LOL! I've been wondering the exact same thing... Srsly, if Obama doesn't win this election, I am going to know something is up with the system...
the republicans are trying to lose they want all of this burden to be on the democrats they're thinking ahead...it's sinister and disgusting. and besides...they are essentially the exact same thing. there is basically no difference. just the stigma.
McCain has not convinced me, however the more I look at Obama, the more I don't think he is the right person for the job. I just don't see how his policies are going to work, they haven't for Illinois, and I don't see how they are going to work on a national level.
We have a socialist president right now. He just casts his socialist safety net toward the rich: Corporate welfare instead of individual or family welfare. Regressive tax codes instead of progressive tax codes. Cutting funding for community programs (saying churches can handle them just fine) in order to send a wink-and-nod to fat cats that it's OK for them to be reckless and corrupt, because the taxpayer will bail them out when they fail. It's all socialism (and a sort of soft class warfare, really), only with different priorities.
I'm not sure Obama can help, not sure about McCain either. I do know one thing, we sure as hell don't need palin. this is going to be another who am I voting against, I'm not voting against McCain, I'm voting against palin.
McCain is not a conservative. Big difference between today's neo-Trotskyite, neo-Bolshevik Republicans and someone who actually believes in the concept of limited government and the preservation of freedoms and civil liberties. John McCain is not one of those people. John McCain is a neo-fascist who believes in big government tyranny.
The two candidates are basically different sides of the same coin, as the American political system has morphed into something unrecognizable to students of either party platform. I don't want to get too deep, but I would almost say that the election is pointless if you're hoping for 'change'. We saw our so-called elected representatives vote for the 700 billion dollar bailout AGAINST the wishes of 85% of the country. Do you think the person that becomes the most powerful president in history in November is going to pay attention to anyone other than the corporations and banks that put them in the Oval Office? I am a libertarian, so my candidate won't be on the ballot anyways. McCain is no conservative, man...
Barak Obama is an intelligent man, right? So intelligent...he picked Joe Biden as his vice president, right? check this out... YouTube - Even Joe Biden does not believe in Barack Obama! Obama is a fool for picking Joe Biden for V.P. after Biden said Obama isn't ready to lead. And Joe Biden is an hypocrite and a fool for accepting the V.P. position. Joe Biden said he would be ''honored'' to be John McCain's V.P. Are you people paying attention? ''The blind leading the blind.''
