I must admit that at first I spent a lot of time worrying about the diabolical plots of the Republicans--they are known for hatching them, after all.  But when it comes down to the general election, I do know this...I won’t vote for a Republican.

Republicans scare me.  Despite their clamoring on ideology and conservatism, they support gross invasions of privacy like data mining and recruiting the phone companies to lift your conversations. 

In addition, it appears that what they really want as government is a theocracy, not a democracy.  I was always taught that religion was a private matter that had nothing to do with government.  Given that, I just don’t give a s..t about what religion you are. 

Huckabee simply terrifies me.  I’m apalled to see a grown man whine about embryos on television and declare that embryonic tissue is what separates republicans from all others.  Its downright medieval.

What interested me most was to see a response to Blue Cross recruiting doctors to help cancel patients.  Clearly the next president has to be willing to fight the corporations for whom people are merely pests that endanger their profits.  These are the issues that define the mettle of the candidates--I want a fighter (for me, not for embryonic tissue).

If it’s Obama that will pretty much guarantee a
“major terrorist attack” a few weeks before the election

I like this article by Robinson.  He has explained the republican’s dirty tricks very well!  While knowing just how dangerous these people are when they reach power, I am not intimidated.  I still adhere to the principle laid out in our Constitution that all government employees are our SERVANTS, rather than our masters, as they aspire to be.
The Bush years brought our country closer to dictatorship than ever before.  This is a turn of events that all Americans should stand up and screams against with all their lung power.  We have the “Homeland Security” hoax devised by Bush, which is not much more than a plan to spy on American citizens.  He has passed numerous bills through his right wing congress that go directly against the wellfare and the will of the people.  Irregardless of the many crimes committed by this individual, I don’t see him being brought forth to answer for even one!  Thus, when he’s all done in Washington, he’ll ride off into the sunset to languish for the rest of his life under full protection at tax payer expense!  Is this insanity, or what?
Yes, I believe Obama will face unrelenting pressure beneath the Washington wheel.  His experience is not as full as Clinton’s, yet I believe he is capable of rerouting the country from certain disaster to a more safe plane..., if allowed!  I fear the iron-clad support of Kennedy and what he expects to glean from it in return.
All this being said, I reiterate.., there is no goddamned republican under my bed!!

The Democratic Party has been behaving for years now like retarded adolescents.  They no longer act, they react to the Republicans, to their fear of the Republicans, of what the Republicans will say and in doing so have turned themselves into a doormat...a yellow doormat. 

They stand for nothing and the same members of the Democratic Party continue to vote with the Republicans.

The Democrats roll over time and time again; they have abandoned the Constitution, their own Constitutional duties, the American people and behave like vulgar ner’do wells selling themselves to the highest bidder just as they sold out the airwaves, the press and TV.

We are already in Pravda land and it may get worse.
It is understandable that all these young people are sick of sermons ladled out like soup from old fogies who have spent their lives in their Congressional bubble, paid for by money pulled from our pockets. 

No wonder Obama inspires.  He is like a breath of fresh air in a smelly hospital ward.  What a change from the usual Bush, Clinton, Bush and now another Clinton or Ole Man McCain headed off to a Hundred Years War.

I really don’t see how the “Obama has no experience” moniker is going to stick to Barack.

Whoever throws it will just be setting themselves up to have it thrown right back in their faces.

Hillary’s vast experience is what lead her to not only rubberstamp Bush’s war of aggression on Iraq in 2002, but despite having to constantly defend that incredibly poor decision for the past 6 years, she proved in 2007 that her “years of experience” didn’t sway her away from voting for the insane Kyle/Lieberman amendment – a pretext for war with Iran! That decision, more than her stupidity in greenlighting the Iraq fiasco, is why I would NEVER vote for her. She has learned nothing!

And McCain’s wonderful experience has led him to the conclusion there is no way out of Iraq – period! Accepting that the US will remain bogged down there for the next 10,000 years (which he claims the American people really won’t mind!), McCain shows that his many years of experience and military acumen is no better than George W Bush – someone completely lacking in either knowledge or experience.

Imagine Bush or Cheney or any of their GOP surrogates, whose decision making has been so catastrophically wrong time and time again, now claiming that “Obama doesn’t have enough experience for the job”. Point to the person whose experience level he Obama should have and I’ll show you someone who has neither the brains nor the intellectual capacity for the job – and that includes not only Hillary Clinton and John McCain, but the entire beltway crowd and media superstars who have never acknowledged their critically important role in committing the greatest foreign policy disaster in US history.

that remains in my circle is on the run 3 steps ahead of the IRS. Seriously. All others finally see there is NO real conservatism in GOP front runners.

The whole “electable” strategy showed its illogical weakness in 2004 when Kerry got creamed.
PEOPLE it’s the issues. The Democrats have no right to our vote...they have to earn it. So far neither Hillary nor Obama have promised to immediately withdraw from Iraq much less Afghanistan and vowed not to attack Iran. The majority of Americans support the ending of the Iraq war yet none of them acknowledge this. Nancy Pelosi has given up substantial support for lower approval ratings than Bush. It’s about issues people and none of the mainstream Democrats have the issues right. The Democrats could still loose if they continue to ignore what the majority want. It’s called Democracy and it’s part of their name. It’s time they practiced it!

Head’s up:

They haven’t scrapped the electorial college, and the map still favors Republicans.

Arizona, Idaho, Utah, Wyoming, Alabama, Mississippi, Kansas, North Dakota, and Indiana are red States now and for the foreseeable future. The only States where the Democrats have the same Rock Solid claim are Massachusetts,Hawaii and Minnesota, and even these are not absolute, as Massachusetts and Minnesota went of Reagan in 1980, and Massachusetts and Hawaii went for Reagan in 1984.

No Democrat has carried Idaho or Alaska since 1964, and only one Democrat has carried Arizona in 60 years, and this was due to their dislike of Bob Dole. except for a brief stray into Carter Country in 1976, Alabama and Mississippi have not voted for the Democrat since 1956.

Hill-the-business-shill is HATED by 47% of the people, so I would guess (assuming the obvious victory of the Clinton machine) that this will be a close election.... Las vegas is giving the D’s a point or two, but my guess is that when it is McCain/Clinton, head to head, the points will be McCain’s.

And if the Democrats win? We’ll still have a war with Iran; we’ll still be in Iraq; we’ll still have a bloated miliatary budget; we’ll still have the NAFTA treaties and loss of jobs; we’ll still have insurance and pharmaceutical companines runing health care… The first Wednesday in November it’ll be business as usual.
