You’ve got one good trick and you’re hanging on you’re hanging on to it
I thought I'd try opening this up more, and not just go back and forth with just_xbreathe. I don't want her to be the only one supporting McCain either. I know my LJ is a hot bed for politics and all

Cause he seems to be making a bad choice after bad choice. You have a legitimate arguement in saying Obama has no experience, but then you pick Palin as a VP. And then the suspending the campaign and the debate tonight really pushed me over the edge. There's no reason that he can't do the debate. He should know how he stands and how to respond to questions by now.
But please, if you do have something on Obama like the house question that I have not seen or heard of I'd love to know about it. And yes there are somethings about Obama I don't like at all. Like voting for the (don't have time to look it up atm) "invasion of privacy bill" right around the time he was assumed the victor over Hillary. Complete 180 for what he was doing before.
And I am no economics genious. I got an A in my class in highschool, and that's the end of my story. So if you agree with his tax plan could you tell me why? Cause I don't get it.
I'd like to be at the place where I wasn't leaning so heavily on one side, mainly because I now no longer see the appeal in McCain that I once had. (which probably was just fueled by my "oh my god if we go from bush to clinton to bush to clinton I will shooooooot myself." toughts.)

Is that actually the case? You really want to hear the petty flubs and political screw-ups that have little to do with the campaign? 'Cause Obama's got himself a closet full of gaffs along those lines, but I regard those as beside the point. There's only two things that should be considered from the voter's standpoint.
1) What does the candidate say they will do?
2) Do you trust they will do it?
#2 is actually the most important, as it rolls up a) competency b) honesty/earnestness c) intelligence and especally d)capability. It is amazing to me the things people worry about without considering that there's two more government bodies standing squarely in the path of the most radical idiotic assertions by either candidate, preventing followthrough on even the mildest of changes.

If I new Clinton could make himself, and America, look that stupid would I have voted for him?
I dunno if I can trust someone that can't remember how many houses he owns. That doesn't exactly scream competent. A series of things McCain has done lately fully back up those factors. So yes, if you have something on Obama then equalize it.
Right now we can see some of the choices they make and then have some sort of a hint as to if they would be as stupid as Bush was and throw troops into Iraq under false pretenses.

If it's the appearance of disparity of wealth you find embarrasing, then you might consider the future president of the US leaving a brother living in abject poverty or turning his back on a school named after him.
