I always prefer to vote for a governor (either party) than a member of Congress. At least I have an idea of how he or she ran a state. Unfortuneately both candidates are senators. I don't care for either of them but in my opinion, McCain has the experience edge. Obama is too far left for my tastes. I also don't care for the too far right.

It really wasn't directed at your post, I just think the "this candidate sucks", "both candidates suck", "he's been in DC too long"..etc gets funny because has there ever been an ideal candidate? I guess I am in the minority, but I think these are the best two candidates from both parties I've seen in a while. For politicians, they are both honest, intelligent guys who I trust with our country. McCain is too right for me, Obama is too left for others but I won't wake up feeling like sh8t like I did after Bush won and I don't think many righties will give me the "I'm scared for my country" speech like they did after Clinton won.

Well...yeah..they will..

No problem. I just feel Congress is as much a problem as Bush and voting for one of them for president kills me.
