This will surprise no one

by Bryan Strawser · Nov 4, 2008

Not anyone that knows me, anyways.

I’m voting for John McCain this morning.

I’m intrigued by Barack Obama – earlier this year I took the time to read through his position statements on most major issues. Unfortunately for the junior Senator from Illinois, I disagree with him on just about every major issue – particularly economics, taxes, gun control, and how to best prosecute the War on Terror / War in Iraq.

I’ve always liked and respected John McCain – and while I also disagree with him on many policy issues (abortion, for example) – he is a much better candidate for this office than Mr. Obama.

Should Mr. Obama win tonight/tomorrow, come January 20th at noon, I’ll marvel at a country that elected its first non-white President – and I’ll continue to hold the Presidency in high regard and continue to respect the office and the person that holds it. Which, I suspect, is alot more than Obama’s supporters will do should John McCain win… but I could be wrong.

As for local races, there’s no way in hell I would vote for Al Franken…
