		<description>&lt;p&gt;Please read the above again.  I am not saying McCain and Obama are plug replaceable. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am saying that Obama, Pelosi, and Reid are assholes.  They have violated The Constitution.  They have lied to and betrayed the Democratic Party and Country.  They constitute a despicable blivit (10# in 5# bag).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;House &amp; Senate majorities should be sufficient — without zerObama, the sock puppet.  The leverage is, “Here is the Congress.  Do something right for a change.  Come back in four years.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;PUMA — worth an estimated 7.2 million votes in a close election&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I do not know how “old” you are….doesn’t matter.  But you are dead wrong if you can interchange Obama and McCain…just start with the fact that Sen. Obama is not crazy/demented/cannot hold a thought in his head.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I am so glad you asked.  Are you happy with any of my above “Yes He Can” list?  Do you doubt that there will be solid, probably veto-proof, Democratic majorities in both The House and Senate?  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am sure you know that ALL power (Constitutional safeguards, Judicial selections, purse strings, use and support of the military, …, impeachment) flows from Congress.  We’ve already tried sugar with them, and what did we get?  Worse than nothing!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The violation of the Fourth Amendment is the clincher (do you need links to House &amp; Senate votes?).  Egregious in it’s own right, by rationale and precedent, it opens up the entire Constitution to similar attack.  Ooops!  Sorry Sirs/Madams.  I was acting under higher orders when I broke in and took your notes, books, firearms, children, etc.  And, nothing was out of the order, but we’ll just keep this stuff.  By the way, my boss and I are off the hook, unless you try to sue me.  Evidence?  What evidence?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Neither being Ayers nor Wright, my most effective tools are my voice (until they outlaw it — hmmm) and my vote (until they take it away — hmmm).  I’m out to save The Constitution and The Country.  Yeah, I’ve been a solid Democrat for over 35 years, and I am a Hillary-ista.  But, that has nothing to do with it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Endorsing this traitorous cabal (Obama, Dean, Pelosi, Reid, Hoyer, Axelrod, Goolsbee, Brazile, et al.) by giving them their duplicitous, slippery, ‘no heavy lifting’ candidate only gets us more of the same abuse.  This time their going to have the world’s biggest whip!  Don’t be delusional that this is all politics, and once in office zerObama will fix all of those f-ups.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It’s sharp stick in the eye time folks.  So, what I’ve got going for me is taking away my vote (down one), and voting for the opposition (down two).  With the polls running even (+/-), twenty percent of 18 million might just do the trick.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;PUMA&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Yes, that’s why I interrupted the thread — shouldn’t have, it was a happy, funny thread, and I apologize.  But I couldn’t stop thinking about that woman.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Got it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So McCain is going to be better in what ways?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And for what it’s worth, since it is Cindy’s money that built McCain’s career, yeah it matters a lot.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I’m not sure what the answer is, but does it matter if Cindy is not running?  Don’t be so touchy, C. Hardon Smith brought up the subject.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And, since lists seem to matter to you, Yes He Can:  pervert the primary campaigns; refuse to impeach or censure; support retroactive FISA immunity; abandon campaign and election reforms; reject universal or single payer healthcare; support the Class Action (UN)Fairness act; equivocate and deceive on deployment of troops; abandon marriage rights, women’s control of their own bodies, LGBT issues; repeatedly support the Patriot Act; fear and refuse to debate other candidates; adulate the failures RWR and GHWB at the expense WJC (and HRC); move right of and orthogonal to progressive principles.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;That is horrific. That anyone at 83 should feel they have to work, or should be financially obliged to work, says so much about what’s wrong with the US.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;    Sadly,&lt;br /&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;That’s great, Eg–you are meeting some interesting folks.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Have you meant any “serious people” who seem willing/able to repel the thugs’ tactics?&lt;/p&gt;</description>
