If there's a God, please, not mc cain, not him, anyone but him...although, the other repubs are all equally as terrifying. Between mc cain and huckabee, I think I'll just get a lobotomy.

Oh God, what have we done to deserve this?.....oh.....yeah, I forgot.

2. Giuliani would definitely have been worse than bush.
McCain I'm not so sure. bush is so very bad in so many ways. It's a bar that's hard to get under.

5. Yikes!
Talk about a marriage made in hell. Do the same Republicans that hate McCain so much also hate Rudy, and vice versa? They both seem pretty unpopular in some circles.

4. McCain is better than Bush on most issues
He's particularly strong on issues of the environment, energy, ethics, and civil rights. That's why the wingnut right hates him.

Before anyone gets the vapors, note that I do not mean to imply he would be desirable as a president. Simply that he's a cut above the Idiot Bastard Son.

--p!

10. I think you're right.
But one of those clowns will run, romney, huckabee, all are certified insane. The pendulum is swinging left overall. I swear I'll be happy with whoever we end up with on the D side. Anyone but a republican is the motto.

12. Crazy johnny says we should stay there for a hundred years.
Of course, he'll be long forgotten by then, as will all the dead.

16. I watched the debate
last night and McCain damn near put me to sleep. He scares me tho because of an unknown to everybody. While I respect him for his service to this country, what I wonder is what damage was done to him while he was a POW. By that I mean what emotional or mental damage was done that even he does not know about but would only surface under severe stress. That and I just dont trust him is why he scares me.

18. To me
the loony one is Ron Paul. The rest are just repubs wanting to get into the White House at whatever cost it takes.
