McCain

Obama's a political lightweight, and for the most part his appeal seems to be people with low self esteem (hope, yes we can, etc)

not that I'm a *huge* fan of McCain's policies

IMO, McCain can't beat Obama nationally. Clinton, ot the other hand, it a toss-up against McCain. Which is why I think Hillary will be the nominee - Democrats can't seem to get the right person the nomination.

This shouldn't be about personalities, it should be about removing the Republican Party from the White House because of all the damage they and their principles have done to the nation and the Constitution
by false interpretation of the laws, abuse of executive power and lying to get us into war. The same core of political interests and operatives will control Republican policy and the Republicans in Congress whether McCain or any other Republican is elected president.

I'd agree but if Hillary gets in (as far as I can tell) it will be pretty much the same thing except the "interests" will be somewhat different.

It's Obama for me but if HillBill gets the nomination I'm not sure what I'm going to do.

This is a drubbing.

So which specific Obama policies are people most fired up about?
