I am not unrealistic in my expectations. I know that a Libertarian will not win in 04 almost surely. But, the point is if I want to stick to my guns, I cannot wait for fair weather. You have to make the case to the Republicans that conservatives will not be taken for granted. If every four years is not a good time for doing it, then good time will never roll along.

The major point is now is not a good time to take that particular stand. Even if it’s justified, it's not worth it. I live in NY. I know of people who lived through that terrorist act and a few who did not make it. I saw the Twin Towers or I should say lack there of, shortly after the attack. The memory is etched in my mind forever.

We are at war with ruthless killers, who will stop at nothing to destroy us. I don't want my children to suffer because I wanted to make a point from principles that will serve no purpose for the present time. Especially, since it will mean putting a man in office that will jeopardize our security. Put a man in office that will kowtow to other world leaders. We have to work with whom we have in order to succeed to win this war. If we fail at this, we will not have to worry about medicare or anything else for that matter. There will be much worse horrible issues to deal with.
