    I am an anarchist living within the rules of law as much as i can. That means i never vote, now i don't live in US thank god so i don't have to. It is like choosing between pest and cholera. And faced with that i choose to let the nature have its course. First of you can never be sure about any of those two guys, whats been said in press is often lies or blown up. But one thing i do know, both of them wants to be president so much they have thrown away billions for it and years in the senate and what not. Now thats power hunger.

    In anyway i believe Obama will win, because american people are in fact quite narrow minded people (this is an OPINION of mine and not a fact!) so they think everything will be better. When in fact nothing much will change no matter who wins. One thing though that i am totally convinced of, is that are probably groups of people out there in the US that works for other causes, like a white America or Christian America, just think of secret sociaties even Bush has been in during college and stuff. Students that have later in life become powerfull with lots of money.

    Not to talk about ultra rightwing groups and everything else there is, (i aint saying this is typical US, probably will find groups like this in any country). So i think Obama will win and as soon as one of these groups have a chance they blow him to kingdom come. Thats my forsee of the future in US, sorry but true.

    Doesn't matter to me as they are both right winged in european terms (if they both would be european party's they would be on the right side of the spectrum)

    But if McCain wins he better stays alive for his whole term because Palin seems pretty uninformed to me :)

    I rather saw Hillary sitting on the throne

    Even tho i'm confident that Obama will win its kinda scary to think about that 45% or so of americans will still vote a guy who looks like he will die any moment and behind him a completely moronic woman. And that after 8 years of Bush :roll:

    But they're all for Drill Here, Drill now, for "leaving no child behind", for people not giving their money to the government in exchange for good stuff, for the Iraq war - isn't that positive?

    Just heard a radio commercial claiming Obama's health care plans will cost 50 million Americans (1/6 the entire country) health care.

    Despite it being universal healthcare.

    It then went on to accuse the plan of making a "bureaucrat" in charge of health care instead of a "doctor". You'd think the McCain campaign had never heard of an HMO or insurance company before.

    McCian reminds me far too much of bush. He's going to win.

    Current polls are 44% for McCain, 52% for Obama. It's pretty solid at this point.

    Going to vote this afternoon (have to wait for a ride).

    Lots of interesting stats/polls/pie charts :

    Get out and vote, Americans. I was at my polling place at 5:30 this morning waiting in line, there was a ton of people there. At 6:30 when the polls opened I'd guess about 250 or so people were there. Parking lots were packed full, it was excellent to see that kind of turnout.

    Hehehe. I don't dare say what i am thinking. So instead i have to ask, are we sure this isn't a kind of parody in SNL or something? Isn't famous people like sport, movie and music people meant to keep their opinion about politics for them self? I remember that girlband every one bojcotted because they said something about Bush and the war. The Dixie Chicks?

    I think it's good that they actually said what they feel. Their vote count just as much as Joe the buttcrack.
