I guess the thing I'm attracted ...I hear you Mark. I guess the thing I'm attracted to McCain for, and I think you'll appreciate this logic,<BR/>is that he really isn't the choice of die-hard Republicans like Rush Limbaugh and the other radicals in the party. Whereas I see both Obama and Clinton as stellar examples of their polarity. Can we ever get back to the middle? I don't know. But part of me honestly believes McCain is closer to it than the other two.<BR/> Either way, America will survive.<BR/>It's, as an entity of freedom, is stronger than any one party.

It's good to know that people can be frien...Hi Ron. <BR/><BR/>It's good to know that people can be friends and *not* have to agree on everything. Probably half of my friends are my polar opposite politically, and we have a good time "discussing" the candidates and the issues.<BR/><BR/>As far as my remedy, I haven't picked one yet.<BR/><BR/>I would have considered voting for the John McCain who, in 2000, called Jerry Falwell an agent of intolerance. Or the McCain who openly and passionately criticized Bush's policies. But I don't know the McCain who sucked up to Falwell and now embraces much of the President's failed initiatives (i.e. fixing the economy by giving tax breaks to the wealthy...I consider myself pretty well-informed, and I don't think that's worked out). <BR/><BR/>Maybe McCain decided that speaking his mind wasn't going to get him elected, so he's become Bush Lite.<BR/><BR/>So, yeah, I'll probably give the Obama-Clinton ticket a try. I feel like it's better than settling for more of the same. And, as my father-in-law used to say, "This country can survive anybody for for years."<BR/><BR/>The last eight have proven him right.Mark Justicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15554011945292854614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18696447.post-36334110724096291962008-05-29T14:41:00.000-04:002008-05-29T14:41:00.000-04:00Sorry you didn't get to meet Bill.And even though ...Sorry you didn't get to meet Bill.<BR/>And even though we are on different sides in regards to politics, I do<BR/>agree completely that the country<BR/>is in a bad way. Having said that, I certainly don't want to see it get worse, which will happen with your<BR/>"remedy." My guy has a proven record of finding the middle-ground between both sides.Ron Fortierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13309149554499286208noreply@blogger.com
