I do think Obama is the most principled candidate out of the three. I mean take the current gas tax holiday flap; both Hillary and McCain have said they think global climate change is real and is a big problem but both want to lower gas prices? How can you believe that human caused global warming is "the biggest threat to humanity today" (to quote Hillary) yet propose legislation which is likely to increase green house gas output? Those are contradictory positions and it sounds like blatant pandering to me. I really want someone who will actually solve problems instead of just offering the same short sighted pandering and Obama is the only one who has done that on this issue.
Excellent point. Bleed consumers that have to drive to work. Promotion of hybrids and installation or improvement of public transportation makes sense.
You really only have to take bets on who the next VP for McCain will be. Obama and Hillary are slashing their own throats, and the other's with the other hand.
