I am voting for the lesser of two evils once more, but getting tired of it. I won't vote for a third party for the time being, since there isn't one that is conservative.

You would not consider Bob Barr a Conservative?

We really need a 3rd party that will be accepted.
If everyone who wants to vote for a 3rd party did so--it wouldn't be a wasted vote. Many of us yearn for a viable 3rd party, but no one wants to be the 1st to vote for one. It seems that we all want to be one of the winners, and are afraid to make a false step. We deserve what we vote for.

If this vote is somewhat representative it spells bad news for McCain, who would lose about 9% of the vote that Bush got, which would make him a loser.

McCain. Anybody who says the first thing they'll do as president is sign the Freedom of Choice Act does not have the respect for human rights I demand in a leader.

Seriously, all of you who voted for Bush twice owe the rest of us Americans an apology for the past 8 years.

It's like asking those with the worst political instincts in the history of politics to tell who they support this year. It appears McCain gets the nod.

Hahaha. If you are such a wishy-washy wimp that you would allow a few of my comments to sway you, you aren't worthy to vote - get a mind first.
