I kind of doubt that anything I might say would persuade you. Any particular point in favor of McCain would immediately be countered by the relatively large Liberal population of this forum. As in any other campaign, each point that a candidate might make has been researched and spun and a counterpoint developed and spun.

The fundamental difference between the candidates is that one is a centerist Conservative and the other is a classic Liberal. What you'll get from each is based on that, not on a campaign pitch.

The likelihood is high that Obama will win. This is simply a reaction to Bush-hatred and the problems of the last few years, and of course the historic opportunity to elect a black President, qualified or not. Never mind that many of those problems have been caused by a Legislature that has been controlled by the Left; that they have the lowest approval rating in memory; that they have reneged on almost every committent that they made in order to be elected in the first place; that they are in large part responsible for many of the recent financial crises.

So, rather than list the reasons why you might want to vote for someone other than a radical Liberal, I think I'll just hold on for a while. Most here in the forum will disagree with me on this, but I feel that Obama will say or do anything to get elected, and that by May or so of next year, we'll begin to see what his (and his Liberal Legislature's) concept of Socialism really is. I'll bookmark this thread and put a reminder on my calendar. On second thought, I think I'll start a new thread, to save for next Spring. Won't it be interesting to read next May or June?
