McCain is to old to be prez.

McCain is to old, he is seventy-two and served in the Veitnemase war, sure he has exspirience in a fight but he is going to die in office and you know what that maens SARAH PALIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Will be prez. And come on She is a load of

why

i think that this is some real mickeymouse bs cause u really don't know how to beleive because they all lie!

Look at political history

I can't see why everyone is up on Obama. What experience does he have? Look back, who has been basically in charge for the last two years? The Democrats. So you can't blame Bush for everything. Look back to the Clinton administration and you will find where FannieMae/FreddieMac started causing trouble. Look at 2005 when McCain and other Republicans were trying to do something about the 2 FM's. Where were the Democrats? Taking a vacation, sticking their heads in the sand, or whatever, just like they did recently when the oil drilling situation came up. They definitely weren't taking care of business. A lot of our economical situation started before Bush even took office. So, Dem's get your representatives heads out of the sand and make them work for their pay. Clean your own house first. What's Hilary Clinton out campaigning for Obama when she should be in Washington earning her money. I'm not paying her to campaign. I am proud to say that there is only one Democrat in Washington that I voted for. I want a President that will appoint Judges that interpret law and not make law, like those radical idiots in California. I dread getting a Judge appointed by Obama. That Judge will probably be more radical than the idiots in California.

Issue at Hand

Obama is easily the worst possible candidate, that does not mean I support McCain. In fact, I was very vocal during the republican primaries that he was the worst possible republican nominee, as was Obama the worst Democratic nominee. That is why this election is a sad state as to the direction of U.S. and its people. Obama has a good plan economically but he does lack on his Commander and Chief side. Where as McCain is the opposite I think he would be such a better choice as Commander in Chief but may be lacking on Economic side. If McCain could just come up with a better Economic plan, than I would feel completely comfortable with him as President.

A SOCIALISTIC EUROPEAN CLONE?

I FAIL TO UNDERSTAND WHY DOCTORS LIKE SANTAGO SEEM TO THINK THAT THEY ARE THE ONLY ONES IN THIS WORLD WHO HAVE JUDGEMENT.

WHY SHOULD THE REST OF THE WORLD, ESPECIALLY EUROPE INFLUENCE OUR ELECTION?

JUST BECAUSE EUROPE IS SOCIALIST DOESN'T REQUIRE THE U.S.A. TO EMULATED THEM.

THEY CAN MIND THEIR OWN BUSINESS JUST AS BUSH SHOULD HAVE DONE RE. IRAQ.

For God's Sake, Learn From History

In the 2000 US election the world was bemused when the American public elected a man who could barely string an unscripted sentence together. This turned to horror in 2004, when they did the same, despite his obvious arrogance and incompetence. Now the chickens have come home to roost, not just for Americans, but for the rest of the world, as we all suffer for this administration's incompetence. Recent initiatives by the Economist and other organizations have shown the overwhelming global support for Obama, just in case Americans can't see the wood from the trees again. It is not just your houses that are depreciating, your jobs that are at risk, your share portfolios that are dropping, or your pension funds at risk. We are also suffering because of unsupervised greed and corruption on Wall Street. For God's sake, finally learn from history, as none of us can afford another four years of Republican misrule.

COME ON JOHN

LOOK FORWARD Senator McCain. Too much effort attempting to discredit your opponents (with sometimes half truths). Remember, we're listening to help ourselves decide who's going to be our next President. Think LEADERSHIP!!!!!! www.LikeSoup.com

World Economy

The whole world is affected, and Obama cannot save the world. Should it be Biden/Obama instead of Obama/Biden? We need a seasoned leader to lead the world during this critical time, and Obama is too narrow-minded, inexperienced, unqualified and liberally leftist. He will cause another deeper recession, with his big spending and higher taxes, that reminds me if the ghost of Jimmy Carter. Who is the real Barack Obama??

- WAKE UP AMERICA!!! This is happening all across America. The mainstream media is blocking it because they are biased and want Obama to win. Be informed! Research ACORN & PRO VOTE and what is happening. ACORN and PRO VOTE is where Obama got his community organizer experience which he thinks gives him the experience to be President. His campaign has given ACORN and Pro Vote $800,000 to get the vote out. I'd like to know how many republicans they have signed up. Our tax $ go to ACORN so they are to be non- Partisan. This is happening in Ohio, PA, NC, NV, FLA, MO, TX, NM, WI, MI, IN and I may be missing more states. We need a grass roots drive. Ask people you know if they know about ACORN. Educate them. ABC, NBC & CBS are blocking getting this out! Pure Sensorship!!

Too Passive???

Just how can McCain say that Obama is too passive when he already has a full cabinet and/or advisors ready for day one of the best and brightest minds??? From Robert Rubin, Madeline Albright, Paul Volcker, etc... While McCain is focusing upon attacks and politics, Obama is focusing upon leading our nation. Volcker is also working as head on the G30 financial group to reregulate the financial markets keeping Obama in the loop instead of focusing upon strutting beauty queens & trophy wives in front of the cameras. In short, Obama has style & substance while McCain has neither!!!
