Democrats are fiercely loyal. They will follow their candidate right into the sea.

The sight or sound of a Republican brings automatic convulsion and delusion.

When the Dems knew McCain couldn't win he was the media darling and praised almost universally by Democrats. Now that he must act "Republican" to get elected, he is repulsive. It is incredibly void of intellectual integrity.

Quite frankly, if you vote Democrat in this election, you are proclaiming to the world that nothing matters to you but beating a Republican.

Taking a serious, intellectual look at both candidates and deciding that Barack Hussein Obama is the better choice as Commander-in-Chief and Chief Executive is patently absurd. Only someone blinded by an institutionalized hatred for the other party could come to such a conclusion.

John McCain has a lifetime of service to his country, even without the heroic story. His distinguished record contains many items that would make a Democrat proud. He has always been heralded, even by the perverse who rail against him now, as an independent maverick. It is a non-debatable fact that he has gone against the Republican establishment quite often. He has universally been respected for his views even if they were not popular with either party. He has the experience of not only heroic military service but also of being a major force in the Senate for decades. He has been in government through good times, bad times, peace time, and war time. He is as qualified as any non-executive candidate can be.

B. Hussein Obama has a lifetime of service to his calling too. Even without alluding to his numerous associations with socialists, communists, terrorists, racists, and just the run-of-the-mill America-hating crowd, he has dedicated his life to economic/social justice (code for Marxism for the masses). It is a non-debatable fact that B. Hussein Obama has burst onto the national scene with less than 150 days of Senatorial experience. He hasn't been known as a reformer or thorn in the side of the Washington establishment. He hasn't been known for anything. Ah, but he has been identified as an "articulate" black man who can inspire crowds by repeating the words hope and change over and over. There is absolutely nothing of substance that can be attributed to him that would lead to a rational thinker wanting him to preside over this great nation; the most powerful, prestigious position in the world. The idea of a man of his background even getting a campaign out of his Chicago neighborhood is Orwellian, indeed.

Yes, McCain is not the greatest candidate in history. But in this election, he is the only candidate remotely worthy.

Took a little literary license on that para and dang if it doesn't sound a hell of lot better.
The part about lies, you know, fits perfect with the bush admin....dontcha think....
