And how does Stevens have the 'nads to not step down?!!? He's up for re-election and says he won't take his name off of the ballot!

We could talk about Kennedy and others as well.

Eric, I would consider doing what you did as being a good friend. What is he doing now?

Am I a bad friend? I grew up with this guy and he knows how to work the system, he hasnt worked a day in his life..he was squeezing workers comp, getting dis-ability, selling his prescription every month for 1800.00...that m-fr was clearing more doe than you could imagine. well we were out one night and i wound up sitting at a table with a group of Workers comp people tipping a few...my friend was with me and he was out on the dance floor, I threw his name out there and it sparked one of the people's attention at the table, he replied with I know that name well. I said to him there he is out there doing the electric slide.....end of the free money, i feel guilty to this day about doing it and he doesnt know i did....but in my eyes it was a matter of principle....thats what kinda guy i am

Well said Gary!

Riley, McCain is rolling through Ohio, hopefully his running mate will stop by, these photoshop pictures keep popping up everywhere and thats all i can think about lol

2 Points for Marine Tech...but watch out for him on halloween!   LOL

On the lighter side of things...and I mean this without any political leanings or bias...

What if a mythical giant used a huge sword to cut the legs out from under our system...what would grow back?

I thought this was "fun" and an interesting discussion to follow. I earned a star and got to watch Nixon wake surf - all in one day.

If Nixon was on the Ballot he would have my vote, check him out shreddin' it up!

Just a discussion among friends. Nothing like those political or religious threads used to be over at MBO or TMC. Remember those Joel?

Ah, Joe, if only I had your wisdom and restraint I wouldn't have so recklessly contributed to this post. Another lesson learned I suppose. I suppose everyone that sat out on this thread, and still read it (all 700+ views) is far wiser than I. Good for you guys for not contributing.

Dedicated CorrectCraftfans,
Didnt anyone ever tell you not to wrestle with a pig, something about you both get dirty and he enjoys it. One way or another in 6 days the arguement will be over and four years from now both sides are going to be sure they were vindicated that either thier guy won and did a great job, or that the clown who beat thier guy screwed things up but good. Two things are for sure though no matter who wins, abortion will still be legal to some extent. and I will still have my guns to some extent. To change either would put a vocal and well funded minority into a rage and result in a turnover of those in power. I tend to ignore any candidates who want me to focus on either of these issues.

As for trying to change peoples political minds on a boat forum, I continue to think its not a great place to do so, not that it isnt a good goal but why not spend the effort on people who haven't already made up thier minds or visit a political forum.

Try not to take it personal or feel singled out it just ruins your enjoyment of a perfectly good boat forum, besides arguing with facts against beliefs is about as constructive as pointing out to 79Nautique a spelling error.

I bet homeless amputee Barbie Doll sites are talking election! LOL

Whichever side anyone is on, I do appreciate those who have the 'sand' to express their opinion. Political correctness will be the end of us all?!!?

If you're just sitting on the sidelines, why not pipe up and show your support for your candidate? If this thread moved even one person to vote for your candidate, or motivated one person who was not going to vote to vote, then why not chip in? This is the most important race in American history. Regardless of who you are, you should do everything in your power to make sure everyone who can does vote.

This is the most important race in American history.

Why do people keep saying that? Carter/Regan was far more important. Well I guess it's important because we are on the verge of electing Obama which is going to come with many surprises for many of his supporters.

Come Eric, McCain really needs your Ohio vote.

Is this off topic or did I post in the wrong place?
