Regarding your tagline: So how are Hillary and Obama doing? Convinced yet? :)
I've been convinced that we can't "sit this one out" or "write-in a conservative" or "vote third party" or any other feel good alternative for some time. Out troops, our Supreme Court & other federal appointments and our nation are too important to let a neophyte proto-Marxist race-baiting Chance Gardener anywhere near the Oval Office. Was anyone here really under the delusion that President Bush was a "Reagan Republican" prior to the 2000 election? But did you vote for him? Of course! Half a loaf and all that...
