The question shouldn't be "what's wrong with McCain", it should be "what's wrong with all the idiots supporting an inexperienced freshman senator from illinois?"

I'm thinking that it's the "right" way to look at it...

One, every four years, the "polls" always but always show democrats leading. its been that way as long as I can remember.

But you got to realize the people who take the polls. Rarely is it the working professional. And I know when I get a poll call, I hang up. I just don't have time for that crap. And most educated people do hang up in my opinion. Who doesn't hang up? People with time on thier hands, no jobs, bored, generally not the do'ers of the world.

HH, you listyour age to be in the 30's, but you appearnot to have much life experience. These are simple anwsers to the questions you seem to be having so much trouble with.

i don't know who, or exactly how they poll people big country, but i do watch a lot of political t.v. coverage and the polls are always quite accurate.
as far as life experience, i'm sure i don't have nearly as much as a "genius" like you, that's why i ask questions, so i can get the answers from "experts" like you.

I think that most people see McCain as being very close to what we have in office now. Most of the American people are ready for the possiblity of change.

I dont understand why the Poles are suddenly such experts. Since when are people from Poland such experts on who will win an election in the U.S.

Polls are only as good as the source. And since the Democrates are the majority tied up in the race right now, you get a bias view. Even in the near future, polls will only reflect the demographics of the population that subscribes to the media source doing the poll. If polls were even close to being accurate, Clinton would have been a shoe in. Kerry would be our president, etc.

Change simply for the sake of change is utterly moronic without considering the nature of the proposed change and the consequences of that change. I'm all for "the possibility of change." But, I'm not even remotely in favor of the changes being offered up by Mr. Obama.
