Tod Palin has refused to testify in the investigation of his wife's alleged abuse of power. They seem to be above the law(perhaps according to the law of Alaska?) Actually the uncooperative witnesses are effectively sidetracking the probe until after election Day! Looks like she's guilty! I wonder if the honorable candidate McCain is ok with this?
i dont get it.. McCain's policies are just retarded and all he talks about is how obama is a bad person.. he cant talk about his policies cuz his speech would end in 30 seconds..
I've never heard McCain talk about getting us out of this economic crisis. Do people REALLY, TRULY think that we support Obama because he is black? I am so curious what actually goes through a person's [McCain supporter] mind as he stands up on a podium and feeds them lies and excuses. They actually believe him? Who CARES if he's fought in a war- does he have the education?? Obviously not because it takes all of his brain power just to sit there and stutter bullshit for 10 minutes.
If you really want to protect this great country, you will vote for Obama for president. Senile McPain will be even worse than Bush at dealing with complex issues, both economic and foreign policy. Obama is a brilliant guy who understands the complex issues we face and can deal with them in an intelligent way. McPain will just do the first thing that pops into his simple and senile mind, and God forbid that Palin becomes president! She has even less understanding of the issues than he does!
All I see Obama do is spend time and money saying negative things about his opponent....How can he say he will reach across both parties and be Bi-Partisan? How will he accomplish anything as President without that? He needs to spend his time on the real issues and not worry about his opponent!
wow talk about McCain not knowing what the he's talking about...obama talks out of his butt.every where he goes he tells a different plan depending on what the people want to hear atleast McCain is consitant. obamas plan isnt going to work just look at all the economists backing McCains plan compared to Obama... wow obama has a great plan lets tax the hard working entrepreneurs that founded this country and give to the scum on welfare that are looking for a hand out instead of a hand up.pathetic

Mr. Obama, PLEASE don't hold back during the debates. PLEASE, let McCain have it. The American people need to know what will happen if McCain is elected.
crackerob, next time you try to discredit Obama with a lie, try to at least make the lie sound believable. Oh wait I guess it is believable if you don't know how your own country works.
HINT: it works like this:
Legislative writes the law.
Judicial interprets the law.
Executive enforces the law.
People like Senators are the Legislative branch. People like regulators are the Executive branch. Republicans are known for hiring bad regulators because they do not believe in regulation.
obama could not get a good job. all the good jobs out of Harvard are given to insiders. obama was older than other students. obama might be book smart but today he is a political puppet. he was told what to do in chicago by wealthy people. obama really is nothing but veneer.
Obama has his nerve. His two top money advisers are part of the reason fannie and freddie failed. Obama recieved the 2nd most money from fan and fred. Obama and his fellow thieves trying to get into the White House will only bring America down. I will never vote for this socialist.
Yea, we know what happen. Obama's two top financial advisers were a part of fannie and freddie and became mulitmillionairs from ripping off the outfit. Obama himself got the second most money from fannie and freddie than anyone else. Obama does not have to look far for the guys who are responsible for the mess. They give him financial advise on how to run the country. Damn, just think if these guys are let loose in the White House. I will not vote for this socialist.
Obama has no executive experience at any level of government; city, county, state, or federal. He doesn't have executive experience as an officer in the military in charge of other men and women serving our country. Obama has run nothing except his political campaign. Obama has no accomplishments; no major legislation. In Audacity of Hope, Obama admits that Reverend Wright was his mentor. The title of his book stemmed from a Wright sermon. Obama attended Wright's church for over twenty years.
If Obama does not respond to the McCain campaign negatively, he's seen as weak. If he attacks, he's labled "run of the mill politician". Personally, I'm glad he's on the attack...it's the only thing Americans respect in a political campaign...unfortunatley.
Freddie and Fannie used lobbying budgets and political contributions to keep regulators off their backs. The top three U.S. senators getting big Fannie and Freddie political bucks were Democrats and No. 2 is Sen. Barack Obama.
Obama has only been in the US Senate for only 4 years(only 2.5 actually doing a Senator's job) and he's managed to grab the number 2 spot.
All that aside, Obama is going to get hurt by these negative campaigns. New type of politician?...if you say so.
"The Fundamentals of our economy are strong" Should we then elect a president who is out of touch with the current situation of the economy. Its funny you should mention lobbyist since some of McCains top campaign advisors were former powerful lobbyst
The senate's job isn't to regulate big corporations, as they are the legislative branch and their job is to make the law, not enforce it. That's the President's job (hiring regulators).
