Girlfriend seems to have forgotten "ROCKY LOST"
I'm sorry this is corny. Tactics of a 9year old IMHO  Looking a little goofy from here....... http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/04/....pa/index.html

Well Barry,
I hate to throw my knowledge of film around, lol... But I could easily argue that Rocky didn't lose. If you remember the movie, Rocky says, "All my life, everyone has always thought of me as a loser. I know I can't win this fight but if I can just stay on my feet and go the distance, then I won't be thought of as such a loser" (Yes, I paraphrased.) So technically, Rocky did not lose. He won because he achieved his goal. His goal was never to win, his goal was to go the distance.  B

UH HUh........ Yeah right.
Let me clarify i don't really care who wins but some how this corny approach (which must be attributed to her camp) smacks of immaturity.  Quote:

My statement was simply a reflection of the movie Rocky and the character motivation which was the driving force of the character. It is all too easy to forget that Rocky never had any real expectation to win. He only hoped to stay on his feet, thus doing what everyone said, could not be done. He went the distance with the champ. Remember, "ADRIANNE, WE DID IT..." -- He didn't win... So what did he do? He went the distance... I bring it up because Rocky is actually a very impt. character in the history of cinema. Especially because he illustrated that to be a winner, you don't necessarily need to "win"... He was a winner because he didn't get knocked the F*ck out.. lol..

Make no mistake. I didn't miss your point at all.
BTW the irony is..... "Sylvester Stallone has endorsed Sen. John McCain"

LOL...One thing I remember about Rocky Balboa was he always entered the ring jaw out and never blocked any punches. He took everything on the chin and some of it was self inflicted by his fighting style.
 Yeah...Clinton and Rocky do have a lot in common.
