There are enough concerned Gun Owners in this country to make a third party vote viable.
First let me say I am disgusted with my Republican Party. With President Bush I have many disagreements. ie. Immigration, Education, trying to reach acroos the isle to liberals etc.... Spending is out of control and government is larger then it needs to be and is becoming a large burden on the Actual Working People. You know those of us not getting a government handout and no I don't want a handout I want to keep more of what I work hard for.If you vote for anyone other than McCain the raw truth is you are voting to have the government grow even faster and see your rights diminish. Like it or not a vote for anyone other than McCain = a vote for Obama.Do I think McCain will reverse things from where they are now? Not likely but I see him as doing far less Damage than Obama. If you think you will feel better by voting for Paul, remember this thread and I'll ask you again in 2 years if Obama becomes our next President.Given no better option, I'll vote against Obama with who I think actually stands a chance of beating him, because even if the vote is 48% Obama, 47% McCain, 3% Barr, and only 2% Paul, we still get Obama, where that 2% might have actually made the difference and kept a socialist/communist out of office.

Karl, I'm sorry if you think I suggested you made that assertion, I did not. What I attempted to say is that the letter is full of lies and mis-statements but I did not try to attribute those to you.Melensdad,
I never made any assertion that any of the "Facts" in the letter were true or false.
Well I hope that is true at some point in the future, but I doubt if that is true today. I certainly have not seen any evidence that your statement is true. There is a lot of evidence to suggest that, of the total population of gun owners, that there is a huge amount of apathy in most of them. There is also a small, but growing group of gun owners, that is becoming more vocal and more organized.There are enough concerned Gun Owners in this country to make a third party vote viable.
A Vote for anyone but McCain is a Vote for OBama. I'm not thrilled with McCain but he's got to be better than Barry OBama

the only way to send a message is to vote for someone other than the two Idiots the mainstream parties have put forth.
No offense but I have to call Bullshite!
It's this defeatest attitude that got us in this situation in the first place.
Ya'll have already given up and now you are telling others that they should give up and just accept any candidate that the GOP hands us.
The choice between Odumba and McCain is like the choice between being dipped in a vat of Horse Sh!t or a vat of Cow sh!t.
Either way you've been dipped in Sh!t!

Actually Ralph Nader cost the Democrats the last election, he ran as Green Party and pulled enough liberal votes away that Bush won the election. I guess in real terms that means the election was not 'screwed up' because the better (more pro gun) candidate won. But make no mistake, 3rd party candidates can easily throw an election to one party or the other. In this election cycle it is more likely to hurt the GOP than the Democrats because both major party candidates are on the liberal end of the spectrum (one being ultra liberal, the other being moderately liberal).Independant voters usually vote for them anyways. There has only been one instance of third parties "screwing up" an election, The Bull Moose Party.
