And maybe its easier to withdraw from life
With all of its misery and wretched lies
If we're dead when tomorrow's gone
The Big Machine will just move on
Still we cling afraid we'll fall
Clinging like the memory which haunts us all

I know a lot of people here vote Democrat because of transgendered rights issues, but do you really think Obama is going to support those issues any more than a Republican candidate? I seriously doubt that Obama loves us or want's to be associated with us anymore than McCain does. If I'm right then what other reasons do transgendered, and transgendered supporters have to vote for Obama? Just because they say they like you and support you to your face doesn't mean they do the same when your back is turned.

The difference is that, while one side doesn't seem to give a shit- the other side absolutely cares. Running against lgbt rights has been a cornerstone of the Republican party for years. It was the biggest issue in 2004, it was how Bush got re-elected, and it probably had a role of some kind in choosing Palin for VP.
THANKFULLY, so far, it has been mostly a footnote in this election.
But why Obama? Well, I am not a big fan of the guy, he doesn't get me excited, I don't think he's particularly talented BUT if the choice is voting for someone who I know is inclined to try to reverse lgbt rights, and someone who is going to be more inclined to keep things as they are- the 2nd choice is the superior choice.
McCain is a concern for me not because of his personal views on lgbt issues so much as my fears regarding his VP pick. My prediction is that if McCain wins, Palin will run in 2012, she'll win, and she'll serve two terms (meaning 12 more years of this bullshit). Why else would McCain be allowing so much of this election to be Palin-mania? Why else would he be going around the country having HER do most the talking? He's parading her around knowing that she will be his successor, and that is what he wants.
She'll prolly run as #1 in the next election no matter what happens, but if McCain loses that's more time for her credibility to falter.
Basically voting for Obama is damage control.
The saving grace could be if the economy tanks, maybe, just maybe, that would make America reluctant to have these guys in office for another 12 years. But I kinda doubt it, this "popularity contest" has had nill to do with the real issues, no one is talking with substance, and no body seems to give two shits if any of the candidates know what they're talking about.

SaraG,
I totally get what you are saying and I can totally respect it. Your concerns are almost a mirror image of how I feel. While I don't like that the Repubs are antigay, antitrans, antidrug, antiporn, etc. I like it even less that the dems are for socialized medicine, tighter gun control, more taxes, more government controls on the people. What's more the islamic radical movements in the world frighten me a great deal, and I don't believe Obama is as capable of handling that problem as McCain. Also I know that many Dems are also antigay, antiporn, antitrans, antidrug, etc. Maybe they don't make an issue out of it like the Repubs do but I don't believe Dems are any more of a friend to us then Repubs are.
So....if Dems aren't going to make it easier for me to be a trans or trans lover, or pot smoker, or porn watcher, then why the F would I vote for them? Because I sure don't like their stance on all of the other important issues like defense, medical care, taxes, and limited government.
