You ought to post a warning, first.

Some Freepers have heart trouble.

With the traitorous globalists’ death grip on the MSM

sometimes, they are right.

as long as one doesn’t criticize the regime in power.

I wish McCain took a Margaret Thatcher clone as his running mate. Condi Rice would be a second option. She's a two-fer and authentically black. It would be wonderful if the first female vice-president was a Republican. It would pull the rug right out under Obama.

I agree.

However, Condi seems to be about as much subject to the puppet master’s slightest string twitches as

McChurian does.

Maybe that’s the best we can hope for this close to . . . the global government.

I’m not convinced the Democrats hate the Clintons. They’re not very popular with us. That’s for sure. There was this love affair that developed for Obama. Hillary has always been an abrasive witch, but she nearly pulled it out anyway. Obama was loved a bit more than she was, but it was quite close.

The racial ceiling in major cities and then governorships weren’t led by females unless I’m forgetting some things. I think the presidency will work along the same lines.

I would probably vote for J.C. Watts without much trouble. I would probably vote for a Jean Kirkpatrick type without too much trouble. I think Jean was a bit more of a Democrat than I’d be comfortable with, but her international relations performance during her tenure was pretty good.

I don’t want to see either ceiling broken for the sake of breaking it. I’m sure you agree with that. When a capable individual comes along, they’ll be voted in. I won’t mind as long as they have a firm grip on Conservatism.

I don’t think Obama has a firm grip on much of anything.

You may be right, Obama may be doomed. If he loses now, it will be because it becomes apparent how weak a figure he is. If he can keep up the orations, avoid debates and avoid making mistakes, he may not lose. The Democrats are desperate to get the White House back.

Be careful that in your zeal to eliminate the enemy you do see, you completely overlook the enemy in your own camp. It would be a very real tragedy if Socialism came, not under the banner of liberalism and the Democratic Party, but under the guise of "conservatism" and under the banner of the Republican Party.

They are all evil to the core,

You are correct precisely because none of these 'isms' put individuals at the core- the "village, community", etc., but never the individual. Our Founders did it! They saw the flaw in mankind and his inability to live with rules that supercede society such that each individual's life would be livable to it's fullest.

A free people will trust their neighbor with freedom. Why the heck must we have our lives so regulated that we no longer trust our neighbor, ourselves, or even our children?

If God is in each person, then each person deserves some respect. I think that is ultimately what our Founders tried to incorporate. Doing otherwise defeats whatever plan He might have had in mind for the people living on this planet. When people are thought of as less-than-dirt you witness the tragedies so commonplace in our news. Nationally and locally. This lack of devoutness toward the individual will haunt us unendingly.

Of course, you are 100% correct in these analyses.

As you know, my dislike for the policies and eventual cabinet lineup of a President McCain still does not get Obama off the hook for me, because Obama would be every bit as bad, only bringing disaster to us perhaps on a faster pace.

We have such poor choices this year.

I am thinking outside of the box. For me this year, both O(b)sama and McAmnesty are both squarely IN the box.

You forgot “nanny statism” something that is alive and well on FR.

Odd post and odd definition. Nor one that I could agree with.

Only McCain can generate that outcome. In the end, it is his to lose. And lose it he will, IMHO, by a considerable margin.

As I said before, (and you LOL'd), this is akin to a man getting into a cage with a jaguar, because he is afraid of an approaching panther.

These are very good.

I would not vote for Obama in a million years.

I think a good similar graphic could be created for McCain and all the headaches, not the least being massive AMNESTY, that he, too would bring.

Good points. You are half the way there.

It is about winning the war we are in and McCain has been in the lead pushing for the surge which has been working.

Obama has the Marxist history along with his friends and large per cent of his supporters.

Since you say your aren’t voting for McCain or Obama that leaves the ACLU, amnesty,anti war third party folks.
Just another flavor of Obama’s views.

Roberto Barr is for amnesty and Carlos Baldwin is a truther and views echo Michael Moore.
