Just curious :o)

I'm beginning to lean towards Obama, but I can't vote.

Have you seen this?

Somewhere between Hillary and Obama, but probably mostly Hillary. Yesterday I read an overview of the various promises from the candidates, and I quite liked hers.

well I have nothing against Obama. all I want is the Democrats back in power and with Hilary I think there is a better chance. Still she's also more convincing

She seems a bit more specific than Obama. He's more like 'let's make it better' but she seems to specify more how she's gonna do it.

With the Republicans, I'm hoping for McCain.

EDIT: Just wrote that McCain was a Democrat... Error corrected lol

And I'm not against Hillary, as long the Democrats get in. One of them as a president and the other as vp would suit me just fine.

I doubt that the winner will choose the other candidate as his or her vice president. They're too far from each other, I think.

Obama's health plan proposal has too many holes in it. I think that will cost him.

He proposed the mixed public/private insurance where more competition should lower the prices, right?

I like Hillary's better. As far as I remember, she wants public insurance for children, unemployed and OAPs.

I'm finally 18, so I'm finally able to vote and plan to do so..TODAY! Casting my primary vote for Hilary, for all of your above reasons. Obama is way too vague.

Politics is I scratch your back you scratch mine . Obama has the Kennedy machine behind him but is Kennedy gonna be able to muster support around him ? Hillary on the other hand , I think will be able to call in favors from a larger section of the group.

He's been quiet but don't forget Rove is working for the Rebulican party still . He is lying in wait .
