While I greatly dislike Hilary, Obama's style of campaign frightens me.
Rather than gaining support by his policies and past decisions, he whips his followers into a fervor with ambiguous positive ideals, almost reminiscient of a revivalist preacher.
Obama's supporters remind me of cultists more than political activists. They shout and scream in favor of vague ideas that don't even resemble the Senator's actual voting record.
Personally, I couldn't care less whether Obama or McCain wins.
They both support the national ID card, the Patriot Act, the Homegrown Terrorism Act, pre-emptive nuclear strikes, and other horribly intrusive policies.
As of now I will be casting my vote for Ron Paul, because he is the only candidate that stands up for freedom and peace. Faced with an intentional blackout by the media, I feel that asserting my freedom by voting for Paul is the best thing to do.
