To: Who is John Galt?

It’s the faith I still have in the American people.

I imagine what it’s like to be in a high profile RAT internet forum...being a Hillary Clinton supporter and watching this FRAUD Barack Obama end up the Nominee of their party.

There has to be much fighting...just like we have fought in here since The Bugzapper Thread back in April, 2007.

They must have members who LOVE our country and aren’t like the ‘wacky LEFT’....just like we have Conservatives who refuse to align themselves with the ‘wacky RIGHT’.

Along comes a candidate whose resume is chock full of sponsoring legislation which pissed off many in ‘HIS’ party...but who exudes strong love for our country.

I refuse to allow my cynicism....crafted over 62 years...to think there aren’t MILLIONS of registered democrats that would pull the lever for John McCain...rather that allow the Obamas to lead this country into Marxist Socialism and possibly civil war.

To me the choice is no different than asking somebody if they would rather have a vanilla ice-cream cone with chocolate sprinkles...or be thrown into a vat of boiling oil.

Just so you know (I assume you're a young person), the "wacky LEFT" is a lot more numerous & a lot more violent than the "wacky RIGHT." I might agree with you, apart from that apparently idiotic assumption.

Bottom line: so what?

Along comes a candidate whose resume is chock full of sponsoring legislation which pissed off many in ‘HIS’ party...but who exudes strong love for our country.

Who's that? Barry Goldwater (may he rest in peace!)? Paul Tsongas (may he rest in peace!)? By the way: did either one of them win the presidency?

Hmmm?

Sorry, compadre, but you just 'jumped the shark.' Registered Dems? Maybe a few million, nation-wide. It will never be meaningful. REAL DEMS? Forget it! I KNOW Dems who will check off on the Republican side of issues, 9 out of 10 times, during an 'issues poll,' and STILL vote Democrat, even when you PROVE to them that the Democrat party is working AGAINST their priority interests. One of them is a petroleum engineer - and voting for the Dems means the literal destruction of his livelihood. Does he do it, every GD election? You betcha!

McCaine can play 'middle-of-the-road' all he wants, and all it will get him is a one-night-stand with the liberal media - and his "Edward's love child" will be a forgotten foot note in the history books.

Rather than allow the Obamas to lead this country into Marxist Socialism and possibly civil war.

We were not granted the last 'civil war' (Heaven help us!) by the extremists. It was a gift of the compromisers. If the basic, fundamental issues had been addressed early on, the war would never have occurred.

To me the choice is no different than asking somebody if they would rather have a vanilla ice-cream cone with chocolate sprinkles...or be thrown into a vat of boiling oil.

Thank you for your opinion. I do not view a completely compromised, McCaine-Lieberman (darkness & light - but it's COMPLETE GRAY SCALE - please do not assume anything from the wording) presidential ticket as a 'dessert item.' You're welcome to your opinion - it's (at least currently) a 'free republic.'

(Sorry if that came off as way too combative - not my intention, you’re not a bad person. But I WILL NOT vote for a Democrat, on any ticket. I know the history - I know the reasons why. If there’s a Democrat on a supposedly Republican presidential ticket - well, guess what, sports? That makes it a Democrat ticket...)
