That's why I'm voting for a moderate like Obama.
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

McCain being a moderate Republican would probably have in the lead in the polls had he run on that rather than trying to be a fake ultra conservative. No one wants Bush - but no one wants to pay more taxes than they already are or shell out social services for those who are not citizens or here legally.

McCain should have run as the man he truly is and picked Romney to placate the ultra conservatives in his party.

I am honestly on the fence - I thought I was for Obama, but see McCain as a man who is a leader and not very good at the campaigning thing.

I like Obama a lot - his tax plan during a time of recession is not a good mix.

Romney is actually more liberal than most people think. It's unfortunate that Republican candidates have to rattle their conservative sabers to get the nomination. And this Republican primary showed me personally how bigoted the religious right are. The best nominee didn't make it just because he was Mormon and Mike Huckabee and McCain are a couple of piece of shit back dealing master cocksmiths. Then poor Hilary got the shaft next.

Take it from someone who has lived under the Romney regime (as governor). He talks a good talk and looks great in a suit but when it comes to putting his plans in action, forget it. Once it was obvious he wouldn't be able to push his programs through without some compromise, he cut social service programs to the bone and then wandered off looking for something else to do (run for president). I'm grateful he's not the Republican candidate or even the running mate. Please don't ever be taken in by Mitt Romney's act.

Why Did the Chicken Cross the Road?

BARACK OBAMA: The chicken crossed the road because it was time for a change! The chicken wanted change!

JOHN MC CAIN: My friends, that chicken crossed the road because he recognized the need to engage in cooperation and dialogue with all the chickens on the other side of the road... ZZZZZzzzzzzzzz
SARAH PALIN: BECAUSE, PRAISE JESUS, I WAS GONNA SHOOT HIS SORRY LIBERAL BUTT OFF FOR BLOCKING MY VIEW OF RUSSIA !

HILLARY CLINTON: When I was First Lady, I personally helped that little chicken to cross the road. This experience makes me uniquely qualified to ensure right from Day One that every chicken in this country gets the chance it deserves to cross the road. But then, this really isn't about me.

GEORGE W. BUSH: We don't really care why the chicken crossed the road. We just want to know if the chicken is on our side of the road, or not. The chicken is either against us, or for us. There is no middle ground here.

DICK CHENEY: Where's my gun?

COLIN POWELL: Now to the left of the screen, you can clearly see the satellite image of the chicken crossing the road.

BILL CLINTON: I did not cross the road with that chicken. What is your definition of crossing?

AL GORE: I invented the chicken.

JOHN KERRY: Although I voted to let the chicken cross the road, I am now against it! It was the wrong road to cross, and I was misled about the chicken's intentions. I am not for it now, and will remain against it.

AL SHARPTON: Why are all the chickens white? We need some black chickens.

DR. PHIL: The problem we have here is that this chicken won't realize that he must first deal with the problem on this side of the road before it goes after the problem on the other side of the road. What we need to do is help him realize how stupid he's acting by not taking on his current problems before adding new problems.

OPRAH: Well, I understand that the chicken is having problems, which is why he wants to cross this road so bad. So instead of having the chicken learn from his mistakes and take falls, which is a part of life, I'm going to give this chicken a car so that he can just drive across the road and not live his life like the rest of the chickens.

ANDERSON COOPER, CNN: We have reason to believe there is a chicken, but we have not yet been allowed to have access to the other side of the road.

NANCY GRACE: That chicken crossed the road because he's guilty! You can see it in his eyes and the way he walks.

PAT BUCHANAN: To steal the job of a decent, hardworking American.

MARTHA STEWART: No one called me to warn me which way that chicken was going. I had a standing order at the Farmers Market to sell my eggs when the price dropped to a certain level. No little bird gave me any insider information.

DR SEUSS: Did the chicken cross the road? Did he cross it with a toad? Yes, the chicken crossed the road, but why it crossed I've not been told.

ERNEST HEMINGWAY: To die in the rain, alone.

JERRY FALWELL: Because the chicken was gay! Can't you people see the plain truth? That's why they call it the other side. Yes, my friends, that chicken is gay. And if you eat that chicken, you will become gay, too. I say we boycott all chickens until we sort out this abomination that the liberal media whitewashes with seemingly harmless phrases like the other side. That chicken should not be crossing the road. It's as plain and as simple as that.

GRANDPA: In my day we didn't ask why the chicken crossed the road. Somebody told us the chicken crossed the road, and that was good enough.

BARBARA WALTERS: Isn't that interesting? In a few moments, we will be listening to the chicken tell, for the first time, the heart warming story of how it experienced a serious case of molting, and went on to accomplish its lifelong dream of crossing the road.

ARISTOTLE: It is the nature of chickens to cross the road.

JOHN LENNON: Imagine all the chickens in the world crossing roads together, in peace.

BILL GATES: I have just released eChicken2008, which will not only cross roads, but will lay eggs, file your important documents, and balance your checkbook. Internet Explorer is an integral part of eChicken2008. This new platform is much more stable and will never crash.

ALBERT EINSTEIN: Did the chicken really cross the road, or did the road move beneath the chicken?

COLONEL SANDERS: Did I miss one?

I'd still take Romney or Clinton over McCain or Obama.

I don't think that's an option, unless a hell of a lot of people plan to write-in their votes.

Should we start that thread now? I wonder who will run against President Obama? Maybe a Palin/Joe the Plumber ticket?

I'm looking forward to the return of the car ads. You've got to put Mercury on your list. Gad.

What kind of referendum questions does everyone have? I get to vote on the decriminalization of marijuana as well as the phasing out of the state income tax. Ha!

high-speed passenger trains, farm animal cruelty, Subway to the Sea and a ban on gay marriage. And in my suburban town, a battle royale over downtown revitalization.
