Re: Libertarians... There is this problem in that everything I've read or heard about the Libertarians is that they are an Economic Philosophy, trying to be a Political party. Can anybody name the other Economic Philosophy that became a political party?
Hillary is the old Liberal party leader. She is only interested in Population density, because that equates to Electors. Obama is a hint of change: he seems interested in everybody, not just the Big States. He actually seems to care about people, not just Population...of course, that means nothing other than he has a good management team.
It would appear that the challenge is to be Obama vs. McCain. That will make for a tightly fought election. Of course, the Liberal-Controlled Democratic party might just run Hillary, anyhow; no matter how well Obama does. That has happened before.
That will insure McCain's election. Hillary is OLD Liberal stuff, and people are getting tired of "old" Liberal stuff. They want someone new, and Obama is that person. Hillary will be four more years of Bill-and everyone but Hillary knows it.
In fact, listening to Hillary, one hears the Liberal Maxim "We're smarter than you, better than you; and we'll put you in jail (or take away your money) to prove it." Baby Aristocrats, every one.
Obama's different. How much is hard to tell; those speeches are tailored like an expensive suit...but he seems different; more like the old Democratic Party than the current one. This is good.
McCain is...odd. He votes like a Liberal Democrat on most things, and like a Conservative Republican on the rest. He's registered Republican, but he's voted Democrat more often than not. He's Anti-Gun, anti-Free Speech, and Anti-Abortion. I'm not sure what he's in favor of, other than more power to the President...but so are Hillary and Obama.
As far as I'm concerned, we need a "None of the Above" category in the Presidential race. A little fear makes Politicians more honest.
I'm sixty years old. I hope I live long enough to have someone I want to vote FOR, instead of just trying to find the least of the evils presented to me. I'm not holding my breath, though...
