McCain.
I don't trust cults of personality.
And Obama will be bad for Canada-US relations.
But I wish whomever wins the very best.....they have an impossible job ahead of them.

I still have no idea - I am holding off for the boring news debates where three old news hacks grill the candidates.
They were asking for ten - but only have three scheduled. I guess ten would be too much of the same thing ...
The conventions are a fun watch and more interesting for an audience but they don't really get into the sticky stuff until it's a one-on-one. I want to see how they work in
close quarters with seconds to respond.

Eh1eh is right. Someone is talking about investing in a vision of alternative energy. The status quo is pretty good for the oil barons.
Rex Murphy gives Obama a bit of a backhand in the Globe and Mail today as well....says his Convention speech was not up to the event or the day......
Hillary's people are not happy with their treatment by the Democratic powers after the money raising and work they have put into the campaign - they are being shunned now...
Apparently Palin is looking good to that group - talk about a uniter!
Hey DNC....We're Over It. Now You Get Over It!
We watched in horror as you told your base that they were no longer needed and that we could just "stay home". We watched in stunned outrage when you were silent on sexism and propelled the race card. www.hillaryclintonforum.net
You called us uneducated, old, blue collar, gun toters, clingers, not urban, souless, clueless, and basically threw us to the dogs. You told us to shut up, get over it and fall in line.
Many of us have donated, worked hard for the DNC for years if not decades. We have been true blue loyal and you not only turned your backs on us, you did everything in your power to humiliate us. We are over it. We will not be back as long as the DNC is being run by a bunch of left wing zealots. We will not stay home and we will not vote Democrat this year.
Hillary supporters who are now overwhelmingly abandoning the Obama ticket to vote for Palin -

Sorry DNC, we've washed our hands of your candidate and quite possibly of the freak show that is the DNC. The ball is in your half of the court. Deal with it. You're on your own now, since you don't need us.
For the first time in my entire adult life, I'm proud to be voting Republican
The DNC handed the silver platter with the keys to The White House on it back to the GOP's during the "faux call" on the floor of the Convention.
Can not wait to see this NEW UNDEMOCRATIC PARTY lose in November
The DNC insiders never, ever planned on allowing Hillary to be on the top of the ticket. They sabatoged her candidacy and in doing so defrauded her supporters. We were used and abused. Well no more......PUMA!
No, no, no....Not God Bless the DNC. God Damn the DNC.
Democratic ***CHICKENS*** are becoming INDEPENDENT
ditto. donna brazile's remarks were just disgraceful and the phony roll call was pitiful. they dont need us and they are not going to get us. it was your choice dnc. you told us to go away and we will.
Hillary has a huge I Told You So light shining all around her. She will continue to work for our country and the party of FDR, and when the DNC hooligans are kicked to the curb, Hillary will rise--as usual.
In the meantime, I'm looking for a Hillary Supporter for McCain/Palin button. PUMA!

Currently the US is run by people who started unprovoked war of aggression against Iraq, approved torture and violated Geneva conventions regarding the treatment of POWs. These people should be held to the same standard as the Nazis tried at Nuremberg trials.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuremberg_Trials
While McCain supported their heinous crimes, Obama spoke out against them. Obama's popularity may be personality based to some degree, that isn't why people should be for or against him.
People should elect leaders based on their stand on the issues. In the case of Obama, his stand on the Iraq war separates him from McCain.
Obama's lack of association with people who have committed war crimes should be considered an asset, not a liability.
I also find McCain's attack ads against Obama insulting. They quote him out of context and create false perceptions. Its same type of fear mongering manipulations which led the US into war.
Americans face a clear choice. One would manipulate Americans through fear into continued war, conflict, injustice and oppression. The other would lead them toward peace, stability, justice and freedom. This shouldn't be a close race.

Unfortunately most people are easily manipulated.
McCain's attack ad which uses Obama's words out of context in order to provoke irrational fear is a big clue about the direction he will take the US.

I'm hoping McCain wins. Although the wife decided not to vote this time round. She voted for G.W. in 2004 (mail in ballot), however she thinks McCain is too liberal on some issues and prefers to sit out this election.
I remember one of the debates Bush had with Kerry, they showed several times, a bulge
in the back of his jacket,(Bush), and explained it was some kind of a electronic device, which
was obviously helping him, he was getting feed back from someone.
it's amazing that it probably will be a close race, and I can't understand why the american
republican citizens, just toss this fact aside, and accept the 'crimes' of this war, which was
started for 'no' good reason at all. they just don't seem to care about that, and they
still cling to that silly call by the republicans that McCain would be better on security
for the american people, do they want security, irrespective of how it hurts others?
So, are they actually going to vote for someone who would repeat what bush did, and
it could be in iran, or 'anywhere', that is very scary, that party is very scary.
