Nope he is postioning himself kind of nauseatingly as a Bush lite..just what we needed! Any respect I once had for the old boy is starting to evaporate ..not that I had the slightest intention of voting for him to begin with.

Yeah, I totally remember when Guiliani was supposed to be this magnificent front runner, and it was sad to see him fail so badly with the results.

With that expressed, I am very skeptical of Obama because I do not trust very charismatic people as a rule. They tend to have a dark side they are covering. Like Clinton and Kennedy with their womanizing. Some people may not see that as a big deal but it is a character defect that can really weaken a man. I hope Obama proves to be of stronger character and can actually back up his words. Talk is cheap.

However, if we want more of the same, McCain is our man for sure. I for one DO NOT want more of the same. I don't want my cousins to continue going back to Iraq to serve.

Unless they are in Cape Cod and toilet hugging drunk on Lemon Drop martinis and singing a show tune or two while knee walking down the street

I never quite got why people would say that W was the anti-Christ reprehensible though he may be ..the anti -Christ is supposed to be charming,charasmatic articulate and intelligent none of which Smirky is IMO..so with those criteria and particularly if you are a Repub I can see how some people would think that of Obama though to me Christ and the anti-Christ are no more real than Santa Claus and the Easter bunny.
