DA 09: Barack Obama vs. John McCain: Make the right choice!

This is Devil's Advocate thread number nine

In these threads, all posters have to take exactly the opposite stance to the ones they usually take. Thus, for example, I will defend Shariah law and defend the legal "rights" of Muslims to take four wives if they want. And I'll do it sincerely, not satirically.

This is the topical biggie - Barack Obama versus John McCain.

Nothing more need be said.

Barack Obama is to ruthlessly ambitious, too inexperienced, and too liberal for America. I'd like to point out that we can't trust a man who has been running for president since he became Senator, and showed himself to be the most liberal member of the Senate when he even bothers to vote. He tried to raise taxes 94 times!

John McCain has been a pillar of integrity his whole life. I am a bit disappointed in his recent mud-slinging, but with Obama trying to subtlety redefine this race to be about who's the biggest celebrity, or who owns a hybrid, desperate times call for desperate measures.

The Liberal Media has been attacking Sarah Palin because out of an inferiority complex. She's more of the stereotypical American than they are, warts and all. She governs a state with great natural wealth, they don't. She understands what America needs, they don't.

Seriously, why vote for the lesser evil?

Democrats and Republicans get over 90% of the votes, so you're wasting your time if don't vote for them.

Ralph Nader would be a good president and is in no way a narcissistic . .. .. .. .. .. .. ..

Before I can play, how to I play the opposite of being undecided? Play decided of course, but for who?

I know! McCain '08, Palin '11!
