I have to say I'm not too concerned about the doom-sayers who claim that McCain and Palin are horrible right-wingers who will impose their right-wing ideology on the nation. We've had a number of right-wing people in government since Roe v. Wade, and not has been able to affect any significant restrictions on the choice of abortion. Right now, we're ruled by an absolute idiot and a pro-business megalomaniacal genious, and we're in trouble - but I don't think either McCain or Palin is an idiot or a megalomaniac. Most likely, if either McCain or Obama gets elected, there will be few and gradual changes, and nothing that is repulsive to the majority of the electorate. The extremists on both sides will squawk, but I don't think either McCain or Obama will do anything particularly horrible as president (and neither would Biden or Palin). They're all fair-minded people, not likely to try to impose a minority position on the nation.

It takes a real idiot like George W. Bush to get us in a screwed-up situation like the one we're in.

My patron saint, Alfred E. Neuman, says we have nothing to worry about this time around.

What, ME worry????
