If I didn't love this country so much, I would actually hope that Obama/Clinton won the Presidency, and that they took a supermajority of Congressional and Senate seats, just so my party could spend at least 4 years to learn their lesson . . .

Once upon a time a GREAT American and the greatest president in my life time asked one question. Are you better off today then you were 4 years ago? Personally I and my family are.However, my country that I love very much as well, but many of my fellow Americans are not. It's time to change Washington, we the people need better leadership moving forward and not more division.

And thats why John McCain is perfect for President. He has more bipartisan legislation than anyone in Washington right now. How much legislation has Obama sponsored that got Bi-partisan support? NONE.

I love my country as much as any Republican and I think that it is very important to our countries future that either Clinton or Obama wins this year. Members of both parties love their country.

^ I understand, but MY party has been abandoned and replaced by idiots like this. MY party needs to be hoisted on its own pitard, and 4 years of Obama might be the ticket, sorry to say. So we both get what we want.

8 years and its now time for a change. I don't vote the party but the person. I will not vote for John.

Hearsay, it's disappointing, I'm sure. But, there's no corner on the market of impropriety and corruption by one party or the other.

I do not like McCain but Obama is promising to raise my taxes. The choice is a no brainer for me.

I hope you mean you vote the issues, right? Surely you aren't voting for the person.

 

"Time for a change" is my favorite line too. If people were really so against this war, they would have came out and supported the only candidate who probably would actually withdraw us immediately- Ron Paul. Obama and Hilary are setting up a timetable for withdrawal, which may be worse the Paul's immediate idea. But it has little to do with the war, and more about being against Bush- who has an R by his name.

 

The issues are so far from the priority of the American voter that government by the people can disgust me.

As far as the war is concerned, any reasonable American realizes we can't just pull out. The length of time that we were potentially going to need to commit to the Iraqi situation should have been thought of by the people who decided to get us into this mess. Not only that, I'm stlll flabbergasted that so many Americans seem to have had no idea that military action in Iraq would result in years of American military involvement there. For the record, I think we'll be there for at least 4-8 more year, which sets up the next President for negative approval ratings, and maybe the next guy. Along about 3 elections from now, we'll find the man (or woman) who will be perceived as the savior in the situation.

If the Democrats didn't have their own similar situations, I'd agree with your sentiment, but they do, so I don't.

 

While I do think we should hold elected officials to somewhat of a higher standard, I think we all need to keep in mind that elected officials are "people too", not much different than any other group or segment of society. There are lawyers, doctors, accountants, business executives, salesmen, and blue collar workers that all have affairs and drive while intoxicated. Frankly if we have expectations that all elected officials are "saints", frankly we have unrealistic expecations. I'm not condoning this guys actions or forgiving his moral digressions one bit (as I think it does some provide some insight into a person's character and how they perform their official duties). Having said that, having an affair or even driving while intoxicated, is a much different matter than engaging in corruption, lying under oath as part of official duties, providing political favors in return for campaign contributions, engaging in voter fraud, etc. Don't you?

 

You show me a political party that is devoid of people that have never done the things this guy did and it will be the Jesus Christ Party with a membership of one.

Obama has been quoted numerous times, including recently in an interview with Wolf Blitzer, that if he becomes president he would pull out all troops within two years. Included in his comments was a statement that if the Iraqis could not stand up in 7 years then they would never stand up which strongly implies that Obama would pull troops out regardless of the situation on the ground in Iraq.

I agree with that.

Scary.

This is the kind of reckless rhetoric that makes Obama such a dangerous candidate. Chances are he would appoint advisors who would talk some sense into him, but why take the chance?
