I went with Obama. Why would you people stand in line for hours, especially voting early? I drove to my polling place, voted, talked to two friends, paid my water bill next door and drove home in less than 30 minutes.
Missouri Doesn't have early voting....Just absentee voting.... |

Exactly.
It took me a month to get a drs. appt. No way I'm cancelling.
You do know that by law, your employer does have to give you time off from work to vote. Glad you took advantage of early voting though. |

Before all the debates I was all for McCain. Then he picked Palin as his VP. I figured this was his game plan to get all of Hillary's votes. So as the debates went on and Palin kept running her mouth and making a fool of her self I said defiantly not VP materail. As I watch the VP and President Debates McCain and Palin looked to me as they were making a ass of them self's. Palin with her "Mavericks" and McCain with "Joe the Plumber". As the debates went on it looked to me that McCain was looking worse every time. As I watched the debates I was growing more and more on Obama. I seen my self agreeing with the different topics that he was bringing up during the debates. One of the things that I don't agree with is how Obama is that he wants to pull the troops out of Iraq. But all and all I like Obama. I don't like any of the VP's god forbid something should happen to McCain or Obama I don't think Palin or Biden could fill in as President.  Fair enough. You took your time . listened to the issues and picked the best of the two. Mucho respect here for that. I was on the fence for most of the election becuase of my hatred of the last admin . Once again the Dems have not given us anyone of quality to vote for. Once I listened to the debates and realized I was not going to vote for Bush or Palin but John McCain........John Got my vote. The Palin thing still bothers me but at least she's honest. I DO NOT like Joe Biden anymore then DICK Cheney. (What a perfect first name huh?) Either way the Change in giverment will be welcome as GW goes down as one of the worst presidents in History. |

QFT. And if it's found that Bush profited in any way from the high gas prices, he should be thrown in jail. |

Until a major overhaul of the voting system occurs, I refuse to vote or participate in the election process. Our voting system is suited for 1850, and even for those times it probably sucks.
I want to log-in, enter in my name and SSN #, fill out an online ballot, hit "Submit" and be done with it in less than 5 minutes. There is no reason why this cannot occur. If you say "someone could hack it", tough shit - get some excellent programmers and security systems in place.
Until this happens, there is no way anyone of you can be guaranteed that your vote was counted or accurately tabulated. A 3.5% Margin of Error or more from any individual precinct is reprehensibly unacceptable.
NOT voting is what we need to be doing in order for the system to change. Voting in record numbers only guarantees the same broken, shitty, time-wasting, inaccurate voting systems are still used.
