I would love to be able to vote for McCain, but just can't. He keeps talking about being a "Maverick", and shaking up Washington, but his record just doesn't support that. He votes along party lines and with George Bush 90% of the time. Plus his pick of Sarah Palin isn't putting "Country First". Does anyone in their right mind think she is best choice to be his VP? He picked her for one reason, to try to win an election. Obama is far from perfect, but he's about as opposite of George Bush you can get, and I'm willing to take the chance on "Change".
Right. Maverick or not, too many people are forgetting that you have this little group of people at the other end of Pennsylvania Ave. that are called collectively (I think this is right) the Congress. And I think I'm right again that it is only this group on the federal level that can pass laws and appropriate money.
