I think it's time.........

That we talk strategy for the GE. The one candidate I don't want to see in a National Election is McCain. I think it's time for Democrats to start messing with the primaries and crossing over to vote anyone but McCain. McCain polls better than any Republican Candidate in the GE. I just can't get my head around the possibility that after 8 years of the Republicans and Bush fucking up the country............there's still the possibility of another 4 years of Repubs in the WH.

I know at this point I should not pay attention to any polls..........but head to head against McCain it doesn't look great for anyone.

After watching Repukes cross over in Atlanta to get rid of Cynthia McKinney, I have no problem crossing over in the primaries if it helps the Dems take back the WH.

2. You are so right.

President McCain is terrifying prospect, and I think a lot of Republicans will fall for the bullshit express. He's the worst case scenario in the GE.

On edit, I think we need a different approach than 'messing with the primaries'. We need to discredit McCain openly.
