ExRepublican – You won’t find much argument on this site. McCain is a stopgap. He’s a vote against Obama. There are many mid-40′s pols out there coming up. In another few years, things will be very different.

As far as I'm concerned, the last great president was Ronald Reagan, and that seems to be the concensus of most Republicans that I've spoken with. As for my ''name'', ExRepublican, that is how it must be for me from now on. People, we need to analyze the Republican party for what it IS today, not the great party of the past. Every time the Republican party ''reaches across the isle'' to the Democrats, somehow and for some reason the Republicans keep getting pulled to the left - and the makes me sick. The Republicans are now in the middle, straddling the fence with a few stragglers on the right. I used to say that I was a "conservative 1st, a Republican 2nd''. Now I'm just a ''conservative'' in search of a party with my same values. A 3rd (conservative) party is needed to wake up the Republicans - if that's possible. McCain was the worst pick of the bunch as far as I'm concerned. Yes, I know, I know he was a P.O.W. and I appreciate his sacrifice BUT that was then, this is now. We needed a STRONG conservative to rally the best of the Republicans for a victory tomorrow - not a fence straddler, liberal like McCain. After Bush's spend, spend, spend 2nd term, we needed a TRUE conservative to lift the party up. As for me, I see clearly now. Just think how many times Bush and his buds told us that, ''the economy is strong'' - more times and more lies than I cared to keep track of. Now he's given the crooks more money as a ''reward'' for such a ''strong economy''. No thanks - to him and the many Republican politicians who voted over a trillion dollars of our money away. Now that's ''conservative'', isn't it!?!

Jeff, ENOUGH with the idiotic post. I’ve seen it on every election thread on this site!! You are convincing no one with your repeats.

Truth, we don’t give a rat’s ASS what the world thinks. We care what America, the country people the world over die trying to get into, thinks. That’s all.

Hooyah!

I was in Tenn 4 years ago, counting 10-1 kerry to bush signs. Guess what? Tn went Bush. Polls are no longer accurate because the media runs them, and we all know they go left. They hope to convince repubs that their candidate will lose, to make it a self-fulfilling prophesy. It didn’t work, and it won’t work.

I’m off to early-vote McCain now. See you at the voting booth!

Please do yourself a favor and bet the house on McCain. Whats one more foreclosed house out there? I can’t wait to be back here in 2 weeks laughing at all of you. It will be great. But I am sure most of you will bury your heads and not appear for 2-4 months. Good luck with that Grandpa candidate and that overpriced hooker you have, guaranteed you will look back in three weeks and say “what were we thinking?”

“McSame, That retard finger point at you.”

Well anyone using the name McSame pretty much is. Considering the Left USED McCain back in 2004 as a shill AGAINST Bush (Remember he wrote a book attacking Bush’s policies) and how Obama’s vice president choice (keep forgetting his name… he isn’t mentioned much anymore since the left has had him in hiding ) Told Kerry that he should ASK McCain to be his VP in the last election.

Yet, NOW McCain is McSame and just like Bush.

LAWL! That’s a spin in a half. But then again the left are known to waffle like that, just like the whole Iraq thing.

Too many people remember McCain being a shill against Bush in 2004 to believe the “McSame” bullcrap.

The only ones that do, are the ones that know better anyhow, but still stay it because the TRUTH doesn’t matter to them.

And if Obama does get in, He is going to get the SLAMMING of his life. The way the left attacked Bush the past 8 years will look like child’s play the way Obama would get it if he gets elected. If McCain gets it? You are right, it will be McSame. McSame way the left treated Bush.

Sorry, I just don’t buy into that “I am better than you” act the left portray.

“You people are retards. Its not IF Obama will win its by HOW Much he will win by. And you people consider yourself up on politics. Thats why you are republicans, you can’t face facts because you have to much FAITH in your warped beliefs.”

I was told the same thing about Kerry and Edwards. I am not saying who will win. I wouldn’t be so stupid to do such a thing. You must have a lot of faith in your warped beliefs.

nick – No, I’m not highly accomplished. I had a really rough childhood, then I developed health issues. Still, i was making progress, then I went mostly blind. You still laughing at me, hmm?

Anyway, I’m not running for Prez. My qualifications don’t matter, just my reasoning, my character, and my values. Do you dispute this?

As to “chickenhawks”, some of us served. How about you? More importantly, how about Obama? I believe, that if elected, he’ll be the first Prez to have never served in the military. Isn’t that interesting?

Rick: I think you got it all wrong. This election is more like 1976, 1988 or 1992 one a rep victory the other two dems. Why? You allude to 1980 when Reagan came up after Carter led most of the way. The press in that election, as in all elections had over vetted Reagan and ran stories against him by a ratio of 9:1, he finally pulled away when America realized he wasn’t the monster portrayed in the media. This year Obama gets universal adoration from the media while Mc Cain gets disdain. It is similar to 1992. Only Clinton won with the help of the Reform party. Yet he still had an 11% lead on the weekend before the election and managed to eke out a 4% win. I think Obama does not have the Reform party, but he does have $2B more in money than Mc Cain and he will get about a 3-4% victory with that money. Mark my words, if the press had treated Reagan the way it is treating Obama, those polls would have been completely reversed and Reagan would have carried every state. The press did not turn against Carter until just the fortnight before the election when the polls ‘suddenly’ reversed themselves [regardless, the media still could not manage to run stories in favor of Reagan, it just hated both candidates after about Oct 23rd 1980].
