“Also, I will not vote for a Republican, merely to stop a Democrat from winning. The reason for that is, that such a practice leads to candidates the feel no compunction to buck the principles that the electorate wanted him to observe when he ran for office. After all, why would a candidate hold himself to such stringent standards if he won’t lose his votes anyway”

There is the heart of the matter. Which would be worse- President Hillary or President McCain. It is not an easy question- there is a good argument to be made that we could end up with *worse* Supreme Court nominees under McCain; it might be far easier to rally opposition and prevent cloture against a nominee of Hillary’s. She may be a fervent socialist but she also may be smart enough to leave the Guns issue alone. I could see how a president McCain could fracture and damage the Republican party far more than President Hillary (I can’t bring myself to type that last name again). Grim choices ahead :-(

Though this race is depressing at best, one thing I know beyond a doubt...I’ll NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER (CONTINUE TO INFINITY) vote for Hillary. Ever.
