Obama.
My girls are 2 1/2 and 8 months old and I think he'd just have more energy to keep up with them! 
That said, my husband thinks that McCain might be a good grandfather-type of figure.

They're politicians - would you really trust either to watch your kids?!

Honestly, I'd trust both of them. Think about it: harming a hair on my kid's head would ruin their campaigns!
But if I had to choose one, I'd choose Obama. I think he'd have more of the energy required to chase my 13-month-old around the house!

John McCain. He has the experience and seems to really value family and family time.

I would trust either one of them. Just because they are politicians, they're are still humans and I'm sure both of them have been wonderful fathers.

Obama for sure! You need someone younger to keep up with a 16 month old and I believe his family values are better than McCain's. He's still married to his first wife and what's McCain on #2 or #3????

I'd choose McCain. My kids love spending time with grand-parent type people, probably because they let them do whatever they want. But Obama would have the energy to keep up.
