Why is not the goal to have an objective discussion of the issues of the day. We have two candidates promising tax cuts and spending when we have a Trillion dollar deficit coming. Is their any sanity in this mess?

Republicans are not heartless and have compassion.

I guess it never occurred to me that they were. I think IDEA was signed during a Rep. administration, by the way.

I have long argued that the goals of the right and the left are the same: they both want what they believe is the best for this country and its citizens. They just have different paths to those goals. Ripping each other up, refusing to listen, these are not answers to the disunity so prevalent right now.
We have lost respect for each other and it is destroying us.

I realize that no one here sees this as a possibility, but I think a lot of the independent vote is placing hope in Obama's ability to communicate and unite. We could be wrong. But if so, as with 8 years of Bush, we will survive.

THe presence of hope is evident on the right's side by the reaction to Sarah Palin, as puzzling to the left as OBama is the right. :) But it represents the same thing, it really does.
