#4 agree! The current media bias reminds me of the run up to the war. I remember noticing how the media had pulled out all stops and was completely willing to shed any pretence of their objectivity in an effort to stop the war. They failed - but the damage was done to their reputation. Many Americans who were previously clueless became aware that their local news station was not to be trusted as it once was. With each election, each incident, they reveal themselves even more. Now they are at the point where people just get a good laugh out of their twisting, turning and desperate attempts to spin bad news into good. While it does get them votes and plays to a certain population, their credibility has been unrepairably damaged. It's called "good will" in the business world. They are pissing it away like drunks unable to make it to the pot. The end result is that people are disgusted and will not forget it once the night is over.

#5 I am still waiting for the recount headlines from Florida. I mean enough of them went down and counted the votes (about a dozen times) but I have yet to see an above the fold headline: "Bush Really Won!" I too can't see conservatives breaking ranks and voting for Donks. The ONLY way they can win is if we conservatives fail to vote and I will do my part.

#6 I'm not that worried. There's far too many people who may be ticked at the GOP, but no amount of mad will be enough to make me vote for America's true enemies.

Remember, voting for a democrat is an act of treason.

#9 Bottom line, we've got a first pass the post system. A vote for anything other than one of the big two is thrown away. But of course, those of you thinking of doing such a thing for symbolic purposes, "to send a message," already know that. But realize that voting for any other than the party you want to send a message to, is to vote for the other party. In 2004 key states went Republican by few enough votes that there were questions raised. It could just as easily have gone the other way, if enough people were or weren't sending messages. And if Kerry had indeed won, where would the War on Terror be now?

#10 Right, TW. Sending a message may help you feel good - well, better - but it's what elected Slick Willie in the first place. All those who voted for Ross; had they voted for Bush I ....

Use your head to vote, not your .... emotions.
