Sorry, not trying to dis his past service (and as a disabled vet I wouldn't even think of it) but I don't beleive he has the guts needed anymore. He may be willing to hold the fight in the GWOT but he wants to hamstring us by not securing our borders and closing gitmo.


As someone else has said, choosing the lesser of two evils is still choosing an evil and I can't do that.

Jesus isn't on the ticket. Politics is always the lesser of to imperfections.

I'm not talking about two imperfect people...I'm talking about evil.


I swore an oath to defend the Constitution. Anyone doing harm to it, is therefore my enemy and is evil.

I'm a Conservative Christian (what does that mean anyway, being politically conservative and a Christian?) and I don't find any of the current candidates that great at all. I would have voted for Huckabee if it weren't for him quitting or getting kicked off the election. I might just vote for whoever my parents will. I really don't know if there is any good Christian candidate still in the elections. The United States is doomed to failure in the eyes of God....oh wait, it already has been doomed...

Everyone forgets about Ron Paul it seems.
I haven't forgotten him, and I may yet vote for him. The Washington primary is Feb. 19, and in WA on the Republican side, it counts for 51% of the delegate selection.

But I have mixed feelings about Ron Paul. I voted for him before when he ran on the Libertarian Party ticket in 1988, but I'm not so sure about doing that post-9/11. I like his domestic policy positions, but I think his radically non-interventionist foreign policy would be both naive and dangerous in today's world.

She technically wouldn't be running, but rather tagging along.
In the past perhaps, but it seems the veep's are getting more chances to debate/campaign.


Regardless, I would still fear for her safety. A black woman running for such a high office who happens to be intelligent, articulate and devoted to her causes is a threat and real target for some nutjobs out there.


Of course, God will place the people in power He chooses to fulfill His will.

Did anyone here actually like Romney? Something about him just rubbed me the wrong way. He gave off Bill Clinton type vibe. He was just another politician to me. I suppose his sudden change of heart on abortion and his morman faith bothered me some too. The guy just seemed fake.
