I am really sickened that at this point in our history at the crossroads we are at -- we don't have anyone willing or able to pick up the pieces.
We are in a bad spot. It's looking more and more like we are going to be global citizens in some Scandinavian model world on steroids.
Bachmann is my primary choice but I have no intent to vote for the alternate reality of Newt Gingrich as the oppressed outsider.
Everyone always says a third party can not win, but I am not convinced of that. The GOP has turned itself into a progressive party while the Rats have gone totally Marxist. Ergo there is no conservative party to vote for. Since most people in the country are conservative to one degree or another I think a real conservative party might have a chance at winning. Certainly having to choose from Mitt/Newt or Obama is going to be a real turn off for many conservatives.
The irony is that without Ron Paul’s policies there will be total economic collapse and then NO money for defense. As for being Scandinavian, you wish. Total collapse. Scandinavia largely depends on exports to prosperous foreigners(think Volvo) and tourism(by the prosperous).
