There are those who will vote based on such things as race or religion. Look at the flak Kennedy got for being Catholic or that Romney is getting due to his Mormon faith. People pick on such shallow things to latch on when they vote, but the main issues they should be considering is the issues. And right now, if you choose not to support Obama, you in danger of being labeled racist. It's just a name game worthy of the schoolyard.

UCant, that is the age-old hypocrisy of being a liberal: Never look outside the Democratic Party for answers to government issues.

A better way to denote this phenomena is the supposed freedom of speech that liberals always claim such affection for: The "Fairness Doctrine" is a case in point.

Funny, I have never considered myself locked into voting for someone strictly based on party affiliation. However, based on Speaker Pelosi's emphatic "NO! Never!" to a vote on drilling, I have decided that until such vote is allowed in the House, I will not vote for a Democrat running for any national seat. The fact is, the "People's House" under Pelosi resembles the Kremlin under Stalin.

p.s. and I don't see anything "ugly". THIS is what elections are... disagreements. Bi-partisan is a foolish... KNOW what you believe in and stand by it. That's what ppl are elected on - their beliefs.
I don't care what color Barack is - he's BAD for the country, with his communist leanings. HE'S the one that keeps playing the race card. Desperate.

I hadn't brought in religion . As I recall we have a separation of church and state. I do want morality but I am seeing a dismaying lack in either candidate.We have had a great many presidents sworn, hand on the Bible who proved to be less than moral., RIchard Nixon comes to mind as does Bill Clinton. At this point, in this race, it is win at any cost. What I hate is that race will separate this nation. I had hoped that here at the beginning of the 31st century we were past that.

DUH Poor eyesight and old age are getting to me

Maybe those Democrats voting for McCain don't want to chance the inexperience of Obama and the possible dire consequences his election may precipitate.

Race will always be a factor as long as blacks continue to scream about something neither you nor I had anything to do with.

This is why I am against reparations. Why would I pay money for slaves I never owned to someone who was never a slave? You liberals must stay high.

No such thing as separation of church and state momcat54. Perhaps it exist in Marxist doctrine, but you won't find it anywhere in our constitution, sorry.

Senator Obama, not Senator McCain, keeps injecting race into the election process. I believe Senator Obama tries to get voters to focus on racial issues in order to avoid having to explain his political positions, which, at best, are shallow.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof (First Amendment). This means that government cannot create a State sponsored religion. This does not mean that religious people are prohibited from participating in the affairs of government.
