Interested in hearing from McCain voters.

This would be better placed under Americas Discussion. You would get a lot better response there.

Moderators, Please lock or delete this thread. It was not my intent to create a war...

I was simply looking for a bit of insight, but it looks like some can't put a lid on it, even when asked.

I was for McCain eight years ago when he was the maverick Republican with a conscience and integrity. A lot better then a reformed alcholic REMF rich boy playing with daddys rolidex. Now I worry he is too old. I watched how fast Reagon declined after he was shot along with other seniors I have been around when their own personel SHTF time came. The stress of the job today especially when you consider PO means the chance of him having a senior moment when it counts is very real.
On the other hand Obama has never been tested in any meaningful way. As smart as he is we have no clue how he will act under pressure. His liberal programs if inacted may well push us over the brink of economic collapse. The fact that he dosn't see the danger in the sum of the promises he has made makes him the more dangerous choice.
Of course Vemonts three electoral votes will go to Obama so all I can do is stock up on popcorn for the next four years.

Don't own a house & never will, so obviously have no reason to support Oby's expanded mortgage entitlements.

Strikingly, the subject of energy, especially liquid fuels, is almost completely absent from this discussion.

Does anyone think that McCain's "Drill here, drill now" has any substance whatsoever, given that rigs are in desperately short supply?

What about his lack of support (beyond lip service) for renewables?

I didn't use to like McCain but now that he's got the implant he seems okay. As long as they can neutralize the xenophobia and alzheimers I'm sure he'll be a more than adequate corporate puppet. I'd have more to say but diebold really needs these boxes programmed...

I really don’t like either party. I will vote for McCain because he is less likely to come up with a five year plan designed to make my life better. Social engineers scare the hell out of me. Every stab the government makes at utopia advances dystopia.

This presidential election, as they've all become, is no more than a boxing match between two advertising agencies. Taking the "choice" seriously seems rather laughable.

Where we're headed, who's president can make no difference.

Name one black leader who has actually led his people/constituency to prosperity. Name one. If there isn't a single country in Africa that anyone in the west would even consider moving to, why would we elect a black president. Just look at how good a job Dinkins did, or Nagin, or Kwame, or any of those double digit IQ affirmative action placements. Braindead liberals won't be happy until we're all living in mud huts rubbing sticks together.
