LOL @ this:

“If elected, he would appoint activist judges capable of finding liberal surprises in the Constitution.”

I can just see this: “In a surprise to many, the SCOTUS finds the phrase: ‘From each according to his ability, and for each according to his need’”

Thank God since our favorites the NYT and LAT both endorsed BO! Last night on I believe Larry King, not sure as I was surfing channels, they said the Chicago Trib endorsed BO and that was the first time ever they endorsed a Dem! I find that very hard to believe, does anyone know?
Also liked Lou Dobbs talking about Joe having more media trucks than Bill Ayres.

People are waking up to the disaster that Obama could actually become President.

The Tampa Tribune is a more conservative paper. Not like that bird cage liner, St. Pete Times across the bay.

The Los Angeles Times and the Chicago Tribune on Friday endorsed Barack Obama — the first time either newspaper has supported a Democrat for president.

Obama has picked up endorsements from several other big newspapers in the last week, including the Boston Globe and the Washington Post. He has been endorsed by more than 50 newspapers nationwide, and his opponent, Republican John McCain, has been endorsed by 16, according to Editor & Publisher, a journal that covers the newspaper industry

From each according to his ability, and for each according to his need.

From each according to his gullibility to each according to his greed.

I doubted polls showing Obama leading in Florida, while the state has been hit hard with the mortgage situation and housing prices slump people are realizing in tough times we do not need a person who’s going to take more money from us in the guise of helping us.

McCain will win Florida; especially since Florida now is implementing our voter ID law.

The Florida election will be won or lost between Tampa and Daytona.

The I-4 Corridor is always the main key in any Florida election. McCain has stayed away from Amendment 2 and the GOP doesn’t talk about it. If they did..Florida wouldn’t even be a question mark right now. It would be McCain +20.

Problem is...USF,UCF, and UF fall into those regions and are filled with some of the worst liberals you can dig up this side of Chicago.

Yesterday I heard Obama ranting to a crowd in Florida that John McCain would take away Medicare benefits with his health care proposals. My understanding of the McCain plan is that five thousand dollars would be a tax free allowance for anybody to buy their own health insurance. To me this means that anybody on Medicare would be able to use that five thousand to pay their private supplemental insurance if they want that coverage which takes care of those bills that government Medicare does not cover. If this is the case, then the answer to the lying Obama claim is to let seniors know that not only will their current government paid Medicare plan stay intact, but they will get help for the extended private insurance coverage that many, many, seniors now carry. If this is not spelled out in the McCain plan, then it needs to be.

It should be noted that for the last 36 years the L.A. Slimes has NOT endorsed anyone for president per their policy. They changed their “no endorsement” policy earlier this year.

The Tribune Co. is the parent company of both The Los Angeles Times and the Chicago Tribune. (Tribune Co. bought The Los Angeles Times in 2000).
