There really isn't a whole lot of difference between the Dems and GOP at this point.

I think the biggest differences are with social issues and that will get people to the polls. I doubt Hillary will be elected president.

I agree, they both use the Treasury to buy elections. The problem is now the Treasury is full of debt rather than assets.

Agreed. I past tired of holding my nose and voting for the lesser-of-two-evils.

If Hitlery is the Rat nominee, I'll vote against her as NOTHING could be worse for our Nation than the Clintons getting back into the White House. Otherwise, I'll stay home unless the Republicans run a real conservative.

That said, I'm starting to like Mike Pence R-IN, and would happily vote for him; or someone like him - a REAL conservative.

While I understand the sentiment behind that statement, I have to respectfully disagree. The GOP has certainly moved to the left and look a lot like the Dems. But the Dems have also moved to the left and are more and more becoming socialists. So there is a difference. One is far left. The other is only left.

(BTW, This is my 1,000th post!!! Yeah, me!)

You're almost correct. But the Rat party has moved so far to the left in recent years. But the GOP and the Rat Party of 10 years ago, I would say, yes there isn't much difference.

In fact, the GOP is mostly run today by what we used to call "Scoop Jackson Democrats." Hawkish in international affairs, but liberal fiscally.
