    McClain, even though he has some real crazy ideas and love wars as much as Bush, but he strike me as the more practical of the two. Obama had some grand visions but I don't see how he can find the money to achieve it.

    IMHO I feel that the color of his skin will stand in the way. McCain is white and an American War Hero, where Obama is of mixed parentage. But then if you see his polling results against Clinton, whites are for him too. It is really tough to predict if racism will raise its ugly heads. I really hope not and that both men are judged according to their merits.

    I would vote for her if I can, between Obama and Clinton, I found Clinton to be a very intelligent woman, her credentials are impeccable and her experiences in the political maneuvering inside the White House will definitely help.

    I know it's way to early but the polling right now show if Clinton is the nominee she will loose to McCain and if it's Obama then McCain looses.

    Nice analysis... I believe there are more democrats than republicans and if obama wins over clinton, he will definitely defeat McCain... the first non-white to own white house while on his term..

    ^See what i mean now? =\ About sexist people? (No offense intended.. Joseph.oliver88)

    I agree, Mickss. The things Clinton says that would help her win against Obama.. like that she has more experience, she can't say between her and McCain, since he has more experience than her too.. i think. ^_^

    I don't think you need to explain anything, you are for someone who is pro war rather than a black man who is anti war, it is ok you don't need to tell us you are racist it is just blatantly ovbious.

    I beg to differ I am condemning racism and hope that it will not rear its ugly head. Please read carefully before commenting. Appreciate it.

    As I said it dosen't matter what you are condeming, actions speak louder than words, how you can vote for a republican warlord over a black, anti war democrat bends my mind.
