Even though I used to be a republican, I was only happy under one republican President.
During my lifetime Ronald Reagan was the only republican that made me feel content.
Nixon said he wasn't a crook but we know better than that.
Ford pardoned Nixon and that caused him to lose to a democrat.
When it comes to the two George Bush's, it's like father like son.
The economy would be much better if neither of them had won.
If McCain wins, he'll continue the war.
If Mccain wins, he won't help the poor.
If Obama wins, he'll stop the war and he'll help the poor a lot.
Some people think McCain can be a good President but I'm afraid he can not.

Yo Randyjohnson,

This is nicely written.  I'll have to disagree about Reagan though.  He was an actor putting on a show while he robbed the people.

My rule of thumb has always been:

The only good Republican is a dead Republican.  We call them "Pubbies" here.

It's amazing how fast you can lose respect for an intellegent person. In just one sentence you can turn 50% of the people that like your work.  Sad.

I'm not an American, but I do believe that both McCain and Obama are bright, decent men and that they have the best interests of their country at heart. Their philosophies may differ but both are admirable men. May the candidate who is best for your country, win!
