barack doesn't know he's dead yet.
with obama the failure will much more likely result in a mushroom cloud....
“Gee, what a wonderful recommendation...”
No, it’s not, and that’s the point. McCain is tolerable, barely. I think he’ll move a bit to the right to solidify his base in the Republican Party. Still, voting for him is much more about voting for the (far) lesser of two evils, rather than voting for an ideal Republican candidate.
I think McCain should keep that fact well in mind - hence the slogan.
“If Hillary is elected president, we’ll have a four-year disaster, with Republicans ferociously opposing her, followed by Republicans zooming back into power, as we did in 1980 and 1994, and 2000. (I also predict more Oval Office incidents with female interns.)
“If McCain is elected president, we’ll have a four-year disaster, with the Republicans in Congress co-opted by “our” president, followed by 30 years of Democratic rule.”
I think the same argument applies to Obamessiah as well, but I’m not convinced that Republicans will oppose him quite as ferociously.”
I don’t buy this at all. If McCain wins, we’ll have a split government that will not accomplish much - possibly the ideal outcome given the ideologies of the major players, and given the alternatives.
If Obama/Clinton wins, we’ll have a unified Dem government that could very well do as much damage in four years as would have been done in the average twenty years. ESPECIALLY including SCOTUS nominees.
So, as I said originally, it is just simply wrongheaded thinking to decide that it’s “OK” if the Dems win this time. It’s not!
Ooops, forgot on the last post...
McCain ‘08! HE SUCKS LESS!
From the title, I thought this was an article about Frank Lautenberg winning the Dem primary in NJ yesterday........
Personally, I think I'd rather vote for Cthulhu. As a tagline I've seen wandering around here says, “Why vote for the lesser of two evils?”
OTH, that would be Hillary, wouldn't it?
I do wish McCain would select and announce his VP. Maybe then I could quit dithering.
