Well... no don't do that. Do it for yourself.
And certainly I wouldn't be so lame as to ask anyone to do anything for me (especially to cast such an important vote).
But apparently other idiots might....LOL!

"Sorry nature, no can do. You're a great human being, but McCain is much better prepared to deal with our issues"
How can you say that with a straight face, Jeff.
I can see it now, when McCain tries to deal with leaders of other nations and acts like he did in the last debate, unable to keep his composure as opposed to Obama.
Some are referring to Obama as the "ice man" stone-cold cool under pressure.
McCain "took the gloves off" but could not make Obama crack.
That is the type of leadership we need.
Being able to debate/negotiate under pressure and keep cool.
A hot head like McCain will lead to a further degredation of our standing in the world.

In 2004, as a resident of Arizona, I voted for McCain. He was clearly the best choice. But he's changed. He's a sellout. McBush... and we don't need 4 more years like the last eight. I'd never be so lame as to vote "my" party line... checking off straight D's is something a sheeple would do.
so it's all good. A brighter tomorrow for sure.

No. it's what a Libertarian would do to prevent One Party Rule, both here in California, and nation wide. Democrats erode and destroy my personal civil rights more than Republicans do.

Interesting you'd say that, Ben, since under the current
regime we now have the NSA listening in to all of our phone
calls and monitoring all of our internet traffic. We also
have to live under the Patriot Act that can imprison you indefinitely without recourse (finally the R leaning Supreme
Court is breaking this down) for nothing other than having
a sneer on your face. And you say the Democrats have done more
to abridge your civil and human rights.
I wonder what planet you're on.

Report says Arctic temperatures at record highs
By RANDOLPH E. SCHMID, AP Science Writer Randolph E. Schmid, Ap Science Writer – Thu Oct 16, 3:24 pm ET
WASHINGTON – Autumn temperatures in the Arctic are at record levels, the Arctic Ocean is getting warmer and less salty as sea ice melts, and reindeer herds appear to be declining, researchers reported Thursday.
"Obviously, the planet is interconnected, so what happens in the Arctic does matter" to the rest of the world, Jackie Richter-Menge of the Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory in Hanover, N.H., said in releasing the third annual Arctic Report Card.
The report, compiled by 46 scientists from 10 countries, looks at a variety of conditions in the Arctic.
The region has long been expected to be among the first areas to show impacts from global warming, which the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change says is largely a result of human activities adding carbon dioxide and other gases to the atmosphere.
"Changes in the Arctic show a domino effect from multiple causes more clearly than in other regions," said James Overland, an oceanographer at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory in Seattle. "It's a sensitive system and often reflects changes in relatively fast and dramatic ways."
For example, autumn air temperatures in the Arctic are at a record 9 degrees Fahrenheit (5 Celsius) above normal.
