The elites view the platform as a toy to keep the children occupied and away from the “adults” who are actually running things. In the case of the Republican party they are running things into the ground.

Well it sure worked during the primaries where the children fought over who was the "real" conservative and who was pure enough. In the end, all that work didn't make a damn bit of difference. The GOP chose the "next in line" like they've been doing for decades. The real beneficiary of any platform fight would be Obama of course.

I called McCain's office today after receiving a letter asking for a donation to his campaign. I had to leave a message which I thought was rude since I had called another phone number and didn't get an answer to that either. In the message I told him that I could NOT donate to his campaign because of the high gas prices and the stress it has added to our finances. We are hardly the only Americans that have this problem but how many will complain to those who could do something NOW! THIS is the time to force their hands and do something now while they are asking for money. McCain needs to go to Washington and sponsor a bill that would drill now and begin to build nuclear energy,and tax credits for American that buy cars that get good gas mileage and a tax-cut incentive to the automobile companies to build flex-fuel cars. Obama is beginning to see the writing on the wall in regards to Iraq because things are going better and his trip to Iraq will confirm it. These politicians have the nerve to ask for money when they have done nothing for 30 years to get this country off of foreign oil!! They need to be told they will only get money if there is something done now. The candidate that gets out front and actually goes and does his job as Senator and fights for the American people to have new forms of energy and will drill now! And to hell with the Caribou.
