In reply to the discussion: This is a really, deeply ugly ticket [View all]RKP5637
(67,086 posts)37. Yep, it is far worse than McCain and Palin. I agree, McCain had some
creditability and had done some good, although we did not agree with him on all things, I think he does have a conscience and in his way wanted to better America.
The Romney/Ryan ticket IMO is damn scary and if successful would certainly move forward on ending America as most of us have known it ... IMO a Romney/Ryan administration would simply callously discard most Americans as expendable.

More upfront about it than Bush/Cheney. And Bush seems honest compared to Romney.
