Well, I’m glad I cancelled my subscription to Parents a few months ago. Another dumb, meaningless poll.

How can you trust Hillary and NOT trust Romney? Just play a track of each voice and see which one kids run away from.

I think I’d rather leave my kids with the 10-year old across the street.

Gotta go with McCain, especially if he brings his Momma along.

Kids like ice cream. Ice cream makers like John Edwards. Therefore, kids should like Silky Pony. Heh.

John Edwards, a guy that is obesessed with his own appearance(hair) is the scariest to me.

Talk about a “Girlie Man”……actually that might make him a good babysitter.

Hillary would be most likely to scare the crap out of my children, and that not even with my sentiments being imbued into their beliefs. They have a natural understanding of just how unctuous and bad she really is.

How could Hillary be a good babysitter by herself? By her own admission it takes a village. Sorry, I don’t have the space at my house.

Whenever someone serves up that old “it takes a village” bromide, I taste bile.

“urp”

Thanks a heap, Heartland Perspective.

The only one I’d even remotely trust to babysit my kids (and only if they were toddlers) would be Ron Paul.

He’s kinda like a clown, and kids like clowns. Er. . .maybe not.

Make mine a write-in for Huckabee.

I took this seriously and thought about my six kids. Who to leave in charge while I go see “Bella” with my dear husband?

I’m more familiar with “Don’t Know” than the other candidates.

Who broke the clock? I’ll ask. The kids say Don’t Know.

Who ate the rest of the ice cream? Again, it’s that darn Don’t Know.

“Don’t Know” is better than the alternatives.

That depends. Would I have to worry about B. Hussein Obama marrying my nine-year-old daughter?

Apparently Rudy would contract the job out and get someone who shouldn’t be babysitting.

Duncan Hunter would surround your kids in a double-fence.

Hillary will dispose of them after the photo op.

John Edwards is too busy watching himself.

Tom Tancredo would feed your kids lettuce. (sounds like he’s winning this one)

Fred Thompson hasn’t decided whether or not he’ll babysit yet.

Ron Paul won’t do it because it’s not in the constitution.

Joe Biden’s too busy putting his foot in his mouth.

Nobody cares about Chris Dodd.

I can’t think of anything funny to say about Mitt, Mike, or Obama.

Your children will beat up Bill Richardson, so that’s no good.

I wouldn’t have Hillary in my house if they paid me…or at least tried to convince people they tipped me. I have some nice stuff that I couldn’t afford to have replaced, and with her sticky fingers when it comes to home furnishings…

I think Hillary's look of consternation would snap the kids into line. But, then again, time with Hill could be construed as inhumane punishment. That would be far worse than waterboarding in my book.

Huckabee is the only one I would trust and he’s not on the list!
