I don’t think that many stayed home. I was less than thrilled about it but I did get out, choke back my bile, and pull the lever for McCain. He was pathetic and he was running against the messiah.
I did the same, and all I got for it was a lousy sticker that read "I voted". It's still stuck high up on a support beam in my basement, where I angrily slapped it on that election night when I peeled it off my coat. I can understand the dislike for McCain among many people, but if they 'stayed home', look where it got us. Our nation will reap what it has sown in electing this president/CONgress, and we may find ourselves feeling it for generations. Look at what FDR did. We are STILL mired down in his socialist programs, without end.
Our future elected leaders MUST repeal and reverse what our government is doing during this time period as soon as they get into office. It should be item number one on their agenda. I don't care if they have to shut down and defund the government to do it, because it MUST be done. If they don't turn it all back, they should be voted out of office just as quickly.
I was less than thrilled about it but I did get out, choke back my bile, and pull the lever for McCain. Don't forget, we're all political junkies here. There are plenty of folks out there who don't care as much as we do. McCain was just the sort of candidate to inspire them to go have a root canal instead. |
