The RNC party is notorious for fear mongering. I am a realist also. Sadly, I believe there will be an attack or attempted attack no matter who the next President is. I, for one, did not expect an attack before 7 to 9 years after 2001. 1993 was the last attack on American soil. These people (terrorists) are not as clever or as organized as people give them credit for. So, sorry, I can't credit Bush with keeping us safe. Have you been to our airports? The security is a joke. Although some US airports are better than others. Bush did not only NOT keep us any safer, his war in Iraq made us more hated and consequently more unsafe. McCain voted for this war, voted for the surge (the fact that it's working is another bit of misinformation) and I will guarantee you he will step it up and take us into a war with Iran. Now that's something you should fear.

As I stated I don't talk politics socially. But I have said to my husband (who did vote for Bush twice!) consider your vote wisely. If you vote Republican again, I don't want to hear any whining about the Economy, how bad your stocks are doing, etc. Nothing! Because you will be voting in 4 more years of the same.

McCain's "maverick" days are over. He's long sold out by voting with Bush 90% of the time.
Palin's resume is weedy, a 20 month Gov. that is under indictment in her own state, population 80 people per square mile. Ex-Mayor of a town of 8,000 that left the budget in tatters.

I prefer a President that uses diplomacy plus force. This is what Senator Obama will bring. McCain does not have the temperament or policies to be President. Much less Palin.

And by the way, has the RNC yet come up with an original idea or are they going to parrot the dems for the next 2 mos. My goodness, hasn't "change" suddenly become in vogue. That's not what the RNC was offering from the beginning. And in fact, by adopting or should I say stealing, this slogan, they are dissing their own party. Duh? :dontknow:
