I only read half the first page of the thread, so I have no idea where this comment will land in the discussion of things, but I thought this was funny the other night.

A couple weeks ago I was watching CNN and supposedly someone asked John McCain about what he thinks about the current state of the economy and all he said was [to the effect of:] "I don't know much about the economy's current situation. I'm going to have to read up on what's going on." This was from Wolf or whatever his name is, not a video, so the credibility is in question.

CNN also made a point to show that in an exit poll most of the people that said their #1 issue was the economy voted for McCain.

I am not well informed on McCain though, I just thought it was weird if he really did say that.

Oh and for the record, I am backing Obama. I think the GOP overall is just too sedentary in their social and world views in a time when we need progression. Plus, I would like to see someone from a minority group be president.
