  1. I think Obama's, by accident rather than design, though because:

    (1) Tax and spend >> Borrow and spend.  At this point taxes are going to have to go up sooner or later to reduce the public deficit to reasonable levels, and I think Obama would be more willing to take the heat for doing  it since his voter base is a lot less the "lower my taxes come h**l of high water even if it bankrupts the country" crowd.

    (2)  Obama will end the Iraq war as soon as practical, and whether you think the war was a good idea or not, it definitely is a drain on the economy.  It seems like McCain is "coming around" to the idea of a near-term withdrawal from Iraq as well, however, so this may not be a big differentiator.

    (3) Obama's energy plan is relatively sane and I think the right direction to go for energy stability.  The US simply does not have the oil reserves anywhere to become energy independent with a petroleum-based infrastructure, and the sooner we deal with that reality, the better.

    Unfortunately, I haven't seen either candidate actually talk seriously about balancing the budget (much less fixing the balance of trade) which is what would do the most good long-term.


  2. Like the other poster said, Bob Barr.  I'm a Republican by nature, but I cannot stand McCain or Obama's inability to realize that we need to run a balanced budget. Spending needs to be CUT by however many billions until we reach a point that Spending and Revenue are equal. Otherwise, we keep borrowing from China and shifting the burden of debt to our children to repay.

    I think I'm voting Libertarian this year for the 1st time.

  3. i vote we elect bill gates, he runs a multi-billion dollar company, he should be able to fix the crappy economy

  4. Obama doesn't have aplan.  All he has is ill-informed platitudes.

    I think neither one of them really has a clue.  Difference i that McCain admits it, while Obama is too arrogant to know that he's clueless.

    Obama's plan to increase capital gains tax will be a financial disaster for anyone with a 401K.

  5. Bob Barr.  he is the only one that will end the federal governments meddlesome intervention into the economy and bring back laisez faire policy.  this will boost America into an unparalleled economic boom.  he will also end industry subsidies and stop trading restrictions with other nations and get us out of nafta.  the federal government shouldnt be bailing out private companies that fail.  they fail for a reason, because they arent good.  also he will end the federal reserves policy of printing money whenever they want backed by nothing.  this severely devalues our dollar.  we need to go back to the gold standard.
