My sister and husband, who has never missed voting republican, told me she was sitting this one out. What is really bad, for the republicans, is that I haven’t mention politics to her in months. But then her grand son just came back from Iraq and she said she never wanted him to go back.

A lot of people who say they are sitting out this election will end up voting for someone in November. It might be a 3rd Party candidate but they’ll vote for someone.

Note that I said “a lot of people”, not everyone.

“But then her grand son just came back from Iraq and she said she never wanted him to go back.”

Thank you. THAT’S what I’ve been trying to tell people on this forum who think McCain’s going to blow out Hillobama because he’s a war hero and wants to stay in Iraq. Some people need to get out of the echo chamber and find out what the rest of America thinks.

Women, who make up the majority of the electorate, are tired of the war, and see the Republicans as a greater threat to their personal peace and stability than the terrorists. Outside of the far right, most people want out of the war, yesterday, and they will vote for the devil himself if he says he’ll withdraw the troops. I have conservative, homeschool mom friends who plan to crossover to the Dems for the first time in their lives on that issue alone.

Forget the base hating his guts, McCain will never be President, BECAUSE of the title of this article.
