Voting for McCain, because Hillary didn’t win?
- by Holly
I want to know why, not because I’m an Obama supporter, but because many of the people who have been saying this have been demicrats for years. Why give up your values just because it’s not a women up there. Now if you have switched because you actually agree with McCain more then okay that I understand, but I have talked to people who agree with everything that Obama says, but won’t vote for him because he’s not a women and didn’t choose a women for vp.
I just don’t think that some of these people realize that if the vote McCain in they will have to deal with what he belives in and what he want’s to do. The war will continue, US taxpayer money will continue to go to Iraq and nothing will change, if thats what they want, fine, but if they want an end to the war they need to grow up and do what is right, not act like a highschool kid and try to get back at Obama for winning the nomination.
This is the reasion that many young voters don’t vote, they figure voteing is a big scam because people just vote the party and don’t listen to the issues, they vote for the cute one or the person who looks better then the other. In this race I am sure that many will not vote for Obama because of race. It’s sad this is still going on, but it’s a truth that even he knows. I just think that if you are old enough to vote you need to vote because you agree with what the canidate has to say, not because your pissed off that they were nominated instead of someone else.
I agree with you, Holly. A few percent of Hillary’s supporters will fail to vote for Obama. They’ll stay home, vote for Mickey Mouse, skip that part of the ballot and just vote for mayor, or vote for McCain. Easily 95 percent of Hillary’s crowd will realize they’d rather have Obama than McCain as the next president. Republicans who originally thought McCain was too liberal will come to the same conclusion. We’ll be the same political stalemate we’ve seen for 15 years, where just a few swing voters in a handful of states will sway the outcome.

I do think unless one person wins by a major amount we are going to have the same problems we had before, where no one knows who really won and then no one trust the the guy they say won actually won.
