^^^ Since this thread is supposed to be about "discuss[ing] anything & everything about this upcoming election," not just pro- and con- debates, I think you need to start a new thread if you want that kind of back-and-forth discussion. (Not that any new thread will stick to your proposed rules after a few pages. So really, why bother?)

And if you're going to do that, I think it's a mistake to exclude minor party candidates.

Exactly, since, for a number of posters, they are only supporting a third party candidate.

A more effective way to do it would be, in the new thread, just to post 5 reasons to vote for your candidate of choice.

Thanks for the link - I came out with McCain, but that's not a surprise.

So did I. That wasn't supposed to happen.

It's my belief in states' rights and a strong defense that does it to me every time.

I came out with Obama, but to be fair, I thought it was really easy to tell who said which statement, so it wasn't hard to pick the Obama ones.
