#1 I'm not optimistic that the WOT will continue under BO should he be elected. I would anticipate something like how it was under Clinton; a half-hearted, feeble effort that led to 911.

#2 Barak Obama will make Bill Clinton look like Rambo.

#3 Barney Frank fired the first warning shot. BO is going to gut the military just like Bush I and Clinton did to give us the so called "peace dividend". The problem with downsize redux is that military still has not recovered. We are probably 6 years from rightsizing the Army, and 6-10 years with the Navy, 6-8 years with the Marines Corps, and who knows with the USAF. This assumes of course that the force shaping that is going on is not once again shaping us to fight the last war.

I am pessimistic. BO and the donks don't realize that what is happening in Paris, London and Amsterdam will happen here. I would not be surprised, with the immigrant floodgate opened, that BO actually oversee the Balkanization of our major cities in order to maintain order.

#4 I'd keep a level head til Wednesday. We can celebrate (or panic) then. I still have faith in teh American people to see through this empty suit's tissue of lies, terrorist friends, Aunt-Esther-wife, and marxist ideals. If he wins, I intend to be every bit the angry asshole opposition that the left has been, using any and all methods at my disposal to stop his agenda, his minions, and their hangers-ons.

#6 Frank...I am a Christian, but think we are going to get exactly the sort of government we deserve. The so called Republican leadership in Congress is responsible for this mess, and we The People elected them.

#7 my congressman is Duncan Hunter. I'll vote for his son, Duncan D. Hunter, without apology, as I think he'll be an excellent rep as well, and continue with his father's excellent priorities. You need to evaluate yours the same

#8 as far as getting the government we deserve, I'd ask: "who voted? Were they legal votes? How many campaign violations were committed, and by whom?". The tally may be legal and yet, tainted.

#9 Frank...I am in Alaska. And my point was that the Republican leadership...from immigration, to the $400B senior medicare drug gift to the bailout are an abject failure. It's a failure of leadership: Boehner, Blunt, etc. including POTUS.

Good for you on Hunter. But that's one District.

#10 and with the donks poised to establish a larger majority in the House, a Supermajority in the Senate, and the WH...Duncan Hunter, Jr's voice doesn't mean squat (no offense intended).

BO and the donks are going to open the floodgates of illegals.
