9-4 Obama but I hate each a little more now.

11 - 2 Obama But I agree that picking a candidate by sound bite is not really an optimal method.

What else have they given us to go by, but sound bites.

One has demonstrated who his people are by picking a VP that does not know what the Bush doctrine was AND then justifies Pearl Harboring of any sovereign nation only because we might feel threatened.
George Sr had to make those same concessions to get elected – to empower the extremists of his party to gain their support. Do we really need those same people justifying a unilateral attack on Iran only because we ‘feel’ Iran might be a threat? Sarah Palin gave us everything to see beyond the sound bytes. She represents the devil that McCain had to make a deal with. |

9-4 McCain. No real surprise there.

Where have you looked?
Obama McCain These source documents. As close to the candidate's minds as we can get at this point. There's more to it than just their rhetoric, of course. I depend on fact checking sources as well. And I find second hand subjective analyses helpful, even necessary on most topics, since I'm not an expert in every field that interests or affects me. For those I turn to various news services in radio and print and television and on the intarwebz, too many and varied to list. Perhaps this is as good a first step as any. Keep reading, keep listening, keep talking.

8-5 McCain, but I still don't like him. I wish there was a candidate that didn't want to fuck up health care and did want to send the illegal immigrants to Dana's house...
