You know my son is 19 years old and able to vote in this upcoming election. He said something to me the other day and I agree with him. He said..."Why don't we just start all over." Throw out these two canidates and start with new ones and see if we can come up with two much better canidates." I said, that sounds like a great idea and wish that we could do that.

But McCain isn't it either. McCain is barely a "D" Student and was in the lowest "5" of his class. That's pretty bad coupled with his crazy level of anger and improper emotional management.

Neither Obama nor McCain have what it takes to lead this country.

I know in my hear that Obama is not about change and that is is a liar. He is my Senator and he does not own up to his promises. He is all about what is politically best for Obama and that is it. I do not trust Obama nor like him exactly as I have felt with Al Gore who is also a liar and will say and do whatever simply to protect Al Gore's personal interests.

Well, I was going to say something but Strider said it all

The surpluses and the "balanced budget" were only on paper, the daily, weekly, monthly, annual accummulative nattional debt soared. Also, I did live through those times, a family of four, earning only $25K to $30K, paying out the whazoo for family health insurance, bringing home at most $300 per week, only to find out in 1993 that I was one of the richest 1% of Americans when my taxes increased 10%. Yes, I now love tax cuts for the rich, because, at the Dem-Lib rate, that means anyone who works at anything above minimum wage, except members of congress!!!!

What is it with Republicans, conservitives ALL now bringing Hitler into discussions?? Another one of their 'fear' tactics???

What the hell was that my friend? Read policy positions, jeez, they're out there instead of parroting the fading right and the absolute disaster of the last seven years. And Bill Clinton wrecking the economy? I'm not sure where that cane from when the economy roared for 8 years and was in the black...you know, surpluses. And your comparisons with Hitler and the like?
It's posts like this that disturb me...no facts, just fear that the neoconservatives will soon be gone and assigned a place in history as a complete disaster. As dumb and dull as John McCain is, I don't see the neoconservatives as being a big part of his administration. They'll be assigned their rightful place as individuals with a pipe dream of ruling the world at any cost: torture that tears at the moral fabric of our country, the disappearance of true open market competition with a few Oil Giants making sure their the only game in town while telling the rest of Americans...tough luck, drug companies monopolizing the market place setting the ridiculous prices that people literally die because they can't afford or make crap that they get approval from the FDA because they hire the people to write the briefs and do their short studies, lack of mortgage market regulations entrapping Americans into loans they can't afford and them knowing that to literally legalize loan sharking while causing the collapse of the home market, letting China fill their coffers with American dollars dumping their cheap exports on us while our jobs disappear and we keep their dirty economy roaring away in double digit growth with their slave labor, dangerous products, while helping to continue to stagger the dollar to further drive up the cost of oil, or the total lack of an energy policy keeping us trapped as a captive audience on an obsolete technology that should have transitioning years ago instead of putting our economy in peril depending on countries that are a disaster away from blowing up our economy, and now having Bush saying the solution is to keep digging for more oil knowing that the future is not oil but a vast potential in new technology that can power our transportation and facility and residential energy requirements with out a drop of pollution or further move us toward the tipping point of global warming. or the new Pope Urban's that deny what is already occurring as we continue to move in the consequential stage of global warming not giving a dam if we leave our children a ravaged planet...the right however shrinking, maintains their collective egoic insanity with their views. It was always a house of cards...conservatism without conscious, a belief even to lie is okay because it serves a bigger cause? The delusional right is about to pass, the veil has been pulled away and history will have a sad story to tell but it won't take away the incredible carnage left behind by their hateful divisiveness, their shredded moral fabric and the total devastation of the economy.
