Was I ever wrong!

On My post on Friday I Indicated No Need to vote for McCain was necessary, what a mistake! I received my sample California ballot yesterday afternoon & Guess what other than the Republican ticket, the only other " conservative?" ticket was the Libertarian ticket. Their are several Liberal Socialistic choices. So much for best laid plans.

So I am some what disgustedly back to voting the Republican ticket; this ticket is a must for any one in California who has any conservative ideals. It should be noted that McCain is only marginally better than Obama. Sara Palin is the only salvation to the Republican Party's ticket this year!

In my opinion the members of Government of this great country are totally corrupt & out of touch with American ideals & concepts as defined by our founding fathers. Congress is filed with Big Government advocates regardless of party affiliation! Gone is the concept of individual service in government as a duty to ones country; it has been replaced by a creature known as a "Professional Career Politician". These people are elitist to the fullest possible extent by necessity. Their survival depends upon us Citizens of this country accepting and believing this.

The most recent example of this Corruption & Incompetence is the Wall Street Bailout. Not that it happened ( it became necessary) but the cavalier manner in which it was conducted! Their are several congressional people who are guilty of malfeasance in office at the least, including one of our presidential candidates. Make no mistake Congress orchestrated in collusion with Wall Street's greed for the Banking & housing markets to collapse. Many wall street executives should be facing prison sentences rather than the gigantic financial rewards they have reaped. I'll make you a bet "IT WON"T HAPPEN".

Debates completed; So What?

The three debates are finished thank goodness. How anyone would expect deriving any detailed information from them "90 second soundbites" escapes me. People supporting Obama or McCain still are based upon these spectacles. I don't seriously believe any independent or undecided voters were swayed by these debates. You could characterize the performances this way Obama won on style & oratory talent & McCain at least held his own against a handsomer younger charismatic opponent. All this equals zero value.

About the only thing with any certainty to come out between these two candidates is Obama will raise taxes on all wage earners regardless of how highly paid they are. McCain will continue attempting to keep the existing tax rates in place but will fail in the effort.

I have stated in previous post McCain is a moderate Senator at best, on most things he is quite liberal. He does display a conservative nature on
things when it is a budget orientated item. Obama is a large Government Tax & Spend Bureaucrat with the most liberal position in the Senate today. What more do you need to know?

I live in California & am a registered Republican (this party's supposedly Conservative) so they garnered my support on that basis.I do not believe this is true any more. My support waivers; not that I would support the Democrat Party & their philosophy in any manner. Being a California resident allows me freedoms that others in closely contested States just do not have.

California will be a democrat State this year as usual. I can therefore vote for a Candidate from the Libertarian or Constitution Parties. You can argue this is a throw away vote, not so in California; it's going to the Democrats anyway. What this does is send a message to the Republican Party get back to your conservative base, or it's bye bye from me and many others for ever!
