If I HAD TO pick.... it would probably be McCain. Why? I'm an Independent with a Republican twist. I personally believe that the war in the Middle East should be finished. We got ourselves and others mixed up in it, we might as well finish what we started. It may not have been the brightest idea but what's in the past is in the past. We need to be looking towards the future. I wonder what will just happen if we leave Iraq before the real problems are solved.... a scary future that not many of us want to think about. Yes, peace is a necessity and something we have gone without for a long time. But can there really be peace when madness seems to be running the world? I think we could get alot farther if we finished the war. THAT is why I would vote for McCain and no other reason.

I love you guys that want to see the war in Iraq finished, so are voting for McCain. It's like saying "I love dogs, so I'd vote for Michael Vick."
You have a house full of cats. They fight, they'll always fight, because their cats. Now let's say you decide you want the cats to stop fighting. Do you throw a dog into the house? That's what we are doing in Iraq. How do you make peace by driving around in tanks? Patroling with heavy artillary? Take the dog out and the cats will calm down.
We are paying out of my pockets and your pockets to operate Iraq. But Iraq isn't a poor nation. They have oil, right? So what is happening to all that oil money? It's going straight into the Iraqi governemnt coffers. How many more months or years can we keep this up? Companies like Hallinburton hope forever. Let's get someone new in there that isn't interested in keeping Halliburton in billion dollar contracts.
