As an American, are you ashamed that so many people are voting for Obama, just because he is Democrat?

Question

You'd be surprised how many people want Obama in office just because he is the opposite party of Bush. No matter what change happens, people just want it to happen so they think Obama is the best candidate. Even though there will be change no matter who the new President is. What are your thoughts?

Answer 1

You are under the illusion there is a difference, there isn't. You have as much power as an Iranian they just keep telling you you're free.

Answer 2

I'm ashamed so many people are voting for him just because he's black.  

Answer 3

As ashamed as I am of people voting Republican because of "Anything but Barry" mentality.

Answer 4

My vote at this point could go either way I haven't made the choice just yet. I will say this only because there is no chance Bush would be running. The party has nothing to do with my choice. But this time it's not such an easy choice because this time I will not be voting for who ever isn't Bush like I had done the past 2 times. I registered to vote just to vote against him, dumb I know but I felt like it was right for me. This it will be more of an informed decision; I am a littler older now.  

Answer 5

Not anymore ashamed that many people are voting for McCain because he is a Republican.

Sorry, but it goes both ways.

Think harder next time.

Answer 6

I am ashamed of the American public in general. Yes that would include me. We spend more time and energy hacking at each other. The only thing that really stuck from the McCain speech was that we should take the good from both parties. But as you can see it ain't gonna happen. Who needs enemies?

And I am unanimous in this.

Answer 7

I'm ashamed that Republicans would think that a shallow pick like Palin would cause Hillary's women to drop their allegance to Obama and vote for Palin, just because of her s*x.

Answer 8

I don't think it is unwise to assess the Bush administration, and choose "not-Bush" at this point. Nothing wrong with that thinking. I completely disagree with your assertion that there will be no change no matter who is elected.
