Look (hopefully) at the FACTS and decide in this election the best we can. I have said before that my only problem with Obama is his church affiliation. He SAYS he never heard preacher Wright say those things. I heard him say them with my own ears. Now.....what I don't know is did Obama lie when he said he never heard Wright say those things or was he simply not in the church to hear them. I don't know. I would "assume" that since Wright was (by Obama's own words) like an old uncle, he DID at least know where he stood. That is a HUGE problem to me.
So your way of chosing for whom to vote is really no different than mine. I personally do not believe that McCain REALLY has all the "values" he claims. Remember they are all politicians.
After watching Obama's infomercial (sp?) last night, I tend to lean a bit more in his favor.......primarily because he stood on his own plans, whether they be truth or lies, and I did not hear him badmouth McCain one time. I hear nothing from McCain/Palin except trashing Obama. With that I am not impressed. Furthermore, all the posts on this board trashing Obama over and over and over and over...........with nothing FOR McCain of substance really turns me off.
So I will be voting AGAINST McCain.......which obviously means I'll check the box by Obama's name and vote for HOPE that he will not be as bad as McCain and his fellow rabid Republicans would have us believe.
I'll take the hope for change any day over voting for 4 more years of George W. Bush and since McCain brags that he has voted with the president over 90% of the time, more than any of his republican colleagues, why on earth would we think he would change anything. I also think that he is a warmonger with probably a lot of bitterness (not unjustified) for his 5 years as a POW. So I think given the opportunity, he will seek revenge whereever he can.
That's enough from me today...........better go and do something constructive until Tuesday.
