Here we go again, Dennis. I have no beef with those who vote their conscience, so long as they have weighed the consequences of allowing the Dems to regain the Excecutive.
Your scenario got US 8 years of Clintonistas and a church burned down with children in it. Even a "moderate" "globalist" (or whatever) Republican like President G.H.W. Bush would assuredly have set the Nanny State back a decade or two had he held the reigns in the Republican Revolution when we had a fired up Congress for the first time in decades. The Moron B.C. still takes credit for what the GOP single-handedly did when they faced him down by shutting off the tap for a few days. There was a great deal at stake there which was basically lost opportunity because many of US believed we had to attempt a third party coup.
Call me what any of you will, but I have become enough of a pragmatist to review the possible case scenarios and decide that there is no other *viable* option than to attempt to keep the Demoncrats out by voting Republican for President in 2004.
From critical judicial appointments, to completely socialized medicine, to national defense, to energy policy, to checking extreme environmentalism, to critical moral issues like the continuing plague of infanticide, there remain stark contrasts in party platforms.
For all I know and understand of what is terribly wrong in America, and as much as I would prefer a Constitutionalist, there is only one possible way to check the further disintegration and overthrow of the Republic at this moment in time, as incremental and ineffective as it seems.
I don't expect the amoral or the spiritually dead to understand or agree, and I am no one's judge, but I am here to say to any professing Christian that you are first going to personally participate in the soon coming judgments in completely different measure, you are going to be in shock as to how rapidly the righteous remains of America will be dismantled in the present circumstances, and if you live, you will rue the day you enabled blatant and declared wickedness to retake the Executive, should you sacrifice the present checks to opening the floodgates of hell (feeble and inadequate as they seem) on our Nation and People for some idealistic pipe dream.
Mrs. Kerry is a hard-core communistic One-Worlder, and John has the most liberal voting record in the Senate. Is that truly what you want?
Yea, yea, I've heard it all, from bring it on down then, to it's not "wasting" your vote, but I feel this one coming like an enemy in the night, friends, if we don't rally to maintain some continuity in the Executive Branch at this time. Something wicked this way comes.
I truly wish it were different than that, or that it wasn't about who I trust less, but it is, and that's that.
Count the cost, choose a side and step along...

that our vote is wasted. Well, here's a question: "What if" your vote WASN'T wasted? What if other candidates WERE considered viable by the sheeple masses? What if an alternative candidate (like Ron Paul for example) were actually in a position to gain the WH.
