If we are going to be one-issue voters then the question is: what HAS to be the #1 ISSUE is your vote based on?

Mine will be for military men and women - whom is the best choice for Commander in Chief of our ARMED FORCES during A TIME OF WAR?

Obama? NO WAY

Hillary? HELL<NO

McCain? YES

Before you decide, you need to read a refresh on a latest post (excerpt) entitled to evaluate RINO McPain’s support of the military:

Senators to question US generals over abuse scandal (Hunter smacks McCain over Abu Ghraib - 2004)

Three senior US generals will appear before senators today to explain what they knew about the abuse of Iraqi prisoners by soldiers under their command.

My one issue is the Global Warming scam. It’s adherents threaten our liberty and our economic future every bit as much as Islamofascists. The difference is, they’re winning the PR war, and many otherwise reasonable people have bought into their baloney.

NO ONE who buys into the Global Warming scam will ever get my vote. Especially not one who has been in the forefront of dangerous stuff like “cap-and-trade.”

Juan McStain can go to Hell.

I will respectfully say that in my opinion, we don't know which of your three are "better," nor could we probably agree what "better" even means. No one in the military other than some career officers seemed to have much good to say about the Clinton years; complaints about the repeat and extended deployments are common complaints about the Bush years. Certainly Hillary Clinton is no friend of the military, and that is not debatable. Her husband also loathed the military (probably) as much, yet he didn't hesitate to use it on Serbs or empty tents. John McCain is willing to let POWs/MIAs slip into oblivion, and plays games with the current CinC to the detriment of the mission. Like Hillary Clinton and B. Hussein Obama, he thinks terrorists need to have more rights. Obama PROBABLY leans more toward Hillary's open disdain rather than John's lip service, but that's just my guess.

In a nutshell, they will ALL use the U.S. military to further their own goals, whatever those goals may be. ALL three are demonstrable liars who probably have no business being CinC.

As a soldier's dad, my vote was no doubt simply assumed to be in the bag for McCain when the smoke-filled room types set out to anoint McCain. They were wrong, and all of us will pay for their many miscalculations.
