Default Energized and Excited Republican.

Energized by the fact that for the first time in my whole entire lifetime of voting in presidential races, I really feel like my vote will actually count for something.

In previous years, in presidential primaries, things were always decided by the time I got to vote. In presidential elections, usually there was no chance of my vote counting for a lick, and in some years, the race was unofficially called before I even got to the polls.

So, McCain, look out you little turd. This right wing hate filled ******* is all fired up to beat your ass down on Tuesday.

Rasmussen has the race at 38-38 McCain vs Romney.

Anyone else feeling this, or is it just me?

I'd be more energized if I found someone that I actually wanted to vote for.

I'd rather have Romney than McCain.

I have the utmost respect for him but no way in hell can I trust him with our Armed Froces.

lifelong Republican, been trying to get spirits up.

I am desperately praying for Romney to win. McCain is a horrible candidate and spokesman for the Republicans. Huckabee is mucking this up.

Romney thinks it is 1984. McCain is old. and Huckabee is a kook.


Great choices you have there Republicans.

Well, that's all pretty much true. But on the other side it's a newbie socialist vs a shrill socialist.

As usual, it will be a Giant Douche vs a Turd Sandwich in the finals, but that wasn't my point.



My point is not that I'm excited by a candidate (unless you count excited to beat down the Big Mac attack). I'm just excited that my vote may actually have some meaning in the tallies for a change. I feel like I should get a purple finger tip at the polls tomorrow.

Anyway tomorrow is just about trying to limit the size and texture of the turd sandwich we will have to bite into come November.

BIG Joe. That explains it. No wonder you are a Mitt Romney supporter. You also think it is 1984.

Come on Ges, everyone knows that trying to introduce affordable health care for everyone in our price gouging "well, we pretend it isnt really regulated, but it so overtly is, its disgusting" free market health care system instantly makes you a socialist.

oddly enough they are very close to Mussolini and the Italian Fascists though in terms of government control of services
