Christian fundamentalists (at least the ones that vote Republican) are not nearly as extreme as many of the special interests that are seen on the left. The Democratic party has too many over represented constituencies ie gays, NAACP, AFL-CIO, evironmentalists/hippies. Whether the Dems like it or not, they are forced to dance to the drum beat of their main source of money - the extreme left. There are like 67 million evangelicals in the U.S. You can't call a fifth of America 'extreme'.
How is the AFL-CIO an extremist group? Sure, they're a special interest group, but not extremist. Christian fundamentalists who seek to ram their version of Christianity down our throats, and fight wars so they can fulfill their warped views of biblical prophecy....that's extreme.
Here's where the libs just don't get it. Bush's approval rating being 30% DOES NOT MEAN THAT 70% THINK THE DEMS ARE BETTER! I don't like Bush, realize he's caused a lot of issues, and probably won't be voting for McCain, but I'd rather see McCain in office than Obama.

I'm not convinced that evangelical = fanatical Christian fundamentalist.

AFL-CIO is dying and illigitimate, their membership is dwindling by the day; unions serve so purpose anymore other than to protest, that is why I called them 'extreme', but not in the classical sense of thet word. Most Christians don't "ram their version of Christianity down people's throats." I think you're talking about snake worshipping Baptists in rural Arkansas. They are fringe extremists, and their numbers are so small they don't matter.
it's the media putting him down and everything he does and says. this is evident when speaking to the average (lib) joe and all they can repeat is what they hear on the six o'clock news.
btw, if mccain had made as many gaffs as obama has in recent months, the media and all the lefties would be saying he is senile but he gets a pass all the time...Bush should be so lucky...
Hey, but judge it all for yourself...don't take the spins on things, take facts for themselves. Look at what Bush promised and look at the state of the nation, and by gosh, don't judge what things are like because you have a good job or pension. Look at what is happening to the Middle Class, and don't let Limbaugh or anyone influence you.
I agree, but it seems the republican party has been hijacked by extreme special interests as well....namely far-right protestant Christian fundamentalists, and big business.
My only choice is to write-in "none of the above."
Don't forget to add "Neocon" to that...they aren't true conservatives, no way...they want to spend your children's future.
Because the Dems can't scrape together good candidates...
2000 - Al Gore - His head was in the clouds but his feet lost touch with the ground
2004 - John Kerry - Douche Bag w/ foot always in mouth
2008 - Barak Obama - Far left wing - partisan - divisive
Most Americans are moderate or just right of center. The Democrat party has been hijacked by extreme special interest groups ie gays, hollywood, unions, actvists...
Barack Obama is not "far left wing." That's absurd. Even the writers of The Economist consider him to be a rather moderate liberal, at best.
