If our nominee is left stranded and people stay home, she may well have a veto-proof Senate. She will do things you cannot imagine.

No, it is not McCain-Feingold that allows her to shut down talk radio -— it is the fairness doctrine. She won’t even need congress to do it. Hillary will force the resignation of one of the FCC commissioners (or have him whacked), put in her own stooge, and institute the policy. The naivete of FReepers who do not know the danger this woman poses astounds me.

Yes....you and me both. I read their posts and wonder why they are here.

Mccain-FeinGold can be used to shut down talk radio or blogs and web sites like Freerepublic too.

Bradley Smith says that the freewheeling days of political blogging and online punditry are over. In just a few months, he warns, bloggers and news organizations could risk the wrath of the federal government if they improperly link to a campaign's Web site. Even forwarding a political candidate's press release to a mailing list, depending on the details, could be punished by fines.

Smith should know. He's one of the six commissioners at the Federal Election Commission, which is beginning the perilous process of extending a controversial 2002 campaign finance law to the Internet

You are right that we can't stay home because we have to vote for the Senate and the House on election day .so as much as I hate Huckabee and McCain I'll try to stop my attacks on those who call themselves Republicans. I didn't think of that or that far ahead.

God bless you. I have watched the Clintons from the very beginning, circa 1980. Most people have no idea who they really are. Tony Soprano is a sissy.
