Some of you might take this as an offense but I really mean it in all sincerity.
The best and what is obviously becoming the only reason to vote for Obama is so that we can finally end the consistent blaming of Bush and the Republicans for everything wrong in the world today and start blaming Obama and the Democrats.
You can be assured it is absolutely going to happen because the Democrats have no real solutions, and Obama is all about speeches. If he becomes President he will soon see that Washington DC is not an easy place to change. Even if Obama wants change it is not the same change that the corrupt politics of Washington DC want.
The only thing that changes there is who is in power and where the corruption, what party the corruption takes a stronger hold of. For those of you of all political affiliations you are fools to think change in Washington will happen. I have watched this wave of alleged change too many times to be fooled by either Republicans or Democrats.
They are all feeding at the public trough and happy to do so at the expense of Joe and Jane Public because we let them. We welcome them with open arms. We then whine about how bad things are and that the party in charge is taking us down the wrong path. Eventually there is a call for change loud enough that we kick the jerks out and bring any new ones just as bad as the last group.
If Obama is elected it will be interesting to see how long before the media turns on him. Especially when he gets bogged down in the politics of Washington and is able to do nothing to change the most corrupt city in our nation. The place where everything has a price including the publics welfare. Mark my words, this is just the beginning of another cycle in the political world of Washington DC, same thing different party.
The country appears ripe for socialist policies and the nanny, and with the Congress predicted majority democrat, The Obamarxist will have no trouble pushing his expensive agendas through. There must be enough losers in the country now who have the same mindset and looking forward to the government dole and "free" healthcare, and asundry other "freebies" off the backs of those who have worked hard to become successful. Shame, shame.

I think I agree on this one. Obama promises change, yet the president does not have the power to enforce the policies he wants. We've already seen clear evidence that the House majority of Democrats supports Republican policies (the war bill that just passed?). It'll be a tough 4 years, regardless of which candidate wins.
When a new president takes over the hwite house they set a tone as far as policies.
Bush tone/policies was the war. eveything he sign/speak about is funding the war.
Obama tone/policies will be Healthcare/Education/Family/Peace/Economy/new energy.
McCain tone will be: War,War,War,War,more war then fund the war and help the country who we just destroyed build back their country.
Only problem is once Obama has shamed his party and has long gone he will most likely have left some dangerously liberal judges to carry on his ruin.
which is unfortunately about the only reason i will support mccain instead of voting libertarian or writing in ron paul
