Senator B. Obama
Only one problem - he ain't on the committee.
Being a little harsh, aren't we? These two guys have been out
campaigning very hard, under very close scrutiny, for a very long time.
For every gaff Obama makes, I can give you one that McCain makes. Get
over it, one of these men will be the next POTUS. Obama may not be on
the Senate Banking Committee, but he was a sponsor of the Iran Sanctions
Enabling Act of 2007. In it, were provisions that were just passed by the
Banking Committee.

McCain is qualified: he was a P.O.W. Because of that, he knows that Iraq
and Afghanistan share a border.


Well, I've made up my mind not to get into political arguements, and
I'm not jumping into a fray now.

however I thought this article from the Chicago Tribune was
interesting.

all I can say is "maybe...maybe not"

beats me. I don't know.

I like McCain as a person, but he's just too far over the hill and I
think would be a dangerous choice for POTUS because of that and because
he is too closely wedded to the failed policies of the Bush Administration.
