I'm an uncommitted voter and I thought they did equally well. Although I'm not more likely to vote for either of them afterwards.

Wasting your vote ftw!

I just hope someday I get to vote for a Pres. candidate that I really believe in...probably never will happen though

I belive in Obama. It is time for change yet again. The old dinosaur won't do anything to change our current situations. OBAMA will

It's funny...I'm firmly convinced that anyone who really believed in change would vote outside the two party system. The Repubs and Dems will never be the agents of true change imo, they're both too invested in big government big money big politics.

If there was a viable third pary choice I might vote for it. But a third party canidate in this day and age doesnt stand a chance. I think Obama is a better choice. A lesser of two evils.

Thats the thing we shouldn't have to pick between the lesser of two evils.

I don't see Obama as a lesser of an evil by any means. I see him as a candidate I truly want to have be the president of my country. I don't even see McCain as an evil; he just doesn't share the same logic, values or priorities that I do. I think the two party system has become stagnant and gets in the way of progress and so by voting for either person from those parties we're continuing the "evil" of that.

This is the only way I would vote for a candidate. Good for you man, I'm glad. I wish I felt that way about one of the two biggies would make things easier

Out of his own mouth... I didn't see this because I was with my wife at the hospital. For the delivery of our baby girl that weekend. My sister told me to look this up. Interview on ABC with George Stephanopoulos.

Interesting stuff...

"Here is the transcript:

STEPHANOPOULOS: You mention your Christian faith. Yesterday you took off after the Republicans for suggesting you have Muslim connections. Just a few minutes ago, Rick Davis, John McCain's campaign manager, said they've never done that. This is a false and cynical attempt to play victim. OBAMA: You know what? I mean, these guys love to throw a rock and hide their hand. The...

STEPHANOPOULOS: The McCain campaign has never suggested you have Muslim connections.

OBAMA: No, no, no. But the -- I don't think that when you look at what is being promulgated on Fox News, let's say, and Republican commentators who are closely allied to these folks--

STEPHANOPOULOS: But John McCain said that's wrong.

OBAMA: Now, well, look. Listen. You and I both know that the minute that Governor Palin was forced to talk about her daughter, I immediately said that's off limits. And--

STEPHANOPOULOS: But John McCain said the same thing about questioning your faith.

OBAMA: And what was the first thing the McCain?s campaign went out and did? They said, look, these liberal blogs that support Obama are out there attacking Governor Palin.

Let's not play games. What I was suggesting -- you're absolutely right that John McCain has not talked about my Muslim faith. And you're absolutely right that that has not come--

STEPHANOPOULOS: Christian faith.

OBAMA: -- my Christian faith. Well, what I'm saying is that he hasn't suggested--

STEPHANOPOULOS: Has connections, right.

OBAMA: -- that I'm a Muslim. And I think that his campaign's upper echelons have not, either.

What I think is fair to say is that, coming out of the Republican camp, there have been efforts to suggest that perhaps I'm not who I say I am when it comes to my faith -- something which I find deeply offensive, and that has been going on for a pretty long time."

What is to interesting about that, hutchins? Seriously?
Like Brown, the only thing I found interesting was the manner in which Stephanopoulos "interviewed".
