Do some research.
I think I care about this too much. But I'm tired of seeing shit bashing Obama when he's clearly the lesser of the two evils. No experience? Well.. I'm sure he's got more experience than that woman McCain picked to run with. BUT, she has hook ups to the oil in Alaska that the government has been wanting to get their hands on for so long now, but can't because of environmental issues and whatever else. Coincidence? I don't think so.
I just think it's sad that people rely on stupid campaign ads to make their decisions. Or because mommy and daddy are a republican, democrat, whatever, they think they have to be, too.
All I know is that when I watch an interview with McCain and he is nervous, can't make eye contact and avoids questions, that doesn't help me to believe a word that he says. Especially when from interview to interview he continually contradicts himself and changes his views.
Whether or not Obama has as much "experience" as McCain, I'd much rather go with the unknown and have there be a shimmer of hope, than continue with the same and run this country into more of a hole.

In the next 36 hours, the McCain campaign will be pouring millions of dollars -- if not tens of millions -- into negative attack ads against Barack Obama.
Before John McCain accepts the Republican nomination on Thursday, his campaign has to spend every last dollar of primary funds they've raked in from Washington lobbyists and special interest PACs.
Just yesterday, they aired a new negative ad in 14 swing states. His campaign manager even admitted that all McCain has to rely on is attacks, saying that for them, "This election is not about issues."
He doesn't want Americans to notice that the Republican platform is the most extreme we've ever seen -- opposing stem cell research, denying a woman's right to choose no matter what the circumstance, and continuing to spend $10 billion a month in Iraq.
With so much at stake, we can't allow another election to be determined by petty and divisive political tactics.
The McCain campaign is trying to distract voters from the real issues -- so we're going to focus on what they're trying to hide.
They've come out against the life-saving possibilities of stem cell research.
They don't even mention protecting equal pay for equal work.
They support huge tax cuts for the wealthiest 2% of Americans.
They've almost completely ignored the $10 billion we're spending every month in Iraq.
And they make zero exceptions for a woman's right to choose -- even in cases of rape, incest, or to protect the life of the mother.
If that all sounds like more of the same, that's because it is. John McCain is offering a third term of the disastrous Bush agenda, so it's no wonder his campaign would choose to focus on attacks instead of issues.

But the stakes are high, and there are less than 9 weeks before Election Day. It's going to require unprecedented resources to defeat John McCain and bring about the change America so desperately needs.
Thank you for all you do,
