I found this on the staunchly conservative web-site called The Federalist. Kind of an unusual piece for that particular venue:
THE LAST WORD
"For fiscal conservatives, the choice this election could hardly be more depressing. In the Republicans' corner is George W. Bush, who presides over the most bloated federal budget in US history. Bush's profligacy has left in tatters the traditional GOP claim to fiscal rectitude. He has uncomplainingly signed into law every pork-stuffed appropriations bill sent to him by Congress. He has flooded the government's books with red ink. And he has embraced new schemes for draining the Treasury, including the largest expansion of the welfare state in decades -- the prescription-drug entitlement, which will cost, over the next decade, more than half a trillion dollars. When, from the Democrats' corner, John F. Kerry excoriates Bush for 'three years of reckless spending and skyrocketing deficits' and declares that what America needs is 'a return to the fiscal discipline that brought record surpluses and the largest economic expansion since World War II,' he speaks nothing but the unadorned truth. But Candidate Kerry doesn't preach fiscal discipline very often, and there is no reason to believe that a President Kerry would practice it.... The 2004 presidential race pits a big-spending Republican Tweedledee against a big-spending Democratic Tweedledum. What's a fiscally responsible voter to do?" --Jeff Jacoby

Hey I would love to vote for Michael Badnarik for pres. He would be the right choice for me and my family. But we have to try and keep Kerry out so I must go with GW.
