Fair point. I’ve got pretty much the same problems with them too. However: We have to be prepared for the idea that the choice will end up being between “not good enough”... and “totally f_ing unacceptable”.
We can and we should press on the primaries to get our best possible candidate. But after that— I’m going to vote ~against~ Obama nomatter who is running. I get ~really~ disgusted with those that get all snotty and refuse to vote if their “perfect” candidate doesn’t make it. That how we lose.
McCain had a lot wrong with him, but I sure as hell wish he were there instead of B. Hussein Obama.
Along with many of my fellow Airmen, I held my nose and voted for McCain due to Sarah Palin. I had to use a provisional ballot because most Armed Forces Michigan voters did not receive their absentee ballots.
What party has a history of supressing military votes...
