I share your opinion about Barack Obama vs John McCain – most of my friends and I don’t care – we are in our 60’s and think we have outgrown these two parties. We really have no faith or trust in anything coming out of Washington – when we were very young and our grandparents would talk about the depression and their total distrust of the government, we would roll our eyes and think “here we go again”.
