    I am too, but I voted for McCain. Although, when I say I'm Pro Choice - I am only pro-choice in very certain and extreme circumstances (when a girl has been raped for example). I am never pro-abortion, however..

    I voted for McCain because I felt he had a better economic plan, and I agreed with his views on the War in Iraq. These two issues are much more important to me at the moment. I am so "middle of the road" though (not strictly republican or democrat) that it was more of me choosing what was more important for me and strategizing what I would prefer to see done at the moment and how. Then, as time went on, things that were coming out about Obama were starting to worry me. I was undecided until a few weeks after the choices for Vice President were announced.

    I agree with the poster above that says Obama is very liberal. Not that this is a bad thing, but I am conservative still in some respect and generally if I were to choose a side I probably lean a little bit closer to the right than left. I like Obama, as a person (can't say the same for Biden), but I think McCain would be more fitting as a president (oh well).

    There were a lot of little issues as well, like things from Obama's past and things he said along the way in the campaign that quite frankly bothered me and made me very wary of him to be in the position of running this country. I hope and pray that he will prove me wrong. I hope that he is exactly what this country needs. I hope the economy gets back in order. I hope he keeps our troops and our country safe.
