Considering the alternative was putting Palin a heartbeat from the football.... Not embarrassed at all. Doesn't mean I like or agree with the things Obama is up to, but given the choice between the McCain/Palin ticket and the Obama/Biden ticket, I'd still pull the lever for Obama/Biden. No embarrassment at all... other than the fact that as a nation we can't seem to field better candidates for President.
Next time the GOP will run a reasonable candidate or I'll vote for Obama again. And I won't be embarrassed that time either. I wasn't embarrassed to vote for Bush in 2004 either when the alternative was Kerry. Why be embarrassed now?
McCain and Obama were not the only ones running for president. For the first time in many years, we actually had enough people disgusted with both parties to put in a third party but too many refused to be brave enough to vote out the dems and reps.
I voted constitutional party, I'm not ashamed. If Ron Paul and run as an Independent, I would have voted for him and I believe he would have one, he was the only one in the republican party that was telling us the truth, no one in the democratic party was telling the truth.
