I'm voting for Ron Paul, so I'm not undecided.

Re: I just want to take a quick poll...

I'm undecided on the candidate I will support, but I'm clearly decided on NONE OF THE ABOVE.

Might vote for the green party candidate. Maybe do the usual and pick some obscure third party candidate purely as a protest vote against the major parties.

Re: I just want to take a quick poll...

This kind of does it for me. Obama won't even put his hand over his heart during the national anthem, nor would he say it. How can a presidential candidate not show full respect to the nation they are trying to run?!?




It's true too.

Re: I just want to take a quick poll...

Once again it is the a choice between the lesser of 2 evils.

I don't relly think a man who won't say the pledge deserves to be on the ballot... that and if he is elected don't expect to have any $ to buy parts. It will all be going to the government in increased taxes!!

McCain/Palin ... she is a bit of a cougar. Plus McCain's wife is a drifter.

Re: I just want to take a quick poll...

If ron paul made the ballot I would be totally for him. But I cant legitimatly support the republicans anymore. So Im going democratic. 4 more years of bush's policies but simply carried on by a different person just seems rediculous to me.

Re: I just want to take a quick poll...

And just so you guys dont pull out the ol' "HES GONNA RAISE MY TAXES"
http://www.miamiherald.com/news/poli...ry/684359.html "Obama also tried to sharpen his economic message. He took an anti-tax-increase vow in Dover, N.H., on Friday, telling voters there: "I can make a firm pledge. Under my plan no family making less than $250,000 a year will see any form of tax increase - not your income tax, not your payroll tax, not your capital gains taxes, not any of your taxes."

Re: I just want to take a quick poll...

Obama Biden for sure.. For many reasons.

But at the very least, who among you thinks Palin is ready to head up the country if anything happens to the 72 year old(with health issues) running for president?

No less ready that Obama... I'd rather have inexperience in the VP seat.

Re: I just want to take a quick poll...

It's time for change in this country and I don't think you're gonna see it with the McCain ticket. MCcain didn't start this whole change things until recently when he was down about 10% from Obama. I'm olded enough to have voted since Ronald Reagan took office and I've ALWAYS voted republican. This time it will be different. People need to get into politics a little more to know who they are voting for. Voting for McCain because he wife drifts is just wrong. McCain will be just like bush if not worse. The guy was a POW for 6 years. Who would have more of a grudge with the world than McCain? Listen to his speeches. Foreign policy is almost always at the top of his priorities. We need to solve things diplomatically, not being so eager to go to war like Bush. This thing with Georgia & Russia is getting hotter. If Georgia becomes a member of NATO and is attacked by Russia, WE WILL goto war with Russia under the NATO policies. Did anyone listen to the one on one speech with Sarah Palin? She was awful when interviewed. She didn't even know what the Bush Doctrin was. She was just as eager to goto war with Russia. Between the commericals of McCain videos of him as a POW & Palin's hockey Mom crap, i'm sick of it. When this woman is unscripted without a teleprompter in front of her with a speech written for her, she scares me. And this who thing about Experience is just crazy. McCain has experience, but experience making the wrong decisions. He's voted with Bush 90% of the time. If you like the way things are now, vote for McCain.

Understand who you're voting for before you do it.

Thats your prerogative, but Obama is far from inexperienced.

Here is more to chew on about Palin(there are many serious issues with this person and her history, it will all come out and it will boggle peoples minds why they chose her):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7Coy1OAQXY


And I'm sick of hearing the "Experience" thing thrown out there. It's just a cover for some deeper issues people have for not wanting to vote for Obama(I'll leave that alone, but I think the point is clear). Here is some info on Obama's "Experience"(I'll choose this person over any other we have to choose from):

http://www.obamapedia.org/page/Does+...dent%3F?t=anon

If you say it's biased.. well yes, it should be, it's factual information about a candidate for the presidency of the United States of America. So if there is good factual info regarding the positive "Experience" from McCain/Palin.. let's see it.

Re: I just want to take a quick poll...

I cannot imagine if Palin was in office. She has been a governer since 2006! That is it. I guess you can count her experience as a mayer also huh...

She has no international experience and just seems stupid IMO. There is a reason that she won't take on one-on-one interviews. The McCain party doesn't even think she is ready.

When you are in a position of even governer, you should answer questions that the public has for you. We are paying your wage, you should be able to answer some questions.

As far as McCain goes, he is a horrible speaker. There isn't any power behind his words. He seems to have the "feel sorry for me" campaign going on trying to secure votes. At the RNC, all they talked about was him as a POW and that he has served in the armed forces. If you like a poor economy and a country at war, vote McCain.

Obama is giving alot of false promises, such as "ending nato" when then he called the pissed off foreigner's and told them he was saying it for votes, and to not worry.

His "uncle who liberated auschwitz in WWII" theres 2 things wrong with that.

I recieved an email from my mother a couple weeks ago explaining the increased taxes everyone would face under obama, and yes, it effects EVERYONE from $20k a year to $2mil a year. they will be damn near doubled on the $20k-$60k people.

McCain.

Wrong. She is the governor of Alaska, which is the closest state to Russia.
