The logic/reasons employed by the Repubs don't have to make sense to the intelligent rational educated person. In fact, it's just a poll: How stupid/uninformed or horrendously rich are you? If you fit in either of these categories, vote McCain/Palin. Don't be concerned with facts, logic, etc. Now where's the fun in that! - Megatron
And therefore you shouldn't critisise McCain. Not because he is was a POW, or a war hero like Kerry. As a POW he could keep up his honour, his integrity. But this republicans abuse this old man and pressure him into a campaign, where he loses the very things he values most. Voting for McCain is a lack of mercy. But you know, there are sadists. McCain does everything he can to sabotage his campaign, but still they want to see him suffer and becoming president. Der Amerikaner ist die Orchidee unter den MenschenVolker Pispers
But then again, of the field they had this time last year, who could they have chosen ? None of the above was the answer then, it's still true.
And it's certainly true in the UK that at some point a party of government becomes tired and incapable of renewal. Largely because all of the positions of sufficient power to make change are stuffed with the people who are actually "the problem". It happened with the tories in the 90s, and it's happening with NuLab now. Seems like the republicans are facing this same crisis. The whole party nationally seems to have become too rotten to regenerate, it needs to be burnt down before re-growth can flourish. keep to the Fen Causeway
