Shay_cam- for someone who believes backing up positions with facts is an important trait; something a potential president needs, you seem to practice it very poorly yourself.

But there is no point arguing with you, your posts so far in this thread are warning enough as to the futility of the endevour. I'm just glad you are not of voting age.

..which seems to be absolutely nothing.

You post very vague generalities but don't provide a single specific instance that refutes your claims.

There are plenty of broken promises that both candidates have been accused of making... the MSM eats these things up and spits 'em in your face for weeks on end, no matter how trivial.

Case in point: Obama's promise to accept public funding for his campaign if McCain did so (which he broke). That's been in election ads, newspapers, web sites, etc... but it seems to have hidden from you somehow.

No matter... all politicians lie. It's their job. You just gotta find one that tells the truth about the important stuff.

I cannot back them up with one single fact

Take a look in the mirror, eh?

There is a difference between stating "facts" and opinions, which you seem to not understand. And of course I didn't mean to put the % sign in my previous post, so I corrected your post as swell. And it's McCain, not MCcain. Although it would be pretty cool to have president "Emcee Cain". So anyway, why is McCain a Nazzi?

It makes no difference what way you capitlize his name.

To answer your question,

Have you not watched the republican conventions?
Have you not seen how McCain's representitive speaks toward our people?
He speaks as if the worlds probelms are going to be solved, and how the country is going to strive better with McCain as president.
Which ironicly is what the people think, about obama.
All these stupid people at my school, and even the adults (who dont even watch the presidential debates mind you) clain how obama is going to save the earth, and how hes going to lower taxes for 95% of people, whisle making fuel efficiant cars, that get 150 miles to the gallon. Yet, where are the funds going to come from? Its sure not gonna coem from the billions apon billions of dollars we invest into this "special car" And lowing the taxed by 95% definetly isnt going to help much is it?

Facts stated. Do the people that hate me wanna argue more?

I know that they write the sports articles as it happens, and it makes sense that they would do the same with, well, pretty much everything.

And yes, it's party time for a large group of people. Even I'm a bit relieved. McCain worried me a little with that Nuclear mumbo-jumbo, and the oil...and the "we're not afraid to go in there and get mavericky," and "bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran," and "10,000 years," and attack ads, endless "who is Barrack" garbage, and the...
