Can we please end the ridiculous non-support threats?? Please!? |
|
Seriously people... Wake up. I'm sick and tired of hearing these bullshit threats that people are going to stay home on election day if <insert name here> is picked as our VP candidate. It's flat out ignorant.
Here, let me save you the suspense: The VP candidate will NOT completely and entirely match your own ideology. There, now that this is out of the way, whomever is picked for VP (even if it's John McCain) WILL be a far FAR better match for you than, say, I dunno, DICK CHENEY! (And if that's not the case, sorry, but you're on the wrong fucking board. Please go to www.freerepublic.com immediately.) If you really believe making a "statement" is important right now, pardon my language, but you need to wake the fuck up and look around at the decay and destruction of the country we love. If we were talking about a different opponent here... an opponent that we might not like, but could at least trust and respect, those would be far different circumstances. THEN it would be perfectly fine to make whatever statement you want. The President we currently have is a liar and a murderer, however. He does NOT have our country's best interests in mind. So if you believe for one moment that Gephardt/Clark/Edwards/Vilsack/even McCain would be more detrimental in a very weak VP position would be worse for our country than another four years of Bush, then do what you must. But I ask you for the sake of our country to wake up before it's too late.

3. I'ld vote for Kerry if he picked a steaming pile of dog shit as his Veep |
|
but seriously, let people vent for now. Once the convention is over and Kerry is officially the nominee, it all stops. Until then , it's viscious as hell, but that's party politics.

4. It took months to heal the wounds here from the primaries |
|
We need not reopen them, or bring about new ones. The fact that its June and Kerry is anywhere from a little ahead to a little behind shows that he is doing just fine in this campaign.

6. I'm voting for Kerry, period. |

No one can afford to stay home this election day. This may very well be the most CRUCIAL election in the history of our country. Everyone's, everyone's, future is at stake here! If you stay home you're letting Them win.
