346 more days?

On this morning's Bill Press radio show, the radio host mentioned that there were only 346 more days left until the end of the Bush administration. However, until then, we have to suffer through the campaigns of John McCain and Mike "holier than thou" Huckabee. Any Republican who believes that McCain, Huckabee, or some other Republican will grab the votes of Democrats, moderates, liberals, and independents, has been smoking some funny cigarettes.

>Both McCain and Huckabee are against a woman's right to choose.
> Huckabee wants to make the USA a Christian nation. Mr. Huckabee obviously has no respect for the Americans who are Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, other religions, or no religion.
> Both McCain and Huckabee want to load the Supreme Court with right wing judges who support businesses over the rights of the American workers.

Have we had enough? You bet.
We've suffered through "Attorneygate," the Abramoff Scandals, the Bob Ney scandal, the outing of a CIA agent, the Libby affair, the lies that started and continue the war in Iraq, our military sent to war without proper body armor, spying on American citizens without warrants, waterboarding, "heckuva job, Brownie," Karl Rove, unprecedented oil prices, Tom DeLay, the Duke Cunningham scandal, a vice president involved in a hunting accident, etc., etc.

McCain, Huckabee, or some other right wing presidential candidate will only bring us more of the same old policies and lies. We owe it to ourselves and our children to vote for change and vote Democratic. Sen. Hillary Clinton and Sen. Barack Obama are both well-qualified and deserve our respect, our support, and our votes.
