Poll coming.
I'm still undecided. Living in South Carolina, I ***MAY*** have the luxury of sending a protest vote to George Bush. NO WAY I'm voting for Kerry. Maybe Bush, but very possibly Constitution Party. |
|
I have never been able to understand the mindset that allows a person to be undecided in an election. In every election that I have ever voted in I know as soon as the candidates are announced who I will be voting for in primaries, and I sure as hell know that I will vote party line in the general. Who are these people? How can you not know what it is you want from elected officials?
|
|
don't be a tool gman. vote for bush. |
|
|
I know what I want. I don't know if George Bush is the man to make it happen. |
|
|
I'm undecided as to whether to stomp a hippie commy befor I vote Bush...or after.
Maybe both...still not sure. |
|
I am only voting for Bush, because he can lead us to victory over the terrorists where as Kerry cannot. Don't confuse that for support. I think Bush has betrayed me on every other issue, maybe with the exception of taxes (I'll decide that one when I find out whether or not I have to pay the alternative minimum tax next year).

WHAT'S THIS?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!? RikWriter and EricTheHun are going to take away your GOP Secret Decoder Ring now. |
|
|
I know from his lack of veto that he is not the man to make it happen for me, but in reality a vote for anybody but Bush is a vote for kerry. Bush has done the war mostly right, and kerry will fuck everything up. That is the most important issue right now. |

I am pretty damn confident I will be winning 5 bets come November 2004.
Sgtar15 PS 45 states and maybe Cali |
|
I agree. If it were not for the war, then I would be voting 3rd party. I would never under any circumstances consider voting for a Democrat. |
|||
|
WHat message is that?? That some people still throw their votes away? SGatr15 |
|

Voting third party in presidential elections is about the dumbest thing that you can do with your vote. It will be a very long time before we ever see a President who in not a Republican or a dem. Given the choice I think we can all agree that a Republican is better. Don't help the dems by voting third party.
If you want to send a message do it on local or state levels. That is where third parties could win. If you don't think that Federal officials pay attention to what is happening on the local level you are wrong. I would bet money that any senator or congressman who notices that his constituents are voting in conservative people at the local level will start to change his tone accordingly. |

