Editorial: Voting for McCain would be voting for Bush (vote, democratic, Republicans) - Elections - City-Data Forum

This was going to be an editorial but I can't get it in any newspapers, so here it is:

"Dear Editor,

Voting for John McCain to be the new President of the United States would be voting for an older, grumpier and far more war obsessed version of President Bush. Unless the American people want another "George Bush" in office for another four years, I would seriously advise people to take a second look at John McCain, his values, his vision and his promises, before we are given the option to elect Senator McCain in November".

i think that is very clear . I believe some republicans no matter what, would not vote for a democrat .

I finally found an editor who would publish it:
Deseret News | McCain just a grumpier Bush

that would be very true if it were an issue of sheer personality.

I've been voting since i was 18 years old. I am now 29. I have always voted democratic. To be honest i'm considering not voting at all this time. I guess i'm more realistic then idealistic like i used to be. It seems to be the same tired story with every candidate. I'm a republican-I'm going to keep war going, im a democrat i'm going to tax and spend. I hate to be so black and white about but it but that seems to be the way it is. Everyone keeps talking about how great Obama is and how he wants to change everything, well to be honest i'm not clear on what he is about. I think everyone thinks he looks like a good president, which he does...but this isn't american idol this is america's future. I would feel guilty for voting for any of these candidates because i just don't feel strongly about any of them.

Wow! What an original take on the Presidential race. I'm sure the editorial department was blown away with your originality.

Thanks! They must have liked it since they have put over 30 of my articles in before. I've had the hardest time getting this article in. I completed this article in February and I have sent it all over the country and somebody finally published it.

It's two sentences. How is that an "article"?
