Fun with Politics (101)

After last night, Howard Dean’s blood pressure must have risen some more. What did the Pennsylvania Primary change? Well, nothing. Not that anybody expected that, but still; this is getting tiresome. Not only do we not have a nominee now, we most likely won’t have one after May 6 either, and with this mess going all the way to the Convention, McCain can watch the Democrats potentially self destroy.

The Washington Post claims that fewer Democratic voters are willing to vote for the ‘other candidate’ in the general election; instead, they will vote Republican or not vote at all.

I find that really hard to believe. When your candidate doesn’t win, you pick the next best thing. For Democrats, the next best thing is not McCain, as much as the Republican propaganda machine would like us to believe that. It’s fear mongering, nothing more, nothing less. They know we continue to be depressed about the last two elections, and hope we’ll go into a tailspin.

Remember when you were little, and you really wanted a particular piece of candy? But your mom said no, and you got so pissed, you said: ”Fine! Then I want nothing at all!”

Do you also remember the immense regret that set in immediately after you made that statement?

Electing McCain into the White House would be a mistake; electing him with the help of pissed off Democrats would be much, much worse.
