of course
however it doesn't matter who is going to win, because neither will simply fix the economy.
Obama seems more honest though

I don't know. I think I missed the window to change my voting location, and there's no way I'll be able to drive two hours down to Bloomington on a work day just to vote. But maybe not, I'll have to research it.
Right now I'm thinking about voting Ron Paul as a write-in, if I do get to vote. There's a chance I might vote Bob Barr, though, but I don't really want to condone the Libertarian Party's dumb antics in nominating that guy this year.
For those of you about to scream "Throwing your vote away!": First of all, I need to lead by example, and vote on my principles. If everyone did that all the time, we likely wouldn't be in such a mess every election, and it won't ever happen if people always decide to compromise. And second (which this will appease you guys): I live in Illinois. There is no chance in hell Obama is not going to get every electoral vote from this state this election, so it doesn't matter who I vote for anyway (other than to show my support for third parties, that matters).

No. We have a choice between two candidates who appear to be different, but they will both deliver the same end product, just using different methods; in other words, they are identical.
For example, McCain has supported the war and Obama has opposed it. That may appear different, but Obama has never given his exact plans for the war, leading me to believe he'll take the most conservative approach available, which is a gradual pullout. McCain is going to do this anyway (different candidates, same results).

If so, then we'll still have thousands of troops in the middle east. Same end result.

Yes because I'm not one of those morons that thinks I have an understanding of things to the point of thinking that the candidates are the same person.
I'm also not one of those hardcore cool guys who write in Mickey Mouse. Man those guys are badass, they're accomplishing so much.

btw yeah I'm votin OBAAMA B)
I said they both have different methods and ideas, but both candidates will ultimately yield the same results, especially in areas that really count.
To those of you who's favorite candidate wins: you'll get bored with him in a short while and hate his guts, then you'll pick a new messiah next election, again and again and again.
