Well, that really was just a vote for the Bushco crowd last time.



No it was a vote for Nader. What is with Democrats saying that they didn't
so much lose to Bush as get screwed bby Nader. If the Dems could have gotten
a good strong candidate then they would have won the election. Instead they
choose these non-threatening kind of wussy little guys. Americans don't like
that. Americans like tough guys. As much of an Environmentalist as I am I
could not bring myself to vote for Kerry. He is too much of a giant "V" for
me. I don't think I am alone in this thinking. Democrats like that sort of
guy and so I will never be a Democrat.

What we really need to do is ditch the 2 party system...I say go back to
a Parliament...with a Prime minister rather than a President...gets rid
of the whole popular vite vs electoral college vote dillema and makes it
so that other opinions can be heard in government..also allows for the
common man to have a chance to stand for his cimmunity...we'd have to
ditch the House of Lords concept and keep the Senate intact but change
the way the House functions..

katy as much as I dissagree with your other points of view I am right here
with you on this one. I hate politicians mostly because they have the
current system so well rigged that anybody that has enough brains, moral
integrity and the guts to do anything right will never get elected. We need
some sort of a political revolution to get things back on track and into the
hands of the American people again.

I don't think I like this idea... you're right about the 2-party system...
we just need reasonable 3rd party candidates... Nader wasn't one, and in my
opinion it was a throw-away vote. I don't know if it would have made a
difference in the last pres. election, but it didn't help and look who we
got. I voted for Kerry/Edwards, but was never highly impressed with Kerry.
The lesser of two evils was my reasoning. However, now we have a chance to
vote for Hillary or McCain. I don't think Obama is quite ready yet...
another 8 years, then.... g

not as bed wench, Hillary just deosn't do it for me...I like listening
to er and think she is an intelligent person and on the private sector,
if we met I would probably like her..i do not like her politics,
though...I liked Joe Lieberman before they made a mess of him but this
country would never vote for a Jew for President...and at this point,
that would just inflame the Arabs to the point of total
uncontrol...Edwards is too much in the hands of money...the guy I really
liked won't run...Mark Warner...

She's very middle of the road these days and very pro-military.

I never liked Liberman, and I thought Gore made a mistake picking him as a
running mate. He's too much of a follower in his politics.

As opposed to Bush? As opposed to Lieberman who ran on Gore's liberal
ticket? Almost all politicians waffle.

Like I've said before, I am not a fan of GW Bish...Gore needed
Liebermann on his ticket becasue he (Gore) is so liberal that moderate
Dems needed something to convince them of the ticket...it wasn't enough
and look what happened..Gore is way, way too liberal....
