It all boils down to what is likely, what YOU think is likely, to happen under either.
I'm voting for Paul because I like the guys attitude; We can all just pretend the current political reality is all there is and there is no opportunity to straighten the nation out and just vote for McCain and hope for the best or we can work, a small step at a time, for the things we believe are proper in terms of policy and ideology and that doesn't mean settling for a candidate whose only virtue is that he is, somehow, less pregnant than the other major choice.
Bru is voting for Obama in the sincere hope that he wins and the hope that it moves we, the people, back to the right because he, and I, sure don't see McCain doing that.
There's no way in hell I could ever vote for someone whose policies are to the left of Mussolini's, like Obama has enunciated so far. So, I takes my chances with Paul because he is who I'd really like.
