I am still split on voting but leaning towards the democrats for this election. Perhaps and a big perhaps if this was the McCain of past who the Republican party, Rove, and Bush totally destroyed. I may have leaned more towards that person. He just got ran the fuck over, changed his policies like underwear, and in the end took it like a bitch from Bush while other Republicans either turned a blind eye or honestly did not fucking care. He ended up a different person after that and has gone buddy buddy with the same people who ass fucked him hard. Hell its hard not to wince when you see him being praised for the very things they fucked him with last time. Either way that man is gone. What we have left is more of a shell of that man who keeps calling himself the Maverick, plus well Palin; that was just a fucking nod to the same old shit.
I hear ya. McCain was awesome in 2000. He would have been the best guy for the country back then. But he's sold his soul now to the party. They own him and they are telling him what to do. He's changed his mind on a lot of issues that I respected him for being independent on. He wanted Lieberman as his VP but was forced to take Palin by the party.

I'm just tired of what has happened over the past 8 years. McCain used to be independent, but now he's just the same shit that we have right now.
