Vote for the same, you'll get more of the same, whether party or politician.

American needs a vast change, and neither Dem nor Pubbie Party offers it. Both have moved further and further to the left, to bigger government, to more government, to more government control.

The GOP is showing its historic true colors as the party of big-business (and screw the little guy).

Right on the money. I have never seen a congress go out of its way to screw over the little man like the current crop of congress critters. To hell with them all I say.

"The GOP is showing its historic true colors as the party of big-business (and screw the little guy)."

It's socialistic and leftist thinking to assume the 'little guy' and big business are at odds. More often then not, their interests are alinged, as prosperity for one means prosperity for the other. In a free enterprise system with rules against excessive monopolization, both capital and labor have to compete in an open marketplace, and that keeps things relatively level.

The GOP has been historically for keeping that level playing field.
It's not black-and-white issue and you can put one interest too far ahead of the other, but GOP has been for overall prosperity for both business and american workers.

"Vote for the same, you'll get more of the same, whether party or politician. "

I vote for freedom. THe GOP is the best representative for it.

"

To what?!? America is a very rich and prosperous country and the leader of the free world. ... ... I think people are forgetting that this is a time of war, war against terrorists. we are doing some difficult and challenging things and people dont give our leaders enough credit for it.

"Both have moved further and further to the left, to bigger government, to more government, to more government control. "

Government as %age of GDP is smaller now than in Reagan's time. Yes, its too big, but do a majority of Americans want to cut the big SS and Medicare programs that make up most of that? There are reasons why Govt spending doesnt shrink - spending is easier and more popular.

Bush proposed an excellent idea to deal with Social Security - personal accounts. The forces against this reform were too strong and it didnt go far... now you say change is not enough.

Friend, the problem is not in the Republican party, it's in the other political forces and winds out there!
Unions, Govt workers, Democrats, liberal special interests, etc. all have a vested interest in the opposite of what you want. ... how can you defeat them? With a 3rd party? that is laughable, and they would *love* for you to become an irrelevent 3rd party force.
