Perhaps we survied those 8 years. However, those 8 years were years where we were not engaged in the war that was being waged against us at the time. Now we are engaged in that war, and I do not wish to see defeat snatched from the jaws of victory by turning over the CinC to some dim moron who believes ending the fight before victory has been assured is the right course of action. Under the current world conditions we cannot survive even four years of such a Presidency.
As for the impending defeat of John McCain, I see that as counting chickens before they hatch. I'm prediction that the dim nominee will self-destruct and the people will not endorse them by the time of the general election.
Given the above, I do not understand your position, or that of people with like mind. There is just way too much at stake in this election to give it over to the dims. But, you'll do what ever you choose.
Agree with your post. We are at war and the cost may be too dear to chance 4 yrs of Hillary or Obama. Also, we are paying today for the Clinton years...do we want more of the same?
