Most of us have already made up our minds, so we are exchanging "opinions" to influence who?
Actually, I haven't made up my mind. Pre-Palin I had decided to vote Barr. But at this moment, I'm completely up in the air about what to do.
I hate McCain. There are personal reasons aside from the obvious disagreements I have with his politics and policy decisions. (If you need to know more about why, you can check out my website for more info. Sneaky immoral bastard).
If I vote for him, it will be with the hope that his ticker kicks out before too long into the presidency. It would also be with the hope that Palin can in fact stand up to the Republican puppet-masters, not to side blindly with the dems as McCain is known to do, but to buck the big-government interests of both parties.
There is no way my vote is going to Obama. Being a small business owner, I can't afford his promised tax hikes but I also know his social aspirations and promised new government agencies will continue to bankrupt the country.
So what do I do? Vote for Barr, who is also a flawed candidate but supposedly stands for the principles I match most closely to? or vote for McCain with the hope he won't be President for long.
