2008 U.S. Presidential Election - Primaries

[mr_pikachu]

Here's my opinion on the whole "can Clinton win?" debate.

If Obama gets the nomination, I'm going to have to seriously consider whether I should cross party lines to vote for him. I really don't like McCain as the Republican nominee - he's more like a Democrat than a Republican in a lot of ways. Frankly, I have a feeling that he might screw up things just as badly as Obama. If, after closer examination of the two candidates, I still believe that, I'll vote for Barack. You see, if things are going to be equally bad no matter who wins, I'd rather have it on the record of a Democrat so that we'll have a strong case for getting an actual Republican in office next time.

If Clinton gets the nomination... I would take a dump in a paper bag, set it on fire, and vote for that flaming sack of shit over Hillary.

You've gotta love brutally honest opinions.

That is what alot of Republicans seem to be saying, but still there are two strong points that McCain has.

One: He would keep the Supreme Court leaning right, instead of left, meaning we would see less of the Supreme Court trying to legislate from the bench.

Second: While I doubt that Obama would pull the troops out of Iraq, and lose it. There is still a slight, very slight chance he would do so. Or he would try to run it his way instead of relying on General Petraus. Either way Obama in the White House could clusterfuck all of Iraq, as well as the rest of the region. Which is the last thing we need.
