i personally have no problem with voting for a third party candidate, i had been doing it most of my life until the last three elections, when it looked like the right was taking over.

but america voted in the dems last election, and look what happened…nothing!

what’s the point of the two party system, when one party is greedy and corrupt and the other party just pretends not to be?

i’m still not sure whom to vote for, but i am totally put off by the whole process now.

Even as angry as I am with the Dem Party establishment, I don’t think we have the luxury of not voting for the Dem in November, especially if the mentally unstable, warmongering McCain is the Rep nonimee. Anyone – of either party – is preferable to McCain-Lieberman. That’s like a Cheney-Cheney combo.

The momentum is swinging with Obama right now. I’m not convinced that he is the right choice. He says the right things. I’ve agreed with most of his votes in the Senate. However, at this point I think Hillary will be the better choice. Regardless, I’ll support either of them.

Change will take time. It took Bush and his gang of merry men (and women) years to mess it up. It will take years to fix it. Perhaps with control of Congress and the White House the Dems will get more agressive. To believe otherwise is to completely lose hope. I could start packing my suitcase and follow the rest of you out. 😉 Someone turn out the lights please.

Bryan is right – I”m too old for this shit, too. And it seems like the best I can do is spit uselessly in their faces. I’m tired of waiting for A Hero.

If he could rouse himself, Gore could do it…..but I can’t blame him for not wanting to getting himself and his family in the filthy mess again.

Ghost Dansing, a lot of people put a lot of blood, sweat, tears, and money into getting a Democratic Congress, and having achieved it, nothing changed. The current Democratic leadership doesn’t have the guts to change things, so what is the point for voting for more of the same.

There is no time for triangulating or making nice, the situation is too dire. Things must change and change quickly. Climate change is not waiting for a consensus. The national debt is still accumulating interest. People are still dying in Iraq. The economy is going down the drain. The people in the lead act like we just need to sit around a table and talk. That time was years ago, Now we need to act,

Pelosi took impeachment off the table to get things done, not appreciating that impeachment was the only way anything could be accomplished. I’m really tired of the incredibly stupid people in charge. The place is on fire and they want to have a conference call to see what should be done.

Enough – I’m too damn old for this shit.

it took me years and years and years to get a handle on math, but i turned out to be reasonably good at it once the light bulb went on.

The late Richard Rauch, a colleague of mine in my Amnesty International days, used to say, “There are three kinds of people: those who can count, and those who can’t.” 😈

I’m too old to emigrate… not to mention too thoroughly culturally and sociopolitically American. Need I emphasize the culture of which I partake is that of America prior to GeeDubya…

my top five, in no particular order: canada, mexico, cuba, france, greece, australia, new zealand. rounding out the top ten: china, japan, turkey, iceland, italy, belize.

my fondest hope is still that canada will invade the u.s., bringing their health care system with them. then i could stay right here in sunny florida.
