You know, I have to admit that I had a quiet feeling of success for McCain before he introduced Sarah Palin! So whats gone wrong now you might ask, on the other hand you might say it's got nothing to do with you Ron, but I think you would be wrong!! There is no doubt that the USA rules the world, and it is that very fact that worries me so much about McCain getting in. How would Sarah Palin handle the world? Wow, that frightens me, that really frightens me!! Although I know little about her past it but according to the press it seems she 'bent the rules' a little to persuade others, that frightens me greatly!! Barack Obama? Well, if he makes it I will be concerned but not surprised. I don't think the USA is ready for a black President, so what am I saying? It doesn't bear thinking about!! So what do you think fellow US POE members?

I know what I think Ron, more of the same! Junior USA, or England as we sometimes know it, is bound to suffer whoever gets in. There's nowt we can do about it though, so let's get used to more Mc.Donalds, Burger Kings, guns and children saying ''whatever''. Heaven help us all.

Don't be Diana. There are millions of great things about America, but as Peter says, we seem to inherit the not so good stuff!!

I know nothing about politics but I'll tell you how I feel.

Sarah Palin scares the crap out of me.  God help us all if she is VP and McCain kicks the bucket!!

McCain is so far up Georgie's butt he can't see the light of day.

Obama I do like although I don't think he has enough experience. I think he is the lesser of the two evils. 

Very scary times these are!! Frown

As an English citizen, I am unable to vote, but my gut tells me we won't have to worry about Sarah Palin being VP, or worse still President if something happens to McCain.

I think Obama will get the vote that counts.
