Hillary is in the middle?

Ohhhh....."his". Do you mean McCain? He's hardly a foe. He's toast, and you know it. Even you guys don't want him.

I'd hardly call him "toast" at this point.

You are right though, I don't want him....but given the choice between two things you don't want don't you pick the one that is the least objectionable to you? Assuming you voted for Kerry 4 years ago....did you vote for him because you liked him or was there some other force compelling you to make that choice

McCain is going to lose. You know it, I know it- even Faux-News knows it. Limbaugh's Operation Push against Obama only confirmed that he knows it as well.

Oh, and I voted for Kerry because I didn't think Bush was a good alternative. I think events have proved that to be so. I didn't vote for him because he was a Dem, that's for sure. If there was a Republican candidate with a moderate stance on the issues and the ability to string together a semi-intelligent sentence, I would have voted for him/her. There wasn't.

He might lose, I just don't see any evidence out there to convince me he's "toast" just yet....

However, if he does lose I can look back to this post and say, "see, I allowed for the possiblilty that he could lose"..........if he wins though, what will you say?

You can speak for me anytime, dear.

It's all about covering the bases then, Jeff?

No, it's about keeping an open mind.

Okay, I hate the chain letter antics at the end of this video, but otherwise it pretty much says exactly what I think about McCain.

A few weeks ago I wrote the following at my blog:

http://ohbabythatswhatilike.blogspot...or-lesser.html

My dad and I are in disagreement on this end. He voted for Perot twice and regrets it and says that in doing so he wasted his vote. I disagree. However he is a realist and I am an idealist. I believe voting for someone because he is the lesser of two evils is throwing your vote away. It is interesting though that we did not talk about this until just now. That's why it crossed my mind again.

Do you think I am right or a complete moron?
