I have been saying this and the opener is exact. Thank God McCain lost.

To explain in my own words...I have little confidence that McCain would have been very effective with the house and senate majorities. His was not a conservative drive to begin with. Conservatives would have been driven further off the reservation.

On the otherhand, we would likely not have spent our way into oblivian THIS SOON. He would do more to make me proud on an international front. Obama, after this term is up, may be the usefull motivator that the 2nd worst president in American history was to conservatism.

We have to thank Jimmy Carter for Ronald Reagn. Lord I hope we have somebody to step in and Re-Reaganize this country in 2012. It may have been about time we got a wake up call from the slow bleed into socialism. I just hope we, the American people, can keep Obama at bay for his entire term. The American public tires easily and gets complacent. The worst thing that could happen for the future of this nation is that the economy take off and go gangbusters.

I am truly torn.

So do I. And I know EXACTLY who we need:

Stunning. Does your wish to achieve a political end mean (i) denying hundreds of thousands of people jobs and (ii) preventing them from reaching a decent living standard? In the event the economy does take off and go gangbusters will you admit that your analysis of the current socioeconomic stituation (and what to do about it) was wrong? You post a soup of contradictions -- glad that McCain lost, disappointed that the federal government has accelerated its growth, not seeing the Reagan heir for the 2012 race. A longer walk in the wilderness seems in order. Reagan, Bush, Clinton are history. McCain was never president. Let's look to the future and make a convincing argument for our 21st Century federal government to adopt the limited scope envisioned by the 18th Century founders of our republic. It is good that over a million gathered in DC on 12Sep09 and it matters little why it took so long for such a rally by the rightists in this country. Angry people vote. God bless them.
