In Reply to: What a disappointment - me/Kaydie

was disappointed in the whole event, largely because of the way it was done, the types of questions, the reiteration of stump speeches etc. BUT, to stay home and NOT vote is giving it to Obama. To vote for McCain is to vote with right economic/political/life issues. The oomph that was missing is not near as important as the substance of the man you should be choosing.
