I'm supposed to ignore that this great man who is going to be the greatest president since Washington.... has had very poor people around him, that he will routinely put under the bus, came out of nowhere and has a press cover up and make excuses for this man, while crucifying McCain for every little thing he says.

pan...you can vote for whomever you want for whatever reason you want.
IMO, based on your posts, you are being a bit disingenuous with your double standards.
You raise Obama's 20 year "association" with Wright...you ignore Obama's 20+ year association with his crooked father-law...and his association with the S&L scandal 20 years ago and his current association with Phill Gramm (his chief economic advisor) and the banking lobby that some attribute as being responsible in part for the sub-prime crisis.
You fault Obama for throwing Wright under the bus (I would characterize it differently) ..but ignore McCain's throwing two evangelical extremists under the bus
You raise questions about the "people" around Obama and ignore the "people" (around 100 lobbyists - telecomm, banking, etc) around McCain..some of whom have had to resign for lobbying for Mynmar and other nasty foreign governments.
You call Obama a "fucking idiot" for misstatements on the campaign trail and ignore McCain's equally (or more) idiotic misstatements on the campaign trail.
You claim that Obama gets a "press cover up?...and McCain's media friendly "straight talk express" doesnt.
Just be honest that you dont hold McCain to the same standard as you do Obama...rather than resort to the hyperbole that relies on bullshit that plays on voters' emotions in the manner encouraged by the most right wing blogs.
