Actually, I did vote for Clinton in the primaries, and now I'll vote for Obama. A Hussein is still better than a McSame.

Re: What the hell is happening to this country?
There is a high degree of probability that BHO will become the next President. He is going into the the last 20+ days with a +6-8% margin. Statistically there would be a 2-3% margin of error (in either direction), so he has enough to turn the corner and get to 270. Actually he just needs to 269. A tie would be thrown to the house, where the dems. have enough votes ---
 
Alas, we are seeing the socialisation of this country. There is also a high degree of probability that he will be a one termer. An inexperienced socialist is going to "fix" a capitalist (actually it is a mixed economy with an emphesis on capitalism) economy that is the underpinning to the global economy.
 
It's like asking a ballerina to play center for the NY Rangers -- oh and please score the winning goal, while your at it.
 
BHO is going to get annihilated --- the US dollar will suffer an absolute loss of confidence in the world markets. --- The bailout is just propping up an already failed (and will continue to fail in the future because it is flawed -- badly) economic system.
 
Nothing will change, until the US moves from a fiat monetary system to a system backed by a precious metals standard. Congress needs to take back their Constitutional responsibility of minting coin and assigning/giving value to currency.
 
The Federal Reserve System is nothng more than a private for profit international corporate entity. It is not a government agency. The FRS is a blatant violation of Constitutional law.
 
Did you know there is only one private corporate agency on the entire planet that does not pay any federal or state tax? I'll give you one guess who it is ....
