I have many of the same feelings as you regarding Democrats vs. Republicans. And I am very glad that you recognize that the current problems aren't solely the fault of one party over the other.
I do feel like I cannot vote for Obama. It isn't a racial issue (I would more than likely vote for Colin Powell in a heartbeat) - it is a lot of little things. He appears to me to be a show-person. It's all rhetoric and not a lot of substance. He doesn't have the background to back up what he espouses. Truly, I don't see how anyone can tout his 'experience' when most of his life has been about talking and writing about himself - not really accomplishing anything. I'm sure the Lady here will rebut me on this one, but Community Organizer, State Senator with nary a piece of legislation to his credit, and U.S Senator who voted with Bush more often than not, and voted 'present' more times than that aren't real credentials in my opinion. Having Nancy Pelosi and Ted Kennedy behind him pulling the strings isn't a great thing either.
As for Sarah Palin, I personally admire her. She's smart, savvy, and forthright. People call her 'scary' - what's scary? That she lives what she speaks? That she is a normal person that has succeeded in a man's world? That she stood up for her city and her state? I really get tired of people calling her silly names. She is more 'normal' than most politicians, and she is in touch with regular folks like me. All this talk about her taking earmarks for her state...isn't that what a Governor does? She has done her job well and her ratings prove it. Joe Biden doesn't know how to be a VP either. 30 years in the Senate doesn't qualify him any more then Sarah.
The office of the President is about making the tough decisions - not always the popular ones. I don't see Obama doing that. He will rubber-stamp anything the Democratic Congress sends his way, and that is a scary thought.
You think he isn't a Socialist? Have you thought about the fact that the Russian leadership wants him in office? Capitalism isn't something that our adversaries want, and they would love to see us fail.
