A vote for Obama?
As I watch the election coverage I tend to to get the feeling that Mr. Obama is a lot like the center fielder that will run into the shortstops back just chasing a pop-up. It ain't being who's best for the job right now, it is just the competition. I wonder if in his own heart he thinks he is the best thing for this counrty? And the question is ' do you really think, deep down, this young fellow is the answer?'
Top guy darrin, anyone that will give you 110% don't know what a 100% is yet. You show me a 110% of an orange and I'll show you a dishonest vendor.

I don't buy into "this young fellow"; this is a perfectly mature man, the age Kennedy was then shot down, but lacking in the fundamental skills and integrity to be the President of the United States. I think the Obama supporters are treating this like a popularity contest on BET, instead of giving the most powerful job on earth to one man.
Additionally, I feel Michelle would be a real embarrassment as First Lady, who is also sometimes referred to as The Ambassador to the World. She would be given office, and staff and the 24/7 ear of the International Press....what a disaster for us if she decides to open her big racist mouth. Think about it.
Traditional Americans values mean something to many of us; other HATE those very values. I think MANY Obama supporters are amongst the haters.

Just who is best qualified is quite a decision this election. Obama doesn't have the background to be even running nor the respect for the flag, government or our national heritage. Mr. McCain is a retired military officer and pilot, an x-POW, been wounded in action, has experience and respect of our government in all aspects. I ask you to pick the best man. Believe me it's not hard. I was always a guy that voted with my own mind and not a party man.

Barack plays to whatever group he is speaking to.
Barack Obama claims to be a committed Christian. He can call himself anything he likes, but there are certain markers among the evangelicals he is courting that one must meet in order to qualify for that label.
Quoting from an interview the Illinois senator gave to Chicago Sun-Times religion editor Cathleen Falsani "I'm rooted in the Christian tradition," Obama told Falsani. "I believe there are many paths to the same place, and that is a belief that there is a higher power, a belief that we are connected as a people." The latter part of that statement would likely be viewed by most Christians as universalism.
There is a clear requirement for one to qualify as a Christian and Obama doesn't meet that requirement. One cannot deny central tenets of the Christian faith, including the deity and uniqueness of Christ as the sole mediator between God and Man and be a Christian. Such people do have a label applied to them in scripture.
They are called 'false prophets.'"

I'm at odds...I agree with Obama when it comes to foreign policy, but I agree with McCain when it comes to the economy. The economy at this moment is more important to me, so as of now I am a supporter of McCain.

If you read his book, The Audacity of Hope, you would have known that Obama really does have a vision for this country.
So yes, he believes that he can make a difference in this nation and I have no doubt that he will put forth 110% effort to turn this nation around.
And yes, this young fellow is indeed the answer.

A vote for Obama is a vote for a better America.
Oh, and please don't insult the people who took the time to answer your silly question.

I think deep inside he doesnt know what to say... He shifts his stances left and right which for voters is horrible....
I just dont see how Obama supporters consider Obama "experience" when he is not compared to McCain.

McCain. Obama is just a stage performer who cannot do anything other than smile and wax clever.

No, my vote needs to go to someone is willing to work with both sides and someone I can trust, and Obama does neither for me.
