In plain, non-political language
If you support the war---Mc Cain
If you are against the war---Obama
If you are wealthy or rich---Mc Cain
If you are middle to lower class---Obama
If you feel as though Bush had the country headed in the right direction---Mc Cain
If you feel as though the country needs a complete overhaul---Obama
What did I miss?

This - If you want an empty suit that has no experience in Federal Gov issues - vote Barry Obama.
If you want a Preacher to be our next President - Vote for Barry Obama.
If you want to elect a teleprompter - vote for a freakin Teleprompter and spare us the BS sermons.
I think that covers it all.

First, let me just say the empty suit thing is redundant and getting old. What does it say about our country that "An empty suit" could even be in the running for president? Hell, if thats the case, maybe we should all have a run at it. The man has something to his credit to make it this far.
Secondly, I would like to see what can be done by someone who has "no experience in Fed. Gov as opposed to continue to see what the so called vets have been doing.
But as I said, if you feel the direction we have been going in for the past eight years is the correct one, Mc Cain is your guy.

honestly what this election comes down to is no different than any other that has taken place ....
a bunch of idiots that don't know the true facts and don't want to know the true facts that will go vote because some one is either demo, repub, female, male, black or white and that's the truth
sad but the truth

^^^^^^^^ Now that is something I missed.
People seemed shocked during the primaries whn I was undecided about who to vote for between Hilary and Obama. Yes, it would be a huge step to have the first black president. It would have been an equally huge step to have the first woman president.
But what difference does it make if I honestly believe the first black president, or first woman president is going to run the country to hell?
With either vote would it make me less black, or less of a woman?

What did I miss?
If you support surrendering sovreignty to the UN - vote Obama
If you support losing the war against Islamic Fascism - vote Obama
If you are against becoming rich - vote Obama
If you want higher taxes in the middle of tough economic times - vote Obama
If you want to pay even more for food and gas - vote Obama
If you want to pay more for your home energy usage - vote Obama
If you want socialism - vote Obama
If you want less freedom - vote Obama
If you feel that the country is fine as long as the Government gets the hell out of the way but that Washington is corrupt and a mess and needs to be cleaned up - vote McCain
Secondly, I would like to see what can be done by someone who has "no experience in Fed. Gov as opposed to continue to see what the so called vets have been doing.
We saw that with Jimmy Carter and it was a complete disaster, not just for the USA but for the global economy. Obama would be even worse. At least Jimmy Carter had run a state. Obama has run nothing of any significance

The only difference I see ............ is Obama would be a career politician, but he decided to skip a step, and actually learn something while he was/is an elected official. He has spent the entire term as Senator, running for President.
And the media is more interested in electing him than reporting the real facts about both candidates.
This should bring red flags, but most just want to pass it by.
I also find it amazing how the democrats scream Obama, and the Republicans scream USA.
And, if you think you will get the same for the next 8 years, you have not sat down and listened to the McCain agenda. And, I mean what he says when asked a blind question, not a prepared speech. Compare the two candidates, and the difference is startling. Or, at least it should be.

The thing that I find scary is comparing Palin to Obama...as if they're running for the same office. Difficult to sort out. Unless McCain's party is planning on him checking out before the end of his term.

If you support the war---Mc Cain
The most important power of the President is the command of armed forces, as commander-in-chief. To carry out this responsibility and duty the President is in full control of over four million executive branch military members including active duty personnel. If a candidate running for office, has minimal or lack there of, military experience and foreign relations on postivie levels, this person will surely lead our nation into the hands of death row and execute the commander-in-chief power to non-ally nations as a welcome mat, then open the door to mass U.S. destruction.
So tell me...what experiences does Obama have in the above responsibilites and duties that would tell us to trust his persuance in negotiations by the United Nations to keep us a strong, independant and powerful country?

He is nothing more than a rookie Senator, who is fresh out the Illinois state legislature.
Oh, except for the community organizer thingy. 
An thinks he is ready to be in charge of the most powerful country in the world.
( But, has not done one thing as a US Senator ) 
If anyone really thinks, that our world will look the same in 4-8 years, you are clearly delusional. Just think back to how things were 8 years ago, right before 9-11.
Not just the decisions, but why those decisions were made.
Now, here is one more thing to consider, if you can't keep your campaign promises, what type of decisions are you capable of making as President of the United States?
There are no do overs.
And Obama has claimed to have been on both sides of the decision to go to war.
Despite the fact he could not vote, and the fact .....hindsight is 20\20. So, what exactly do you take out of that?

blue eyes, Whenever Barry goes into his "I was against the war" act I figure that he went to Rev Wrights Church, stood up in the Pew and started hooting and hollering along with Rev Wright as he was screaming -
GOD
DAMN
AMERICA!
That is the best I can figure.

The democratic controlled congress, just adjourned for the rest of the year, Nancy Pelosi said , regarding the financial crisis " No one knows what to do ".,
Hows that for a ringing endorsement for re-election?
Good luck, you're on your own, we're leavin !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As said by Jay Leno. 
So sad, but soooooooo true.

The war is pretty much over and both candidates acknowledge this. They are differentiated by their strategy of withdrawing troops from Iraq.

While I'm sure the task is too mundane for most, and many choose to take the easy road of believing campiagning tactics, look at the voting record for each candidate. Not the "since my presidential campaign bid" voting record, but the real voting record. Drop back a couple or more years, to about 2006-2005 and check out how each candidate voted.
Look for it yourself, it check em out HERE for Mcain
and HERE for Obama.
Very interesting reading.
