This conservative will NEVER vote for McCain. I would rather have the evil D stalinist than another RINO pretender.

I have a co-worker that hates unions (of which I am a member) and he votes dem. I was like.. "but dems support unions" and he just laughed. Then NAFTA passed and he was tickled to death to see all the factories closing.

Dems forget it was a dem majority in congress and a dem president that sold us out on NAFTA.

No,it's not the center(if it was,then you wouldn't have this guy as your Republican Presidential Candidate.)Even if you think Republicans voted for him because they were scared of losing with a Conservative.They still were doing that as a result of their views being right of the country's center.The country's center is somewhere between Lieberman and McCain.The more he gets like Lieberman,the more chance he has.Conservatives will vote against Hillary,or Obama(if it's a close state.)McCain should ignore them.Do what he did last week to the Cincy ass-hole.

the electoral college was put in place so that smaller, less populated states would have as much say in the election as the larger states. i don't see that system going away any time soon.

You obviously dont know much about McCain if you believe that he is a Bush clone and McCains positions on the economy are not much different than Sir Hillary's. I am not commenting on McCain's abilities but he is not that similar to Bush except he is a white guy (which is a bad thing for many lefties)

You mean your running mate has to be sober more than 15 minutes a day?

i don't see how he can be compared to bush, or called a bush clone.

but i also don't see where hillary has all this 'experience' all of a sudden. from where? being first lady of arkansas? first lady of the u.s.? the one thing bill gave her to run with, health care, blew up in her face. her not even two terms as a ny senator? i'd say her time spent in public office is comparable to obamas. and it cracks me up to know that bill said obama is too young, too experienced--sounded almost like what was said about him when he ran!

When running for office truth is often a matter of opinion.

McCain n' Bush are both Republican white guys that performed poorly in college tests and/or military tests.Both were aided by influential fathers/grandfathers etc.That's about it.McCain is not nearly the a-hole
that GEEDUMBO is.The Conservatives don't have a candidate...F them.

Scuds.
I think ultimatley you are good fella.

But jeez you are right and then so totally wrong on so may levels
about a state you know very little about.

I am very long winded (naugghhh), so I will just take on
one section; the bolded one. Then if you want more, if you
really want to know more about how it works here...
I could continue. Although the rest of the board might
want to throw up as I have many fans.

The bolded section favors democrats big time. BIG TIME.
And you are right about it being unfair.

pgardn 03-05-2008 07:50 PM

Scuds one other thing to think about.

Rush Limbothersome let Bill Clinton on his
show and basically let him talk without
any real sort of challenge... Why?

I might add Clinton has not lost a step.
He was very, very good.

Good man for bring all this up as it is
interesting. Clinton is still on the ropes
and about to go, and Texas Republicans
HELPED.

ok, I'll go along with that. I wouldn't want anyone to confuse him with any limited gubment, liberty minded conservatives.

I know that everyone says we have to dumb it down so the idiot swing voters will go along.

not too many people may know this but it appears that Obama has the same criminal connections that the gov. of il Rod Blogo has. I doubt it would happen but he may have to appear in court.

of the last 4 governors - only former gov. Jim Edgar has managed to stay out of jail.
btw
Jim Edgar is a horse enthusiast. The family are owners.
