Its just a waste of a vote to vote for the independent candidate.
I also happen to really like John McCain. I lived in Tucson, Arizona from 2001 through 2005 so I became very familier with him then, and agreed with his politics. ( I even sat NEXT to him on a flight from Phoenix to Dulles in DC - in coach too! he was reading a huge book from the Library of Congress, so I didnt bother him much)
Its funny how back when I lived in Arizona John McCain was known as the man who steps over party lines and goes for what he believes is right.. not just what the Repubs think. For some reason, the message Barak Obama sends out about McCain is very different.
I hate that politicians vote based on party line. There has to be a freaking correct answer out there.

I would strongly consider voting for the 2001 John McCain. Unfortunately that John McCain sold out to the religious right and no longer exists. The new John McCain is standing for everything I dislike about the Republican party and his selection of the ultra-conservative Pallin just cemented that. He decided he'd rather be President at any cost than be the man who steps over party lines and goes for what he believes is right.
