    Nevermind

    Sorry everyone nothing to see here. I didn't know the no politics rule, and I apologize.

    For example, I don't want to vote for either of the main two, because I don't trust one and the other scares me. I don't know enough about one to really trust her judgement, and I don't care for the other because of women's issues, the way he is condescending of anyone in his way, and the thought of massive weapons in his power scares the hell out of me.

    I'm thinking of voting for the Libertarian. Its kind of middle of the road there, plus he seems to be a better pick than the two running first.


    It makes me think of Plato's Republic.
    If you were supposed to talk poiltics around here we would all be doing it.

    I hope youŽll find another forum or place where you can discuss your ideas about the election.

    As much fun as the Punch and Judy show has been to date, ther is a no politics rule on site. It just detracts to much from our fights over religion.
