“But now, you can’t vote for McCain because you’re a conservative purist.”

Amnesty is my key issue. McCain is abhorrent.

A vote for Baldwin says “my meds ran out again.”

It’s not my fault that you think conservative ideas can’t stand on their own.

I’m not going to say much because with 100 replies in front of me I am sure that a lot of other FReepers have already made the points I would, but I just want to say I hope there are not too many Americans that are as dumb as you.

Sarah Palin is wonderful, and someone who may cause me to spit the pickle out making me so ***** sour and actually vote for McCain, but I swear I would have written in Ron Paul, Chuck Baldwin..., or Ebeneezer McFudamoe if it had not been for her.

I am puking sick to death of the Republican party, its lying thieving, sick corrupt leaders and its hypocrisy.

Could hardly agree more. Thing is, I truly believe that the Good Lord gave Sarah to us as a country saving gift and that it is on us to recognize it as such.

I have and have also 'spit the pickle out'.

Believe me, there are many more on this site and all across this great nation that think the same way.

Nobama! No way!

If you lose what little freedom you have left under Obama, you can in large part thank all the Republicans which have been working for unprecedented powers for the Presidency these last 8 years.

On that, I'll have to agree with the both of you.

Damn, I can't believe I just typed that.

Good move. You can't tell the difference between McCain and Obama so you vote for Batboy because, well, because he's different. And then you chide us for lack of political sophistication.

I feel for you, FRiend, but I just can't reach you.

“Waaah, don’t be mean, it hurts my feelings. “

Republicans "go negative" when they don't have any positive heritage to stand on. The only way guys like McCain can appear "good" is to completely demonize their opposition....., which with Obama is a relatively easy task, of course, but that is NOT THE POINT!

I want someone whose great appeal is NOT that he will keep the shackles of state slavery in place, but just put nice cushions on them for me. I want someone who will simply say with clarity, force, and good cheer "FREEDOM WORKS! Here is HOW we are going to make it work:" (at this point I have my own list, but I am already too verbose). Reagan did that. Jack Kemp was largely that way. Steve Forbes (goshawful communicator that he is!) runs that way. We have literally NOTHING to point to to convince people they should vote for us. Hell, they are having a hard time getting ME to vote for us, and I have been a party operative!

Vote Republican. We suck less.

And I am supposed to get EXCITED about that?????????

By the way. If you are looking at someone REALLY worth supporting on the Republican ticket, look at the Congressional candidate in NC named BJ Lawson. He is the real deal.

I agree 100%. The problem is that negative campaigning rarely makes me feel negative about the opponent. It usually makes me feel negative about the campaigner. NO ONE in this world is perfect. If all you have to run on are your opponent’s weaknesses, what does that say about you?

There is SO MUCH wrong with Obama, but when I hear McCain out there on the stump talking about little else than demonizing Obama, it doesn’t turn me against Obama. It turns me against McCain. What is your plan? What do you stand for? If I don’t know, I won’t vote for you, no matter how bad the opposition is.

Being “not Obama” is not enough to earn my vote. As Aaron Tippin puts it, “you’ve got to stand for something or you’ll fall for anything.”

My dream is that Jindal runs in 2012 and goes 90% positive with his campaign. I think he would be a complete steamroller.

“Hussein is worse.”

I agree. I’m glad we toppled him in Iraq.

Evil vs Evil lite. Yeah. Hoo rah. It is my fault and society will implode if I don't run breathlessly down to the voting booth and delay its implosion a little. Piddle.

Don't worry about it. I am going to vote McCain because I just could not stand the horrifying guilt of destroying our freedoms by casting a principled vote. We suck less, after all.

Not my message. Never has been.

The unfortunate task that has been laid at our feet this election cycle is to dispose of the Radical Marxist Kenyan - He who has no care for Life - He that has no care for Liberty - He that has no concern for his fellow man nor the Freedoms that he seeks - He that desires to rule the World.

BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA

Please, y'all take your hopeless messages that are full of good intention and go away to leave us to fight this Inherent Evil Wind that is blowing with the goal of the destruction of our Republic.

Good night Sirs, I will need my rest for tomorrow.
