As a friend of mine keeps advising me when I complain that my job sucks:
“The checks don’t bounce.”
“The checks don’t bounce.”
“The checks don’t bounce.”
“The checks don’t bounce.”
.......
And, while a vigorous debate regarding the various candidates is good and healthy, “...let’s keep our eyes on the ball people...” as Michael Douglas suggests at one point in “The American President”.
“We MUST, ABSOULTELY, UNEQUIVOCALLY defeat Obama in 2012.”
“We MUST, ABSOULTELY, UNEQUIVOCALLY defeat Obama in 2012.”
“We MUST, ABSOULTELY, UNEQUIVOCALLY defeat Obama in 2012.”
“We MUST, ABSOULTELY, UNEQUIVOCALLY defeat Obama in 2012.”
“We MUST, ABSOULTELY, UNEQUIVOCALLY defeat Obama in 2012.”
“We MUST, ABSOULTELY, UNEQUIVOCALLY defeat Obama in 2012.”
.......
So, let’s ix-nay on the third party BS shall we? If we don’t UNANIMOUSLY vote for WHOEVER crawls out from under the dog pile, Obama will be back and each and every one of you who votes for ANYONE other than the GOP candidate will be PERSONALLY to blame for assisting that SPECIOUS and Republic-As-We-Know-It event to take place and that INCLUDES voting for PALIN as third party, write-in or wishful dreaming.
Remember the Perot elections (1992 @ 19% & 1996 @ 8%) - even though he withdrew, he siphoned off enough votes to put Clinton in the White House for EIGHT YEARS.
