    McCain or Obama

    If the election was held tomorrow ... Who would you vote for???

    If you like increased taxes and Government control...Then you probably like Obama...Altho I think I'd be a better president than McCain (Feel free to write me in)...I'd say he is the lesser of two evils.

    Cast your vote!!!

    The poll is anonymous for those of you who are secretive
    11
    Obama
    0%
    3
    McCain
    0%
    8

    The poll is expired.

        I agree with your post: McCain the lesser of two evils, and Doug is a better candidate.

          How about "none of the above"?

            I like what this guy stands for; just look at this platform!







            ALFRED E. NEUMAN FOR PRESIDENT

            "He is just as smart as the other candidates, and twice as popular"

            On the Issues:

            Guaranteed Health Care: ban all HMO's and medical insurance. Outlaw the American Medical Association. Change the medical deductions on the 1040 to 100%. Result: People will shop for their medical needs, thereby reducing inflated prices of pharmaceuticals, laboratories, doctors, and hospitals. After all, medical insurance is designed to guarantee that the medical industry be paid, not that people receive adequate treatment.
            Social Security: Since when?
            Education: The Government should stay out of it. Government interference only perpetuates existing stupidity.
            Welfare: Get a job.
            National Security: Who would be stupid enough to invade the U.S.? And what would they do with us if they won? Would it be any worse than what we have now?
            Congress: Cut salaries to what these idiots are worth. Minium wage for entry level.
            Protecting the public from itself: The government has no business interfering in people's lives or protecting us from our own stupidity.
            Lobbyists and Special Interests: Tax all cash flow at 50%. Tax all religious institutions that engage in politics. (separation of church and state works both ways)
            Equal Rights: Get over it.
            Personal Income Tax: Dump it. Flat tax corporations 50% of gross with no deductions
            On the Candidate

            He decided to run for office because the other candidates were all so boring.
            He has never failed at business, defrauded the Small Business Administration, sought special favors from the Government, or inhaled.
            His brother never fixed his election.
            He has no wife to cheat on.
            He is not a politician and makes no promises, which he wouldn't keep anyway.
            He has never been investigated by 60 Minutes, ATF, IRS, or the National Inquirer. He doesn't know Matt Drudge or that Coulter woman.
            Heads of State: "I don't know them. They're all foreigners anyway."
            On Reforming the Government

            I Want Your Vote on Election Day!




            Yes, I support Alfred E. Neuman for President




            But just remember: If voting could really change things, it would be illegal.

              Obama for me. As a Non-Resident Alien, I can only vote in polls, so that is where I vote. I wouldn't know why, except that I followed this questionnaire, and I ended up closest to Obama, and farthest from McCain. Only still active contenders are given, because I seem to remember I did another one of these (the same?) earlier, when I ended up with Edwards.

              I am pretty libertarian guy myself, but I know all too well that most people can only be expected to go after short term gains, if acting with a smattering of reason at all, so some cushioning is just necessary, IMO. (Well, perhaps not for the short term thinkers that got us the subprime crisis.)

              Regards,

                I think Karel should be president but I don't know how the world could handle someone so intelligent.

                      I had a very intelligent college professor who said the U.S. would be best served by a triumvirate. Therefore, I nominate Karel for President of European Affairs.

                        I heard from a Washington insider that Hillary is already positioning herself to be VP on the ticket...the Republican ticket!

                        Talk about self interest parties!

                          If that were to happen, it would spell certain victory for the Democrats.

                            I heard that myself, all the way out here in Wisconsin . . . and McCain is just the kind of disloyal Republican to do it, too.
