Re: Thoughts on Obama

I understand where you are coming from and agree that going from one extreme to another is not a solution to uniting the country. I guess deep down I'm hoping that Obama is trying to pander to the left when he is outlining some of his policies. I feel that, if he turns out being the Democratic choice, we will begin to see where he differs from the Dems on some issues and is more in line with the Republicans.

I think it would be political suicide in such a close race to bring these issues to the forefront now. Look at how McCain has been demonized for agreeing with the Dems on some issues. I'm honestly surprised that he's this far ahead with so many like Coultier screaming that he is not a true Republican.

Anyway time will tell, but I certainly see more hope with Obama than the others, and would prefer to vote for him than to not vote at all.