|
|
|
No the message is the Republicans BETTER not consider me their lap dog. That I beelvie in the Constitution and to the extent they continue their departure from it, they WILL lose my vote. |
|
|
In PA, I do not have this luxury for the presidential election. Go Bush. For Senate, I have my choice of a way-leftie upstart congresscreature (Joe Hoeffel, who was/is my congressman ), or an almost-as-way-leftie RINO who will probably be a lame duck after this election and therefore free to do as he pleases (Arlen Specter). Third party may be my only option for Senate. |
|
|
Good job Gman. There is no vote that is thrown away. Here in Texas, all the elctoral votes will be for Bush. Therefore anything I do will have NO benefit or loss exept to poke the bean counters in the eye. I also told Rikwriter that because of republicans like him, that I could not support their party. So scratch one up for Kerry. Lying, back-stabbing, worthless, gold-digging , traitorous, ugly, stupid, John frikken Kerry. Ya hear that GW? You better get your shit straight and try to be a real republican instead of a socialist.
|
|
Actually you're a bald-faced liar hound and you know it. If I'd never been born, you'd still be a traitor to the cause you claim to support. |
|
|
Nope. Because g-man doesn't CONSTANTLY post trolling diatribes filled with lies cut-n-pasted from liberal sources and then claim to be voting for Bush. |
|
|
+1 |
|
|
Why rik, didn't I tell you that? I was thinking about that yesterday, when GW said he was tired of all the shit in the commercials. I actually had a moment of weakness and almost wanted to vote for him. But then I remembered you. Sorry GWB lost one vote just because of you. Now show me why I am a liar.
|
|
|
|
|
Naah... g-man just leads you on by chiming in with the latest and greatest GOP campfire song, pretending to be a hardore right wing Republican... and then fucks you over in the end with his no vote - which may as well be a vote for Kerry.
At least I will indeed vote for GWB despite my vocal protests of the things his administration has perpetrated.... including being soft on Mexican borders because his nephew is a rep in Mexico. Never once have I stated anything contrary to the fact that I will be voting for GWB. |
|
I'm still undecided. I could send a protest vote If I want because my state will definately be going to Kerry.
But my vote is based 100% on the sunset of the AWB. If it sunsets, I vote Bush, if it is renewed, I don't. I dont agree with Bush on everything but if we gain back some freedom under his administration he deserves my vote |
|
That's what I said. SGtar15 |
||
|
Definitely voting Bush and signed a petition to allow Nader on the ballot.
|
|
I already have. Sadly, you seem to be lying to yourself as well as to us. |
|
|
You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you just might find, you get what you need. Hey, that sounds like a song lyric. VOTE BUSH! |
||
|
+1. I voted "Still undecided but will report back after Nov 2". I can't vote for Kerry...and my Commander in Chief has made it very hard for me to vote for him. I have voted for "the lesser of two evils" my whole voting life.....and things have still gotten worse. Maybe I'll write in Alan Keyes. |
||
|
I disbelieve you. |
|
|
The Republicans could care less about your one vote or the way you feel. Heck they have more important things to worry than coddling one person. There are other groups in the election that care even less than the Republicans so you are screwed! BigDozer66 |
||
|
+1. Don't see how anyone with a conscience could vote for Bush given such vehement disagreement with him. Such a person would lack any core values. |
||
|
Then pass me some more ammo. |
|
|
I would like to hear SPECIFICALY from those people who won't vote for Bush.
Saying he is "socialist" or is an "idiot" etc. defies reason. What SPECIFICALY makes him a socialist, or an idiot. Give us a specific thing that he has done or not done that would cause you to not support him? |
|
Mexico has already been mentioned.
Airport security is another. We have recently found out that screeners are told not to interview more than two arabs. Billions of dollars in aid for ....every goddamn worthless piece of crap on earth. Stance on guns. Billions of dollars to Saudi Arabia. Osama Bin Laden Letting the 9/11 commision be the end-all on that situation And Rik, I asked for an example. |
|
That one puzzles me.
Its unfortunate, but if Bush did otherwise the Dems would ahve a freakin cow over it. Pick the hill you want to die on. The war on terror is larger than airport screening.
Preceeds Bush. Something that can't be fixed overnite. Not that he shouldn't try, but you can't blame him for ALL of it
Killed AWB renewal efforts. Grade: A-
We need oil. Necessary evil.
YOu seriously blame Bush for bin laden?? Ridiculous.
Beyond his control. He TRIED to not let it exist at all. He lost that effort. Can't blame him for what it became. Under his leadership, teh Repubs are fighting afforts to enact all its recommendations in lemming fashion. |
|||||||
|
I won't vote for Kerry but I may vote third party if the AWB doesn't die.
|
|
Gman,
Mexico, why are you puzzled? Vicente is pumping people across the border and getting money in return. Social security is being paid to mexicans I do not ever want to hear, what the dems would do in a situation. Over 3,000 people have already died on that altar. That was enough. The people would re-elect GW in a landslide if he closed the borders and got all of the illegals out of the country. Aid. I think he should do something and he is sending billions to Africa. Stance on guns is NOT constitutional We can get oil elsewhere. OGL...find him kill him. simple. I don't blame him for putting a slime ball on our payroll for years. And then fighting with the Muslims against the christians in Bosnia. That was someone else. (/11 commision. He should have investigated this event until we knew every rat that had ever lived in an apartment with a terrorist. Instead he did shit until the opposition forced him to wear that albatross. Which turned out nothing but shit and fluffy recommendations. |
|
Simple -- because I disagree with Kerry even more. |
|||
|
The results he achieves are VERY Constitutional. You hold out for someone with great rhetoric. I'll take a man of action and results any day
Really? Where? Not six months frm now, TODAY. Where do we get oil from TODAY other than SA, in quantites that could replace SA???
Really? Its that simple? You posess this knowledge of how simple it is to kill him, and you haven't shared it with the DoD??? Then you must be a traitor. Come on - head over to Afghanistan YOURSELF and get the job done. The poor helpless Prez, Sec of Defense and our special forces guys are just WAITING for you to finish the deal.
You do realize it WAS NOT his personal commission to accomplish whatever he wanted? You DO realize they were INVESTIGATING HIM, out to blame HIM for 9/11??? He TRIED to stop the 9-11 commission, he couldn't. And it wasn't his show to dictate what recommendations would come out of it. Come on man - your responses on oil, OBL and 9-11 Comm show a lack of gravitas. "Just get oil elsewhere....Just kill OBL...just tell the 9-11 Comm what they should report... |
||||
|
pffftttt no way he wins 45 the ABB factor is WAY to high. Is our bet included in that 5? p.s. Bush still has my vote but only because Kerry scares the shit out of me worse than Bush. |
|
|
I have never understood folks that just vote party line - I think they are mostly people who see beign in the right "club" (Dem or Rep) as more important than voting for the right guy. |
|
|
You do realize it WAS NOT his personal commission to accomplish whatever he wanted? Say what, he is in the big chair, that is his job You DO realize they were INVESTIGATING HIM, out to blame HIM for 9/11??? Here we go again, I do not care what the other side is doing, The party as a whole needs to shut up about the dems and the job. He TRIED to stop the 9-11 commission, he couldn't. And it wasn;t his show tro dictate what recommendations would come out of it. He should not have tried to stop them, he should have already had one going. Come on man - your responses on oil, OBL and 9-11 Comm show a lack of gravitas. "Just get oil elsewhere....Just kill OBL...just tell the 9-11 Comm what they should report... Your replies show that all we have from the republican party is excuses. Stop doing the puffy things to placate the dems. FUCK them. Do the right thing and the dems will dry up and blow away. That is what I want and what they need to do to rebuild the party. DO THE JOB. |
||||
|
Now you are gonna blame Bush for things that haven't even happenned yet??? Stuff like this COMPLETELY delegitimize your otherwise correct messsage. Its reads: HATE. And it turns poeple off to your otherwise valuable message. |
|
|
You won't even kill a cat and you expect us to believe you will take up arms against your countrymen?? Phhffftttt!!!!!!!! Sgatr15 |
||
|
Crap gman, That means that I said truthful junk and you decided to pick one thing out and go nanana. GWB is not a gunowners friend. That is history and future. That is why Kerry is not a good choice for Pres. WE know HIS past. GWB is the same way, we know that if the any ban comes up after the election, He will sign it.
|
|
Never met a feline guilty of treason, or working toward destroying America. But maybe you hang out with a different breed of cats. |
|
|
No you DO NOT know that. He KILLED AWB renewal this year. That's the fact. You refuse to give him credit for that, and LEAP AHEAD to next year to blame him for things that (1) have not happened, and (2) he's already shown he will NOT ALLOW to happen. That makes you look like you got nothing but hate. |
|
|
My vote's going for W, as long as he doesnt screw up and renew the AWB.
If that happens, I'll vote 3rd party for President. Kharn |
