wow... what?... so why bother even having a forum mate? . Are you dreaming of a world where people can say what ever they want without the troublesome need of making sense nor needing to justify what they believe in? ... lol we already have that!! ... (head...sand)

anyway here's what I saw today ...

Well it does seem a bit odd to start a thread talking about the US election, and then not say why you support someone.

well! After watching the third debate I think it's fair to say that the wheel has well and truly come off McCain's campaign. And he has slipped even further behind in the polls!

Polls show 79% think Obama won that debate. McCain did dreadfully. I mean, really really terribly. Fluffed his words, got angry and spiteful. Obama showed far more class and respect.

On the political forums I go on, many people think that McCain was on something (even his supporters)!

Seriously though, I think McCain has health issues. I really do. And we don't need a president with issues with his mind. He looks like he has aged 10 years just during this campaign, and we haven't even reached the election yet.

Obama is predicted to win by a mile.

In the CNN voter charts, women flatlined when McCain mentioned Sarah Palin. Simply put, this shows that women don't like Sarah Palin (which was not what McCain was hoping for when he picked her - another example of his failing health).

McCain is a condescending git. Has to have the last word constantly. And resorts to cheap and petty insults. The man is a moron.

McCain's attempts to use Joe the Plumber fell flat as well. Loved it when he was trying to make a point about potential fines for Joe's business (under Obama's administration). When asked what the fine would be, Obama said, "Zero," making a zero sign with his hands. Note to McCcain - it really would be worthwhile researching things before you try to use them against your younger and far more intelligent opponent.

Dear dear, what with Palin being found Guilty of abusing her power as governor, women votes turning away from her in droves, and McCain clearly losing the plot, this campaign is turning into a pantomime.

So your basically saying that Obama has sold himself better to the American people than McCain. Now it's time to vote Obama for that reason, I don't think so.

Whoever gets in, it will make no difference to the country as a whole. Whether powerful or not.

Turns out that 'Joe The Plumber' is a phony.
- He's not a licensed plumber
- He's not an indecisive voter
- He's a registered member of the Republican Party
- He doesn't earn enough to be affected by any tax increases
- He's nearly $2000 in arrears on taxes
- He's not trying to set himself up in business
-His name is Samuel, not Joe

Thats not all Ive said no and...

I disagree, they'll actually have someone intelligent in there for a change for one! and the effect it will have on foreign perception of the US will be massive! This is history in the making and he represents hope to the world. Not to mention his sensible and intelligent ideas on the economy and foreign policy!

I agree that George W Bush needs replacing, he's made a real mess of things while serving office but I'm not convinced that Obama or indeed McCain are really that good. I listen to some of what they both say on Sky news and I've heard it all before and I'll hear it all again. I fail to get excited, "sorry".
