But come on folks it does matter there are still enough people out there that dont think we are ready for either, and I won't lie I don't care what women it is I will not vote for a women for the president of the untied states call me what you will I just won't, as for a non-white I will reserve the right to check him out and make a decision, But I will say I think as a people we might be ready for a women more so then a Black. Just my thoughts. I am sure I will get bashed for the women remark but oh well at least it will spark a debate.

If the country has survived under the current adminstration, I have faith that we can survive almost anything. Now that the cards are on the table, its clear GW chose a horrible group of people to help him run things on the whole. There are clearly competent people here and there, but on the whole horrendous appointments (from cabinet to foreign ambassadors). I have to ask myself what candidate will not owe positions to backers after what we have been through and go from there. From that point of view, McCain seems to me the guy that would owe the least and therefore have the ability to pick the best people for all of the important jobs (even FEMA). Even though I clearly have misgivings about him.
