 If I get one more anti-Obama bumper sticker on Facebook, I'm going to scream. When are people going to realize that Christians are NOT prophesied to be a block vote for McCain?

Hahaha, same here...I get a lot of PRObama stuff from other friends who, though they know I'm mildly conservative, figure I'm black so I must be voting for Obama. If they find out I wasn't originally voting for him I get the  face. Assumptions on both sides.

Anyone here disappointed at how conservatives have changed over the decades? Changed for the worse? Especially in the US, with so many people "jumping ship"? I'm glad that nothing too crazy has happened up here in Canada yet, things CAN CHANGE!
(I just wrote something in my blog about this)

Although I have talked about my displeasure with certain segments of my party, I think you're generalizing a bit too much, and confusing some issues. Rockefeller Republicans were more in favor of high taxes and high social spending programs, and I don't really see those ideas making any strong advancement within the party.
If anything, one can say that Bush shares some of the Rockefeller Republican ideals (strong military, less aversion to spending); that's been a source of criticism from many within the party. A Rockefeller Republican today would be sort of a mix of Lincoln Chafee and President Bush (the current one).
There have been changes in both parties over the past few decades, definitely. But, I don't agree with the way you've characterized the change.

I voted for the first time this past November and I voted for Obama. It was an easy decision, when we have a Republican candidate who knows nothing about economics and a running mate who is a creationist Bible thumper who went to six colleges before she could graduate and couldn't say what magazines and books she reads. I don't like Republican politicians in general, with only a few exceptions. I think Arnold Schwarzenegger is ok, he is a reasonable moderate and he has done good things for our infrastructure here in California and the environment. But I think I'll be voting Democrat 99% of the time.

I think and care as well, which is why I support Ralph Nader.

I love comments like this - it allows you to get in an unnecessary and untrue stereotype against the other party. Nicely done.
