It has been my argument all through this election season that we need to hold candidates accountable for policy. Obama is "likable enough," but the election isn't about personality. As far as I'm concerned it isn't about unity either. It's about changing national policies. It isn't that I won't vote for Obama. But he doesn't seem to want my vote. Or else he's taking it for granted. Dawn, thank you. It has been my argument all through this election season that we need to hold candidates accountable for policy.

Obama is an amazing speaker who says little or nothing if possible. None of candidates are perfect, yet this is one I can not stomach. What is it with the American public? The majority will vote on style or the warm and fuzzies before looking at the substance of the candidate. George Bush Jr. for 8 years because he seems like a guy you could hang out with and drink beer. Need I say more? Sherry,

Whether he answers it satisfactorily for himself or for you and me, I don't know. He isn't arguing for or against. He's describing. My point in posting it here is that this issues are never simple.
