All it takes and more! Anyway, not long ago, McCain had stated that he would never run for vice-president as that is a pointless job. The Vice-President plays no political role whatsoever and was invented to attract some votes. Just as an example, the term "gerrymandering" was coined after the name of a democratic vice-president and that's one of the "greatest" achievements of a vice-president that I even know of. McCain acted accordingly. He appointed a woman to get some of Hillary's votes. Got no clue whether that was smart or not but at least he had a firm position on the issue from the beginning. As to Joe Biden, I do think he is an excellent politician with a lot of influence in the NATO and very very well known in Europe. However, we all know what he thinks of Obama. The same that every politician in Europe probably thinks of him. I don't want to repeat myself though.

Presidents don't really do much anyway other than declare war and both the candidates suck.

This attitude is what drives me nuts Maria. Why is someone "stupid" for liking McCain. I would never think to belittle someone for liking Obama. I may not agree with your choice, but to insult someone's intelligence for not favoring the same candidate as you is a bit extreme and immature. We may not all have the same opinions, but the great thing is that we do have a choice.

in all fairness he is pretty much bush mkII and if people haven't sussed out what a cretin bush is in the past 8 years then maybe they aren't the sharpest...

Obama is no saint either. I could go online and cut and paste crap against him too, but what is the point? It is the choice between the evil you do know and the evil you don't know. I would never call someone stupid for supporting a particular candidate. There is no excuse for that on either side.

I agree BUT - the Republican ticket is anti-choice and anti-education. You are a teacher and you have a daughter - how do you reconcile that?

I was trying to remember if Mouse was a teacher. It comes back to me now. My guess is that the negatives of McCain aren't quite as bad as the negatives of Obama. Pretty simple. I'm not keen on gay marriage nor do I think abortions or choice is always correct, but those negatives are far better that some of McCain's negatives. I think that's why I get frustrated with my fiance. The first thing she looks at when choosing a candidate is if the candidate is pro-choice or "pro-life" as they say. She automatically passes the candidate off if they are pro-choice. I don't know... I just can't stand that.
