Heres how I feel.

[peoli]

Am I don't care if you don't like it. I didn't vote for Bill Clinton in 1992, I wrote in Jerry Brown as a protest vote. I didn't like Bill Clinton. I thought he was dishonest and corrupt.

Now I have a choice. My choice. Ive been a democrat my whole life. I don't have to vote for Hillary Clinton if shes the nominee. I don't have to vote for someone who I think lies, who I believe is condescending, who I believe is surrounded by buffoons. I don't have to vote for new buffoons to replace old buffoons. There is no difference in replacing one dishonest candidate with another.

This year we have a choice to elect someone that can completely change the course of this nation. A leader that will be respected worldwide. This is a choice I have never had in my lifetime. We have never been this close before. I look at my seven year old and think about if this happens, if we get Barack Obama in there how fortunate he will be to part of this History.

The difference between Barack Obama and hillary Clinton is ENORMOUS. This is why we are fighting. There is a difference, an historic difference. Alot of Obama supporters know that we are on the verge of accomplishing something amazing. We fight because we don't want this to be taken from us, not again, not this time. We fight because we know the potential of what we have and we fucking deserve it.

Hillary Clinton has a (D) next to her name. But her politics are ever thing about the past that I despise and everything that I don't want for my son, for the image of this nation, for my America. Don't tell me that all democrats are the same, they are not. Its my vote and I can do what I want with it. If want to abstain I will. So fuck off.

P.S. I love you.

Honesty trumps in my opinion, too!

3. When your son is drafted into McCain's 100-year war

Don't forget to say, "You're welcome."

Lucky for you, I don't think you'll have to make the unfortunate choice to cast a de facto McCain vote, but still, the consequences would be much worse than casting a vote for Clinton.

6. Someone will be wiping McCains ass before my son is old enough to be drafted.

12. I'm sure that will come as great comfort to all the people who's children die before that

4. It is very difficult for some people to understand how deep the antagonism to Senator Clinton is

5. "This is a choice I have never had in my lifetime. "

i said this exact same thing not too long ago...

and this: "we fucking deserve it."

YES...yes we do :)

7. I know how you feel...

After working on Jerry Brown's campaign in 1992, I couldn't vote for Bill Clinton either. As an Obama supporter, I've had that same conversation about Hillary this year.

And then I keep hearing this little voice in my head that keeps reminding me "The Supreme Court... The Supreme Court... The Supreme Court" ... it's may be more important than my egoistic protest vote ... unless the Dem candidate is a shoe-in in my state... well, we'll see, November is still 7.5 months away and we don't know yet which candidate will be on the ballot.

9. If she wins it can only be by some backwards way.

In what honest way can she do it? I guess we would have to start there. If she won in an honest way. I dont see how she can.

8. It's how I felt about Bobby Kennedy

He is the only politician I can compare to the phenomenon that is Obama. I cannot put my finger on it, but you could just look at him and know that this was the person you wanted to lead your country into the future. When he was killed I was just an very young man, my first year of voting eligibility. I haven't seen this promise since, until now, until this year, until Obama. Fight for it!

[ScreamingMeemie]

10. And here's how I feel...

This year, for the very first time, I will concentrate on funding and supporting local Dems in their runs for office. It is my feeling that neither one of the candidates represents any change from the status quo... that we're stuck in a rut of politicians who will do absolutely nothing. In fact, they are practically interchangeable. It's my right to not fund a farce and I feel good about it.

I love you too.

11. haha! good for you! I wish you saw things differently.
