Slightly more people found Obama riskier (though it's within the margin of error):
In the poll, conducted July 27-29, 57 percent say Obama would be a risky choice, while 54 percent say the same of McCain.I think the people are right about this, they are both risky and I'm not surprised that people are wary of both. Though, I think that McCain is less risky since he's not a Marxist.

The complete lack of real content that this post has just completely vindicates the idea of this blog just a place to post a lot of "blabbing."
Michelle, how very Un-Christian of you to resort to name calling! You better go to confession... Oh I forgot you don't believe in that, your reformed and chosen and of the elect.
By the way, the people who called themselves "The Way", the Judean Christians of the first century, believe in having all things in common with no personal ownership. That sound like communism to me. What do you say to that? (Read Acts 4:32-37)
moonshadow, interesting read on the mccain-180 (not to mention the reminder that the politics of fear is alive and well). thanks.
point taken.
McCain is, to me, riskier than Obama. First because of his character - I fear McCain is too unpredictable and might lose his temper and start WWIII.
Secondly, I feel that McCain is past his prime. He certainly, in my book, would have been a better President than Bush if he had been elected in 2000. (For that matter, McCain would probably not have gone along with stealing the election from Al Gore.)
I think with Obama we risk having a mediocrity as President. We've had that before, and I think we could survive that.
alicia, couldn't agree with you more here. i actually liked and respected the mccain of the past. a lot has changed in the past decade...
