Axxon, this year's election is interesting but not necessarily for a voter like me. There are only three choices: A, B or neither A or B. Several things about that:
- there is not a viable C or D candidate to vote for
- a truer choice for some would be A (or B) with qualifiers but since we don't do that, not much we can do except go along with either or neither
- the best chance that McCain has in winning comes down to turnout
- the simple way for Obama to win is to keep possible and likely McCain from voting for McCain, therefore it becomes a strategy of turning voters off from McCain (which we've seen here already)
- I don't think the reverse is true since the turnout for Obama will be high regardless (for many reasons)
- I am neither a supporter of Obama or McCain but interested in the race, how does that come across to those supporters of A or B?
- I have said this before but I do like Obama a little better than McCain - but NOT with a Democratic Congress
- as a libertarian, the worse scenario would be Dem Congress and Executive, just like we saw with a Rep Congress and Executive
- so, does that make me a Rep in libertarian clothing when neither candidate, nor Congress, would be libertarian-minded and can only hope for gridlock?
