I don’t like getting political on this blog, because that could lead us all down a long and winding rabbit trail, however I found a service today that I thought was pretty interesting.  The site is PollCash.com, it asks you relevent political questions such as: Which Presidential candidate is right about Iraq and Afghanistan? Republican John McCain, who says the surge is working, or Democrat Barack Obama, who says that focusing on Iraq and not Afghanistan was a grave mistake that put our national security at risk?

You can vote today at pollClash.com to directly compare and vote on video soundbites from the election campaign.

The latest pollClash – posted today – compares the candidates’ statements to ABC News on Monday, July 21, as Sen. Obama visited Iraq on the first stage of his fact-finding visit to the Mideast and Europe. Obama told ABC that the Bush administration’s decision to focus on Iraq was a strategic mistake that had put success in Afghanistan at risk. Sen. McCain countered that failure in Iraq would put Afghanistan at risk and that “the surge is working.”

The new pollClash asks you:

• Which candidate is right about Iraq and Afghanistan?
• Which is right about the war on terror?
• Which is better qualified to keep the U.S. safe?

You can show how you feel – and how strongly you feel – by moving a slider to answer each question. Once you vote, you’ll be able to see instantly how your vote compared to other voters. And you can join the debate by reading and posting comments right on the site.
