Hockey mom
I am a hockey mom, have been for years. It's the hockey dads I am afraid are like pit bulls in my experience...take it way too seriously!

One thing about those hockey moms, tho....
they all vote. Don't think they will appreciate being dissed either. But time will tell.

Huh? "A hockey mom wears lipstick" is all

I like Tancreda or Hunter
Both are excellent choices. I was for Tancreda when he first was running and hoped he had won. I think Mr. Romney is okay but I like Tancreda & Hunter better.

Joe and Hunter and MBNA - oops!
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/25/us/politics/25biden.html?_r=1&pagewanted=2&oref=slogin

As I wrote to him, Tom Tancreda or Duncan Hunter.
I suggested a REAL Republican like one of those fine men for his running mate.
