2008 Election

I'm not sure if I just haven't been paying this much attention to prior year's elections or if this is the most hyped one. I'll go with the latter, however, it has caught my attention more. Probably because we had Hillary Clinton running in the primaries; Obama won and is running for president and Sara Palin running as VP. Yes, this one will go down in history for sure.

So, who are you voting for? Why are you voting for this person? All I want to say is make sure you go to factcheck.org. There, you can research any questions you have about either party. All this hatred and thinking Obama is associated with terrorists is scaring me and making me realize that people don't check their facts. Yes, I am an Obama supporter but I will not push for that. Just GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT to make your decision. Don't listen to what others say, do your research. All the emails that fly around...they are easy to decode...go to snopes.com.

This is why I am not voting for McCain:

1. His tactics are very similar to Bush's and I do not like how Bush has run this country in the past 8 years.

2. McCain has a very short-temper and I saw that come out during Debate #3...big no-no for me. How can you not control your temper? And you want to run a country and talk to other leaders of this world. Um...no thanks.

3. Palin - all I can say is that if McCain is president...I will pray every single day for your health so Palin will never take over. I believe she has no concept of the important issues and is not qualified to run this country as a VP or P.

4. I believe McCain's tax plans help the rich more than the middle class and poor.

5. What really put me over the edge was recently, at rally's, McCain and Palin have allowed people to shout "terrorist", "off with his head", "let's kill him" about Obama and they did nothing! I am apalled that they do not have the human compassion to stop their rally and correct that person. I do not want our country to be turned into that.

Why I am voting for Obama:

1. I believe he conducted himself well through this campaign (I think he is doing much better now than he did during the Primaries - who I then voted for Hillary).

2. I agree with more of his tactics in cleaning up this country.

3. I like Biden and I think he has a good head about things.

4. I do not believe Obama is associated with terrorists.
