“Can anyone tell me that the election in 2008 was anything other than voting for one of two people running from the same party?”

I was with ya until that line. Obama is not a Democrat. No. And John Mccain is a lot of things, but he is not an avowed Marxist.

Do you honestly think the Democrats don’t think Obama is one of them, or that the Democrats didn’t vote for him lock stock and barrel, knowing exactly what he promised to do?

Certainly he’s a Democrat. I can’t help it what Democrats have become today, but that’s the long and the short of it.

As for McCain, if you play footsies with guys like Soros and company, you’re certainly not on our side of the isle. Closing Gitmo, adopting Kyoto, backing Obama’s cuts in military procurements, proposing legislation with Kerry, Kennedy, and Feingold?

He’s certainly not a nationalist. He’s certainly not a Conservative. He’s certainly not a Republican in any real sense of the word.

It’s okay with me if you disagree, but I think there’s too much of an argument to be made regarding McCain to state he’s more of an (R) than a (D).

To a lessor or greater degree, he is a Democrat more than a Republican. And that leads me to say we were dealing with a one party system last fall.

I appreciate the opposing viewpoint.
