We will have more of the same and that means more war and domestic neglect. Think about it! Ron Paul would never have a chance. He wants to abolish Social Security. Baby Boomers will not let that happen. Wake up folks! If we do away with Social Security, the children and grandchildren of seniors will have to take care of them. Wake up folks! Are you rich enough to take care of your whole family? I'll vote for whatever Dem is put up! All I can say is, if you like Bush and the last seven years, vote Republican.

The moderate(McCain) is winning because we are so tired of all this self-righteous display going on. It's time for it to go. And if you were honest you wouldn't have to wear your faith on your forehead--people could see it in the way you act--not the banners you hold up in front of them.

Of course she "won". She had bigger name recognition. But when Senator Obama has the opportunity to campaign and people get a chance to know him, as they did in IA and SC, they like his message. If Obama had campaigned in FL, millions of young people would've heard his ideas and come out to vote. It's ridiculous to claim that Hillary won. Of course she "won". She had bigger name recognition.

I didn't and wouldn't vote for Dole because I disagreed with too many of his ideas/plans/views -- but I was impressed with him in that he was one of the rare candidates that actually seemed to believe in what he said more often than not. I respect that. McCain was the same way and I had the same respect for him, too, once. Even thought that I might vote for him, unless he came out with something that completely offended me to the core. And he did. He abandoned his independence and courage to become Bush's loyal lapdog. That's going to hurt McCain bigtime come November. McCain is no Bob Dole.

We already know that Hillary Clinton has more name recognition than Barack Obama. That is all that this election in Florida was - a popularity contest. Barack Obama has shown that when he gets the chance to show the people who he is and what he stands for, he converts voters who thought they were strongly pro-Clinton. Shame on the Democratic Party for creating this situation in Florida and Michigan, two of the most important states in the national election. If a Republican wins the national election, most of the blame lies with you. What a joke.
