2008 Presidential Election: Who are you voting for?

[Kevin]

That was me. I was a pretty solid McCain supporter for a long time (after Ron Paul failed to get the nomination). I gave the guy a closer look and I sincerely think that the guy has become so cynical with respect to his views and positions that he's dangerous to have in a position of power. The man's waffling makes John Kerry look like the Pope (who doesn't waffle, ever).

Obama, on the other hand is such an unknown quantity to me. I don't like the specifics of his plans, but this recent banking crisis has led me to rethink a lot of my ideas as to whether a free-market economy can function alongside the American government who I suppose is dead-set on bailing out incompetently run companies who pay their executives 47-million dollar severance packages in exchange for running the company into the ground.

In 2006, I would have been a McCain supporter, 100%. Today? He's making me question whether or not I can vote for him. It's a good thing I live in Oklahoma where McCain is favored to win by +10%, or I'd have a bit more of a dilemna.

I'm definitely going to vote because I'm interested in how some of our more local elections are turning out.
