RE: "Yes, we don't want it so bad we put a Republican disaster in the WH."
I'm sure most here would agree full heartily with that statement. But you have to admit. The whole process can make people a bit edgy at times. I re frame from saying a lot more then I do because I believe no matter what I say will not be taken into the proper spirit of reasoning. The issues are so complex in the reality of things. So much is so inter leaved. A candidate might have few few things that stink yet might help bring back sanity to this government, downsize it within a more affordable fashion as well as gaining favor with the Congress at least on some issues.
It sure is a tough call this time around. We may have to live with a Demorat majority Senate for a long time to come. Just that alone must be taken into consideration.

One thing just dawned on me today. If a Republican beats Obama and takes office in 2013, the Democrats in the Senate will probably block tax cut extensions, and block removing the military cuts in the trigger and blame the Republican POTUS for them both. And no changes to any anti-poverty programs or entitlements in that trigger.

This is the Boehner deal that Democrats are realizing they got the best of, that Boehner said he got 95% of what he wanted.
