Not Sure What Scares Me Worse!

HillaryCare? Obama's crappy foreign policy? Or a White House that includes McCain as President and Huckabee as Vice President!?

It's really starting to disgust me that there are SO many American's that have not done their research before voting. I'm also starting to realize why more and more young voters are headed toward the democratic candidates. I'm a Repulican. I've said from the very beginning that I haven't watched a lot of the Democratic debates or anything on the TV. Well, the other day I thought I'd watch a few and see what all the fuss was about. Why are young people so drawn to Hillary and Obama? Let me tell you, their platforms sound SO pretty! Heath care for everyone, no more of our beloved troops over seas.... it sounds so nice! What I see happening is that young people are hearing those things and saying, "This is fantastic! I'll vote for them!", instead of saying, "Wow, it sounds great. Now, I'm going to go research how they can make those things possible." To me, those things sound too good to be true, but apparently, the young voters in this country are just going to sit back and take their word for it!

On the subject of pulling our troops out of Iraq, I've said my piece on that before so I'm really not going to repeat a lot of that again. My biggest point....ITS DANGEROUS! Hey! If you'ld rather the terrorists come here again, by all means, just let me know so I have time to leave the country.

Do you young democratic voters know just how much taxes in this country are going to be raised when socialized medicine is put into play? Do you realize how few choices you are going to have regarding your own healthcare? Yes, it sounds great that for once everyone in the country would have heath care. But, what kind of health care? Another issue here is that providing heathcare to everyone, without having to do anything for it, is going to seriously decrease the drive in people to work hard for those jobs that DO provide heathcare to its' employees. Therefore, the number of people on government assistance, like welfare and food stamps, is going to increase. Also, employers wont feel the need to offer insurance anymore, which means those of us who DO pay their own way and bought insurance for our families, are no longer going to have the choices we have now. I LIKE my insurance people! If my choices are taken away from me, I'm going to be extremely angry!

Let's move on to last night's not so SUPER Tuesday results. All the candidates pretty much did well in the states they were expected to win in. I was very disapointed to see that Romney didn't take California. I suppose if we see a McCain/Huckabee ticket and by some miracle, they are able to beat the democrats and by golly, things don't go as these middle of the road Republicans thought they would go, all we can do is sit back and say, " I told you so!"

How about this idea. A Mitt/Huck indipendent ticket. I bet they could do it. I bet they are already thinking about it. But to stop that, I bet Mc picks one of them as his running mate. Just wait and see.
