And that, my friends, more or less sums up this election.
I don't like McCain.
I loathe preppy-boy-Amercrombie-and-Fitch Obama.
But it's a question of whether America's youth can set down their Legos and easily infatuated-by-looks females can be intellectually honest and see through his looks and manicured-metrosexuality for the socialist he is, or whether they just plain don't give a damn about their responsibility of being a citizen of a democracy and therefore their required stewardship of this nation, and will vote for Obama because he's "pretty."
So save yourself days of your finite life and don't bother reading anymore speculation or watching the "latest campaign coverage." My analysis (and Joe's) is basically all there is to it.

Besides, apparently to add insult...Obama has said "I don't believe in term limits." Scary... and he was a former constitutional lawyer, (who failed miserably).
That's all I have to say for now.
McCain/Palin '08
Howdy.
Actually, at this point, I have to diverge with your opinion.
See, I don't believe it's a matter of people being easily infatuated with appearances or charisma. You'll always have people on both sides of any issue or election who vote based on height, hair, or whatnot. I don't think there are any more in this election than any other.
Obama's supporters believe in socialism. I don't know how long it's been since you've wandered toward a university, but the thing that truly scares me is how many people actually agree and believe with his platform and his stances.
I wish I could just kind of swat away their views as just shallow-minded approaches to picking candidates, but I think we're honestly seeing the liberal perspective this election - that no man owns his own means of production or the fruits thereof, that anyone who is not white, male, and christian is a minority and needs to be subsidized and protected, and that anyone who doesn't agree with them is evil.
Not surprisingly, the liberal ideal is the same ideological and economical platform that has historically resulted in genocide. Communism and socialism always have that effect - at one point, their belief system finally hits a wall when they realize (if they even truly realize it) that people are inherently capitalist. That's when they start trying to "correct" and "fix" people beyond the normal means of indoctrination.
Now is a good time to print off copies of Ayn Rand's speech from Francisco in Atlas Shrugged on money and start handing them out :)
Incidentally, my "word verification" word is "ermypgw." I don't think it's a word if the consonants outnumber vowels by a 6 to 1 ratio.
I couldn't find where to email this to you, but check out the site:

This was made for people like you (and I).
I think the Capt has it right.
"Substance" not "slick"
"Character not charisma"
"Reality not rhetoric"
"Guts" not "gush"
"A career of advancing change" not "change to advance a career".
I do not know how many times I've had to explain this to you over the years, Captain, but I'll do it again.
We're citizens of a republic, not a democracy. And I'me very glad it is so.
"Not surprisingly, the liberal ideal is the same ideological and economical platform that has historically resulted in genocide."
I wish Americans would stop hijacking the word "liberal" and applying it to big government jackoffs like Obama and the rest of the Democrats.
The cause of freedom is not well served by expropriating the word for it and attaching it to socialism.
