So, in this case Obama's presidency won't affect your taxes (even if he gets re-elected for 2nd term)Quote:

I'm curious. May I ask why not Obama?Quote:

In 8/9 years you will have a totally different viewpoint, especially if you are interested in the medical profession.Quote:

I know I do.
I think all you weenies who won't vote (or at least cast a ballot) should be fined for non-participation.
And McCain will be dead. :horror:Quote:

I think he was very foolish to continue on with that bat-shit crazy pastor of his, given his interest in politics. Even Oprah knew enough to get away. So yes, I guess I question his intelligence. I also worry he may be too much of a pacifist with regards to the middle east, and a bit too much of a socialist for my taste. (I am fiscally a little bit conservative, I suppose.) He also is very lacking in experience, although I suppose that could be considered a good thing.Quote:

On the other hand, he can't be all bad. Jesse Jackson hates him. :D
I would have likely voted for this ticket had Biden been the front man.
I hate that Palin is McCain's running mate, and that McCain has turned into a right-wing nut job since he began running. He was much more likeable when he was a moderate.
So yeah, I have too many reservations to choose one side or the other, and if I had to pay a fine to avoid choosing tweedle-dee or tweedle-dumb, I guess I would. What I really want is a moderate candidate.
I think it's true that both parties aren't perfect and have issues on different sides. But, since it's a two party system and in the end the choice will be only between these two evils (unfortunately) does anyone feel it's their duty to make sure only the lesser of the two evils gets in?
I know it's a pretty bad choice, just the consequences look a bit scary.
The consequences for electing either side are equally scary to me.
There will never be a moderate candidate.
Kerry could be considered a moderate candidate.
People want someone who's radical and will do something while in office.
Not me. I want a moderate. Once upon a time, people were largely moderate. I don't know what the hell happened.

Nope. This started before 9/11. How else did George get into office? Did anyone really not know he was a nut before they elected him?
I'm not a fan of Obama at all, he claims we need change, sure we need some to an extent but I feel it may be too radical and bordering a socialist mentallity...although Palin is as dumb as a rock. I voted McCain.
I personally think I should have voted for Obama because there's a high chance that guy is going to be assasinated. Then Biden would be in office. I would have voted Biden if he were running for president.
From what I read Obama is actually not as socialist as McCain ads would like people to believe. His strategies are a lot closer to Bill Clinton's centrist ideologies than socialist ones.Quote:

The real radical is McCain. He is the one who will give more of Bush. More economic problems, more US debt, more corruption, more US isolation from the rest of the world, more problems in the middle east (I don't for a second believe that "Bomb bomb bomb Iran" was a joke).
I'd rather pay taxes and live pretty well rather than pursue excessive wealth and be at risk of being ****ed up whenever something bad happens.
