Here's the catch. They switched their views. So to someone who wanted Obama as president, they would read off McCain's views and say they were Obama's. For example "do you agree with Obama's position against gay marriage, or against abortion?" And vice-versa for McCain.
They even went as far to tell people that Sarah Palin was Obama's running mate. They asked what people thought about her and what they thought about having the first woman vice-president.
A lot of people apparently were easily misguided, and did not know enough to separate the two candidates views and running mates, because many of Obama's supporters replied by talking about how they agreed with banning gay marriage, and abortion and about how it would be exciting to have a the first black man and the first woman in office. And some went as far as saying they thought Palin was a great choice for VP on Obama's behalf.
Seriously?
Do people even try to know who they are voting for?
Or do they just do it because of person bias?
A lot of people are going to vote for Obama because he's black, just like a lot of older rich people will vote for McCain because he's older and rich. Just like republicans will blindly vote republican and democrats blindly vote democratic.
on both sides you have so many people who don't look at the issues.
Who knows, maybe it's better that way. Ignorance is bliss and all.
Cause I've looked at the issues and like I said before I see no real hope in politics.
