No foreign policy and Iran held hostages until hours after Ronald Reagans inauguration. We don't need inexperience. Now more than ever, we need someone who knows what they're doing and that is NOT Barack Obama. He doesn't even make decisions unless it's for political reasons. What is he going to do when he holds the power of the U.S. in his hand? He scares me too much.

We just don't believe in him as a future leader ... Sorry but we lost that months ago. Hopefully he will make the right choice...I thank that having a Kennedy on his team is just a token.

There are too many reasons why I don't like Barack Obama and wont' vote for him. McCain is a moderate, not a conservative. He has a history of working across party lines and of voting against the die hard republicans when necessary. I can live with that. He's a well respected Senator who has a long history that shows his experience. Barack Obama is a career candidate who used dirty Chicago Politics to get where he is.

HRC can compete for President at least in 2016 only if you make Obama win this time. If he loses, she will be branded as a spoiler and her influence in the party will be badly hit. He will be competing again and again for Democratic nomination beating her all the times. This time he did not win places like California because Obama was little unknown both in the party and among democratic voters, but that will not happen next time. With gradually sagging influence in the party, Clinton will neither be able to raise the money or win votes as she did now. Supporting Barack and make him win is the only way she can gain respect and win the support of his constituencies which are essential to her victory in future. For winning, the support from blue collar voters, women, and hispanics only are not sufficient; she needs blacks, and the young and college educated people as well. Just remember that there are people like you in Obama's camp who would have been thinking like you, had the nomination been stolen from him after his sizable lead in delegates- the only metric that has been agreed upon by all as the valid metric for nomination before the race started, Even in the worst case scenario of full reinstatement of Florida and Michigan (with allocation of 0 delegates from Michigan to him), he was still leading in the delegates by a margin of 80. With such a lead, it is only but fair to make him the nominee. HENCE, PLEASE USE YOUR REASON AND FAIR JUDGEMENT, AND VOTE FOR OBAMA. if you are a Rush Lumaugh' style republican or a person committed not to vote for a black man whatever his credentials are, I will not even try to convince you.

He ran his campaign on the "no race" issue, but anytime anything was brought up about Obama is was because of race. No one could question is judgement. He rode this horse all the way. Walk the talk, not ride the horse. He has virtually no experience. He voting record is almost non existent on issues that count. He was absent or "present only" on most controversial voting issues. He makes no stand!! Just rhetoric. I want someone who is experienced, willing to take a stand, and not hide behind the very cloak he insists he doesn't believe in. Why I don't like Obama.

Women will stay at home.....trust me on that. People won't even think about the McCain factor since they will be so furious at what a "Dis" that would be. If he doesn't pick Hillary he better be smart and pick someone that doesn't smack Hillary in the face. Can anyone really see Hillary campagning for Obama and another woman? TRUST me that would a MAJOR DIS. That would back fire on Obama and I would actually laugh at that one. I would be in pain for 4 years with McCain but I'd also laugh.......

JFK had very little experience. It's a plus for Obama not to have Washington experience. He brings a new vision. Looking at how he ran the campaign, he will surely have the most experienced people around him. He will be a great president. This whole "experience" debate is really stupid!
