So which candidate do you like and why?

Obama?
Clinton?
McCain?
Reagan's corpse?

Personally, I think Obama is my favourite. He doesn't seem corrupt and generally appears to want to do right (in a left sort of way). Though I don't agree with his stance on gun control. (I likes my guns)

Can't possibly stomach voting for any of the big-party candidates.

I don't know if the Constitution (Whoa - what a bunch of whack jobs)Libertarian Party candidate will be on the ballot in Ohio, but that's where my vote would go today.

I'm writing in thunder3davis for president this election.

But seriously, my decision is up in the air at the moment. It will be interesting to see how the south votes, however, given this election's candidates.

I would've voted for Hillary in the primary if I were still a registered Democrat, instead of a registered Libertarian.

So I voted for Christine Smith, Libertarian chixor.

I'm leaning towards Obama myself. I don't agree with him entirely but more so then McCain and I don't believe any one else has a chance.  :|

Oh?  Is that how it's going to be?  You just disappear for 8 months and then pop back in with your political opinions and we're supposed to bake you bread and give you a back rub for your trouble?

Obama scares the bejeezus out of me.  His voting record is among the most liberal socialist of any in the Senate, and his comments about how he intends to run things just go to show to me that he still doesn't understand how politics works.  He's also an idealist.  Idealists are extremely dangerous, especially when they have a majority in both the House and Senate.

Clinton is a politician, with all the baggage associated therewith, but she knows how the game is played (i.e. her vote is ultimately for sale.)
McCain is also a politician, with all the associated baggage.  He seems to be the least evil of the three, but it's still like having to choose your method of slow and painful execution.

I still don't know how I'm going to vote, but if Paul is on the Indiana primary ballot, I will vote for him.

I voted Obama in the primary.

I really didn't see a point to taking a third party since it's really between Hilary, Obama or McCain. I agree more with Obama than McCain and feel that Hilary's "my way or the highway" attitude will just divide the powers that be and get nothing done. She's un-compromising and right now we need someone that's going to unite us as a people through some compromise to get what needs to be done, done.  Obama is a good speaker and will do good by the democrats AND republicans to fix what needs fixing and ensure he gets a real shot at a second term.

So what I'm trying to say is....Obama.

Hi.


You mean I'm not actually going to get bread and a back rub? Well that sucks.

Back on topic though, I agree with reimero, I like Paul, but I also agree with pickled kitten where you don't stand a chance if you aren't Obama, Clinton or McCain.

At this point, it's voting for the lesser evil. I don't really like any of them, except Obama, and liking a politician doesn't exactly get "the job" done. I'm really just waiting to see how things play out before making a finalized decision, I guess.

Wow. Concur.

 Where in Indiana, may I ask? I have family there; in Marion County, Jay County, and ...Middlebury (not sure what county that's in.)
 Redkey
 Dunkirk
 Portland
 Muncie
 recognize any of those?

South Bend.  Not terribly far from Middlebury, but a decent distance from the rest.
