    Why are you voting for McCain?
    cutie4u says (21 Feb '10)

    Hello, I thought I would post this blog because I've seen some people around here saying that they were going to vote for McCain and I was just sort of curious on their reasons? I dont really want this to be another debate/arguement or messy political thing and I hope I'm not sticking my foot in my mouth but I just really am curious because I'm sure I dont know everything their is to know about McCain but hes said that hes voted with Bush 90 % of the time, and I just really dont get that, because does that mean that people voting for McCain thought Bush was a good president? I personally just think hes going to be for the rich people but I dont want to insult anyone because thats not what I'm trying to do I'm just trying to get peoples opinions on this, maybe I missed something on him. Thanks hope no one is offended but the election is coming up soon and I would like to get more info.

yeah I cant believe the election is only 7 days away it seemed like it would take a lifetime to get here. Yeah all that matters is that people vote and I think its going to be quite a turnout this year.

I'm voting for McCain because I believe in everything he stands for. As far as president Bush, He has been a great president! He also has been proctecting our asses since 2001! but not too many people can see that, all they see is hatred for the man, and I find that very very sad.

I'm voting for McCain for the following reasons;

#1...McCain will NOT negotiate with insane murdering terrorists. Negotiation with terrorists has proven for 1000's of yrs, including in our lifetime, to only breed more terrorism & dictatorship. Attempts to negotiate with terrorists has not once been successful by any country in the World. It is world policy to not negotiate with terrorists, not just the US. If you allow terrorists to terrorize you into negotiating, they win, & we all lose, including life as we know it, life literally...period. Give them an inch, they'll return to take a million miles. Just as you don't give in to a child throwing a tantrum, you don't give in to a terrorist flying murdering bombs!

Obama has stated publicaly he will attempt to negotiate with know terrorists/countries. :(

#2...McCain has spent his entire adult life making sacrifices for all Americans, including spending yrs as a POW during the Vietman war, followed by more than 25 yrs in public office, elected a United States Congressman in 1982, held two terms, decided to become a US Senator, was elected in 1986, & was a US Senator until running for President.

#3...#2 gives McCain the experience a President of the United States should be required to have before holding the most powerful office in the world. Consider this...Would you want your child being taught & led by an educator/teacher of which had little to no experience in teaching? Would you want to be treated in the ER by those who had no Dr or Nurses experience?

Obama simply doesn't have the experience or education from experience needed to be President of the US. On the job training, learn as you go...is NOT acceptable for the most powerful position in the world!! Experience is taught often by learning from mistakes & failures. I don't want a President who is acquiring his world leader experience & knowledge by making his mistakes & failures while holding that very positio

First, yes, I do believe given all circumstances that took place during the Bush Presidency, of which, no other President in history has had to endure &/or attempt to resolve...that he overall has been a good President. He has been criticized & wrongfully accused for things he's not done. That's not my own opinion, that comes from facts available in Federal voting records available to the public.

I'll put it this way, as politics & life in general work upon the same principle...no one person can be blamed, or held accountable, or accept credit for success all on their own. It takes teamwork, & our governement is a team effort. Unfortunately, we have two parties of which constantly care more about party loyalty than teamwork for the betterment of all Americans.

Len Dawson, Hall of Fame QB told me once...when an NFL team wins a game, the QB typically recieves all the glory, & when a team loses their game, the QB typically takes all the blame. The QB is the star of the team, eyes are focused on him more than any other, so on lookers often miss the mistakes made by other members of the team, which in fact resulted in the loss of their game. As well, on lookers often miss the great moves players on the team other than the QB make which resulted in the team winning. Either way...QB is the focus of glory or blame.

The same is true with our governement, family, work, school, etc...failures & success' involve teamwork in one way or another.

In governement, the President is the QB, Congress & Senate the team, but more often than not, they're not on the same team as they are elected to be...that of the American taxpayer. They focus their efforts with being divided, on either a Rebublican or Democrat Political team, with special interests of which benefit them only, rather than for an American taxpayer team. When one out numbers the other, they are the majority party of course, & typically get their way. Polititicians in
