Hah, over on the "Obama Up" thread a freeper climbed all over my gorgeous bod for what he claims was my "trying to stuff my ideals" down his throat. I had written just about the same opinion as you have expressed in your post here.

These hot-heads who are going to cede all ground to the Left all pull the same line when they go on the attack ....they parrot that anyone who's AGAINST a marxist for president is FOR McCain. As many express here, I'll be voting AGAINST Obama or Hillary for the sake of the Republic....and it won't be the first or last time in my life experiences that my lofty ideals have to be temporarily shelved.

Actually, I'd never be able to stuff my ideals down anyone's throat who rants like this personage. There's so much bile and rage in the throats of some of these people that there's no room to stuff ANYTHING down. Such bitterness and hate against "they", and "them" and "those" who conspired with "each other" to give us "him" for a candidate. Maybe the voters themselves had something to do with it, ya think?

I've been around here for a long time and I've never seen anything like the vituperation shown on FR's political threads during this primary season. Raw emotion is really coming to the fore....and I used to think it was the Dems and liberals who operate on emotion.

It's really getting quite scary with some of these folks. I fear a few of their heads are about ready to explode.

Leni, where is your Gulf Coast eden? I grew up in Pinellas Park FL. Not sure I can afford to retire there now.

You are so right. This place has gotten crazy. The hate for McCain has risen to huge temper-tantrum levels. Personally, i was strong for FRed, but with him out, well, McCain is the best of the probable viable candidates.

I am amazed how little Realpolitic experience there is here.

George Will had it right this morning. Too many Conservatives have become a bunch of cry babies who want to weep in their tents, just as Achilles did, with the same result.

Plus, he will be rather easy to beat in November.

In February, he is the Golden Boy. So was Dean, Weasley Clark, Muskie, etc.

By November, he will be an empty suit, former (?) Muslim, member of a White-hateing church, a drug dealer, owned by the Chicago machine, a good maker of speeches with empty promises, married to a Black Hillary.

We would be sooooo easy to run and advertise against.

Really? Wow! From what the other members of the class of '98 Freepers are telling me this is tame. I remember one of my first days on Freeper. Wandered into the Illegal Alien thread. This was before it became such a mainstream issue. I wondered if I had feel thru the looking glass. Never seen such bile and hate being thrown back and forth. Compared to some fights I have seen, this is calm. The fight over Dubai Ports and Harriet Meirs was worse. This too will pass. It only when Freepers are truly engaged that passions get this hot. Give it a couple of weeks and they will have burned themselves out. After all, Super Tuesday was only 6 days ago as amazing as that seems.
