Don S asked:
That is, registered Democrats will vote for Obama because Obama is a Democrat. Similarly, registered Republicans will vote for McCain because he is a Republic. Bothe candidates could’ve been certified morons and still people of their respective parties will be willing to vote for them. I’m an non-partisan myself and thus have no party affiliation. May the best man win regardless of what party he belongs.

I vote for the best candidate.
McCain’08
McCain best of the two…..I’m independent
I like the way you think. I was raised a Democrat, But today the Democratic party no longer represents my views. I have switched to the Independent party and will vote for a candidate that is in line with my views.
I vote for the candidate not the party…
I vote for the individual. McCain stands for everything i oppose. I’m voting Democrat.
That is a good point. I am a Pro-McCain independent. I believe that McCain can’t possibly be worse than the guy who passed 2 out of the 130 bills he introduced. Pathetic!
People who care about issues usually have a party preference and vote their party on the national level because the parties really do represent different philosophies for what government should do for people and who should be taxed and since the end of the cold war foreign policy. I would not vote for someone who’s policies that I oppose unless my party’s candidate really was a moron. One hopes that neither party nominates a moron, and at some point in the future it will not always be a man.
