. As an outsider looking in ( A Canadian watching the debates on CNN), I must say that any one of the three will be better than George the Joke Bush.

I hope that whoever is elected next for President of the US of A has a plan of action for Iraq and a deal in place to get all your beautiful men and women home safe and sound to their families where they belong.

Although I also hope that the next President is as comical to watch during speeches as Bush has been they past few years, since he hijacked the White House. I also hope that our next Prime Minister isn't such a bag licker and right up your Presidents ass the way our current one is.......
