Pick your evil/crazy
2007-11-12 23:06Prompted by pompe, I ask my readers: given a choice between four more years of the Republicans or (somehow) Libertarian rule, how would you vote? I think I'd take my chances with the Libertarians.
On the one hand, the Republicans seem unlikely to actually dismantle government. They've had their golden opportunity and shown that in Congress at least they don't really want to -- though Bush has done his best to pick at and mismanage it. On the other hand: torture, creationism, deficit spending, and war.
I'd worry about the environment and sudden shocks to the economy, but at the moment feel like taking a chance to avoid further slow decline and decay would be worth it.
