I wish I could get excited
I wish I could get excited about any of the knuckleheads running to be the leader of the free world. All of the candidates, IMHO, are flawed, some more than others. I know I'm not going to find someone who agrees with me on all issues, probably not on many, because I'm all over the place (pro-life, anti-gun, pro-withdrawal from Iraq, anti-amnesty for illegal immigrants). So I look for someone who's judgment I trust. Here is my take on the field.
For the Elephants:
John McCain - I voted for him in the Michigan Primary in 2000. I disagree with him on several issues, but I trust his judgment. The past few years where he has been W's lap dog have turned me off, and the fact he is willing to have a US presence for 100 years, NO.
Mitt Romney - I don't know what it is, but I wouldn't buy a car from him. I feel he's slimier than a diner hamburger. NO.
Mike Huckabee - Change the constitution to match "God's teaching?" Approving of the Confederate flag? HELL NO.
Fred Thompson - If I wanted to vote for an actor from "Law & Order" it will be Sam Waterson. NO.
Rudy 9u11iani. - I didn't think he would put footage in a commercial. DOUBLE HELL NO.
Ron Paul - I have a soft spot for wackos. Ross Perot did get my vote in '92. I've grown up. NO.
For the Donkeys.
Hilary Clinton - She makes me really nervous. I think she and Bill will do and say and promise anything to get back into the White House. Did they leave something there. NO.
John Edwards - May be slimier than Romney. I wouldn't trust him to chase an ambulance. NO.
Barack Obama - I just don't know. I think he is reasonable, but I just don't know. Maybe.
For the record, I cast my absentee vote in the Michigan Democratic "Primary" and voted "Uncommitted." I knew I didn't like any Republicans, and didn't realize until I opened the ballot that Hilary was the only one on there.
If I have dissed your favorite, don't worry. Here is a list of people who I voted for to be President.
84 - Mondale; 88 - Dukakis; 92 - Perot; 96 - Dole; 00-Gore; 04-Kerry
Literally, what a bunch of losers. You may want to encourage me to support the person you do NOT want to win.