The piece of legislation that caused this whole economic crisis was passed in 1999, which was years before Obama was ever on the Senate, and it was championed by Phil Gramm.
Obama's been passing regulation legislation, so if he was really being paid by fat cats he hasn't done anything for them in return.
Do you know why Fannie and Freddie actually sponsored the Democrats? Let me tell you. The directors at Fannie & Freddie knew for a long time that this economic failure was a potential scenario. As the bush administration was making it more easy for predatory lenders to provide mortgages at unfavorable rates, the market for F&F became less easy accessible. F&F directors and employees started massively spending on political contributions for pure survival! That is not special interest! GOBAMA!
McCain don't know what the hell he's doing or saying. It's more scary that people, actual people is still supporting him after lies from him and Palin. To his list of incompetent.
If you believe that Bush was bad, if you believe that McCain=Bush, I ask: What are YOU going to do about it? You may not support Obama and vote for a 3rd party candidate, or not vote at all. By doing so, McCain may win. Nothing changes, except that youll have a VP whos 100% anti women, and 100% blank on foreign policy. Go ahead, vote for your 3rd party candidate, or dont vote, but stop WHINING, when McCain and soulmate are moving in the White House, its YOU who helped to put them there.
Everyone in my NEIGHBORHOOD is voting for Obama! We are SMART ENOUGH TO SEE how things won't get better on their own. We think Obama can and will improve our country at a steady pace. We KNOW nothing will improve if we continue with the same tired ideas. Sorry McBush- your tyranny is over, we want our CIVIL LIBERTIES, OUR TROOPS AND THE ECONOMY BACK!
Obama is funny on the attack, but also appears slightly uncomfortable. But it's gotta be done. The gauntlet has been thrown down. It is his nature to be positive and constructive and to want to work with the other side of the aisle. He will be a great President if we all give him the chance by getting out there on election day. We must also be ready to observe the process closely and document every minute irregularity.
Why can't we get this info out to the rest of the world? Buy the time on TV and tell America just how badly McCain is lying. The lies and mis-information on McCains site is beyond incredible.
They still claim that Obama is going to raise their taxes, and won't talk about his anti-veteran record.
I was called a liar when I wrote that all the Vet's orgs had given McCain "D's" and Obama "B's".
I think in the information age attacks like these (even in truth) should be left on his website maybe under a "what's wrong with McCain" heading. Obama inspires and gives hope and ambition. He should stick with that, he does it better than anyone since MLK. This attack stuff, while it's all true doesn't suit him.
yeah thats true, but if obama doesnt attack mccain his insults will stomp him. theres an ongoing history of democrats getting beaten because they didnt fight back: Kerry, DuKakis etc.
To appeal to the idiot white trash rednecks in the USA (sorry if your american) he needs to attack mccain and make him look disgraceful
Yeah, but this country is so fraught with a misinformed, politically unaware population, ready to dismiss a candidate on the basis of what type of clothes they wear, that this new brand of below-the-belt campaigning is essential to the language. Witness how the audience in this post enlivens to the SNL analogy; we need constant shots of TV-hyper vigor in our politics.
People need to get out and vote. I talked to some 18 year olds who think Obama has it in the bag. Although he has a slight lead at the moment gallup poll shows them pretty neck and neck. I'm begging you all who haven't registered to please do. Obama is the clear choice for president, but it won't matter if only conservatives show up at the polls.
Excuse me, Mr. Obama, but is this your attempt to create a "Jeremiah Wright" for Mr. McCain? It's never gonna have the same effect. Phil Graham actually likes America. Do you???
I'm a supporter, but, maybe you and all the others in Congress need to get back to DC and solve this problem. From my understanding, this can't wait until you're President.
McCain, if you know how to get Bin Laden now, why are you waiting until you're president to do it. Tell the Pentagon and the CIA now. Show you're really a patriot.
Obama supporters--don't get overconfident. This is going to get uglier.
You can't and shouldn't get involved in going over seas to the war if you're not commander in chief or a troop. A president elect would get laughed at.
If Congress don't agree on laws, it's up to the people AND our president to guide us into some logical balance to agree on laws like health insurance.
Just don't be blinded by the muck and low-blow tactics of Mccain and Palin.. because things will matter the most on November 4 2008 and four years after.
Tod Palin has refused to testify in the investigation of his wife's alleged abuse of power. They seem to be above the law(perhaps according to the law of Alaska?)
