McCain over Obama
I thought this was a very interesting poll by the New York Times regarding Democrats who will vote McCain if their candidate isn’t the nominee. I’m beginning to wonder if I will lump myself in this category. Some of the comments are particularly interesting. Take for example this one from an Obama supporter who clearly can’t make a intelligent policy argument/discussion:
Thanks for wrecking our party, Hillary. Then again, anyone who believes your bs should vote for McCain. He’s a liar, just like you, only older, and better looking.

Or this one from a Hillary supporter:
Not surprising. I am a non-democrat (ie, independent) Hillary supporter that would never pull the lever for Obama. It started with his lack of credentials, moved on to his hypocrisy and inability to take responsibility for his own actions and culminated in his racism (”typical white person”).
I’ll be voting for McCain if Hillary is not the democratic nominee in November.

Why do I think Hillary should be President of the United States? Look at the “leadership” Obama has exhibited on the disenfranchisement of the Florida and Michigan voters? He is running the clock. What a crock. And yet he is praised by both the media and his supporters for being a ray of hope amid a tumultuous world. That, my friends, is a farce. America is in the gutter because of the cronyism of George W. Bush and crew and we need someone to lead this country and the rest of the world. This man Barack Obama is nothing but talk.
Nope… as a long time Democrat, I can proudly proclaim that I’m going to vote for the person I think would be the best leader. This is the first step for all American voters to take. Get over the crap the media feeds to you, get over wedge issues, and vote for a good leader.
