    I don't think moderates are allowed to get their panties in a bunch.

        Do not want Obama, do not want unified Democratic government, do not want, do not want do not want. Gridlock is good.

          Then by all means, vote for McCain. Nothing will get done for the next four years. Congressional approval ratings will drop into single digits.

            I think there's alot of people out there that vote for gridlock every time. Doesn't matter which party as long as it causes the spending to grind to a halt. Kind of an odd way to go, but I understand it. Its based on the idea that no matter what the politicos do they'll screw up. Seems reasonable to me, though I don't do it.

              I think its likely I've managed to get people with hard feelings on both sides to vote for the same thing here.

                exactly, the less the government can do, the better. Of course, that's with the hopes that McCain will actually veto things, perhaps a large assumption.

                  The Dems have a little more on the line this time, becasue of 3 possible SCOTUS appointments. Unless we want the entire court to be conservative, Obama has to win.

                  This doesn't include the lower court ideological appointees made by Bush & co. Or the flap at the DOJ. Or the redefining of torture.

                  If McCain was to speak out aginst the Bush extremism, I'd likely not be as concerned. The Palin choice has only increased my fears about a Repug presidency. So yah, this time my panties are twisted with a double knot.

                    My panties are pretty bunched, not because I'm crazy about Obama (I'm not) but because I want to see the GOP driven from power; I want to see defeated GOP politicians paraded through the streets in chains, their families sold into slavery, their mansions burnt to the ground and the land around the charred remains strewn with salt.

                    So my panties are pretty bunched because, no matter what happens, I'm bound to be disappointed.

                        On a personal financial level, the election will have little effect on me, but I actually want to think that the United States stands for something I could admire. Right now it doesn't, and it would continue not to under McCain. It's sad to live in a democratic country an be ashamed of its government, aknowing that your fellow citizens are responsible for it. 80% of Americans think the country is on the wrong track: well, newsflash, you have no one to blame but yourselves because the government does remain for the people, by the people, of the people.

                            I'm mildly bunched. I figure, no matter who wins, we've gotta be in better shape than with the current borderline-illiterate jackass. Right? Right?

                              Well watching the RNC, I can say the message is McCain will shake up Washington, but they aren't making him out to be against Bush or his policies at all. They are talking about taking on Congress.

                                I think thats because this is a repug convention and he's a repug pres. That said, when it came down to it, he wasn't there.
