Given the current conditions surrounding non-federally funded elections we will always be voting for the lesser of 2 fund raisers. When unknown candidates enter their name in the hat they will eventually fall short for a lack of funding.
Kudos to BCBess, I couldn't agree more that the tought of holding your nose while voting sucks.
If anyone choses to NOT vote, they just pissed on every soldier that has ever served duty since the birth of this nation. It's hard to imagine that there are some that would wrap themselves in the flag, piss red, white, and blue, crank that Toby Kieth dribble, tag their truck with a Support the Troops sticker, then refuse to vote...incredible!
I would love to see an end to this cycle of Bush/Clinton/Bush/H Clinton?/J Bush? Twenty years of leadership split between 2 families, with the possibility of a future 8-16 years more, simply cannot be in the best interest of the country.
McCain has grown to become a flip/flopping panderer for the religious right and the hispanic vote. It's too early to tell since we all know most politicians suffer from foot in mouth disease. (H. Dean) (Bush Sr's 2nd term Read my lips)
Although we love to think of the country as this great level playing field, it is a nieve thought at best.
Mondale lost: Female on the ticket
Gore lost: Ran with a Jew, didn't carry his home state
distanced himself from Clinton.
Romney: Mormon (I like him)
Obama: His skin isn't wonderbread white, not enough experience
Clinton: I think the country is tired of the Bush/Clinton era.
Guiliani: If your kids won't vote for you it's a sign
Gingrich: Too much baggage, women hate him
If the GOP hopes to retain any base at all Cheney will have to tell George to ask for his resignation. But there is no way Bush will ask for Cheney resignation on his own, afterall you can't fire your boss.
Get ready to hold your noses boys, but don't disrespect the troops both past and present by not voting. That's just dumb
