I think that you're taking that stance because, from what I've read of your posts, foreign policy (namely with the Middle East) is what concerns you the most. I could be wrong in that assessment, I'm not putting any money on it, but I think it's fair to say that she's just a big government candidate. It seems like she's for war with Iran - something that will require big gov. She's for universal Pre-K, Universal Health Care, all that education and health to be provided by the government. She's pretty much for the (big) government redistributing wealth, something I just despise - not because I have money. I despise it because a.) I would like to make something of myself, b.) it's horrible for the country in the long-term, c.) it destroys any concepts of small government.

Not really. He lives in New York which, unless Rudy gets the Republican nomination, won't even be a state that the Republicans put up a fight for. Even if Rudy does get the nomination it will probably still be a Democrat stronghold, meaning that his vote for Democrats won't mean much.

Something about Obama just turns my stomach. He was like that 'perfect' kid in school, the teachers pet, I always hated the head boy.

I'm assuming that you must really like Bush - he's taken more hits than both Clintons put together. I'll say this much, at least she's center or right on *some* issues, but she's so far left on many issues, basically coming to a big... HUGE government and redistribution of wealth candidate.

1.) So what, a progressive? A Communist? I think that most Americans tend to lump them into a group, almost as much as you would Christian denominations.
2.) No debate here.
