forseti> I understand why you dont like Obama's polices..but you havnt explained why they would be destructive.
How Obama's policy to let the tax cuts of 01 and 03 expire in 2010 as intended...and returning to the 1999 rates...and focusing tax cuts on the middle class.
How is that more destructive than adding to the massive national debt (nearly doubled since those tax cuts) as a result, in part, of those tax cuts and making them permanent? Was our tax policy of the 90s disastrous...did the wealthiest tax payers suffer irreparable damage?
Obama's support for late term abortion is only in the case of the life or serious health threat to the mother...a position held by a majority of Americans..again, how is that destructive?
I think most Americans want to see America's image around the world restored. Obama's foreign policy will put diplomacy and consulting with allies back in the mix as an important tool to resolve differences..as well as focusing on rebuilding our image around the world. Destructive? Or perhaps you dont think its important what our allies think us (lower now than any time in our lifetime).

I think McCain tax policy, focused on benefiting the top tax payers, is disastrous and will result in further increasang the national debt substantially.
McCain's health care policy will have the potential of destroying employer-based health plans..which are the foundation of our current health care delivery system.
McCain's broader economic policy?...he still hasnt explained it...perhaps because he admits he knows little about economic policy.
McCain war rhetoric directed at Iran is a continuation of the same..and only further alienating us from our allies.
