The Democrats have been promising socialized medicine since FDR was President. Why haven’t the voters figured out that they never intend to actually deliver on the promise?

I mean, after 65 years, you would think the people would begin to figure this one out!

Four days before the election, Fast Eddie Rendell is on the news talking about reducing state expenditures. It’s about time, and this is typical Dem bs. They think we have short memories.

Fast Eddie’s a great talker. But just watch what PA does on election night. If McCain takes it, tip your glass to Fast Eddie for calling off the fraud dogs.

What’s most amusing to me is how all these “closing the gap” articles don’t seem to acknowledge that these same articles could run every weekend before every election day. I can’t think of a single election where we didn’t see such pieces.

Rendell said one reason the race was tightening was that Republican attacks — that Obama is a socialist, wants to redistribute wealth and will raise taxes — were starting to stick.

I agree with him, that's why I was angry when I visited McCain website, Joe the Plumber issue is nowhere to be found. Only after clicking here and there I found the homemade videos section. Why oh why, the campaign decided to go with other messages (a ton of them, from environmental issue to McCain as a hero) rather than pounding on this again and again, when majority of voters have economy in their mind?

noting that Theodore Roosevelt, a Republican president who McCain cites as a hero, introduced the graduated income tax, under which wealthier people pay a larger share of taxes.

That's a lie. The income tax was introduced after Roosevelt left office in 1908.

Maybe Eddie (Hillary lover) should figure out fast that his interest now is in having Obambi lose BIG so that he is repudiated as potential leader of the party. Worst thing for Rendell will be for Obama to lose so narrowly that he can still be viable for party leadership and take it out on Rendell......

McCain is hopeless. Fortunately, Sarah IS bringing up that stuff. He wouldn't be where is today if not for all her hard work for the campaign. We're gonna drag him over the finish line next week, whether he wants it or not!

Uhh Ed, those aren't attacks. We're just stating the truth. You know, using the candidate's own words.

Yep. And Obama said its selfish to keep money you've earned because the government knows better how to spend it on the things you need!

Isn’t that the state with people who “cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them”?

“WOW Fast Eddie is coming unglued!!!”

No that is just his style. He is being strident knowing the apathy of PA voters. He thinks the dems are still going to win, after all it is HIS state. He has used Clinton tactics to make the Republicans in the PA house and senate run scared.

Remember, he oversaw the state going Dem when the Republicans were somewhat on an upsurge nationally and experiencing an overall conservative “high” otherwise.

He knows how fickle PA voters are.
