Trying to Find the Lesser of Two Evils

Every once in a while you find your self in a situation where there is no good choice. A Situation where the very best you can do is minimize the damage, cause there is no way to win. It seems like we are rushing headfirst at another one of those No-Win Choices. Two days ago 36 % of the voters in Florida decided that the best "Republican" Candidate for President was Senator John McCain. Lets ignore for the moment that 64% of the voters cast their ballot for one of his opponents. The "Win" in Florida makes Senator McCain the frontrunner in the race for the Republican nomination. It also gave him a large dose of momentum going into the Super Tuesday Primaries. The "Experts", "Pundits" and pollsters are now telling us that the odds are now stacked for Senator McCain to win the Nomination.

Let me ask you a few questions. If I tell you a candidate is for Amnesty for illegal aliens do you think Democrat or Republican? If I tell you a candidate opposed President Bush's tax cuts do you think Democrat or Republican? If I tell you a candidate wants to bring the Terrorists in Gitmo to the United States and give them every right guaranteed to Americans in our Constitution do you think Democrat or Republican? If I tell you a candidate has stated he would NOT appoint a conservative like Supreme Court Justice Sam Aledo because he is TOO Conservative do you think Democrat or Republican? If I tell you that the Ultra Liberal Editorial board of the New York Times has endorsed a candidate do you think Democrat or Republican? Guess what, all of these facts point to a single candidate, and it is not Barrack Obama. It is also Not Senator Hillary Clinton, Instead it is "Republican" Front runner Senator John McCain.

If Senator McCain gets the Republican nomination for President come November we will be asked to choose between an Ultra Liberal Democrat and a Republican that is more liberal than conservative. Once again for the sixth straight Presidential Election instead of choosing between two different visions of what is best for our country we will have to choose the lesser of two evils.
