116. Thing is, is that I can see the repubs setting Mc Cain up for a fall

They've stabbed him the back before. If this is all true, and corporations trump the political process, they might well just be as happy getting a pro-corporate dem in there from time to time to continue the illusion of choice. "See, it's not rigged, your guy won so shut up." And how many here are overlooking irregularities because their candidates are unharmed, perhaps benefited by them?

I see two candidates being set up for us to duly vote for. Neither are particularly liked, both are expendable. They will toy with Hillary from the deep pocketbook and they'll play senile yes-man Mc Cain for every sappy bit of dementia in his tiny little brain because he actually BELIEVES this shit (... if Huck squeaks in, they'll do the same, but I don't think Huck's gonna make it, 'cause they can't win with only the fundies voting for him, they need a more generally acceptable candidate.). I think we're screwn, ladies and gentlemen. I was excited about this election a year ago. Between the comatose congress and this nightmare of a primary season, I don't know what to say, I'm just about done with it.


Sorry about Edwards. Now we're down to the propaganda of either/or again. Always two choices. Cola A or Cola B. I suppose that makes it easier to market and sell. It is the buisness of corporations to sell and our society is being streamlined for the convienence of advertising.
