How is 2004 shaping up?

At this point, I have no idea who to vote for. The biggest error in foreign policy has already been made, so it becomes a question of repairing the damage.

Who are the choices?

GWB- big spending, protectionist, big government Republican being handled by the militarist neo-con wing of the party and the so-called Christian Right. He got us into this mess, he is not an option.

Howard Dean- reputation for fiscal responsibility, opposed the war, good on 2nd amendment, for good or ill seems committed to cleaning up our mess in Iraq. I don't see much possibility of a good outcome in Iraq but if we (meaning the poor bastards in the armed forces) are supposed to take responsibility for our governments errors...

Dennis Kucinich- voted against the war, willing to pull the troops right out, given an uncooperative Republican Congress might be an option, gonna be a big spender given half a chance.

Bomber of Belgrade not an option, very willing to casually committ our troops for fuzzy reasons.

L Neil Smith- good... unelectable

Ron Paul- voted no, rocks, won't run


Who do you people want?
