Political Crap OT
Looking from the outside, it looks like the Democrats are beating
themselves with a stick. Slinging mud at each other,,,McCain must be chuckling at the ineptitude. The single biggest thing that is being demonstrated in primary after primary is that America is still fundamentally racist, There are numbers to support that contention, but you could also look at it the other way. Enough people have broken away from the pea- brained bigotry of our caveman ancestors that the U.S. could have a black President by this time next year. "Capt. JG" wrote: I don't see it that way. I think that given the record turnout, no matter who finally is the nominee, that person will be pretty much fully supported by the people who voted for the other person. Maybe, but more likely not. There are a lot of people who really really *hate* the Clintons, Republicans & Democrats alike. Remember, the U.S. has an official 2-party system, but each party is really a coalition similar to those cobbled together under the parliamentary system. Hillary & Obama each have their own constituencies, which do have a large overlap... but when one or the other finally wins, some members of the losers coalition will drop out. It's inevitable. The question is, how many and will they be PO'd enough to vote Republican (for President)? .... How anyone can seriously consider voting for McCain, given all that he is/stands for... continuing the war, lack of fiscal understanding, poor human rights outlook, not to mention his age, etc., is certainly beyond me. I could explain it, but you might not want to listen. I would certainly consider voting for McCain for President under many possible circumstances. Bloody Horvath wrote: .... I and my friends in the midwest would never consider voting for a Commander in Chief who doesn't have any military experience. Flunked high school civics, did you? Without civilian control & oversight of the military, you have a fascist dictatorship, not a democracy. However a lot of people would like exactly that... a "strong man" who would make the trains run on time, And did you consider our current President's "military experience" (getting drunk at the O-club and going AWOL, followed by the convenient loss of all his records) valuable when weighing your vote?
