  • Re: McCain and Palin BARELY graduated college!

    WoW. WHAT A DIFFERENCE! It's amazing that Palin even got elected GOVERNOR never mind selected as VP! No wonder she doesn't know anything and they both seem fairly, um, well, unsophisticated (to be kind). I know who I'm voting for!

  • Re: Polls

    I'm sitting in the middle of the road right now, although comments that people make because they make more than me wants to jump on the band wagon of the underdog. Most people who vote for someone that allows corporate companies to control this country it usually doesn't effect them so they will vote to allow jobs to go overseas and to allow 4 ...

  • Re: No McCain

    TheRaven: Republicans and the Palin-centric part of the McCain campaign have been the purveyors of the most divisive and negative message I have ever seen in my life The truth about Obama is pretty negative. Sorry that the truth hurts, and that it's divisive, but it's still the truth. Deal with it. If you Dems wanted a more positive campaign ...

  • Dear Fellow Voters

    Dear Americans Obama talked about the need for holding those responsible for the current financial crisis accountable. But he didn’t include himself, his leftist friends who turned the mortgage industry into another failed welfare program, his campaign advisors who stole tens of millions from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac before jumping ship to join ...

  • Focus on Supporting Obama

    I'm wondering... when will Obama supporters be as vocal about how Obama's policies will improve our country rather than being lost in the distraction that is Sarah Palin? We actually have an opportunity for real change in this election. More people feel enfranchised because of Obama's nomination. We have a chance to united our country and take ...

  • Not a serious candidate

    Nice article, and I agree entirely. But if Palin is not a serious candidate, what does that say about Obama? Sure, McCain may be old (notwithstanding that his mother is in her 90s and still going strong), which means that Palin could be far closer to having to step into the president's shoes than any VP in a long time. But there is no question ...

  • Wow- just a little slanted? Palin terrific reform alternati

    This must be the well-balanced part; half arguing why Obama, and the other half why not McCain. So- McCain claiming that Palin is qualified to sit in reserve now means that Obama is also qualified? Why doesn't it work that while, yes- Obama selected a more experienced running mate, that was because he needed to; McCain was able to fill other ...

  • A HUGE MISTAKE

    it is my contention that Mr. Barak Obama has not been fortright about his intentions and he is NOT what he seems to be. There is nothing Hilary Clinton can do, if this is true, Mr. Barack Obama failed to call Hilary Clinton she is not chosen to be Vice President. the Cinton's are TOO MUCH of a threat to Obama's presidential bid and if he wins. ...

  • A Cabinet Post for Hillary?

    Hey, I'm as disappointed as any of you Hillary supporters that she isn't the nominee of the Democrats. But I'm over it and ready to look ahead. It's time to get behind Obama and get the Bush Bums out of the White House! PUMA? Get real. The only ones who are benefiting from the likes of you all are the Republicans. Nothing says ''weak'' better than ...

  • U Have to Break GOPeggs to make an Omelette

    Obama was never going to be able to keep this election 'clean'. With Limbaugh, Hannity, Savage, Beck, with Rove and Buchanan and a host of bloodsucking GOP operatives running loose, the innocent little ones are just not safe. And any man knows, if you want to keep the kids safe, you have to make your presence felt, either by making a lesson ...
