Who would you Vote for?

I am very curious, as of toady (October 9th) who would you vote for?

McCain or Obama?

I do realize that most of you guys are somewhat to the "right" and I may probably get flamed on for giving my support to the Democratic ticket

So if you'd be so kind, please vote here and give us "one sentence explanation of why?" I hope limiting your responses to one sentence may reduce the chances of a flaming war

So here we go:
My vote goes to the Obama ticket, I've made my decision after Sarah Palin was selected for the VP position.

Re: Who would you Vote for?

Nobody will get flamed for being for one canidate or the other. Thats not cool. Now posting stupid crap about one canidate or the other will cause some heated discussions. LOL

I am for McCain.

1) McCain was thrown into the prosecution because otherwise the Keating 4 would have been all Democrats
2) He was absolved of all charges
3) The (Democrat) independent prosecutor has stated that McCain should never have been charged in the first place
4) McCain has spent the twenty years leading the charge on reforms, even if he has gone overboard in some instances (e.g., McCain-Feingold)

Re: Who would you Vote for?

Going to vote for McCain. Not that I think he's a great choice, just a better choice than Obama. Also, having been a career military officer, I appreciate a Commander In Chief how has been there and done that. FWIW, I will NEVER vote for someone that supports the right to abortion.

Re: Who would you Vote for?

oooooooooh man...

I'd vote for Obama only because he offends me least. I wish there were more options -- not only in your poll, but in the election, too.

Though my reasons are rarely this simple, I can't vote republican as long as the party is so stridently anti-choice. (zipping up nomex suit...)

Actually, I am launching a 'write-in' campaign. So remember, when you slip into that private booth to vote, it's spelled S C A B.

Thank you for your support.

Re: Who would you Vote for?

Now on the Obamas going to win. It is really really really to close to call that.

All the polls are in the margin of error.
The polls are admitedly wieghted towards the democrat canidate.
The polls have in the past consistently over estimated the % of the vote recieved by the democratic canidate.

In reality it is a dead heat right now.
