What do you think the outcome of this election will be?

[Reverend Rick]

tell me again - who is going to pay the ten trillion dollar national debt that the last three republican presidents have run up?

Thank you for answering my question VOR. Obama plans on continuing deficit spending for his pet projects right?

I'm not going to waste my breath trying to explain why small business owners are going to get screwed royal on taxes under Barrack Obama's plan. It is quite apparent that many of you along with your Messiah have no clue about running a small business and employing folks and keeping the books in the black.

If one more person talks about Barack Obama being the Messiah to his supporters, I will go insane. The implication that G-d-fearing people, be they Christian or Messianist, are renouncing Yeshua-Jesus for Barack Obama goes far beyond insulting.

As opposed to drinking the Bush-aid superficially rebranded as McCainade? Already proven poisonous, yet people still feel compelled to suck it down by the cartoon Jesus mascot on the carton.

Heathen I love that avatar, what a marvelous choice you made. Makes me not care about the election at all.... I'd certainly vote for you, Oh excuse me you aren't a candidate though...I'm just looking at the avatar.....My it is certainly warm in here.....

I don't know what it will be, but I'm hoping that Obama will win. I'm sick of republicans screwing up our country. Give the dems a turn to screw it up.

Nothing is going to change. Higher taxes on the wealthy? Think about it? Wealthy people don't need income. If you close your business doors and quit investing, your income will be zero. Tell me again how all these people are going to get tax cuts, free health insurance when the rich folks decide to quit investing?

The rich will never decide to quit investing.

I'm beginning to get a slight tingling or sense that you might possibly be opposed to Obama, Rick.

On TV news, I saw McCain tell a woman from whom he took back a mike after she asserted that Obama was an Arab, at a big meeting somewhere, that no, Obama was a decent family man. Maybe I picked him up wrong but it seemed as if he thought the two (i.e. decent family man and Arab) were incompatible. Then I read about an African American camera man at a McCain rally in Florida being told 'sit down boy'.
Could one outcome of this election might be that the US becomes less integrated than before?

 

[Jayhawker Soule]

Surprise! An election race between a young Afro-American liberal and an old caucasian conservative may be polarizing.

 

[Sunstone]

As someone who lives in Illinois and will be voting for the man, let me say that I believe him to be little more than an intelligent and effective centrist enabled by an exceptionally intelligent and effective political machine. He has done exceedingly little to warrant the title genius - far less, for example, than had President Clinton when he ran for his first term or, for that matter, Hillary Clinton today.

Of course, compared to Bush he may well appear to be a genius, but compared to Bush the same might be said of Texas roadkill.

At this point, I think you're underestimating him. But you could be right. I'll wait and see.

Thank you for answering my question VOR. Obama plans on continuing deficit spending for his pet projects right?

Nice try, Rick, but I didn't answer your question. I posed one for you.

You avoided answering it, so let me answer it for you. Those of us on this board that are fortunate enough to live for the next 40 years, our children, and our grandchildren, will all be living in a society that must make hard decisions on what they will do without, while STILL paying higher taxes. This is a DIRECT result of the deficit spending of the last three Republican presidents, coupled with the painfully ludicrous idea of supply side economics.

For you to state that Obama's economic plan will require deficit spending, while implying that McCain's will not, is absurdity.

The reality is that, in light of the horrible condition of our economy, things like universal health care is now off the table. Unfortunately, that is not going to be the only casualty of these last 30 years. We are getting ready to go through an extended time of tightening our belts, while having to work harder.

Listening to you try to lay this off on Obama is like watching Palin stand in front of a camera and make the claim that the Troopergate report found her completely innocent. Surely she wouldn't do something so brazenly stupid - would she?

Oh wait - I guess she did.

 

[Autodidact]

Both candidate's proposals incur a deficit, with McCain's being a little bigger of the two.

Are the Obamanites aware of this yet?

Oh please, can we get real here? Both sides suck at a balanced budget. Neither side holds any high ground here.
