McCain a Bush clone?

He is in absolute terms a Bush clone, he voted along with him 90% of the time, he's flip flop on the other 10% to energize the right.

Palin

Most Americans are stupid and relate to Palin's ignorance. That's why McCain will win. He knows that Americans love lies and trash talk. Besides, most Americans are racist. They will not be able to overcome their racist views even if it's for their own good. I hope I'm wrong.

hey

good job

clone?

McCain a Bush clone? Talk about hyperbole

Media is Obama Network

It is the Media, the Obama - Network that inevidably will win. They have attacked Palin heartlessly. It will be up to the voter and the citizen to see if we can show them who really is boss.

We can fight back! Sign the petition to resits Media smears.

Republican hypocrisy

I have attended services with an evangelical friend and all I heard from the preachers are you are condemned to hellfire if you do not convert to their religion. They are against abortion, pre-marital sex, smoking, drinking, music and a hell of a lot of other things including bringing false withness to friends and family. Well, I see McCain and Palin as very hypocrital because they have not abided by their own religious beliefs. One of the simple tenets of the conservative movement is respect for the individual. McCain and Palin show no rspect for their opponents, on the contrary, they easily will lie, manipulate, mock and denigrate anyone who does not agree with them. From what I have read, Palin bore a child eight months after she married, she has lied without blinking an eye and continues to lie just to get what she wants. Even Karl Rove, the Master of Deception, admitted on CNN that McCain/Palin have lied throughout the campaign and in the ads McCain has run so far. It is disappointing that Palin runs as a strong evangelical and preaches to others about abortion and the sin of pre-marital sex but does not practice what she preaches. If the Bush/Cheney ticket scared me the McCain/Palin ticket terrifies me.

ohio

I think for obama it will be even easier to win florida and indiana then ohio.

Ads not negative

If the definition of a negative ad by Obama is to show McCain with Bush, you counted wrong. McCain is a Bush clone. Showing them together is not negative, it is a true fact of life. We all know that. Look at McCain's record. The negatives ads against Obama are typically based on outright lies, 10% truths and bits and pieces of multiple incidents pasted together to give a meaning that never existed.

McCain

As troubling as it is that McCain + the RNC's money is greater than Obama + the DNC, it also means that in supporting McCain's campaign so heavily, the RNC has almost nothing in the tank left to help out anybody else. Even if McCain does get in, he will likely be facing a heavily Democratic House and Senate.

Not that that will stop Palin from having him assassinated, pushing the big red button and bringing Jesus back in all his glory to usher in the End Times.

McCain

McCain should get a better dentist. His upper plate flutters so it is distracting at those times when he says something.
