Well i thought i might as well ask this question straight foreward. Who will you be voting for in November?
If your undecided just state who are you leaning towards.
Well recent polls shows:
Obama-48%
McCain-44%
Well Obama lost 1percent and McCain Gained one Percent.
In My opinion, i really dont think either candidates are perfect for the next president for the united states, but i think that whoever it is really wants to change what is happening today
In The Republican convention, The Economy wasent even mentioned.
McCain stated that the Economy was sound and there were no problems relating to it and he also stated that Gas surges is a phase and should be left alone to repair itself.
Im giving my support for Obama as of right now, but anything can happen so im not 100% sure.
I think the economy desprately needs to be fixed.

I don't think that any candidate is ever "perfect" and no candidate has all the training or all the answers to all of the issues. I do, however, feel that McCain is the best candidate and that is how I will vote. I do not feel that Obama has the experience to address the issues that presently exist in our country.

In the case of McCain and Palin - I am happy to wear it proudly!

I will be voting for McCain. He is real and trustworthy and he has a proven record of selfless service to the USA for 50 years, and I think his dedication will carry over to the presidency, and he'll do whatever it takes to help America be best it can be. Obama has none of those things going for him.

I'll be voting for Obama & Biden. I was leaning that way when McCain put Sarah from the Frozen North on the ticket and then I became a firm Obama supporter. The thought of that woman getting closer to the oval office than Hillary Clinton could makes me cringe.

I agree, can you imagine her sitting down with delegates from other countries and using the same old stuff (I was mayor of Wasilla and the Gov of Alaska and I have all the experience needed to straighten out all of the mess)?
Give me a break! The only reason she is on the ticket is to try and capture the votes that Hillary left on the table. Did you notice that McCain didn't announce his running mate until after Obama did.
It shouldn't take anyone with any sense at all to figure that out.

Yea i know. The VP debate last night proved that. I heard that critics who watched it claimed Biden destroyed Palin during the debate which was really unexpected from probably both sides. I think Palin indeed was a poor choice, just to win Hillary supporters but it didnt work out as much as they think lol.

I'll be voting for Obama all the way and I've done my best to recruit as many new voters as possible. I've done pretty well on that score, I might add, and I can say with a great deal of confidence all of my new recruits will also be voting for Obama. He's not perfect, not by a long shot, but who is? McCain is a POW - that's the main thing we hear about him, that and he's a "maverick", but I don't think the person who earned that nickname exists anymore.
I watch and listen to Obama and Biden, I look at what they've done and what they've stood for throughout their respective careers and I look at their personal stories and what I see is a ticket who really can relate to the working people of this country. Have they made mistakes? Of course, but who hasn't? What I know is I care about the working people, the elderly, children, people who have lost their jobs or their homes, people who have no or inadequate health care coverage and people who have loved ones serving in one of our two wars we're currently engaged in. I care about our energy crisis and I also care about our environment. I think Obama and Biden care about the same things I do and that's good enough for me.
