Re: Barak Obama Clinches Democratic Nomination
 
I haven't decided who I will vote for yet! I've been a republican for 35 years, in fact I was the VP of the Young Republicans of our county back in the day.

I'm trying to get excited about McCain, but I can't so far!

I don't think many people can get excited about McCain but the alternative is disasterous for our country, our kids, and our grand kids.

I have never been one of those to whine about voting for the "lesser of evils". I have been enthusiastic about every Republican canidate except Bob Dole and now McCain.

However there is too much at stake with federal judicial appointments and the fact that the dems are going to pick up huge gains in the House and Senate this fall.

Even if McCain is a moderate Democrat vs. a liberal one that is better than the liberal one and someone is going to have to keep the huge new Democrat majority in both houses of Congress in check.

I'm just not sure if I feel entirely comfortable with the way the country has been going tax and foreign policy wise (plus many other "wises") in the last 8 years anyway. I am not a supporter of any candidate, but I tend to agree that lumping Obama with Jackson and Sharpton...two men who have not even really endorsed him over Hillary, is an example of the extremist views that are clouding the issues on both sides.

Forget Jackson and Sharpton for a moment. Obama alone has enough extremist views and connections to warrant never being President of the USA.
