If My Guy is elected he will accomplish little if anything at all, but at least he will keep the Hoards Of Evil at bay, or maybe just make me feel good that My Side won this time.

Their Guy is the devil incarnate. If he is (re) elected he will drive the country into economic and moral ruin and cause the death of everything We hold dear. He doesn't understand what The Founders meant and hates The Constitution.

A fine example of modern political rhetoric:

Forgive me for being an ignorant foreigner, Mr. S., but shouldn't you have added somewhere in there: "By the way, I'm an open minded, fair and balanced independent and think both parties are full of crooks"?
