OT: If it gets down to McCain or the Dems I am moving into Gold. McCain is a Dem in hiding, even talking about needing carbon credits started, which I think is a scam. He is not committed to tax cuts or immigration.

Let me tell you my personal experiience with McCain. He is head of the Senate Commerce Commitee. I was a Directv dealer for 12 years. One of the biggest complaints when Directv first came out was how to get the networks like ABC, NBC etc. They had the national feeds at that time out of New York and LA and wanted to offer them to subs, but McCain (whose largest contibutor every 6 years for his campaign was Cablevision) and his cohorts felt it would be unfair to the cable companies if we were able to offer national feeds to subs in a broadcast area or cable area. Therefore everyone had to also subscribe to Cable's basic teir. Even today those people from Pittsburg or New York, living in say Fl, who are willing to pay extra, can't get those channels added at an extra cost. He has always backed up the cable companies about a la carte programing being detrimental to them. He is a status quo guy, not very progressive. Couch Potatoes Unite
