Watch all 7:20 of it. His closing line says it all. Then come back and tell me in good conscience that you would rather stay home and not vote, or vote for a 3rd party candidate, rather than vote for a Republican who isn't ideologically pure enough.

I wonder how much it would cost to run a seven minute ad in prime-time TV the night before the election...

LOTS!
The problem with that is that MaoBama could afford it while the Republican Candidates cannot.

That's ok... I wouldn't mind the democrats paying to air that video.

...the important term is "replace him"...if we don't get him out, all is lost...a skunk makes a bad guest in your sleeping bag...but compared to a rattlesnake, it ain't so bad...

At the moment, it seems the only choice we will have is between the skunk or the snake. The question is, are we willing to allow someone else to determine which will share our sleeping bag?

...there is no chance that in this presidential election ANYONE except the GOP's pick can come CLOSE to beating obummer...so, unless you own an island that you can set your pick up on and move to...you're going to either vote FOR obummer...or FOR whoever the GOP puts up to run...the emotions here don't change the facts...

With that thought in mind. Let's get back together in November. We can discuss which bite we would rather have endured.

I will reject your
false dichotomy and choose not to get bit.
You make your choice. But be warned.
If you help either bite me, I will consider you their willing accomplice.
Pot calling the kettle black?

That's a good description for Romney supporters who attack Obamacare.

...OK, I'll give you that much...neither have good healthcare plans...but if R. does get the GOP nomination...it's not about healthcare...it's about getting rid of obummer so that America has a chance to heal...through wise choices in future elections...if we don't stop the bleeding, no need to schedule reconstructive surgeries...

True. We need to stop the bleeding. Slowing it 5% won't make a difference in the long run.

Those who refused to go vote for Senator McCain helped ensure that we got stuck with the man currently occupying the White House...once again, McCain was not my first choice, but he would have been better than what we have now. (Of course, I only believe that because I'm dogmatic, bless my heart.)

Too late. It won’t matter who is elected or reelected. There will be a depression (not recession) and Washington can do absolutely nothing to stop it. There are too many things wrong and the “economic stimulus” just postponed the drop. Both parties are to blame and people have just sat around and blamed the other party instead of working together to solve the problem. The time to do something is long past and a number of administrations ago. I believe the U.S. will survive the depression and even be better for it.

Do you believe that the U.S. will be better for the loss of firearms rights that will certainly follow an Obama reelection?
