Sorry, a senior moment

As to #4, I would make the commercial as thus: The picture of Obama putting his hands down in his groin area when Hillary and Richardson have their hands over their hearts and then play some of “Wright’s greatest hits” in the background. At the end have on “card” that says “Are you really going to vote for this person for President?”

In my opinion, John McCain is head and shoulders above any other choice, so I will be voting for him and doing what I can to help him.

Grow up!


If you think that John McAmnesty is the best choice "head and shoulders above any other choice" of any of the other former GOP candidates (with the exception of Rudy) then you are suffering from Alzheimer's.

With respect to growing up, those of us who will not throw our principles over the side just because somebody has a R next to his name and is the marginally lessor of two evils are the ones who are grown up.

Oh, and in case you don't have a clue, telling someone to grow up, when we are talking about candidates/issues that will affect our freedoms and quality of life and our children's is asinine.

If Hillary does serve as Obama's running mate, and Obama is elected president, the man should get double security! The word among Democratic cognoscenti is that the Clintons would stop at nothing to get back into the White House.

I was on a layover in BWI, and saw a CNN blurb comparing the Dem "Dream Ticket" of Obama/Hillary to JFK/LBJ... a young dynamic motivating speaker (uh-huh) with the seasoned, savvy pol ("savvy" is a nice way to put it). The first thought that sprang to mind was that if Hillary was the Veep, it would be more like JFK/LBJ than they might be thinking (if one were to follow that particular conspiracy theory). Hillary ascends, get two years for free, plus an additional 8 with two "fair" elections, and she can blame her political enemies (the Right) for the assassination, and change laws to punsih those guilty forces that have been against her for so long.

Sorry, but the Gutless Old Party will not run ads connecting Obama to Rev. Wright. They will ignore the issue because they are cowards. Americans, most of whom have a 2 second memory, will long forget the brouhaha about Obama’s religious proclivities and will vote the racist into office. I wish I could share D’Souza’s optimism but the Republicans just don’t know how to fight when the chips are down. They will roll over as they always do.

You are absolutely correct. Obama was counting on the votes of lots of ‘typical white people’ in the election. Lots of ‘typical white people’ didn't like hearing that anti-American garbage from his pastor and liked it even less when it was excused by talk of racism and the charge that we are all racists so anti-Americanism is justified.

People do not hire a CEO who doesn't believe in the company brand. Obama is done.

ON THE NOSE, to this point the McCain Campaign will not say or endorse ANYTHING the least bit critical about either remaining Democrat. #4 will NEVER happen because it wouldn’t be nice. Hell John won’t even let you use Barry’s middle name.

You nailed it. The “right wing attack machine” only exists in the minds of the left with their penchant for projection.

Either vote for him or vote for a Dem or don’t vote.

Those are my only choices?
I can't write in a vote? I can't vote for a third party candidate?

Wow, 'R', 'D', or no vote.
Hmmmmm, I guess it will be no vote then since I won't vote for a 'D' and there isn't an actual 'R' in the race.

Thank You. At times it takes only a word to express ones sentiments and emotions.

The writer is and probably has been in the tank for McCain.
Saying Romney would have been a disaster is stupid.
McCain is going to close Gitmo and bring terrorists to our soil and give them Constitutional rights. A DISASTER.
McCain might do more damage to the GOP than a Dem win.

I wish I knew less about Capt. McCain so that I could disagree with you.
