You can't take Rev. Wright or age off the table.

The truth is, Obama went to that racial, hate-filled church on purpose. It is part of his fabric and he should be held accountable for his poor character associations.

McCain's age is a factor as well. If he has a clean bill of health, then that is fine. However, there are age related problems (Alzheimers, hearth failure, stroke, etc.) that could be a factor in short order.

I agree, the larger policy issues are more scary. Obama's issues include being pro-abortion (including partial birth), no foreign affairs experience, repeated mistakes on who he associates with, radical foreign leaders who support him (Iran, Venezuala, Hamas, Hezbolah and Taliban to name a few), the most liberal voting record in Congress, his fervor for supporting carbon taxes (He said we can no longer eat what we want, keep our houses at 72 degrees without other countries permission), his desire to raise everyon'e taxes and his proposals, so far, will cost American's an extra $1.4 trillion dollars over a four year term.

McCain's issues include; supporting the global warming crowd, despite what 31,000 scientists say, increasing taxes to decrease carbon emissions(less freedom and prosperity), closing Guantanamo, support for a socialist agenda.

Unfortunately, this year, we have a choice between a popular, well-trained Marxist and a hot-headed, socialist. Our only hope is to get a split Congress to create deadlock for four years until some real leaders emerge.

When the government is locked up, then freedom prevails. When all branches are the same party, new laws are passed and government gets larger. Freedom is truly at risk!

Welcome back GCPatriot. Don't tell anyone but I sort of missed you. But I digress, I think the idea of

change is intimidating no matter what you do. Given the right congress both men have capability of becoming one of the "greatest" figures ever to sit in the oval office.
