See, the problem is you act as if we have no choice.

Americans never have to choose the lesser of two evils. Americans never have to choose evil at all. We’re the sovereign people. If we don’t like the field, we’ll simply expand it.

Assuming that the Red-Diaper Baby gets past the Shrew, it won’t matter a whit whether Conservatives vote for McCain or not.

This election will be made into a beauty contest by the media, and that’s a contest that McCain cannot win. He’s old, he’s scarred, both literally and figuratively, he’s got a temper that will erupt at some point to create a “Dean Scream” moment, and when he tries to sound calm and rational he winds up looking like warmed-over death on TV. I’ve met zombies who were more animated. Obama will win in a landslide, more’s the pity.

So forget the discussion over whether not voting is a vote for Obama. Start concentrating on whom you will support down-ballot! It’s the only chance we have to protect ourselves from le deluge.

and your solution is? Love how people heap on others but have no workable answers or solutions themselves. I look forward to your solution to all of this since you are so very intelligent and others measly thinkers in comparison.

>>I just don’t understand why bush gets a pass for all his liberal positions<<

If you think “Bush gets a pass” you haven’t been paying attention. Yes, there are some here who don’t want any criticism of Bush, just as there would be those who would try to shout down any criticism of McCain.

Bush and McCain put loyalty to Mexico above their own country (as do Obama and Hillary). If McCain has changed on this, he hasn’t told us yet.

There is no short term solution. The next president will be unfit for the office. That cannot be changed.

To keep America, as we know it, from some very grave harm, we need to elect a congress that will act to limit the schemes of the next president. This will be very difficult, if even possible.

If he next president is left to have his/her way,the America we know, will be irreparably altered.

When the troops do come home, it will be to a land terribly different from the one they went off to defend and protect. If we cannot get honorable people who represent the interests of the American people in the houses of congress, the future will be very challenging. Without that congress, a RAT president will be unstoppable. Without that congress, McCain will fall over himself to accommodate any RAT idea that comes along, with the exception of military funding. But a RAT congress could override him.

I'm not heaping on you. I just don't see McCain as even a small part of an acceptable solution.

That office is out of play as part of any solution. At least until 2012.
