He says what he thinks republicans want to hear. Thus the flip flopping. I actually think that once he got the Presidency, he'd stop a lot of the pandering to the conservatives and follow more of a middle of the road approach like he's been known to do in the past.

That's kind of what I think... or at least what I hope for. I mean, a guy who was a POW in 'Nam suddenly approving torture when right-wingers are trying to spin it? I have a hard trouble believing he's earnest in that.

It could just be wishful thinking though. I like the idea of a race where either person who makes it into office doesn't particularly try to pander to one audience. My support is for Obama right now. I'm really hoping he clenches the nomination; Hillary's had some things happen to her publicly that make me not want to trust her.

Bosnia pretty much sealed the deal for me that she either can't remember details well what-so-ever, or she'll flat out lie to paint a pretty picture of herself.

I watched Obama's speech today live, and he was most certainly better spoken there than anywhere. I think he's had a lot of time to refine it and practice it, because unlike other times he speaks in public, it was not littered with "um", "er", and repetition.

That is because this was a pre written speech and not an interview/debate where he is asked questions and has to think about what to respond with ;D His speeches through out the campaign have always sounded like this.

Yeah, you're right. He knows how to talk at times like that, but when he's questioned, he's not too good.

I'd vote McCain.

He might just do it. This is great news.

That's pretty much the feeling anymore. But by the looks of it, anyone who wins can't do much worse than this administration. I think they'd have to try to do that...

NADER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! jk. obama. dude, i saw on the news the other day a senator called osama bin laden "obama bin laden" on accident XD i was upset. so was he lol.

I skimmed through the topic, and lol'd extra hard.

McCain would be the most generic. I mean, God. While Hilary and Obama are duking it out, "YOU'RE A WOMAN" this, and "OMG, UR BLAQ, DON'T TAKE MY CHICKEN" that, McCain is going to sneak into the presidency.

Like a ninja. A white, plain, ninja that everyone has seen before.

But on the subject of Democrats, Hilary would be a better choice.

First woman president. Bill by her side. If she dies, Bill would become president again. Breaking history by breaking history.

And ah. When was the last time our economy was through prosperity? That's right. When Bill was president.

And if it's her last two terms, he MAY get to run again. But the Constitution wasn't set up for this. Our founding fathers never foresaw a woman or a colored president. <3

So, lawls. Hilary FTW.

Experience > Ideals.

No We Can't.

Uhhh. The vice president becomes president if the president dies...

In any case, at this point in time my full support goes to Barack Obama. Really, the fact that he's lead the cleanest campaign in this election says a lot. Additionally, I buy into the whole inspirational thing. Sure, he might not get a ton done, but I'd rather have someone go into office with the attitude of change, and do what they can, as opposed to promises of more of the same or a "I'll see what I can do attitude."

I'd rather have someone go into office who actually has some morals.

I really wish we had a more conservative candidate.
I still think that McCain is more like a liberal in a conservative disguise. That's why I wouldn't be voting (if I could). No conservatives.
