No Hillary, No Obama. At least vote for a guy who's been around long enough to see what's wrong with our country and could give it a shot at getting some issues straightened out. I'm going with McCain.

In my opinion, Hillary can get our the us dollar stronger. A stronger dollar will solve our outragious gas price problem. It will reduce the price of food and clothing and she is the only candidate with the know how to get our dollar back on track.

I like both McCain and Huckabee. I do not like Obama or Clinton. We've already had one Clinton too many, and just think what would happen with another Billary term. Of course I guess she wears the pants in the family, Bill just tries to get in everyones! And if she doesn't get her way, she can always cry. PLEASE! As for Obama-he may have vision, he may be charming and charismatic-but be careful what you wish for. How can we expect someone to lead OUR country who will not even say the pledge and if he does, says one nation under gods, instead of God. Also with his Muslim ties-do we want to hand our country over to Islam? I wonder how many people are truly voting on the issues and what the candidates stand for, and not just "looks" or gender.

Again, all that internet crap has been debunked. Dislike him if you want, don't vote for him if you don't want to, but do it for legitimate reasons, not because you believe gossip.

I really like what Obama says about issues here in the US, but what good does it do to improve our economy here for a little while, pull our troops out before finishing the job in Iraq, and have another 9/11 (or worse) destroy it again?

I heard today that there's a chance Huckabee become McCain's running mate, I like that combo.

NAB,

Would you mind posting the link to where that has been debunked? I still won't vote for him-but would like to see the report. Thanks.

There are a number of references regarding the false statements about Obama's so-called "Muslim ties", his refusal to place his hand over his heart during the Pledge of Allegiance and many other untruths that have been forwarded ad nauseum for the past six months or so. Snopes has several different links regarding the same, but this one is quite detailed and factual.

I think it's interesting that of all the candidates, every single one who has shortcomings and history they're probably not proud of, more people focus on Obama than any of the others. I chalk it up to the fact that he's black and has a name that offends some. There's certainly no other good reason for such a never-ending deluge of out-and-out slander.

OK-points taken from the snopes site. Still not the candidate for me, and race has nothing to do with it. Personally I admire both Condoleeza Rice and Colin Powell and think they would do well if they ever decided to run for office. But a question I posed earlier is, how many people ARE voting for Barrack because he IS black? Not because of any other reasons. Same with Hiliary-how many people are voting because she is a woman? I don't think Obama has the experience and I don't think Hiliary has the backbone to be a good president. I also think that if a Dem is elected, welfare lines will be longer and we will see an increase in all these government handouts-because pity the little person who can't(won't) help themselves.
