Four years of Obama would be great for the nation and give the Republicans a chance to regroup and get back to what they stand for. The country has survived the last eight years of egregious spending and Obama would not be worse. Obama has mentioned postponing the tax increases on the highest brackets if the economy is struggling, but wants to push through his tax cuts on all the other brackets.

The bottom line is that both parties are going to spend like drunken sailors. The Republicans are going to max spend on wars and national defense and spend only enough to get by on social services. The Dems are likely to do the opposite. Neither will address social security, medical care and energy.

I will vote for whose energy policy I prefer the most. I'm not impressed with "Drill Baby Drill" and I'm less impressed with the Dems who oppose it with no rational reasoning behind their position. To me there is only one reason not to drill and it has nothing to do with the Dems faux-environmental concerns.
