I planned to vote for Obama because he wanted to shut down a 2 billion dollar a week war which I believe to be the current 900 pound gorilla. Now, however, its going to take more than a year, he is going to 'consult' with the military (who, obviously, love war and contracts and incompetence), troops will remain, etc (the qualifications for getting out continues to grow to where he and McCain are not that far apart). Obama is dead flat against Oil but wants the price to go down so we can use more.

They are both going to 'fix' health care. Obama is going to do it with government money and insurance companies and McCain is, I think, going to declare victory over health care. Kinda makes my heart beat even faster knowing we have such genius solutions to a problem that is not only an embarrassment but also means I will die quicker than somebody in northern Europe or even Canada due to "The Best Health Care System in the World".
Thank you, jgw. I couldn't have said it better.
My agony too.
And now we hear here in Georgia that Bob Barr (from Ga) my be polling as much as high as 8% which COULD be (yeah right) the percentage point advantage McCain has on Obama here.
Who am I going to vote for this time? The above could make me pause. I hope not though.
It won't be McCain. It probably won't be Obama.
I hope I will stay the course and vote for whoever (at the end of the day) best represents my beliefs. Cynthia McKinney or Ralph Nader may get my vote. As far as I can tell right now, they are the ones who's ideas best mirror mine.
