Never liked Oven Chips. You can't beat the traditional deep frying in beef dripping, although cornflower oil's not bad.

No. Epic fail. McCain would be four more years of Bush (if he lives that long), and we don't need that.

The correct saying would be Obama '08.

Being in the UK its not really my problem, but frankly there's no way I would vote for a man who can't remember how many houses he owns. Thats wrong on so many levels.....

Or who cannot tell the difference between Sunni and Shia, gets Shia confused with Al Qaeda, and denies that there have been history of violence against the two main muslim factions, (Sunni & Shia).

Make no mistake however, I won't be voting for Obama either. I don't like any of the choices. This country desperately needs a third party. A TRULY third party candidate, and not a party that ends up helping either of the main two.

Well, by election time, we'll have an unemployment rate (nationally and officially) of over 10% and rising fast. By inauguration time, the banking system will be gone. By the 2012 Elections, we'll have been "saved" by a man on a horse, and the election might not even happen.

Hyperbole? I certainly hope so. At this point, though, I would bet on the 10% unemployment and rising by election day - which is a bit over a month from now.
