I disagree.

The leaders of those countries, how do they live?

Not nearly as meager as you describe.

Hence, if the leaders are living better than the common man?

How is everything equal?

I am as patriotic as the next guy. However, I am going to set aside all the "Huzzah America".

Fact of the matter is, socialism sounds better. It sounds fair and it sound utopian.

However, it does not work.

Human nature is not perfect or utopian.

Socialism does not factor in the dark side of human nature, such as greed. Capitilism does.

In a Capatilist society, the citizens can be lead by their own wordly desires and pursue their wants.

In a Socialist society, the normal citizens can not. However, the country's leaders; the Mao Zedongs, the Stalins and the Castros can.

Capitilist country's leaders do the same. They follow the dollar to whatever destination it may lead them. However, they are bound by democratic and capitilist restraints.

Socialist society enable the people by promoting corruption.

If a socialist society could be run devinely, then perhaps it could work. But it won't...after all we are all human.

Well, hell....how about I make it simple for you.

All other circumstances aside, McCain's wife did NOT have CANCER when he cheated on her.

Adultry is wrong. Always.

But it takes a very callous man to betray his wife during a time in which she is toiling for her own existence.

Mississippi is a Southern state with down home values. The Republicans have out powered the Democrats in recent history and, in all likelihood, will continue to do so for years to come.

The coat-tail effect is a powerful ally to have on one's side. However, as polls show, Barrack Obama is not a powerful enough candidate to propel Ronnie Musgrove into office by default.

At the same time, Wicker is not so closely affiliated to Bush so that he immediately loses the post.

Both of the candidates have similar ideals and political stances. Musgrove is not a "California" liberal. He is of a different breed. As Governor, he supported the presence of the Ten Commandments at the capital.

Not only that, but he signed an order which made all public schools have the phrase " In God We Trust" displayed in every classroom, as well as in the school auditoriums and cafeterias.

Such concern for the Christianity's views is not typical for a member of the far left.

In 2000, Musgrove signed a bill which banned homosexual couples, of either gender, from adopting children.

Again, not something typical of the far left.

Wicker, on the other hand, resembles the stereotypical Republican. He is against a National Health care system and is an advocate for drilling in the United States, as he has stressed the importance of domestic oil on numerous occasions.

As it stands, the voters must choose which candidate earns their support, not by the candidates political stances, but rather on character.

As a voter, you must decide based on which candidate appeals to you the most as a person.

Let's face it, Musgrove is running as a Democrat, but this Mississippi Senate raced is basically between two Republicans.

Wicker is an honorable man who served in the Air force for thirty years. He has been in politics for a good amount of time, but only recently has he earned a high profile post.

Musgrove is a hardworking, self made man. Which much political experience. He is an ex-Governor and knows his ways around national politics.

I would say this race is a toss up; however, just by playing the odds, I'd give this race to the incumbent. Although, not by much.
