    6; John McCain is "better suited for the job".

    Please allow me to be clear: THERE IS NO CONTEST, HERE.

    JOHN MCCAIN SPENT MORE TIME IN A POW CAMP THAN OBAMA

    SPENT ON HIS ENTIRE DO-NOTHING CAREER.

    IT IS IN DESPICABLY BAD TASTE TO EVEN HAVE SUGGESTED

    A SEASONED VETERAN OF THIS NATION NEED TO CAMPAIGN

    AGAINST RIFF-RAFF. THIS ENTIRE CAMPAIGN IS NOTHING MORE THAN A VERY BAD JOKE BUT WITH AN AWFUL LOT

    OF FRAUD, MISAPROPRIATION OF FUNDS AND BLATANT LIES.

    This is what I think about that

    1. Obama might win the presidency, but if he does:

    2. Obama will cut ties with (financial and military) Israel.

    3. Obama will consolidate power in the new Super majority

    Democrat controlled Congress and abolish the 2010 Congressional elections (Directive 51, Obama will allow the US to be attacked by terrorists to accomplish this goal).

    4. Obama and his Democrat controlled Congress will be forced to

    institute the draft (red stater's will not willingly send their son's and

    daughter's off to fight his UN wars).

    5. Obama and his Democrat controlled Congress will be forced to

    impose food rationing.

    6. Obama and his Democrat controlled Congress will set

    up "confinement camps" because of massive civil unrest.

    7. Obama and his Democrat controlled Congress will institute "Martial

    Law", because of massive civil unrest.

    8. Obama and his Democrat controlled Congress will clamp down on

    2nd Amendments rights and then outright outlaw/ban the private

    ownership of all handguns and hunting guns.

    9. Obama and his Democrat controlled Congress will be forced to

    impose rolling "Brown Outs" (shutting electrical power down in

    various regions) to reduce consumption.

    10. Obama will use the full force of the United States military to

    squelch public opposition.

    11. Obama will use the CIA to spy on all private and public

    communications.

    12. Obama and his Democrat Congress will, through legislation,

    outlaw all "conservative talk radio/TV" to squelch the opposition.

    13. Obama will severely regulate the Internet and it's use.

    14. Obama will not be able, or willing, to stop new and bigger terrorist

    attacks on American soil, or retaliate for the attacks.

    15. Barack Obama will force American citizens to have radio-frequency identification -- RFID -- tags implanted…in lieu of card identification or currency?

    16. Barack Obama will successfully push through Congress a “reparations for slavery” bill.

    Finally, Barack Obama will suspend all 1st Amendment rights indefinitely.

    Is this possible?

    I am voting for McCain because he is the best man for the job.

    Because I believe his views, beliefs and stances on the issues are closer to my own.

    And because I am sick and tired of affirmative action.!!!

    Any of the three could team with Wes Clark, as in accordance to his military credentials and overseas coverage recognize-how, no longer to point his potential to counter Mc Cain. My perfect should be Edwards/Clark '08.
