Since this is your first presidential election vote, take note that ALL candidates are flip-floppers.

I have a real problem with people that say "I'm just not going to vote". People died for our right to have elections and free speech, the least we can do is honor those who've died by voting on rainy days. I hope you hear what you want from the candidate you choose, just remember there's no such thing as the perfect candidate.

Another heads up, McCain is now the party leader, not Bush. McCain stayed in line for the most part in what his leadership agreed with and spoke out when he didn't. McCain didn't vote "present" during legislative meetings because he was afraid to take a stand and **** off a potential voter, unlike Obama. At least McCain can make a stand and admit when he's wrong (like with Hagee and "sins" of his first marriage).

Soldiers, like my grandfather, died to give me the rights written in the constitution. I dont think voting for someone who isn't going to help my country would be doing them any favors. If I have to choose between two people I may not like, who would I be helping by voting?

McCain has now taken back his statements on Hagee, and calls them close friends, after he had said they where agents of intolerance. Is that admitting when youre wrong? or is that pandering to the religious right? Obama also said he didnt agree with the statements of wright, so how is he any different than McCain.

McCain has been telling many lies on his "Straight talk Express" campaign. The biggest one for me is when he said he hadnt missed a single vote on energy, and that has always been for renewable energy, when in fact he is 0-8 on voting for crucial renewable energy bills.

He is also using the Georgia conflict for political gain by saying he is friends with the georgian president, and has been for 25 years, but he cant pronounce his name. lol, great friends they are.

after the Supreme Court ruled that habeas corpus protections apply to detainees held at Guantanamo Bay, Jouhn McCain denounced it as “one of the worst decisions in the history of this country.” At a townhall in New Jersey, McCain railed against the “unaccountable judges” who made the decision. Then on the 14th of this month McCain changed his stance when he said this

ISAACSON: But you called that the worst decision in history?

MCCAIN: No I didn’t. No, no– Sometimes I’m given to a little hyperbole.
