Yeah... denial of the error of '08. Or just being soft on fraud.

Your kidding right, no reason to vote for him in 2008 other than politically challenged voters.

I can think of many reasons to vote for Obama:

Mitt "Magic Underwear" Romney
Rick "Dumber Than Bush" Perry
Herman "Uncle Tom" Cain,
Michele "Bat-Crap-Crazy" Bachmann
Newt "Gold Medal Adulterer" Gingrich
Chris "Fat Asthmatic in the Hospital" Christie
Rick "Frothy Mix" Santorum

Etc .....

Yes.

The way the GOP is portraying itself, there's (thus far) no reason to not vote for Obama. Now, if the GOP were to manage to actually have a viable candidate (and not some moron peddling to get even the most extreme right-wing votes), then perhaps there would no longer be a reason.

At this point, it seems to me as though the GOP has forgotten that their base is pretty much the center right and not the far right.

And if you blindly believe all the above is true, you are a typical Texan.

I think I'll vote for Obama because the Republican alternatives seem to be real wackos.

Not crazy about the President (I like the First Lady, though) ... but I'll "hold my nose" and probably vote for him anyhoo ...
