The best I can say for this election cycle is that Obama appears to have learned from the 1994 elections that gun control is political suicide. I'm fairly amicable toward his social and foreign policies, but on many issues I see from the '90s that one party in the White House and the other in Congress is ideal.
I look forward to voting for Obama/Richardson in November, but realize that if it turns out to be Obama/Clinton or something like it, that I may end up walking out of the voting booth without casting a vote for president. I cannot justify voting for McCain, and "my" party, the Libertarian party, has found the last straw by nominating Bob Barr. I don't see myself voting for anyone but Obama and a VP who is moderate or liberal (in the classical sense of the word) on gun control and immigration.
