I'd really like to see a 3rd party candidate really have a chance, but until that day Republican will most always be the lesser of two evils in my book


Just asking for Adams' Lizard excerpt.

"No," said Ford, who by this time was a little more rational and coherent than he had been, having finally had the coffee forced down him, "nothing so simple. Nothing anything like to straightforward. On its world, the people are people. The leaders are lizards. The people hate the lizards and the lizards rule the people."

"Odd," said Arthur, "I thought you said it was a democracy."

"I did," said ford. "It is."

"So," said Arthur, hoping he wasn't sounding ridiculously obtuse, "why don't the people get rid of the lizards?"

"It honestly doesn't occur to them," said Ford. "They've all got the vote, so they all pretty much assume that the government they've voted in more or less approximates to the government they want."

"You mean they actually vote for the lizards?"

"Oh yes," said Ford with a shrug, "of course."

"But," said Arthur, going for the big one again, "why?"

"Because if they didn't vote for a lizard," said Ford, "the wrong lizard might get in. Got any gin?"
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

FuzDaddy, LOOK AT MASS ! Romney = BAD

CJ, She has name recognition . She is a great motivator, but she would serve the cause better by getting out support for a fresh face like Bachman, Cain, Perry, or Christie.

ROMNEY IS A F*CKING RINO !!!!

actually if you look at the result from the last election, obama got LOTS of votes from the moderates.  Thats not something she could do.

Good!  The last thing we need is middle of the road nothing.  Remember, middle of the road is where you find stinking bloated road kill.

Middle of the road moderates have no spine and no purpose in life.  They get elected because they piss off so few people.  But all that means is that they muddy the waters gladhanding and buying votes.
If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.

so I take it you want obama to win his second term?


Palin has zero chance of winning.  Rather you like it or not, the moderates are ALWAYS who elect people.
I always break all the clay pigeons,  some times its even with lead.

Not exactly TAB, it was not Moderates who elected either Washington or Lincoln.
"Moderate's" within the Republican party are why the Dems are getting away with wrecking the nation.
They rob the party of the guts to actually OPPOSE the communistic policies of the Traitor dems.

I would rather lose voting for something of substance that win voting for crap!

This nation was not formed by middle of the road.  We were forged by people with strong opinions that fought it out in closed doors meetings, in public and on the battle field.

Even today you can see who the winners are:  Are the abortion and gay Rights people moderate?  Hell no!  They are in your face loud and proud.  What has been the downfall of the NRA?  Compromise!  We have even been told by our opponents that we are too meek.

If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.

M58, you are mistaking "mouth pieces" for those that actually support them.  With out public support neight of those two groups would be anywhere. 

Just look at CAs last election.  we had a gay rights bill( ie marrage) It lost very badly. 

Being "loud and proud" blew up in thier face.  I know lots of gay couples, both "red" and "blue".  Every single one of them said something to the effect of "  " those idiots need to shut up, they are going to piss every one off and it will back fire on us".  Funny, they were 100% right.

Can't play because you left out the other parties.

Who will be the Libertarian, the Green, and the toga party candidates?


Don't forget the Guns & Dope Party either  ;D

If this is my choice, I'm voting for myself again.

If elected both sides of the house and senate will have to work together to get enough votes to override my veto stamp.  :)

People like TAB and FQ make me want to puke.
They have strong opinions but they will compromise every damn one of them.
I have principal and I will f*cking kill you or die before I compromise them.
They are the modern nutless "civilized male".
I'm a throw back to when MEN actually had balls.
