McCain is a buck toothed old mummy with girl arms and he walks like a girl.

I don't know if I would go that far about Obama Randall, but I am leaning hard towards McCain as well.

Obama is a wonderful speaker much like Clinton was. He tells us exactly what we want to hear. The problem is his actions and his rhetoric are two completely different animals. In his limited time in the Senate he has strictly voted along party lines, while McCain has a history of voting across the lines. That is McCain's strongest point and that is Obama's weakness.

As far as new ideas each will be bringing.... Not much to comment on from either. Obama promises change yet doesn't propose much. If fact the limited proposals he has had I disagree with. McCain isn't all that far behind him with the lack of good ideas.

Honestly I think if Obama is elected we will be paying $8 for a gallon of gas by the end of 2012 and have the largest tax hike in the history of the country. If McCain wins I think it will be a little better with a larger deficit. Just one point of view.

Obama has as much experience as Lincoln did, so why is that a problem? Most of us wouldn't be here if it weren't for Abe and he wasn't trusted or liked very much in his day.

And with all this flak about character, hey where is the lookover on McCain's first marriage? Like this story in the L.A. times:

***********latimes****/news/nationworld/nation/la-na-divorce11-2008jul11,0,5924926,full.story

Carol Shepp was ill and still recovering from a bad accident, then John McCain gets an Arizona marriage certificate for Cindy while still Carol's husband, officially a month before the official divorce date. How is this possibly okay? Shouldn't someone at least be looking into this more?

Three years in the Senate. One of which running for President. A babe in the woods. I thought the Democratic primaries were the funniest thing Ive ever seen. But watching Democrats support this guy with a straight face leaves me gasping for air. It reminds me of the Monty Python black knight scene.

He’s not qualified.... Yes he is.

He hasn’t any experience.... That ok.

He hasn’t any economic military or diplomatic back round.... He speaks well.

Ron Paul for President. Atleast he's about change and not taking.

This year is going to be a tough decision. I'm going for McCain because the alternative is just another Jimmy Carter. He has poor no experience, has poor judgement, and is a Marxist now trying to run to the center. Scary!
