If you're on the fence, please consider voting, not for McCain, but for a government that cannot unite against the people.
The Republicans held the majority in both houses from 1996 thru 2006... obviously six of those years included the Presidency as well. I'm not on the fence, I am voting, and not for McCain... but for a new administration that might impliment enough change to rectify some of the horrific mistakes of the past eight years.
I'm tired of being lied to by the White House and sustain hope that if elected, Barack Obama will restore some credibility to that office... and get the government's priorities straight.
The current Republican mantra is...
my opponant will raise your taxes a tactic to instill fear right at the heart of every voter and goes well with "The economy is fine" or "I will win the war" or "I know how to find Bin Laden and I'll get him" or "heckuva job Brownie" and a trillion dollars spent on an Iraq war.
