23. Any one of them
will be the final nail in the coffin to our constitution, the environment, life as we used to know it, and America as a place anyone in their right mind would want to come to. I have a feeling many, many people will be fleeing (to where?) if any one of them become the next pres.

And I have a sick, horrid feeling that if HRC is our nominee, one of them will be. Clinton hatred among the radical regressives tops anything else you can imagine. We will lose not only the WH but our majorities in Congress. Life here will be unbearable, and it just blows my mind the Clintons don't see this.

I'm not saying I think Hillary would be a bad president. I don't. I'm just saying she won't be. No one should misunderestimate what a lightening rod she is. Many of the radical regressives who are sick of their own party, and would possibly stay home will be pouring out of the woodwork to vote against her.

My dad has long thought the Repub nom will be Huckabee. He's as scary as any of them, maybe even scarier because he has the ability to appear like a pretty decent guy, but he's as fringe regressive as Brownback. With either of them we get a theocracy.

From the Department of ‘No I’m Not Making This Up’...

Dr. Wiley S. Drake, Southern Baptist pastor from California and apparently second in command of the Southern Baptist Convention, has been caught sending out letters to the membership of the entire SBC on church stationary telling them that god wants them to vote for Mike Huckabee.

“Do what God tells you to do,” Drake continued. “I believe God has chosen Mike for such an hour, and I believe of all those running Mike Huckabee will listen to God.” On his radio show, Wiley elaborated on the theme: “Mike Huckabee is a son of God; he loves the Lord, and I believe, no matter what the constituents say or the Party says, he is a man of integrity who fears God, and in the finality of things will say, ‘Okay, God, what do you want me to do?’ And I believe he will listen to God.”
