I personally find Obama to be to inexperianced. On his biography, it says "Obama worked as a community organizer and practiced as a civil rights attorney". Apparently [not saying it's true] the biggest thing he's organized was a pingpong match or something. I highly doubt it though, but if true, wow.
Not only that, his interviews are horrible when he doesn't have a speech set up right infront of him. I heard him on this radio broadcast, and he stt-ttutters like mad. I would provide an example, but I don't remember the station. I know that shouldn't be a factor, but I would rather a president who can think on the spot in quick situations.
I do think that Obama has the right idea, and a heart that truely wants to make America better. But seriously, his views change every minute. First, in October 07, "Decisions about [gay] marriage should be left to the states." But back in 06, "Opposes gay marriage; supports civil union & gay equality." It makes no sense. He opposes gay marriage, but is in favour for equality.
Also, picking Joe Biden as a running mate was a good and bad idea. Good, for no negative publicity about the guy, not a lot of people know who he is, unless you're in tune with Washington politics. Bad, for no publicity at all, unlike Mrs.hockey mom Sarah Palin.

Now, on to McCain. I have a problem with his pro-life policy, unlike Obama's way to find a middle ground. Abortion is a touchy subject, but no one has the right to tell a woman what to do with her body. I could go into full view about this, but that's being off topic. There's a few more issues I'd like to bring up, but I don't have much time.

What I like about McCain, is his consistancy.
NOW, Sarah Palin. McCain picked her as his running mate, and she seems to be getting good feed back. But what I hate about her is all this media attention she's getting. GET OVER IT ETALK, her glasses are NOT trend worthy, she's a political VP, not a drunken celebrity. I think why she's getting good feedback is due to the fact a lot of women can relate to her- her "hockey mom" reference, pregnant teenage daughter, having a child with Down syndrome, etc. This, should have NO effect to the election, but of course, IT DOES. People will vote according to the media attetion, and that is why McCain and Obama in my opinion, are neck and neck. I was watching CNN last night, and one woman liked Pain, saying "the white house is full of old men, having Palin will refresh America with her youthful spirit". If I find the exact quote, I will post. Judging the election on age is the stupidest thing. Sure, personality draws in positive views, but if you have noreal eye on the issues, you should not be voting.

Honestly, I'm stuck between both. But America will decide. I am Canadian, and not able to vote, but I hope America makes a good choice.
