this entire affair really sucks, it has a very good chance of throwing the election to Obama, who is, regardless of McCain’s rather dismal record, a far more frightening prospect.

“It’s looking more an more like Palin was just a ploy to get conservative votes.”

Well, it should, because this was part of her appeal. The other was, I assume, democrat and independent voters (mainly female) who might be swayed by here, particularly Hillary supporters. The financial sector events have greatly damaged what appeared to be a potentially winning strategy.

McCain is who he has always been, and his legislative and voting record are pretty clear on this. To think a choice of running mate is anything other than electoral calculus would be to assume he magically changes his views.

Barney Frank should publicly acknowledge his PERSONAL responsibility and RESIGN from his chairmanship of the House Financial Services.

I was hoping that Palin would turn Maverick and “Look America in the Eye” and tell ‘em that the Bailout was wrong, that we are a much stronger Country than Wallstreet claims, that Barney Frank was a major culprit along with dems. She could have won the election for McCain.

I was hoping.

Gentlemen, I have had men watching you for a long time and I am convinced that you have used the funds of the bank to speculate in the breadstuffs of the country. When you won, you divided the profits amongst you, and when you lost, you charged it to the bank. You tell me that if I take the deposits from the bank and annul its charter, I shall ruin ten thousand families. That may be true, gentlemen, but that is your sin! Should I let you go on, you will ruin fifty thousand families, and that would be my sin! You are a den of vipers and thieves..I intend to rout you out and by the Eternal God I will rout you out. If the people only understood the rank injustice of our money and banking system, there would be a ************* revolution before morning.*************”
