listening to the 3 stooges supporters and krotch rot kucinich's numbskulls is giving me a headache
without biden, dodd, and richardson it really seems like the seriousness of what we face is gone. the three guys with real leadership and experience has really stripped this election down to a farce.
I'm honestly considering seeking asylum in another country at this point. norway has good beer, I'd fit in fine there. or maybe ireland or australia.

I'm completely uninspired by the political process right now
I have a lot of moderate republican friends also, since I live in Eastern Washington, who are in a similiar situation. they hate all their candidates. well, except the ron paul supporters. those guys are fucking rapid. but they can't stand any of them. I'm like, yeah I feel ya guys.
if whoever our nominee ends up with a good VP nominee, like Biden for instance, then I'd feel a bit better. likewise on getting some inkling on who their cabinet appointees would be. like if one of them had the balls to say, I'LL NOMINATE JOHN ABIZAID FOR SECRETARY OF DEFENSE!!!
I'd feel less shaky then. but otherwise, I'm dead serious about packing my stuff up and applying for citizenship to another country. its going to be very tough the next 4 years at least, and now isn't the time for empty leadership. now is the time for strength and decisiveness, coupled with tried and true leadership. its why people like joe biden are needed now. so if our nominee had a good cabinet and VP, then I might feel better. like, ok well we have some adults around to watch the children so it should be ok. but I dunno if any of them have the brains to do that.
the top three left are not impressing me at all, and kucinich is about as annoying as they come. I'd almost rather say I support Mike Gravel now than any of those 4.

can we say national primary with instant run-off voting? Joe would be in still, I'm pretty sure about that. One thing we need to fix, on our guy's behalf is the corporate / media / money axis. Unfortunately, most people are too attuned to their propoganda pipeline (aka TV) that they don't even know their neighbors, much less the candidates. Know (think they know) only what someone else told them to think. Turn that mind-numbing crap off, and get others to also. Corporate media is going to be the death of our democracy, via Goebbels-like spin. Milosevic had 30% approval, but control of the media. Sound familiar?

I felt like leaving the country when Bush got elected for a second term. Then I felt that way again when Joe dropped out of the presidential race. Our country is falling apart and going down the drain. Americans for the most part seem to be oblivious to the real issues our country faces. We are fast if not already past the point of no return.
Joe, I miss you! Keep fighting the good fight for us.
One thing that gives me hope is that I know Senator Biden will be working his heart out to push the agenda. He will fight with all he has for our country. With that in mind, I would like to be here to continue to support him. To let him know he is not alone in his battle. Someday he will be honored the way he should be for his great contribution to this nation. It is too bad, this should be his time.

I so relate! I'm not even going to participate in caucus.
Colorado used to be a primary state, but now we are caucus. I was excited to try to convince others to come to Joe's side, but now, I'll be at home that night. Why would I want to caucus for C/O/E? :cry:

I know, its a man's dream job besides owning an internet porn studio/brewery. but still a close second.
going to oktoberfest is a dream of mine. I genuinely love beer. its not just about drinking, its a passion and a hobby.
