Barack Obama (Democrat) 4

  Like his Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton, Obama is a center/right, corporate capitalist, establishment candidate.

Unlike John McCain (a reactionary rightwing, corporate capitalist, establishment candidate), Obama doesn't promise to continue the failed policies of the Bush administration.

False hope? http://www.youtube.com/v/-ky8Hvq-F0U&rel=1 

UPDATE:

Friends who live there tell me Obama's a typical Chicago politician.

UPDATE:

I early-voted against President Palin today.

You are bankrupt of any thoughts of your own.

eh, I think you guys go overboard on the liberal accusations. And you fail to notice when one of your own is fiscal populist. Let's be crystal clear on this: nobody running for President will be nearly the big government populist that George W. Bush was.

John McCain is anything but Right-Wing, anyone should be able to see that!

It is difficult to exchange political views with someone who states so many erroneous things that there is no starting point. McCain is a right-winger? No, his problem is with the right wing of his own party whom he has betrayed many times, voting like a liberal. If he were, his money coffers would be full and his VP candidate would be obvious at this point. To characterize both Obama and Clinton as center-right politicians is an equally wrong statement. mag then enters the fray with a suggestion about populism, couched as a slam against the current president. And wonder of all wonders, fitman gets 6 (as of today) helpfuls for his original comment, which is neither accurate, nor clarifying. The only explanation I can come up with is that the helpfuls are from republican-hating liberals (or Obama pom-pom pumpers) who have as little idea as fitman does about what is going on, but feel the need to defend him and are poised to vote for Obama regardless of any discussion. Like fitman.

who gives a crap about liberal/rightwing whatever people. it is about our country. vote for the person that will lead and PROTECT our country. I have never seen sooooo many people who are voting to vote and not for the right reasons. Get your heads out of your as-es and pay attention.
