according to wikipedia,

Palin created 114,697 cracks.

Being a POW only puts John McCain in touch with prisoners in jail. Does he think that American Workers are living under the same conditions as prisoners?

Maybe John McCain thinks that there are only two classes of Americans, those in jail and those who make over $5,000,000.00.

"One house, One spouse" is not quite accurate. Joe Biden was married to Neilia Hunter and is married to Jill Tracy Jacobs. With a five year period mourning his first wife's death, while John McCain got a marriage license before he divorced Carol Shepp, you could say:

One house at a time, one spouse at a time

but that is a poor bumper sticker.

The difference is that Obama may not be fighting against Afganistan, like the British, Russians, and Bush did. I hope that he will be fighting against the people who attacked us.

Then Obama looses the Wicked Witch vote.

Living in Chicago, my decision was an easy one. After all, we had elected Carol Moseley Braun, the FIRST female black Senator in US history! After the republicans claimed that she had meet with the wrong African dictator (as opposed to one of the right African dictators), she lost to Peter Fitzgerald. Peter Fitzgerald then (against the wishes of the republicans) recommended Patrick Fitzgerald (no relation) for US Attorney. When Patrick Fitzgerald went after the republicans in power in IL, from the Commercial Drivers License testers, all the way to the ex-Governor George Ryan (who is rotting in jail now, waiting for a pardon from GWB), Peter Fitzgerald decided not to run. When Carol decided not to run for Senator, it eventually ended up with a choice of Barack Obama or the carpetbagger Alan Keyes. Talk about a no-brainer! So, I had already voted for Barack before he ran for the Democratic Party's candidate for President.

My best example of why I would vote for him (as opposed to voting for him by default) is that when he was in the state legislature, he sponsored and led a new law where all homicide interrogations by police in Illinois MUST be videotaped. He convinced both Democrats and Republicans to vote unanimously for it! That wasn't easy. I plan on researching that law and posting more details about it.

There are only about 14 million Dittoheads, versus 300 million Americans.

That is less than 5%.

He is just a big fish in a very little pond.

Even being a successful Naval Aviator is not an indicator that one should be President.

The "TOP GUN" pilot who shot down the most enemy planes over Vietnam was Randal "Duke" Cunningham, who is sitting in JAIL with I believe the longest sentence every received by a congresscritter.

He helped contractors take money from the DOD for shoddy work, which put our troops in danger!

On the other hand, being a poor pilot does not mean that one should NOT be President. This is just too "nuanced" for the public to deal with, so I think that Obama is correct not to go there.
