I Dont Get It... Why Vote For Mccain??????

o don't get why anyone would vote for the guy.l it is obvious he is just like bush. aside from all the hype bush sucks, he single handily messed up our economy.

Seriously, its not that he did the whole iraq war or even the needed afghan war. What he did was allow company to rape american by subcontracting out most of the work to private companies. But not just that he gave them contracts where for every dollar they spend they get around $1.50 back. SO what did these companies do they got the best hotels for there employees, the best food, worked them when they didnt have to, pay them top dollar. and bush let them, then to pay the outstanding cost he turned around and got billions of dollars of loans which weaken the USA dollar and caused our economy to weaken.

Mccain has admitted that he has no idea about anything when it comes to the economy, he thinks most Americans make $5million a year, he has no idea how many homes he owns, and he surrounds himself with econmic advisers that call Americans whiners....i really dont get why anyone would vote for him, he seems like a puppet that just there, someone who just wants the job to to say hey i got the job now what????? he has no clue about anything he only knows he is super rich....

obama on the other hand grew up poor, had to work when he was younger, was never rich, lived on food stamps, has seen, first hand, the effects and bulling that medical insurances can have on you. He really is a poor person who through education and hard work got to where he is at. Not because he is super rich, not because of who his dad knows. but because of his commitment and hard work. I am sorry i dont get why anyone would vote for mccain?????
And mccain choosing that chick for vp. To me it feels like a slap in the face to most women like look i got a girl on my team now all you dumb females vote for me. He is just playing a game, it seems like his campaign is about focusing on flaws of his opponent instead of the positives about himself....maybe he dont have any i dunoo...

 

It's clear that you won't vote for Mccain anyway. Why ask such a question?

Will you change your mind if you get some valid and logical reasons

 

Are saying that women should not be in politics?

 

no im just saying i want ot know why anyone would choose him....regardless of who his running mate is i mean i personally woulds rather have anyone isntead of him, what do you se ein him?

 

no im saying it seems that he only picked her for women votes, i mean there are alot more qualified women for the job, the women never has been in the senate!!!! its a different ball game its like hiring a hock player to play football????

 

I suppose people would vote for McCain because they really think the last 8 years have been really great just like McCain they think the "economy is strong." ie people who are completely out of touch with reality.

 

I think he picked her to strengthen his stance with the christian conservatives. Lets keep in mind that McCain only sides with the Republican party 88% of the time based on his voting record. He is considered to be one of the more liberal Republicans out there. The only thing standing between christians and Obama was the myth that he might be muslim, it wasn't the favorable stances John McCain has up until this point. The Republican party needs the christian voters to win. Up until now, I don't think many people liked either choice and that wouldn't be very favorable for McCain.

I will vote for McCain based on the values that his VP has as well as because I just don't want Obama as the President. There are some things I don't like about McCain, but I do think he is the lesser of two evils.

 

bcoz u dont want to

anyways obama is gonna win a landslide victory

p.s. i am no american, but i see how the media is covering the campaigns

 

What? Are You serious? What has Obama done to help the economy? Where was Obama at? Go ahead and say it. The Democrats have not done squat. Why Don't you list the Obama record you listed before so we can see what he has done?

 

Nobody in their right mind will vote for McCain..... the guys about as bright as ...... a rock.

 

Agree for the most part with your first paragraph*** and respect your right to the second paragraph.

***I would only say there is a good deal more than the "Muslim myth" that troubles Christian conservatives about Obama. But excellent summary of the dynamics, in my opinion.

 

What are you talking about? George W. Bush has been President for the last 8 years and he has been an absolute disaster. John McCain wants to continue the same policies. Why would they work over the next 4 years when they've been such a failure over the last 8 years?

Barack Obama's economic policies will be quite similar to those of Bill Clinton in the '90s and as we all know, the '90s were a great time economically for this country.

 

Have you forgotten that Mr Obama has been in Washington and so has the democrats? List what Obama has done as a senator to straighten out the economy,. Are you saying that Obama and the band of democrats just bow down to Bush and do everything that Bush asked? I did not know that Bush had mind control over the Dems.

We agree that Clinton did reap the benefits of what Regan created. Obama may have the same economic skills as Carter.

 

I do not agree that Clinton did reap the benefits of "Regan."

Do not put words in my mouth.

Obama has been in Washington as one of 100 Senators. To blame the bad economic times on him and not on the President is utterly ridiculous. Do you know we are wasting 10 billion dollars a month on an unneeded war in Iraq? If Obama had been President we wouldn't have wasted a single penny there. Obama's judgment will save this country billions of dollars and thousands of lives.

 

You are right, I shouldn't have put the "only" reason. But I have had a hard time convincing some people in my area that he's not muslim. But as you made note of, he has some other stances that would definitely not be popular stances among christians. His abortion stance being one of them.

 

That is where you and I Differ. The three branches are equally guilty and to think not is utterly ridiculous. Why do we even have a senate if they can do nothing like the Dems have done? How many Dems are in the Senate? Are they all mindless?

 

Im voting for Mccain for several reasons

1. Bush has not been as bad as people like to make him out to be.
2. The president is not in control of the economy so Bush cannot be blamed for that.
3. McCain has a lot more experience and is bipartisan at times. He appeals to a lot of people. Biden himself thinks McCain would be a good president.
4. His security credentials are better then Obamas.
5. Obama is not this new candidate of change. He is just as corrupt as everybody else.
6. Obama supports national health care.
7. McCain voted for stem cell research while being against abortion.
8. Palin is more hope and change filled then Obama ever has been.
9. Palin is conservative and McCain as stated is moderate. I fall in that range.
10. McCain\'s Iraq plan does not involve quitting.

 

Are you voting for McCain because of his good qualities or [at least partly] because of Obama's perceived negative qualities? Do you feel that mc-cain could stand and win on his own virtues alone?
Do you think McCain would be still as good a choice, if Obama didn't have the negative qualities that you perceive?

 

Nobody can mess up a $13 trillion per year economy by themselves. Nobody. Not even the demon George W. Bush.

There are quite a few economists out there who don't think the President has all that much power when it comes to the economy.

 

I wouldn't quite go that far. I think Bush hasn't exactly helped the economy any. Gas prices are skyrocketing and Bush hasn't done a single thing to try and get our country converted to alternative fuel. The war on terror has put our country in a huge deficit. I'm not saying that it has been totally his fault, I think it just hasn't been something that was focused on up until recently. In fact, a year ago when most of us blue collar americans were already feeling the crunch on the economy, Bush was out there stroking his ego of how well the economy was doing. It wasn't until it was undeniable that he even backed off of that.
