The worst part is that no one here wants a Democratic administration for 4 years. No one wants a Democrat to take the White House.

But obviously it's time to weigh what is happening here. Is this Republican administration actually more dangerous than a Democratic one? I would like to believe from past experience that the Republican Congress would become "conservative" again if a Democrat got elected, gridlocking the govt from doing anything really really stupid and dangerous.

Does everyone hold their nose again, or will enabling these liberal Republicans only create more of a problem than staying home and allowing a Democrat to become President.

For me, I think the Assault Weapons Ban will be the deciding factor.

If the AWB came to his desk and he vetoed it, I might then change my mind and vote for him, but at this point, I'll be staying home in droves.

No money to the pubs, no volunteer work, no rides to the polls, no holding signs, no pestering my family and friends to vote, no badgering the guys at the gun club. Nothing.

GWB better pray that thing doesn't see the top of his desk, because he would sign it if it does. He was very clear about his intention to do so during the campaign, and I suspect he would keep his word. And yep, it would be the icing on the cake for me as well -- he wouldn't get my vote.

Staying home isn't enough if you believe grid-lock is better. I am voting for Pat Toomey for senate, and I'm considering voting for Dean for president.
