Neither Dems or Repubs "party members" will decide the next election. It will be us Independents!! Since the conventions, all you hear is how bad the other side is, not what good we will bring. The more negative the message, the further away I go from that party''''s candidate. So far the left has been far more negative than the right. If that changes I might again start to lean more towards Obama, but not until then.

seriously? what a JOKE you are... In the RNC, all Palin did was bash Obama with snide remarks and comments and insults... but yeah, OBAMA is more negative?? are you KIDDING me?? what a joke of a voter you are.

Go ahead, vote for McCain/Palin and vote for the continued destruction of the US. If you agree that the BUSH administration is bad for the US and you KNOW that McCain voted 90-95% with BUSH, then you''re voting for a continuation of the destruction of the US. Congratulations for mental midgets such as yourself.

have a nice day!

If McCain and Palin are elected get ready to address them as King and Queen. Like days of old, if you complained about the monarchy, your lands were taken and off with your head...This is how America was born, many of our ancestors where chased off their lands and had to leave because the King and Queen wanted it all...we had the poor and the rich, just like we have now. How many castles does McCain have?? he doesn''t even know. Just like former New York Mayor Koch said today," Palin scares the hell out of me". Both McCain and Palin should scare the heck out of you too.

Juan Amnesty Mccain co-sponsored a bill that would have given amnesty/citizenship to over 20 million illegal latinos, so we know where amensty mccain stands on that issue, what does Sarah Palin feel about amnesty for illegal latinos? I want to know.. don''t just say she is against it, prove it, provide a link where she says in a article NO AMNESTY/Citizenship for illegal immigrants... that is the one issue I want to know how she feels about. Amnesty Mccain would have to pass a staunch anti-amnesty bill through the senate to get me to even consider voting for him, and promise no more tax cuts to the wealthy!

In a year when the democrats "can''t lose," the best they could do was offer us either Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama.

In an average election year, neither one would have a snowball''s chance in hell of winning the presidency. This year I really thought they couldn''t lose.

Leave it to the democratic party to screw up such an opportunity.

Don''t be surprised if the democrats manage to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory......so disappointing.

How Palin can be well received is puzzling. Apparently, Palin is a religious nut job whose current church believes a homosexual can be turned into a heterosexual by prayer. At her former church, maybe Palin too, the congregation apparently spoke in tongues. If Palin isn''t a religious nut job, then have no idea what more characteristics are necessary. McCain is an old man at 72 and not in the best of health. Should McCain die in office, the religious nut job becomes President. If McCain was late 40s, or under 65, and in the best of health, Palin would not be too great of a concern. But, the nation will get the Presidential team it deserves just like the last 8 years.

hahahahhHAhHHahah this story is hilarious!! So, 2 out of 3 uncommitted voters are still uncommitted, but out of that group of uncommitted voters, 20% are on McCain and 14% are on Obama...

let''s see with REAL NUMBERS shall we?

According to Real Clear Politics, the CBS poll is for a TOTAL of 677 respondants. 46% are for McCain, 44% are for Obama. That equals 90%. So, 10% are uncommitted. So, out of 677 total people, 68 (rounding up) are uncommitted. Out of that, 20% (13 people.. rounding up) are for McCain and 8 are for Obama. So, this story is all about *FIVE PEOPLE*

FIVE PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!! HELLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO... WHY IS THIS A STORY!?!??!?!

They''re talking about FIVE PEOPLE!!!
