Does that answer your question.
I didn't. And I won't.I was given 4 choices on the ballot. Bush, Gore, Nader or Browne. I voted for Browne.
When Bush was elected I hoped he would be better than Gore.
He isn't. Gore would not have gotten away with what Bush has done and is doing.
If you knew what a disappointment Bush turned out to be, would you ever have voted for him in the first place. Lets get this thing out of the White House in 2004.
As difficult as it was for me, being a lifelong GOP activist, I didn't vote for him. I found it necessary to vote for Harry Browne, not because I agreed with everything that he stood for (I actually disagreed with him on a number of issues), but because Browne was by far, the closest thing to a conservative in the race. Being from Texas, I had ample opportunity to see Dubya at work before he became the darling of the GOP can do no wrong crowd and was therefore, well aware of Dubya's left-leaning tendency.
If the GOP doesn't find a better candidate for President soon, the Democrats won't have to worry about fielding a good candidate in 2004, because if Dubya wins, the Democrats win by default.
I disdain both RATS and SKULL/CROSSBONERS. Both in my opinion are evil. However I must admit that the S/C are smarter than the RATS. Question is do I want either? Both conspire to destroy this nation. Perhaps I should just burn my voter registration card, opt out of every opportunity to oppose the endless usurpations of our Constitutional heritage, and forget that such evil exists. Rocking back and forth while in a bean bag chair may be the ultimate escape from the hopeless reality of ultimate totalitarianism.
