In the race for the white house, it's basically down to about 3 candidates. I don't want another Republican to win, because that would mean no problems would be solved, and we'd still be at war. I still want a new president badly. One who doesn't read children books while terrorists are attacking and then does nothing except cause problems. McCain supports this president's ideas, and waterboarding, which is surprising, since he was tortured for five years when he was in Vietnam. Personally, I want Obama to win this, because though he lacks experience, he has good ideas for this country, is smart, and can change this country. I'm not trying to convince you to vote Obama, because Clinton is equally smart, and you can vote for McCain if you like. What's equally interesting is why it's so hard to make fun of Obama for people. He has his share of flaws, like the other candidates, and it's not racist to make fun of him or his policies, which I think alot of people are afraid of. As for Clinton, well people are acting as though it's over when it's far from being over. She still has a chance, and people are just acting as though Obama is this perfect person, while she has as good ideas as he does. However, she is using some dirty politics, which I think is a shame, because she's smarter than that, and her tactics are backfiring on her as well, since Obama is replying to these negative campaigns unbelievably well. As the race goes on, the candidates and voters both know that only one person will be president, and though it might be the right or wrong decision, will the new president be heroic, or just another Bush?

What do you think is going to happen tomorrow (Tuesday)? Will it be curtains for Hillary and victory for your guy, Obama?
Someone I know says that there's a scandal brewing about Obama -- that he is going to be the victim of an embarrassing story.
Personally, I think he is made of Teflon!
I agree with you, Greaser, I want Obama to win also. Up until a few months ago, I thought Hillary would be OK as a second choice, but now I'm not so sure. I think many of her campaign tactics have been dishonest and desperate, which makes me think she would not be good for the presidency. Though I can't say I'd prefer McCain to her. For me, Obama's the only choice.
You might want to check out http://talkingpointsmemo.com/ sometime. It's a political blog and always has interesting analysis and video. Let me know what you think.
Hi again W.G.!
I am for Obama, too! But, I agree that Hilary is also good. But I just love how Obama believes we can change the world, one person at a time. Yes we can!!!! I hope he does well today.
Thanks for responding! GO OBAMA!!! he's won Vermont, so far, though Clinton is winning Ohio. I just hope that Mc Cain doesn't become president! With luck, maybe Obama will win Texas, but I also hope that Clinton doesn't get ahead of him. I think Hillary shouldn't be using dirty politics, but did you know that Obama made a red phone ad of his own---right after Clinton made hers?
I'm for Hilary mainly, but like Obama too. It's nice to have two great choices. By the way, speaking of "Yes we Can", did you see that youtube video that was put together using his speech? I thought it was incredible.
Cupcake ninja,
yes I did see the you tube video that was put together from his speech. It was incredible, and inspiring. I LOVE HIS SPEECHES! I like Clinton too, but I hate her campaign strategies that she's been using lately. She's gonna win Ohio, though Obama has a chance there as well as in Texas. Thanks for Commenting!
