    Not a significant difference. Whether we are fighting in Iraq (McCain) or Aghanistan (Obama) we are still fighting wars we should not be. Vote for our person; Ron Paul.

    It's been entertainment for me, so far. Every week something new comes up with BO. He loves the camera. Whoever dreamed him up must be having some flashbacks from something they inhaled or swallowed back in the '60's.

    Take Ted Kennedy for example. We know now that he has brain cancer. Is that what prompted him back a couple of years ago to introduce BO as our next P.O.T.U.S.A.?

    McCain isn't so full of drama and flip flops, he just makes sense.

    Would you rather risk loosing our country to a bunch of lunatics who don't even know how the common man lives, and lead our country into self destruction, or maybe McCain does have the right idea. Let's get this war over with and do it the right way, defend our freedom and go one and prosper, like USA is traditionally known for.

    If you don't enjoy driving a car, and you don't mind paying $12.00 per gallon for a gallon of gas, just keep Pelosi and Reid, and vote for BO. He'll make new rules for us, such as telling us how warm we can be in the winter, how cool we can be in the summer, what kind of food we can eat, where our children go to school, what language our children learn in school, prohibite religious freedom, tax religious organizations, tell us who to give our money to for charity donations, and then his wife will tell us how much us girls can pay for a pair of earrings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

    Say for instance, you have an inheritance coming from dear old Mom and Dad. BO wants 55% of it. Can you believe?

    My God, are you asleep?

    Wake up America, or we will lose America.

    McCain will preserve the free market and limited government.

    Obama will make this country communistic with his left-wing policies. And he will tax tax tax tax tax tax tax tax tax tax. EVERYBODY, not jus the rich.

    Though, McCain is not great, I'd rather commit suicide than vote Obama.

    wanted Hillary, not going to vote for Obama. If i believe what he says i would. but its just talk and all to get votes, I dont believe in Obama . A first year senator that wants us to believe he will save the county and is like Jack Kennedy; give me a break, straight from chicago and no experience to be president.

    ENERGY!

    McCain is for new exploration and drilling, Nuclear power, and coal power while pushing forward with new alternative energy technologies.

    Obama wants no new drilling/exploration, is against nuclear plants and against coal. Remember studying the dark ages in highschool? Something like that.

    McCain hasn't been emasculated by a "friend" in the press.

    Yo Bama will make out troops and nation losers by retreating from Iraq.
