For President: None of the Above!

It's probably no secret to anyone who reads my column regularly that I will not be voting for either Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton for president.

But I also will not be voting for John McCain.

I could tell you all the reasons and have expressed them already in a number of columns in recent months. But this time, I'll let someone with whom I seldom agree express them for me.

His name is Jonathan Chait, a senior editor at The New Republic. Here's what he wrote in that magazine:

"Even though it is in the public record, McCain's voting behavior during Bush's first term is almost never mentioned in the press anymore. Yet McCain's secret history is simply astonishing. It is no exaggeration to say that, during this crucial period, McCain was the most effective advocate of the Democratic agenda in Washington.

[tueffelhunden]

These reasons and more are why I will not vote in the general election, for what the Republicrat Party has once again tried to force down my throat.

Yeah yeah yeah, I want Obama, Hillary, the destruction of the United States (too late it's already done), yada yada yada. I can and will say when it's all over with that I had nothing whatsoever to do with whoever is in charge. I'm going to vote for a conservative for President. Whether the Ratlight party wants to give me one to vote for or not. This is America and I can do that.

Give me a candidate I can vote for. No more holding my nose.

Have fun

Cute. There are several more people that have been here longer, a lot longer than I that are not voting for that backstabbing POS with an “R” after his name.

[RachelFaith]

Hear Hear !!

I will not cast my precious vote for any of the three Democrat Socialists running.

You know, if the Libertarian Party wants to become a major political player in this country, here is their chance.

Right now, you have a LOT of marginalized, disaffected conservatives out there. While one could make the case that “Well, Bob Barr might splinter the right the way Perot did in ‘92”, and I can certainly envision that, this is still a golden opportunity for them.

If the Libertarians want to be known as something more substantial than a “pot should be legal” party and make some actual geniune noise, now is the time.

[Califreak]

I will probably be among legions of South Park voters. "Screw you guys! I'm stayin home!"

[johnthebaptistmoore]

Many of the same kind of things can also just as equally be said about the Constitution Party.

So I guess you were not happy when you voted in the democratic congress. Now you want to go for the hat trick. Grow up! The other candidates are far worse. Politics is holding your nose and voting for the least of the worst. There is more at stake this election than your narcissistic wet dreams.

We lost two excellent Republicans (conservative) from congress in Pennsylvania last election. It was immature and self-centered people like you that made it happen.

Since you are only a member since 2007 I find it ironic that you feel free to speak for other patriotic freepers.

[EternalVigilance]

Give me a candidate I can vote for.

Okay.

[Grunthor]

“So I guess you were not happy when you voted in the democratic congress.”

I didn’t vote for Democrats, stop assuming that your parties’ liberals are owed my vote.

[Grunthor]

I still say they ought to find a way to merge, a Barr/Baldwin ticket would be interesting.

[PA Engineer]

If you didn’t vote then you voted Democrat.

[Grunthor]

“Since you are only a member since 2007 I find it ironic that you feel free to speak for other patriotic freepers.”

You think that there are NOT long timers here that refuse to vote for that backstabbing POS?

Patriotic FReepers? All (I believe) FReepers love our nation. We do not all, nor should we all love the GOLP or Grand Old Liberal Party.

Last I checked, this was NOT Free RepublicAN.

Neither you nor your moderate/squish/quasi left wing party is OWED my vote.

STOP JUAN McCAIN!

Invoke Operation Chaos on the GOP convention floor!

[PA Engineer]

You have a very interesting posting history here. It seems your only goal in all of your posts is to make sure the current Republican candidates lose and the Democrats win. You cannot deny you posting history. I am convinced now that you are a DU troll.

[isthisnickcool]

Some people are just stuck on stupid. If you have two $hit sandwiches (Hillary/Obama) or a douchebag (McCain) vote for the douchebag or be ready to eat poo for 4 to 8 years.

[RoadKingSE]

This is the perfect representation of John McLame's campaign for President if he insists on hollering like Algore about CO2 and planting his dopey @$$ in front of windmill pictures. Down in flames again Johnny Boy.

[A CA Guy]

Yeah, that kind of posting is common among Democrats posting here or Libertarians who can be at times even further left.

[airborne]

Sorry, dear.

Only candidates pre-approved by the main stream media and the inside the Beltway power brokers are eligible!

(much sarcasm!)

[EternalVigilance]

Well, we’ll just have to go over their heads, then.

Shouldn’t be that tough, considering where their heads are currently located!

Last night I was looking for a Pens thread. Great game. Is there and active NHL thread to follow?

[airborne]

Yes! Here’s the link -

And as luck would have it, I am the keeper of the “Hockey Ping List”, if you’d like to be added.

[airborne]

LOL! And they’ll never even see us coming!

New tagline, picked up from Dr. Keyes on the Laurie Roth Show which just finished up.

Please add me. Thanks. Will be tuned into Versus for video and 105.9FM for audio tomorrow.

Consider yourself added!

[PA Engineer]

Thanks!

“You have a very interesting posting history here. It seems your only goal in all of your posts is to make sure the current Republican candidates lose and the Democrats win.”

You are either a good liar or a bad idiot. “All” my posts are not about Republican candidates. A good number are about Juanito McBackstabber. A few others are to be found on the Religious threads. Yet more can be found on Youtube and Music Dedication threads on the weekends. “All” my posts? I’m going to go with “good liar.”

“You cannot deny you(r) posting history.”

I wouldn’t think of it

“I am convinced now that you are a DU troll.”

And I am convinced that you are a lazy person, leaping to this idiotic conclusion in order to end debate/conversation.

[SoConPubbie]

Why don’t you check my sign-up date.

I agree with him completely.

[Grunthor]

“So you are a leftarded troll and admit to voting in the Democratic congress.”

No, liar.

“What is your screen name at DU?”

What is yours at RINOS R us?

[Grunthor]

Read this whole thread, this girl is a drama queen big time.

[PA Engineer]

Are you calling me out punk?

[Grunthor]

“Are you calling me out punk?”

Why, is your name “out punk?”

You are also a newbie. What is your point?

[PA Engineer]

Well are you punk?

[Grunthor]

“Well are you punk?”

No, I’m Grunthor.

[SoConPubbie]

This is what the McCainiac posters are reduced to because their candidate is such a loser.

Calling other conservatives DU Trolls, obsessive, Democratic plants, et al.

But be of good cheer, this is usually the signal that they have no ammunition left and are simply trying to shut down discussion by labeling you in a dishonest manner.

[Grunthor]

I’ve said before, if I had to defend that POS, I’d be in a bad mood all the time as well.

[PA Engineer]

Funny coming from you. You entire posting history since your sign up in 2007 is anti-McCain. Conservatives are not for McCain, they are against Obama. Your entire posting history after scrolling a couple pages of your posts is to convince Repulicans not to vote this election. Now why would a newbie like yourself want Obama to win the election?

[SoConPubbie]

So you are a leftarded troll and admit to voting in the Democratic congress. What is your screen name at DU?

Reagan was a Democrat for years, would you have accused him of being a DU plant?

People change as they grow older, most of the time for the better.

[1035rep]

I agree with him completely.

Wow, what a surprise.  <sarcasm> 

[PA Engineer]

Where are you from in Washington?

[Grunthor]

Who is pushing for the election of Liberals?

[Grunthor]

“Where are you from in Washington?”

Little town called McCleary.

[1035rep]

Reagan would never try to convince people not to vote, or to let the other party win to teach the GOP a lesson.

[jellybean]

Will you also call me a troll since I won't vote for McCain? How about Jim Rob? Good luck with that, n00b.
