I agree.

That tells me that we either have a bunch of loonies who are voting and or we are full of totally misinformed voters who do not look past there nose. All goes back to my idea that people are actually a bunch of followers who cannot make decisions base on information.
Sad that we are going that direction.

Any way McCain, Hillary or Obama wins we ALL lose many rights.
Each of these will probably pick the next supreme court justice which will inturn be giving your personal property away and so many other personal rights you used to have.

Edwards dropped out and I personally believe that both Huckabee and Paul should have dropped out before tomorrows election. They have no chance in the world of winning and are now causing the country to divide and will certainly cause the best candidate or the worst candidate votes.

Sad that we have become a bunch of pack followers who cannot make a wise decison on there own.

If you want more government in your life then go ahead, if you want illegal immigration to destroy this country even more go ahead, if you want the economy that effects every single one of us to continue to fail go ahead.

We all have the right to vote, but we all need to make choices based on what effects YOU and not what some stupid freak side show commentator tells you to do.

McCain will win on the GOP side. Obama will win on the Dem side, although this will not be settled until the convention. If it's a McCain-Obama contest, I (a Republican) will vote for Obama. If it's a McCain-Clinton contest, it's a no-brainer: I'll vote for McCain.

I agree. I think uneducated voters are one of our biggest problems. I remember back in '92 when MTV had the "rock the vote" campaign and praised Clinton so much. These were people who knew nothing about politics and real world issues, they were basically kids who thought it was cool that Bill Clinton could play a sax. I was only 13 years old at the time and even I realized it.

That goes for whomever wins on the Dem side and Rep. side (except for Paul).

You got it!!! BINGO!!!

I added a lot of comments to other posts w/o offering a prediction for tomorrow's votes..forgive me. Here it goes:

McCain, unfortunately, will do very well overall, but I expect that Romney will not have a totally awful night ( I think he will win California, but barely)

The Dem side is harder to predict, but I have to say the wicked witch from the east will do O-K, but Obama I think will take some important contests and make Hillbilly's life difficult, which I enjoy seeing. Good luck Obama.

I hate to wish ill on anyone, but I'd prefer that McCain would keel over before the sheeple make him the Republican nominee...
