Current Presidential Election thread

[Romanos IV]

A lot of discussion has been done about the USA presidential elections, but as far as I'm concerned, no poll about this has been made. So, vote!

[Panzerbear]

can I pencil in "Ron Paul" ?

[puts the flame-proof suit on]

[André Masséna]

[puts the flame-proof suit on]

Is simply laughing at that suggestion a flame?

If not. heheehehahahahoohoo.

Throw that vote away.

[WrathofTulkas]

I just realized when both candiates names are written out in full (middle name) They both seem less appealing?

[Poach]

I picked Barack, as McCain seems like a bit of a warmonger to me!

(Don't hold me to that, I didn't pay that much attention to the elections of a country I don't live in)

[Applesmack]

Barrack, I don't like fascists ruling a country.

[Kiljan Arslan]

Barrack, I don't like fascists ruling a country.

Yeah Mccain is a "fascist".

[Holger Danske]

Barrack...
Not so much because of MaCain, but more so because of Palin... She's a fishy extremist and highly hypocritic... .

However, her daughter is rather(VERY) MILF! <- Now that sounds strange!

[Kanaric]

Didn't we just have this topic?

[Erik]

I just hope the world won't have to deal with another right wing religious zealot warmongerer.

Guess that makes me an Obama supporter, or somebody who really, REALLY wished McCain good health and a very long life.

[MadBurgerMaker]

Haven't decided yet.

[TRSjarmen]

All I have to say is if John wins he better us his VP as his public face, I would love to see her on TV all the time instead of him.

[Viking Prince]

Can we start the countdown here on another eledtion preference poll starting in maybe 5-7 days?

Why the hurry?

Cannot wait for even all candidates to be nominated and on the ballot?

Rumor has it that there is another more definitive poll in November. I will vote then.

Perhaps a MOD will swoop down and wipe this post as off topic, or maybe just close the thread.

[King Edward III]

I like both.

[Kanaric]

Really IMO both would be good, but I think McCain lies quite a bit and manufactured himself after the 2000 election to make him electable by republicans. I have a feeling that most of his ideas and policies will change when in office just like it did for George Bush but to a more liberal slant instead of conservative. Really they should be afraid and unhappy that hes the republicans option.

Why McCain is Bush III fast forward to 3:55 or watch whole video.

John McCain accepts the Republican nomination, and he has a very similar message to George W. Bush. McCain's bio film shows how he went from a maverick reformer to a reformed maverick. The most wholesome news team learns what small town values mean to Republicans, and Jon can't wait to get back to elitist New York City.

Sorry I messed up trying to embed it. If you want to put it back in just copy the URL of the video and put it in quotes.
Can someone show me how to embed the video?

Im still not quite sure how to make the video appear on the post. I found a copy of the video on youtube and tried putting it in both YouTube quotes and regular quotes no luck when i previewed posting?

[LegionnaireX]

Uh, personally I think that was one of the most unintelligently crafted Jon Stewart segments to come out of this election.

Sound bites of people saying similar things in no way proves that McCain is Bush III. Hell, you could compare clips of McCain and Obama saying similar things.

Take speeches with a grain of salt people. They are often vague and they tell you what you want to here, no matter what candidate or what party.

[MathiasOfAthens]

Yeah you can do sound bites of anyone saying anything compared to anyone. I think I saw one comparing someone to Hitler anyway question how do I embed the video so that u dont have to click the link.
