I think you can look at NJ as a model as to what will happen to the Union.

NJ voters re-elect criminals each cycle and they in turn, continue to destroy the State. NJ is beyond repair, it is a disaster. The people in NJ are the best complainers in the Nation concerning high taxes, cost of living, and a crumbling society.

Yet they pull the lever each and every election for the same crooks.

The 2008 Presidential election gives us no choice. It is pure garbage on each side of the fence.

How did this happen?

“How did this happen?”

I think three main reasons: Uninformed voters, winner-take-all primaries in the largest states, and the non-McCain vote was scattered among Romney, Huckabee, Thompson, and others who received significant numbers of votes in various states. That gave us a “winner” who’d gotten 35 - 38% of the vote through Super Tuesday.

But the uninformed voter I’m afraid has mostly done us in. Most probably just went with the war hero image Republican and didn’t look much further.

I bet most of his voters also favor keeping Guantanamo open, and favor torture when national security is at risk, and would disagree with McCain on many other issues if they had a clue where he stood.
