Let's have some fun with this. If you like to participate, please follow the rule. No bashing of any candidates you dislike. This is strictly for what you know/understand about the candidate of your choice.
If you want to quote some one, please only quote them because you agree, or want to add to the agreement. So we don't have any more spins or arguments. You want to argue, there are plenty of threads for you to do that.:wink:
Three categories
ros, Cons, and Concern:
The thoughts should be fair and candid base on their believes, NOT their physical/health issues.
Since I started the thread, I'll go first:
Needless to say, I'm for GOP:
McCain:
Pros: Vast knowledge of international affairs. A man who believes in low taxes, cut programs, and honest about not only care for the citizens of this nation, but the world. He also have the record of reaching across the isle.
Cons: Little on the hot head side but manageable. The age may have been an issue, but he is relatively healthy, and I'm sure he will be properly monitored while in the office.
Concerns: How much can he get things done if the congress continue lead by Pelocy, Reed, and Schumer.
Palin:
Pros: Even though her political career is relatively short, but when compare to her counter part, she has the knowledge of running a governmental system. People in her state like her, and she is NOT a DC insider, which means she can relate to the citizens. I also like her hands on approach and willingness to learn. Great ability to brush off ridiculous media attacks, and believe in Pro Life.
Cons: I'm am some what of a Christian, but I don't believe using religion to run the world, even though many have accused her of it, but I didn't see any evidence of that.
Concerns: First woman to be considered to have a real shot of becoming a VP, which means the learning curve may be steep since she will have to deal with things differently in a national stage. I do have faith in her ability to learn and catch on quickly, but timing may not be good (If she were to be elected during the Clinton Era, things may be easier since the world is a little more complicated today).

Completely out of touch with reality - bet you he has no idea what a 12 pack of Budweiser cost even though it paid for his Senate seat & his Presidential run (one my good friend sis part of the AB family in St. Louis and he can tell you exactly how much a 12 pack of Mich Ultra cost - because he still lives in the real world ). Obviously, can't fly a plane worth a shit.
