Actually, am extremely disappointed and concerned. The democrats have noone qualified, their pick is a deceitful lying socialist/marxist, and a scary one at that. The GOP have chosen a bland, fence sitter, doesn't remember in what party he belongs. Very embarrassing.

Just was looking at Sarah Palin (R-AK) and Bobby Jindal (R-La), wouldn't they be a great conservative team!

Sarah Palin is sexy, just had to say that. She would make the best VP. I hope Romney picks her in 2012.

While neither was among my initial choices, I am fine that the process weeded the candidates out and left us with the current choices. I think the political process is a continuous ebb and flow, and this is where we are at today politically.

Neither candidate is talking about the issue that is at the top of most people's priorities - gas prices. They want to sling mud at each other over patriotism and faith while ignoring what really matters to the American people. Shame on Barack Obama and John McCain!

Im sory, but McCain is actually talking about how he plans to curb these problems. Obama is the one that is doing all that.

Gas prices are NOT the Presidents top priority. It is YOUR and everyone elses priority. Find a better car, drive less, drive slower/smarter, take mass transportation...and just own up to the fact that gas is expensive and will continue to stay so. If prices went back down again, people would go back to wasting it.

The presidents TOP issue should be ending the war and getting us out of this ridiculous debt that we have.
