I don't know of any GOP candidate who could come within 1000 miles of getting my vote. It's become an issue of trust, of perhaps more accurately, mistrust. It no longer matters what they say or where they claim to stand, they can't be trusted.
I may not agree with everything I hear coming from the Dems, but at least a left-of-center Whitehouse would be astronomically less likely to so carelessly toss the country into a tragic and pointless war.
For me, the failure of the current administration is not just how they have savaged my values, it is how they have betrayed their own.
Amen brother. Circumstance has granted me one small comfort...I wasn't able to vote in 2000--and so I didn't vote for Bush--and by '04 my eyes were open wide enough that again, and this time by choice, I didn't vote for Bush. My personal failure is that it took me far, far too long to begin seriously questioning the administration.
