Let's just remember that Obama is against earmarks.. oh.. but wait... Obama's total earmark requests (when teamed up with other senators) is $399,766,475. The price tag for his solo earmark requests is $321,766,475... gee... Typical politician double speak at it's finest..

How much might have been overspent McCain? oh... wow.. 7M-10M maybe? That sure is a hell of a lot compared to how much Obama actually spent using a method he's supposed to be against.

Regardless of McCains other issues, this is one that I'd much rather have him in charge of than either of the other two. He might fuck up sometimes but over all he'd spend a hell of a lot less.

Being for one candidate over another doesn't mean you have to think they smell like roses all the time...
