the anti-vote is a tricky one

is it possible that they vote for the person they really want but come up with some reason to not vote for the other guy/girl as a clever distraction of their primary decision making process

like... "I'm not racist, I'm voting for McCain because Obama doesn't not have enough foreign affair expierence."
or

"I'm not voting for McCain because can't lift his hands above his head."

One day I'll figure out why MicFri thinks everyone is racist. 

  Personally I think the abortion issue is a non-issue.  It's never going to change no matter who is in office.  The Republicans had both sets of congress and the White House, and Bush was putting in his own judges in the Supreme Court giving it a right swing now, as well as passing every Bill that hit his desk.  Only until the Democrats took over did he do a single Veto.

  They could have pushed out tons of anti-abortion laws, and no condoms, and no day after pill, and allow pharmacists to say "No" to filling drugs, and everything else that folks fear.  But they didn't.  They only passed that stupid law about partial birth abortion.  (And I say stupid, because if anyone ever read the legislation regarding Roe v Wade, it was already illegal.)  So there was no risk.

  Why won't it change?  Because the moment the Republicans over-turn Roe, they will no longer have the backing of the religious right.  The religious right tends to be working-class and in-many-cases poor.  These are typically folks who follow the Democrats (And historically always did until Roe)  So the Republicans will NEVER over turn it.  Not ever.

  So it's a non-issue.  It's a fun way to drive up emotions and threaten people and scare their base into voting. 

  Just like the Democrats will never vote away the right to bear arms.  Political suicide.  You know how many gun owners there are in this country?  Oh the Democrats will talk tough on guns, and propose legislation, but they know it'll fail.  They know it'll get knocked out in the courts.  That's why they pass the bills.  So they can say, "I tried.  I tried to get that bill through to stop guns, but damn the courts for blocking it."  They had the Brady Bill.  Whoop-dee-doo.  And they let that one slide and didn't renew the thing, afraid of the voting man's repercussions.

  There are many issues like this.  They should be ignored, unless you're really passionate about them, and then you can cross your fingers and do the pee-pee dance but shit won't change.   It just won't.

  With me...  I think of it like this.

1.  U.S.A. is at war in two countries.  Enemy is determined to kill Americans, preferabbly with a large knife while removing the living person's head.  Enemy needs to be eradicated.  I don't necessarily mean with bombs and bullets.  But the fact that Osama Bin Laden is still alive cutting tapes is unforgivable.  That guy needs to go, and his band of hoodlums with him.

2.  Russia has jumped the shark, and the shit is not over.  Scarey.

3.  The U.S.A. is broke.  We have no money for anything, and we borrow the rest.  This needs to be fixed, pronto.

4.  Alternative Energy needs a NASA like Government mandate to get done. 

5.  More protections for retirees, jobs, workers, and the economy as a whole.   Neither candidate will do much here, as nobody really understands the market today.  But the age of retirement will continue to deepend as the ability to retire lessens, and unless major problems are fixed, we are all doomed to work for the rest of our lives.

  Who has the better plan to fix these problems?  I don't know yet.  I hope that the debates bring these issues up, and not the same issues I mentioned earlier.  I want to hear what these people will do in office.  I don't care what their plan is for troop removal.  The Iraqi Government seems intent on getting us out before Obama or McCain can do anything about it anyway.  I don't care about off-shore drilling, or drilling in Alaska.  Leave that to the local Governments.  If Georgia wants oil platforms on their coast, let them decide.  And unlike MicFri, I don't care if Obama isn't black enough.  If his politics make sense, that's all that matters.  Right now though, I'm voting for McCain because he has no policies that effect me negatively like Obama does.  

  At the same time though, if the debates are on, and he's acting like an old fart babbling shit and not making any sense, and Obama charms me with his wit and candor, I might change my mind. 

  But let's get off the crap about Palin's daughter's baby.  Who fucking cares?  That's not gonna matter to me when I vote, I tell ya that.



 

Funerals.  They attend funerals.  I think the fear is that McCain will croak in the White House and Palin will take over and force everyone to stop wearing a condom.  I dunno.

Obama could get run over by his kid's learning to drive, and Biden could be in control.  I'm sure that'd be really interesting to see him having a conversation with Putin on the Georgia crisis.  By interesting, I mean harrowing.

she is a huge diversion

polls have been going increasingly in the direction of favoring Obama at greater percentages

they thought that they could bring out some one no one knew and that the news would trickle out over next two months while they continue to lie about her

information moves too fast now

it's been 5 days and we know everything

prediction are she will drop out and make way for the next distraction

she also used to be a sports caster

Palin worked for Jack Abramoff getting tax free money for lobbyists

she also left her home town with a 22 million dollar deficit when she left office, have you seen Alaska's?

She is going to get stomped by Biden in the debates

Obama is going to float like a butterfly sting like a bee when McCain steps up to debate him

polls since they were both the party nominees having been going steadily and more decidedly to Obama

it's a done deal, McCain gambled and it didn't pay off

unless he's got more tricks

game over

Dude, polls don't mean much when they are that close. A poll is a guy asking questions on the phone among registered voters. That doesn't mean those people will actually show up to vote. The margins need to be a lot wider than where they are now. The way the Republicans have been so unpopular lately I'd of thought Obama would have a much bigger lead. There's a good chance he'll lose the way things are looking.

Debates... Waiting for debates.
