    Ok Cincy...I know your a staunch republican (I remember your posts from 4 years ago)..enlighten us on why you feel McCain/Palin is the right choice???
    You never really said WHY you thought Bush was right 4 years ago and we all know he was sooo horribly wrong, tho I doubt you or anyone else as staunch as you will ever admit it.


    I never said I think McCain/Palin is the right choice...my vote keeps flip-flopping. I agree with McCain/Palin on more issues generally, especially the economy and tax/spend...but I'm not sure that McCain will actually reduce spending in Washington, which is why I'm not definitely voting for him.

    I voted for GW 2 times. I agree with him also on many issues, unfortunately, he didn't follow through with reducing spending, privatizing social security, etc. Instead he used the fact that he got my vote based on those issues and he ran a terrible war. It seems to me the republicans (most) in Washington now became far to interested in keeping power and not interested enough in being fiscally conservative and limiting the goverment. This is why I took part in the Democrat Caucus in Iowa this year.

    I doubt you;ve read many of my posts (I'll admit, there have been plenty), becuase I've been pretty open with how I feel about BUsh and the republicans. I disagree fundamentally with Obama...I think his plan will be bad for the economy unless he curbs his spending more, I think socialized health care is a terrible idea. I find that it's easy for people to like you when you promise to GIVE them everything. It's easy to say that everyone should be covered, it's a different thing how you deal with it. Anyhow, I digress...

    Despite my extreme disagreements with him and the Dem party, I would liek to send a message to the Republicans, that they need to return to the small government, fiscally conservative party. They need to stop legislating people's private lives and they need to get Washington to stop stealing $ from hard working Americans for failed Government programs that keep people down instead of lifting them up. So, if I were voting today, I'd vote for Obama. But that can still change, but it won;t ever change because someone halfway around the world asks me to.

    I'll vote for whomever it takes to keep Obama out of office. Period.

    I have based my decisions on the issues and I don't agree with hardly anything he says. And please let's not make this a democrat/republican thing which has nothing to do with anything. I'm a reghistered democrat and I voted for Obama for Senate and he hasn't done ANYTHING to deserve a promotion.

    I'm a registered Democrat and thought of voting for McCain but his choice of Palin made me go woooooe and made me think what in the world was he thinking. He's going to bring change and he's a true maverick he won't get my vote and neither will Obama.

    I want to now register as an Independent.

    Well, you got me there, but it was against Gore and Kerry...;)

    You are shocked that I'd consider a McCain/Palin ticket? I agree with their stance on far more issues...so it comes down to 2 questions...

    1) Do I believe they will do as they say and be effective at changing the crap in the republican party?

    2) Should the repubs even get a chance, or have they blown it so badly that I need to send them a message?

    Don't feel so bad Cincy, the Dems haven't done a better job either.

    there are other candidates on the ticket outside of dems ...

    1. it's the same platform as bush - only the names have changed - it's clear palin was brought on simply because she actually buys into the whole christian right neo-con approach - and that she is easily manipulated by special interests ...

    2. i guess it depends on how bad you think this current administration really is ... if you want status quo then by all means consider this ticket ... but I would think you're not in favour of what has been happening ...

    i suppose it boils down to this with you as well ... you're in a swing state ... and you probably feel like you don't want to "waste" a vote on a 3rd party - so, you have to choose between dem and rep for your vote to matter ...
