I'm still doing some research before I decide. Before this election I always went with what the politians promise when they get in office. This year I'm studying a lot harder. Make sure you read Stanley Kurtz articles on Obama before you decide what you want in a candidate. Here's on example..

Yea, I guess you're right about us Christians. We behead the non-believers, plant bombs at busy places where only the dead will be innocents, and not to mention the nature of that most insane one, Jesus. Now Mohammed had the right idea, kill em if they refuse to join. Jesus was just a peaceful person whose ideas have sent trillions of dollars and billions of man hours to the helpless. I guess if she weren't dead, Mother Teresa should be right there alongside Osama. Or is it Obama? I always get those two confused. But then, who wouldn't. They both get their intel from the same source, the Koran and that is certainly a book of sane people.
Don't waste your time on the likes of Obama, he has hee'e and haw'd his way to the limelight and now he seems to fall on the same knife every time to show his "followers" he is the real martyr. I don't particularly like McCaine but Pallin more than makes up for his low tone, universally insane issues he's had to deal with,( most notebably his getting into bed with the most liberal on the planet, Ted, the swimmer, Kennedy. I doubt that Pallin will reign in McCain even though I think the Republicans should reverse the ticket. She has something none of the other candidates have, integrity. That is one possition you don't get on the beltway and isn't bought. Sorry, Obama is gonna go the way of Dukakis? or Kerry; the one that fought in reverse. I feel sorry for the Dems that they can't pick a plum from an orange tree. They will try forever but never quite do it without slight of hand; circa:Clinton.

John,

Anyone who would vote for 4 more years of the "Bush" administration is an idiot!! Have you even seen the news on the economy lately? Have you seen what is happening in the financial markets TODAY?

After 8 years of the middle class being screwed, the currant administration has done more to undermine this country than Osama ever did. If you ask me, he is the greater enemy.

Just curious, how closely do you follow legislative proceedings in the House and Senate ?

If you do, on a somewhat regular basis as I do, you would notice that Republicans have resulted to using filibusters and political stunts a record 100 plus times (since they started keeping track ) to hold up legislation and votes so they can run against what they call "a do-nothing Congress" . Their previous leader Trent Lott pointed this strategy out in several interviews even before the Democrats took over majority. Basically the Republicans were holding up legislation solely for their political gain, hoping that most voters would not find this out, so they can run on a lie. Pretty sad!

I'm tired or the "I'm of this party so I can't agree with anything that party says" attitude. They work for us, all of them. They need to get their sh1t together and do what's right for us for a "change"
I'm no longer voting for one certain party. I'm voting for the ones who seem to be the most honest. Any one can make promises. We've been hearing promises for years now.

That's exactly right. There are ways around the majority in Congress and Republicans have overused these processes that have resulted in Congress making no progress. Democrats need Obama elected to get anything accomplished.

Obama keeps changing his game plan in the middle of the game. It's like he's telling us what he thinks we want to hear. For instance O'riely didn't like it that he was raising his taxes to 25 to 30%. By the end of the show Obama told him "ok 20%". Now the news today says he's changed his mind and won't raise the taxes right away. I don't like that to much.

"Still deciding "
it sounds like you're already decided. You haven't noticed McCain changing his platform on a weekly basis? not that long ago he proudly called himself " a deregulator "but now his story has changed and Wall Street needs "regulations ". I think you have the candidates mixed up!

I know McCain is changing his story to. You said Obama is the Obvious choice but he's not being honest with us either. I don't have an obvious choice yet. I'm still keeping up with everything they're promising.

You do know that those democrats that are running the house, still have to fight the "bobble head" that is known as Pres. Bush. He vetos everything.
Until Bush is out of office and a democrat president is in there, we will continue to have the same ole, same ole.

Obama to Supporters: Argue With Your Neighbors, Get In Their Face
September 18, 2008 by texasdarlin
“I want you to get in their face.”— Barack Obama
Now we know where Obama’s mean, nasty, abusive followers get their marching orders. At a Nevada rally Wednesday, Obama said this to about 14,000 people:

“I need you to go out and talk to your friends and talk to your neighbors. I want you to talk to them whether they are independent or whether they are Republican. I want you to argue with them and get in their face.“

Nice. So much for the politics of hope and unity. So much for teaching our youth how to be good citizens and neighbors. So much for teaching tolerance, respect, and bi-partisanship. If someone doesn’t agree with you, especially if they don’t choose Obama, just get in their face and pick a fight.

Is this how Obama plans to train his National Citizen Service Corps?

How presidential. Teaching young people how to be Chicago thugs.

The Republicans have boiler rooms full of paid bloggers (probably in Pakistan) to post on these sites 24 hours a day. They are running a campaing based on FEAR and LIES! They control the money and think they can buy(steal) this election again. Don't be fooled!

Actually, McCain has a proven history of working across party lines. Obama has a consistent liberal voting record.
