What we "got" at this point prevents doing "the best" or anything close to it for this nation, our freedom, and our troops; indeed, it guarantees the worst for all concerned no matter who gets the most votes. I'm well aware of the facts of political life as only a Californian can be who regrets participating and endorsing the election of Arnold Schwarzenegger. Yes, I'd say that the facts of political life are something I am uniquely qualified to assess.
I agree with you that politics is pretty much always about selecting the lesser of two evils, and this election will be no different. Where we disagree is WHICH is the lesser of two evils. As I review the political realities before me, I am willing to gamble that Democrats pose the lesser of long-term evil. It's a calculated risk that I think you are afraid to even acknowledge, as I was once was myself.
When you say I've got three choices at this point, you're mistaken. I have FOUR choices. That the fourth one goes against your grain as much as it did mine Before Schwarzenegger, is yet another fact of poltical life.
yeah I got on board with Arnold too, I contributed and did my part. He did try. But the people here didn’t support him. Then he caved totally and betrayed those who put him there.
I do not think that story is over though, my hope is that people will consider someone like McClintock in the future because they have voted for a republican (rino yeah) but may again consider a republican. The political pendulum is always swinging. Though it hangs heavily left in California.
The democrats are so far left and traitorous though, not even a rino comes close for me. Mainly this is apparant in war on terror issues. They stabbed the troops in the back over and over again. I cannot let them prevail if I can help it. Rinos or no rinos.
They would love for conservatives to stay home.
If they wish something, then I am against it.
The fourth choice I cannot allow myself.
For the blood of patriots was spilled for it.
