Worried - Rigged Elections & the GOP

Although my hope is very high. I am worried. Maybe its a lingering effect being raised a catholic, I just remember the 2000 & 2004 Elections.
This election will come to down few things or should I say counties(precincts). Look up the Diebold connections with the GOP. I will use the term 'Rovian' in things to come. It is a reference to a tactic pioneered by Karl Rove(although some would argue it was Lee Atwater). Basically it is taking your opponents best issue or strategy & making it there weakness, along with your asset. See how McCain has pushed the change movement. I am disgusted by the middle grounds ability to flip flop. What would make you change your mind or decide in the upcoming days? Why wouldn't the state of our nation prove to you that the USA needs a new voice to run Washington?
Lets be worried, worried for the fact that a Democrat has screwed up more elections that any modern party. I worry that our inability to have any empathy toward our neighbor will end the America I was raised in, or raised to be believe in.

As I want to yell & scream, & beat it down to anyone who says, "Drill Now !" I must understand what got us in this position. I propose to listen. simply giving 2-5 minutes of my time the next time I encounter these beings of misalignment. I can smile & nod with time to allow the ego to mellow. When confronted with a simple questions, it is easier to deconstruct the opinion. MOST of the time, when ones guard is down, then the brain is allowed to think. Let these beings of misalignment follow there own thoughts. The old saying about getting more bees with honey then vinegar comes to mind.

Its time nation think !
