McCain has shifted his positions as much as Obama. McCain voted agaisnt bushes tax cuts, was agaisnt off shore drilling, denounced the swiftboating and chastised the evangelical right wing. He has changed on alll of that. They both flip flop the same. I want Obama to name Jim Webb VP. The dems wanted to raise soldiers pay and give the soldiers a GI bill of rights. Jim Webb drafted the bill whihc was supported by man republicans. Both bush and McCain were agaisnt it. Bush said pay raises were not necessary, and neither bush or McCain wanted a gi bill. We shold be rewarding our troops and protecting them by not making them do so many rotations fro so long. The dems are trying to help the troops and McCain and bush are agaisnt all of those things. Jim Webb said he couldn't figure out Mccains opposition to the same gi bill our soldiers got in the secodn world war. I think the main fiscal difference between republicans and dems is that reps borrow and spend and dems tax and spend. When we borrow and spend our kids have to pay for our luxuries. When we tax and spend we pay for our own bills. I believe in a poker game Obama would beat bush or mcain and I am a pretty good hgh stakes poker player. the world financial system today is one big poker game and we need our best players. Not more mediocrity. In my opinion Obama can figure out the brave new world much better than Mccain. McCain just sort of says anything. Most of his economic ideas make no sense to me and as mentioned I make m living as a trader. Obama articulates ideas I can understand and make sense to me. Cheers,
