Well it is rapidly coming down to a choice between Sen. Barrack Hussein Obama(d) and Sen. John Sidney McCain III (r).
I am a very optimistic person who strongly believes in the power of positive thinking and yet when I consider the possible political outcomes of the next presidential term I can't see the upside.
On the one hand we have the most liberal Democrat in the Senate a man who wants socialized medicine, a national ban on CCW, AWB II, greatly increased taxes, less control of illegal immigration and a host of other far left ideas. His campaign headquarters in Houston had Cuban flags and Che Guevara posters on the wall! That is as big an outrage as Hammer and Sickle or Nazi flags. Is this really happening or is it a Twilight Zone episode?
On the other hand we have one of the most liberal Republicans in the Senate, click here to read his afronts to conservatism. Its basically going to be a continuation of the Bush administration without the good points which were Alito, Roberts and a modest tax cut. We can expect no tax cuts and Kennedys and Souders for the court. If the Democrat congress passes 'resonable' gun control legislation we can expect McCain to sign it. Oh and don't forget amnesty for illegal immigrants.
Now call me a doom and gloomer if you like, but it looks like thats whats on our political horizon.
I know America has survived alot of unpleasantness in the past however for all of us who love liberty, small government and the ideals of our founders the future looks dark indeed.
