  • OnPoint: Summer of Shadbolt,

    FletherB - yes.

    The person who promotes the advertisement (the promoter, if you will) always has to have their residential address on it, however.

    I would say, however that it's not that surprising having two different addresses - if I was signing up for something I'd probably put my PO Box. But if it required a residential address I'd include that too.

  • OnPoint: Summer of Shadbolt,

    (And you can use a PO box, if you're concerned about personal safety.)

    No.

    It has to be a physical address. Under the Electoral Act it was allowed to be that of a business, under the EFA it must be of the place where you usually reside (i.e. a residential address).

  • Speaker: Two Ticks,

    Hillary Clinton, long criticized as cold, shows a bit of feeling and is attacked as overly emotional.

    I thought it was genuine and nice to see, but still wasn't a big fan of it.

    If Obama gets the democratic nomination the country will go backward ... seriously?

  • Hard News: Never let the facts ...,

    I cannot speak for Graeme but I suspect when he says "back on point" he is talking about ACC and Affco...

    Precisely.

  • Hard News: Never let the facts ...,

    if its the 'neutron bomb' I've heard of, I suspect its just going to blow up in the face of the person who throws it

    I think you might be confusing nuclear weaponry with molotov cocktails :-)

    But on point - I tried a few comments like this on DPF, but it's about time these inconvenient facts got a little more airplay.

  • Speaker: Two Ticks,

    it seemed a bit confusing and it made my brain hurt

    Yeah, sorry 'bout that. It's a topic that could perhaps best be split into several posts. One on the process, another on Iowa, and it might all have been a little less headache-inducing :-)

  • the new "Dark Knight" trailer,

    You could just add a couple more new posts...

    :-)

  • Speaker: Two Ticks,

    Iowa has a population of 3 million. So that is 335,000 represents 11% of the population, including those under 18 who cannot vote.

    Something I didn't mention - it was nearly 3000 words as it was - Iowans who will be 18 at the election, but aren't yet, get to vote in the caucuses.

    We are one nation, one people

    so he's Don Brash :-)

  • Speaker: Two Ticks,

    And Obama predicted to win for the Dems. With a real fight for second between Edwards and Clinton.

    Really high turnout apparently too (still much lower than a primary, of course).

  • Speaker: Two Ticks,

    And a bunch of places now calling Iowa for Huckabee... bad news for Mitt Romney, good for John McCain.
