Phil,
Dobson is disgusted with the whole republican field and has talked 
about supporting a third party candidate, but, considering what that 
gave us in 1992, with Ross Perrow, I don't think that that's the 
anser either.  To be truthful, just like congress, a President 
doesn't really have much power.  What we need to keep in mind is the 
courts.  That's the real danger because the legal system can do, 
swiftly, what law makers either can't or won't. I agree with you that 
abortion stinks, but I believe that redefining marriage will do more 
damage than anything else that has ever been done in the history of 
this country because it smacks at our foundation. The courts are 
already whittling away at the definition of marriage and family.  All 
they need are a few well placed supreme court justices and the fight 
will be lost.  As much as we hate it, abortion has, as you said, cost 
fifty million lives and I don't believe that it will be going away 
soon.  The destruction done to the family as a whole will be even 
worse.  That's the main reason that I will probably hold my nose and 
vote.  I'm not voting for the person, they're all liars.  I'm voting 
for the court.
