McCain or Obama?

[The United Soviet Socialist Republic]

The 2008 election is over, and the next election is coming up, but i thought it would be fun to look back and see if (knowing what he would do) the NS population would still think Obama was the better candidate. So NSG which one did (do) you like better, Obama, or McCain? I was and still am a supporter of the McCain Palin 08 campaign, Palin was well terrible but i liked McCain, he had good ideas for the economy and had a sensible system planned, plus with him america wouldnt have obamacare and that would be a plus. Which campaign did (do) YOU support NSG?

[Flankfurt am Mane]

I still like Obama.

[Meowfoundland]

Obama is better than possible Palin, any day.

[Yahkima]

It's not that Obama is so great, it was that Palin was so very stupid.

EDIT: Still is, as far as I know.

[Glasgia]

But you're a socialist! Surely you support Obamacare then?

Obama for me

[Ifreann]

Voting McCain could cause a universe destroying time paradox.

Obama for me

Actually i am only economicly sociallist, on social issues i am mostly conservative.

[Ertae]

Really really don't like Obama's administration, for all its lack of good change, but McCain would've been worse. And Palin in a seat of potential power? God help us all.

If she had become President, we would've had to nuke the [inauguration] site from orbit. It would've been the only way to be sure.

edit: my choice would be "none of the above", or the write-in "Engelbert Humperdinck"

I have to say Obama. He's thr right kind of idiot, from the party that didn't bring you Bush.

[The Jahistic Unified Republic]

I hate Obama with a passion, but I would not vote for McCain. I abstain.

[Jafas United]

Only if McCain had chosen a better running mate...

Could someone American please explain to me the huge problem that many people over there have with Obamacare?
It seems so odd - it's nowhere near as comprehensive as a national health service, yet it's still being reviled as an evil socialist agenda. Hardly!
Plus, many Americans have used services such as Medicare and Medicaid and yet still claim to not rely on government help.
It seems that if you give anything a socialist tag over there, it's bound to fail.
I just want one good reason why offering free treatment to those in most need (but who may not be able to pay) is such a bad thing.

I guess you can tell I'm for Obama (even though he's just a watered-down Republican)

Im not american but i can still give reasons why obamacare is bad. The main reason being is because is goes against the american constitution by forcing all americans to buy insurance, is that good? And frankly it is just a skeme to make the rich insurance companies richer by making all 300 million americans buy their insurance. I wouldnt want a health care system designed to make the insurance companies richer.

The problem with Obamacare is pork spending, not Obamacare itself.


@OP: Obama. McCain is just... Ugh.

That has got to be the most irrelevent statement i have ever heard, and i have heard Palins speeches. What does that have to do with anything?

You haven't heard many statements then? I'm just saying it's kind of funny you saying things like that, and then having the whole nation name flag thing going with Comrade Lenin. You're a different kind of Red I think.

I think i have said this before. I am an economic socialist/communist while socially i am a conservative.

A socially conservative socialist?

My mind has been blown.

[Ashmoria]

EDIT: Still is, as far as I know.

isnt it a bit silly to compare the presidential candidate to the other side's vicepresidential candidate? except for having to hear her awful voice more often palin would be mostly invisible just as joe biden is--more so since she knows nothing.

knowing what we know now i sure as hell wouldnt want the newly horrifying john mccain to be president.

Obama... I think. I'm not sure about politics nowadays.

[Kleomentia]

Neither.

I tend not to bother with American politics, but looking at McCain and Obama, I'd agree with some of you for Obama however the reason why might be disturbing.
