Yes. But i bet the whole world would not be forced to endure hours and hours of news stories for months and months and months about it. I hate that we have to hear about every little thing that comes out of their mouths from the other side of the world. Who gives a flying F..K about the lead up to an election, just wake me when its over.

yeh for sure
loll McCain would be the oldest thing in New Zealand

Obama might get elected but he would be National Part right wing McCain would fit in with some of the loonies in New Zealand First and would pick up a few geriatric and grumpy votes. Palin would have to talk to journalists and her views would make her a laughing stock -a creationist?

All in all, if that is the best the US can come up with, no wonder their economy is on the skids.

i have a secret, when im sick of the obama and mcbush crap i change the channel to history channel or nature channel, sometimes i watch football like liverpool or olympiacos

if mccain or obama were running where would winston peters and rodney hyde work? - sic

i might become a suicide bomber if we had mccain, obama im not sure about, depends if he ends the war in 6 months or 6 years really

I agree with Jodie C...
Why is it that every other country in the world has to listen to all that on every news program about Obama and McCain... I don't care.
I bet they didn't get coverage of the recent Australia election... why should we have to endure all of theres.

Wake me up when it's over too.

yeah Obama...

We're Anti-war afterall.

I wonder if we only had 2 choices if it would be easier to get real information about what they really stand for. Or is it part in pacel to be cliche in politics?!

I think Obama would win, republicans wouldnt go down too well with the average kiwi. But honestly i think helen clark is pretty good, shes done alot for the country still thinking its a small nation with less people than most major cities.

I'd vote for Obama here so i'd have to say him. However, I dont know enough about New Zealand infrostructure to give a pure answer on this one. But people really should lighten up a little. A question is just that a question. And just because not everyone agrees on one thing doesnt mean they should have their head bitten off.
Geez people chill out!
We need to all learn to have just a little tolerance.

Most likely he would, although like Grant said that would basically mean National running against NZ First. I can't believe they call Obama an extreme left winger over there! Still I'd prefer him over slimy john key any day.

Yes. Anybody who'd vote Republican needs a brain transplant.

Neither of them would be able to stand in NZ - we just can't afford their style of "democracy" which after all, is hardly democratic.

You can't insist that you are in a democracy just because one party calls itself "Democrats". (Our "National' Party too, is hardly nationalist.)

But, if it ever came to that dreadful situation that you've outline Wabby, I think Yes. NZers would in general be most unlikely to be sympathetic to McCain and his policies.

Obama would probably not have a problem winning, becuase of his Liberal viewpoints, McCain is just to conservative for New Zealand.

what kind of question is this. no substance. they cannot and will not run in new zealand. they havent even won in their own country you ask who will win in another...i do hope obama wins in US.
