Better if you just put me on ignore, your replies are pretty much useless and always seem to be off topic.

I think McCain has already taken your money from his acceptance of the $84 million welfare program.

Please post the amount you will give, highest bidder wins, if its high enough.

If its not high enough, then you have the nerve to allow Obama to take my money to buy your vote!!

Exactly. Where the heck do people think a portion of their tax dollars has been going all along?

McCain is buying the votes and influence of the corporate execs with his tax plan of corporate welfare and tax cuts to the wealthy. This is just as much redistribution of income as Obama's plan, just not quite as fair.
McCain has not proposed "tax cuts to the wealthy". His plan is to not raise anyones taxes.

obama's tax plan is to raise taxes on the people who have worked hard and became successful and give that money to the people who have not worked as hard or has not worked at all.

Explain to me how Obama is your money to buy my vote? Are you secretly an Obama donor?
John McCain casts self as middle-class guardian; says Barack Obama fundraising erodes reforms - Los Angeles Times (http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/wire/ats-ap-mccainoct19,1,7954418.story - broken link)
The Arizona senator has been limited to spending $84 million for the general election campaign after he accepted federal funds under a program created after the Watergate scandal. Obama initially indicated he would adhere to the same limit, but reversed course and became the first post-Watergate candidate to finance a general-election campaign with private funding.
