I'm not excited about voting for McCain, but I guess I'll have to. I obviously would have voted against Hillary, and now that I see Obama's actual ideas, I realize that even with him running against McCain its not a choice between two equally unpalatable options. For example "Reduce Carbon Emissions 80 Percent by 2050 * Cap and Trade: Obama supports implementation of a market-based cap-and-trade system to reduce carbon emissions by the amount scientists say is necessary: 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2050. Obama's cap-and-trade system will require all pollution credits to be auctioned. A 100 percent auction ensures that all polluters pay for every ton of emissions they release..." barackobama.com "Increase Renewable Fuel Standard: Obama will require 36 billion gallons of renewable fuels to be included in the fuel supply by 2022 and will increase that to at least 60 billion gallons of advanced biofuels like cellulosic ethanol by 2030." barackobama.com "Increase Fuel Economy Standards: Obama will double fuel economy standards within 18 years..." barackobama.com "Provide a Living Wage..." barackobama.com "Reverse Bush Tax Cuts..." barackobama.com "Bring Our Troops Home: Obama will immediately begin to remove our troops from Iraq. He will remove one to two combat brigades each month, and have all of our combat brigades out of Iraq within 16 months." barackobama.com "Obama's Plan to Cover Uninsured Americans: Obama will make available a new national health plan to all Americans... ...Employer Contribution: Employers that do not offer or make a meaningful contribution to the cost of quality health coverage for their employees will be required to contribute a percentage of payroll toward the costs of the national plan..." barackobama.com "Create a Green Jobs Corps... ...Create a Living Wage: Obama will raise the minimum wage and index it to inflation... barackobama.com
