Thanked: 656
If I were US citizen I would vote for Obama. I think McCain is too old, choses the wrong allies (Palin) and he would continue Bush policies which have caused more problems than they solved. Both to the US and the world.
If McCain wins and dies within 4 years the US is gonna have a total nitwit as a President.Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose. Jean-Baptiste Alphonse Karr.

I think Gary is a spoiler to McCain's disadvantage in this SRP poll!

You mean like the Pat Buchannon fiasco in 2000?

Yeah or the Ross Perot fiasco in '92! Buchanon didn't actually make much of a splash though in 2000 did he? Originally Posted by Bruno

No, but if I recall correctly, there was something with an unintuitive ballot layout which caused people to punch the hole for Pat Buchannon instead of Al Gore. Originally Posted by hoglahoo

Perhaps it would be better to compare Gary's influence on this poll with Nader's influence in 2000 (or 2004?), since the votes lost to pat were on accident, but the votes lost to nader were a consequence of his candidature.Til shade is gone, til water is gone, Into the shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath.

I never thought I'd utter these very words, but... she would be worse than Bush. Originally Posted by Kees
