This thread as erupted into the very thing I was ranting against! Wow..I think this only further proves my point.

It isn't really an "I'm Leaving" post (maybe leaving the P&OC forum though?). More like my own version of an election prediction.
And for the record, I suspect McCain will catch Obama in the popular vote, but Obama controls the states where large cities dominate the particular state (Washington, California, New York, etc.). And quite frankly, McCain can't compete with that.
I agree. But it will be close. And under almost any other circumstances, McCain would probably beat Obama badly in a presidential contest. But the country has been driven so far into the ditch that the electorate is desperate for a new and different driver.
It is surprising at how many people do not care about the real issues.. they just care more about the good ole boy club and and the 3 g's gun's god and gays...
I care about guns and the fact that Obama would like to take them away. That alone IMO is costing him a lot of votes. There are a lot of liberals I know that carry concealed weapons and are ticked that Obama is so far left on the issue.
As far as God, I have my relationship with him, I don't care to see it dragged into politics.
As far as gays, personally I find it a sin, but hey, somebody might think I'm doing something that they consider a sin and I think its okay. Really I don't care. The govt shouldn't be involved in the gay issue. That being said, not all Dems support gay marraige. Even Obama refuses to say he supports "marriage" but instead a civil union. Regardless, I don't think it should even be a topic. Maybe we could talk about feeding hungry people in our country instead. That would be my preference.
Personally why do guns need to be legal? Seriously as if you don't hear enough how kids steal their parents guns and shoot their classmates.
One or two scandals is enough to cause media damage for years. Why not have safer alternatives like mace, shock guns, I don't know. Something that doesn't require a bullet killing a person. Tranqualizers? Idk. Get creative.
Mccain is a third bush term.
I like Palin's speech, but she's too extreme. Kind of hypocritical.
Obama is the only chance for the country to rise up, I mean is America smart enough to vote DEMS this year to maybe give our country a chance?
Well my expectations are low, BUSH DID win the second term. Which proves the stupidity of American people.

I suggest you read the Constitution. If you did, you'd realize your right to open your fat yap, and spew your anti-American "opinion", is also a guaranteed right.
