Every time I decide I will support McCain, the man goes and does something awful. Like proposing yet another league of nations. Or declaring Algore is right and we need a Kyoto type treaty to punish us. The list goes on.

He shoos the conservatives back into the bushes every time they come forth to offer their support.

I appreciate what you are trying to do.

Perhaps the right thing IS to vote for McCain.
With Obama, McCain will be limited to cream
puffs and squirt guns for arsenal. At least
with Hillary the fight would be man to man.

That and the fact that most Americans loathe
her.

“I will let the election play out.”

What sense does it make to allow others to choose your president for you?

“There really is a lot more to life than two choices offered. “

Who said anything about life. I’m talking about the general election. And there is only two possibilities.

“There is the right choice. “

What’s the right choice? Allowing others to pick who your president is?

League of democratic nations. I see this as a counter weight to the UN.

“Or declaring Algore is right and we need a Kyoto type treaty to punish us.”

He rejects Kyoto on the grounds that it exempts China and India.

There is no one I would pick. You go ahead and choose. I am not going to play into the destruction of the US.

I will not vote for Barry or McCain. You go ahead a pick your poison. I am not interested.

“I am not going to play into the destruction of the US.”

Going by this logic, eligible voters who don’t vote are in no way responsible for anything that happens.

I am not going to argue with you. I am also not going to vote for McCain. Nice try, no cigar.

Right now I am more worried about a tornado.

Have a good evening.

I think you give Obama too much credit and have to high of an opinion of his capabilities to do the damage of which you speak. Now Hillary? She knows exactly how she’d go about it - she’s been preparing for it since college and has the know-how. Obama? He’s an empty suit slick talker who only knows he wants to ‘get paid’. He will find, even with a triumverate of the branches, that the wheels of government move slowly.

I give Obama NO credit. He is nothing - except a polished, programed puppet.

I'm amazed people don't understand that. He's nothing be a fancy new, painted figurehead nailed to the prow. He doesn't make the ship go.

It's his puppeteers who pull the strings. THEY are the infamous and ultimate corrupt Chicago Machine and the Black Liberationists.

THEY will do more damage than the sleeping sheeple can imagine - until it's too late.

You also overestimate resolve and effectiveness of the triumvirate in which he’ll have to operate. There are too many victim ‘minorities’ that have to be paid homage. Even establishing priorities and gaining consensus will become a major deal. And, when they are, the squeals and loud plaints of discrimination, preferential bias, neglect and greed will overshadow his plan.

It will be like Joe Sixpack winning the lottery and having to deal with all the relatives, scam artists, brokers, and every other loser in the book.

You drones can assume anything you like. Changes nothing. This piece was propaganda for a Democrat with an (R) around it’s neck.

It appears your ignorance is showing....

My God, a dime-a-dozen drone looks down her nose at me. Nothing left but to slit my wrists.

Yeah, I did it.

But great regrets afterward. Don’t think I could ever
vote Third Party again, for sure.

I always felt that I aided the jacka$$ clintoon getting
elected voting for Perot.

But the positive is that I can (and DO) use my lesson
to (hopefully) keep other folks from making the same
mistake.

3. By 2010, Honest, hard-working Americans getting agry enough to do something other than watch American Idol and retake their country in person rather than hoping the Republican tooth fairy will do it for them.

In my opinion, option 3 is scarier. For "them", not us.

I'll take door number three, Monty.

So....if I can’t find a legitimate reason to vote for McCain then you’re gonna use the old Fear Factor manipulation?

Sorry, there is no place on a ballot for me to vote against Obama, but there is a place for me to vote for McCain and I’m not doing that.

Can you explain to me why you are so damn eager to put him in power?

With all due respect, you're not owed an explanation. I'll vote however I choose.

"With all due respect, you're not owed an explanation."

Because you don't have an explanation. You're just pissed off that McCain is not the candidate you wanted. So instead of thinking about what is best for our country, you choose to make an empty, useless, negative political statement. It's a decision based on emotion rather than logic.

"I'll vote however I choose."

Which is your right as an American. Let's just hope you'll still have it after the Obamanation takes over the White House.

[I suppose Conservatives won't be happy till the GOP is down to 1974 levels, and we turn the Presidency over to another Jimmy Carter-who gave us the present day Iran!]

All you need for conservative support is a conservative nominee. If the Republicans think they can continue the way they are going, then yes, 1974 levels are quite possible on the way toward being the Whigs.

That is what being part of a large Party is about, changing the Party from within during the primaries and then defeating the other Party in the General election.

If you want to be a member of the Libertarian or Constitution Party, that is fine, but if one is a Republican, one ought to support the GOP in the General election, or join another Party.
