I have no answer to your question, because I don't see any reasons to vote for McCain (unless you're pro-life).

I actually am looking for more public discussion on how the candidate will help the little guy (me), not the rest of the world. I am pretty set in my ways on voting for Obama because of what I have already read, and how disgusted I am with the current president and McCain's tactics.
I am pro-choice, but could care less on that issue. I am indifferent to the gay situation. I have pretty good health care through work that i only pay 1/2 of, and am fine with it.
More or less, I have seen nothing about how McCain could help me personally. I am trying to get some information from this thread about why people are voting for McCain, that are in my age / class range (and who are not racist).

There are merely some highlights. It should be enough to get you started, though.

Now, from what I've figured from each candidate's plans, my taxes will be cut under Obama, and not McCain. McCain, my taxes will stay about the same.
Is government spending going to help me? I make enough money to support my college education that I am going through. I don't own a business. I don't take welfare. What good comes out of more government spending for me?
Iraq will never be a mission accomplished. What a waste...
I don't understand the Cuba statement.
I am against unprevoked war, so I would rather have Obama in.

I also don't want this to turn into a thread slamming "the other guy" (or anyone else because of their ideas).
