Tell that to the Russians of 1917, who allowed their system to collapse.
Or the Germans of 1933, who didn’t like Hitler but allowed him to take over anyways.

Once evil takes hold it doesn’t let go.

If one would really want to fix the country, then maybe it’s better to take a fastest approach. If we reach total disarray quicker, then we can start fixing it sooner. A slow, continued, descent won’t wake up the sheeple. A fast, shocking, descent should turn some heads, no?

One thing McCain does is talk to us fairly straight. He's not always up front, but mostly. In contrast, OBiden both blatantly and consistently lie on everything. Combine their deceitful agendas with a Democrat controlled Congress and Senate, and we are screwed! We need the check and balance of a president who isn't a Democrat. McCain isn't Bush, and despite some bad, he's done lots of good.<br /> Not ideal, but clearly the lesser of two evils.</p> I was with you on the no-McCain vow for several years, but I must ask you to please reconsider.

Sitting this one out is supporting Obama – that’s all he needs, his vote manufacturing machine can do the rest.

Still think that free speech is a “pox on both their houses” issue?

Can’t believe the Dems managed to find a candidate this much worse than McCain on the 1st Amendment, but they did.

Last night all we got were televised stump speeches for the two major political parties. It wasn't a real debate. The United States citizens haven't had a real political debate for president since 1992 when Ross Perot was allowed to debate. That was the last year that the League of Women Voters were allowed to host the national debate. It was taken over in classic conflict of interest way by the newly created government agency which always magically finds a way to bar any outside valid Presidential Candidates from participating. The task of battling 50 different state's ballot access laws and managing to get on the ballot in enough states to in theory win the office should be the only requirement for participation. That bar to entry leaves the USA 4 candidates to include in a debate. So if Obama was for real change and McCain was for reform both should have agreed to include Nader and Barr if they wanted a real debate. Which brings us back to why the League of Women Voters who were stripped of their major service to this country and debates were put into the hands of partisan hacks. Neither party is for real change or reform and these dog and pony show debates are just there to lull the voting public into thinking there is more than a dimes bit of difference between the actual actions of either of these two candidates. </p> What debate?
