Are you for real? This administration, of which John McCain has been a part for over 1/4 century has managed to totally devastate our national economy! Are you personally, better off today than 8 years ago, if so, then go ahead and vote for the GOP. Our national debt, which was balanced when they took office is more than tripled within this administration. The debt totals more than the debts accumulated by ALL PREVIOUS PRESIDENTIAL ADMINISTRATIONS combined. Did you know that? I plan to vote for someone who has been consistently on the message, calm, collected and who I think will manage any emergency in the same fashion and not like his opponent. Do your research and think again.
