O/B cause I got used to seeing those initials while having so many kids. :P Sorry I couldn't resist. I have been researching Obama since I had the shocking realization back in '04 that Bush could win again. I've been planning to vote for him for a few years.

OBAMA/BIDEN all the way! Yippeee lol

Good poll, how about rigging it up as a real CD poll? Wish I was so technically gifted as to do it myself.

Obama/Biden

It would also be interesting to see a poll that reveals our ages, or age brackets, so we could debunk the myth that we're all 20 something college girls in a stupor.

Hardly a scientific poll, especially considering the fact that the 2000 and 2004 elections prove that many people don't tell the truth in polls for fear of retaliation from friends. Pollsters are free to admit that people don't tell the truth, and nothing makes this forum any different.

I'm going to shake things up a bit:

Voting for McCain/Palin, and would have voted McCain even if it was Todd Palin on the ticket.

Voting for Obama-I think I'd pull out my eyelashes before voting for the dark side.

Pretty much sums it up for myself as well. That is a big ticket item for me, as well as the fact that I just do not want my hard earned money going to people who do nothing to help themselves.
