Have to get people talking amongst each other about how things are and how they can be different. So definitely, feel free to spark some conflict here. It's allowed as long as no one becomes disrespectful.
But yeah, I agree that Obama and McCain are not candidates that I really want to vote for either. I am disappointed. We need more options. However, I initially wanted Hillary to win. I had more faith in her then any of them. With that said, the fact that she is backing Obama makes me feel a little more confident that I should choose him over McCain. But most importantly, I just don't like McCain at all so that's that. Looks like I will be voting for Obama.

First of all, I had not seen your PM before I made my post....Seeing what you have written, I will answer it...
Hillary, in my estimation made such a crucial mistake in that statement of coming in to a visit to some base and it was under fire...Then the statement about the assassination was just too close to call...Could have been a mistake and could have been planned....Politics is dirty....
I saw Obama at the Convention four years ago...When I saw him speaking I said to my husband, "that man is going to run for President"....I was impressed....I liked him....He liked to speak and he spoke well...He did not plan on making the kind of showing he did, yet he did....I was just plain impressed by his presence..However, I never thought that he would come on this fast....But now thinking about it, if I, who am not politically minded, could catch this, then his party caught it too....They had a rose in their midst and never knew it.....
So with this statement and thinking that Hillary shot herself in her own foot, I have gone to bat for Obama.....You have shamed me and I have voted...TC, C
