Please, try to be as honest and non-partisan as possible. I am not supporting either candidate but I see that Obama-Mc Cain gap seems to be narrower today. Even if you are a Mc Cain supporter and think Obama is going to win or vice versa, please state your honest opinion and give SPECIFIC reasons why you think Mc Cain or Obama is going to win. It should be an interesting thread.

Default Obama

Obama because he has a star quality that is fooling the masses. Time will tell who was ignorant.

I think most of the polls are flawed, and that Senator McCain will win, but it will be close.
It certainly will not be Senator Obama by a large percentage or 'landslide'.

I very well could be wrong, but regardless of who wins, I will commit to pray for them daily and support them the best I can.

Default Republicans will win!

America doesn't want to pay the high income tax that was present during Clinton's office. Obama is attempting to be planted in The White House just like those terrorists were planted in the airliner cockpits. It will not work!!!!!!!!

Obama because he has completely fooled the middle-class masses with his smooth talk and his promises of increased entitlements. Anyone who votes for Obama doesn't care that he has absolutely no experience in doing anything that prepares him to be president. President Obama - Geez, what are all these people thinking?

Obama will win. I dont think the polls are flawed because they've been pretty darn accurate in the primaries between Obama and Hillary. Hillary won the states that she was projected to win in the polls and Obama won the states he was projected to win in the polls. But In fact they have been pretty accurate the past several election cylcles. So those hoping Obama will lose, forget about the Bradley effect.

Instead of spending so much emotion on the Presidential race, we should really be more concerned with the Congress---they are the one's who pass the bills and spend OUR money--the president can't spend one red cent of taxpayer money--that's Congress' job! We need to get some representatives who will look out for us, as a country, and not just for the folks from their hometown, or state! We're all in this together, folks! What may seem really great for one small area is costing the country dearly.

Default Who will Lose?

Perhaps the question to ask is "who will lose?". And the answer to that is America will lose. We all lose, because whether McCain wins, or Obama wins, America will still be a nation divided...neither "winner" will be able to pull us together again. The two-party system we've been stuck with for like forever is killing us...one doesn't have to look twice to see where voting Dem/Rep has gotten us....
