Excellent job you are doing on this thread, AuntB! Thanks.

If humans cannot rid themselves of these lifetime political parasites, maybe someone with Almighty authority could help out.....just sayin’. I believe deeply that we are the victim of our own arrogance. We believe that we are a self governing people, look at what it has brought us. To the exact same position as those living under a King. People were better off living under the Judges, which essentially were responsible to God alone for the rule over man. We had a nice system when the “rulers” felt responsible to the so called “higher power”.

Some ask how McCain can be doing as well as he is in this race..is it the money??

Money is a big part of it. Big donors by mobsters in Vegas, the La Raza crowd and private prisons who house illegal aliens (GEO’s PAC gave only $5,000 each to the campaigns of Hillary Clinton, John McCain, Rudy Giuliani and Mike Huckabee.....http://www.santafenewmexican.com/Sidebar/Prison-firms-donate-thousands-to-Richardson-http://www.campaignmoney.com/political/contributions/john-hurley.asp?cycle=08 = $500 to McCain several times John Hurley, ceo GEO, contributes BIG to RNC and Charlie Christ.)
NOTE: Remember just a few days ago the prisoners who escaped one of McCain’s private prisons in AZ???

Lying is McCain’s hole card, always has been. By the time this election started, McCain had reinvented himself and his campaign website...’I’ve never been for amnesty, blah,blah, blah....’. He went so far in Tuscon to declare ‘Reagan was wrong for giving amnesty’...

Here’s another thing...he has purchased relevant keywords on the net, so no matter what you’re looking for you get his campaign websites.

[snip]The Search For A Candidate (from the pres primary)

McCain’s people say that every dollar they spend on online search advertising brings in three or four bucks.

The national polls don’t reflect it, but in one sense John McCain is the clear front runner in the presidential race: he leads in search-engine ads. When you type McCain’s name into Google, alongside or above the standard search results you’ll always get a text ad—a “sponsored link”—that leads you to a Web site soliciting campaign contributions for the Arizona senator. What happens when you type “Giuliani” into Google? You get a paid link to the former New York mayor’s site. But you also get a McCain ad.

The other obvious search words involve search terms people use when researching specific issues. Here again, McCain is busy; his people say that at various times they’ve bought 10,000 different words. Giuliani pops up with “flat tax” and “illegal immigrant.” But when I tried “universal health care,” nothing from any candidate came up. Vary it a little by typing “health care reform” and you get a paid link to … John McCain
