Who is the lessor evil?
If Ron Paul were not in the picture, which of the remaining candidates would you say we would be better off with?
Or should I say keep us alive the longest.
The point of my question is that if Clinton, Obama or McCain win the president seat what can we expect.

Remember ....
Voting for the "lesser of two evils" is STILL VOTING FOR EVIL. I'd rather feed my testicle to the dog (see comment below :).
If we must
I have to approach this question as one of those "push me into a corner, put a gun to my head, and make me choose which of my testicles we feed to the dog" type questions. Not an altogether pointless exercise as it does exercise the mind.
If I'm not writing in Dr Paul or voting for Christine Smith or Michael Peroutka, then...
It would have to be Hillary, because ---
She is easily the most abrasive of the three. Obama is generally perceived as a nice guy, kind of an amiable doofus, and while McKeynes is rather more irritable, he has a record of cooperating readily with socialists in the Senate. Methinks Hillary would get the least cooperation from the Congress because, like McCrazed, she's a bit of a jerk. Also, with a Democrat in the Oval Office, Republicans might remember that they OPPOSE big government, rather than support it as they have for most of this millennium so far.

I honestly do not feel as though any of the others offer viable solutions. They are all equally evil, just in different ways.
Obama would seek to destroy us financially in part by his global tax that will take nearly 1 trillion away from US and GIVE it to other people in the world. Such a nice thing for him to want to do during fragile economic times. It's one thing when politicians steal our money to give to other Americans, but now we have Obama wanting to steal our money and give it to non-Americans.
I would love to have "free" health care, but not at the expense of the severe damage it would do to our nation. This is what Clinton wants and is her plan to financially destroy the U.S. The U.S. is already bankrupt, we are financially insolvent. Any sort of national health care provided by the government would only become a huge bureaucratic mess and would simply speed along the economic meltdown of America.
John McCain seems to love war. He actually sang on stage "bomb iran bomb bomb iran" to the tune of the beach boys song Barbara Ann. McCain has also said in interviews that the American people don't care if we are in war for 100 years, 1000 year or 10000 years. Do any of the Americans reading this agree with McCain on that point? McCain also knows little to nothing about economics - and we NEED a President who understands economics at this point in time.
Sorry, there are really no "lesser" evils when the choices are between Obama, McCain and Clinton. They are all equally evil. Ron Paul is the only one left standing who gives me HOPE.
I would rather...
... a Magic 8-Ball be president than Obama/Hillary/McCain.

Write-in Ron Paul
The Lessor of Evil is not Lesser than the Evil they are dosing out!!
Playing Devils Advocate: Honestly if Paul never existed and I were not writing him in (which I am) I'd vote for Hillary.
Reason: Hillary cares more about her image, she is primarily standing up for herself and though she will make CFR decisions, her own image is more important than the CFR -- think Reagan.
Reason not Obama: Obama is wet behind the ears, even his speaking style is not his own -- he is borrowing from Jeremiah Wright and a poor MLK Jr schtick. He's been found wanting, he is like a good lap dog and will do whatever he's told and thus makes him the most dangerous.
Reason not McCain: He's a perforated colon, a prolapsed rectum, a fully rarerified idiot and will be another embarrasment -- he is Bush Jr-Jr and thus we would deserve whatever idiocy he gave us if we voted for him, at least with the others we could shrug our shoulders and act like "who knew." This horse is juicing and will still come in last!

I think the word you are looking for
is lesser. A "lessor" is a landlord. As in: "the federal reserve became the lessor to thousands of people last week by trading subprime debt for t-bills, thus driving those mortgage holders into serfdom."
None of the
so-called "major" candidates will receive a vote from me. If I am unable to vote for Dr. Paul, then my only other alternative would be the Libertarian Party candidate.
Write in Ballot, must get paper ballots back.
Absolutely NONE OF THE ABOVE!!
http:ronpauldonatetoday.blogspot.com/ and vote in the write in ballot poll that just began a few days back. Also, write congress at congress.org and tell them we want our paper ballots back, its easy and will only take a couple of minutes. I did!
