Possible Democratic Convention party/fundraiser

Hmm. I like to party. And in terms of Dem's, I like Obama far more than any candidate I have seen within my lifetime. 'Cept maybe for Lieberman. I love what the guy has to say. Very inspirational. Problem is, I just can't support him on many, if not most, of his positions. I can't contribute and likely will not vote for him, but I do think I would be OK with him being elected. Far more than I could say for Clinton/Gore/Kerry. Finally, the Dem's decide not to run a d-bag. Good move. And the Republicans - McCain? Really? Maybe 10 years ago but dang. I don't know.

I am so disenfranchised as it regards the upcoming election. Once again I feel like I can't vote for the one I want so much as vote against the one I don't. Now, if I could guarantee Obama with a Republican congress? Well that certainly woud be interesting. Perhaps warranting my first vote for a Democrat ever. Suffice to say, I rarely vote for the Republicans either. I tend to vote for the loosing (Libertarian) candidates.

I think that would work quite nicely. I disagree with Obama on all of the details, but love the "can do" attitude, eloquent public speeches (what a refreshing change) and the suposed support abroad. If his "image" could alone fix the issues with the Dollar while a Republican congress could keep him in check from f'ing things up too bad, I might be midly satisfied.
