    I don't care about what it may lead to, as I'm trying to get over the fact you agreed with me.

    But seriously there could be little dustups along the way. You're right on that.

    Headbutt is a Republican, Red. At least, I think he is.

    That is my favorite song of the year. Grammy Award?

    I'm in the middle leaning left. The GOP and their stance on social issues (and their rampant hypocrisy related to them too) pretty much steered me away from them. And the religious Pharisees and their rah rah for the GOP doesn't help either. I don't lean that far left, but like Charles Barkley says, the Republicans lost their damn minds, and lost me with them.

    At the federal level, it'll be a long time before I vote GOP. With the borderline socialists running things locally here, well, they don't exactly give Dems a good name. It's weird how different parties can be at the local and federal levels.

    What you do in your bed is your own business. I don't wanna know about it!

    Well then I guess your problem with McCain is the Iraq stuff.

    Because until Hill left the race we had a couple socialists and a liberal running for pres. I figure you would support the liberal before the socialist?

    The John McCain that ran in 2000 had my vote, though he was out of the race by the time my state voted in the primary.

    The John McCain that's running today is just like any other GOPer at the federal level. He's just a copycat of a failed presidency.

    I hardly think Obama is a socialist. And at least he isn't trying to let crossdressers pick and choose what bathrooms and locker rooms they use, and other such nonsense.

    Oh yes, he is hardly a socialist.

    Red, and I say this with all kindness, your grip on reality seems to be greased with pam and slipping rapidly into the abyss.

    Never had a grip on reality, but I'm sure you all know that by now.

    Please help me see the light. I want to like Obama, but everything I've heard makes me want to punch McCain's ticket more and more.

    The only thing that will stop me from voting McCain and going with PeeWee Herman as a write-in is if Huck is his VP. No ministers allowed in the White House. The line between religion and politics is blurred enough without that happening.
