What Do Women Want? A Woman on the Ticket!

Wooo!
McCain blowout, Nov 08.
“Dems blow huge advantages by nominating arrogant inexperienced poliltican on ballot”

I don’t want to be disenfranchised like I was by the DNC. I will not be voting for Barack Obama the chosen one. The same holds true for many of my friends and mother/sister in law.
Obamabots: YES WE CAN
Hillary Supporters: NO YOU WON’T

The DNC listened to stupid Obamabots like Donna Brazille who told him that it was a “new” party. Too bad they did not explain that Af-Amer are only about 14% of US and most live in Red States that Obama will never get.
I know people who spend lots of money and time to get Hillary Supporters for McCain and we are succeeding just got this e-mail today and hundreds like it.
“obama supporters are rude, that is why i won’t vote obama, i am a democrat voting for mccain”
Typical because the DNC has turned in to the very thing it used to hate.

Samantha, I too was a Hillary supporter. You summed it up perfectly. Hillary didn’t leave the dems the dems left Hillary.
I said I’d never vote Obama and I’ll never!

I can’t accept that women want people in the white house that believe;
Global warming does NOT exist.
Environmental protection is unnecessary and should be stopped.
All natural resources are to be exploited fully without regard to environmental damage.
The US is the world’s attack dog and is free to invade any country it wants.
The war in Iraq is a “holy war” against the Muslims.
The war in the middle east should be expanded to include Iran.
Evolution does NOT exist.
Creationism should be taught in public schools.
There should not be a seperation between church and state.
Abortion should be banned including after rape or incest.
Homosexuality is a sin against God and should be banned.
Supreme Court Judges should be picked according to agreeing with the items above.

Heard Obama on the stump today attacking Palin. I thought Palin was the GOP VP candidate but Obama despite his top seat on the DNC ticket spends most of his time going for the jugular of Palin who stole his media spotlight. Poor Barry. Why are you not going for McCain, Obama? Obama must feel deja vu from his days of maligning Hillary, another woman.

This is turning out better than Operation Chaos. The dopey dims are imploding…..Again!

And after the Democratic Convention the polls were reversed!
Everyone knows that the polls after a Convention are statistical noise. These numbers will not hold up they seldom do.
So have a few days fun then back to reality. It is anyones election at this point.

Well said all. Also, we keep hearing about how Hillary is going to come out swinging against Palin in some misogynist fantasy ‘cat fight’. I so hope she stays above it all. She owes Obama and the DNC nothing. They viciously belittle her then want her to degrade herself for their sake. I don’t think so.

I am doing a combination of both Laurie. I honestly do think that McCain would be a better president than Obama. In 2004 I did not vote for Kerry or Bush. I vote for people I respect. I do think that Mccain will bring Maverick back and there is a surprise element with him.
McCain also offers me a ticket with diverse gender and as far as issues, well I have ISSUES with Obama and would not want him to be my president. He stinks as my senator and I will pass.

country first
is the other bridge that cost twice as much as the bridge to nowhere from earmarks still being worked on
you know the OTHER bridge that Palin also didn’t say no thanks on…
(the firs tone she just said “well if you guys aren’t going to give us enough money to build it…then I guess we won’t be able to build it…but we’llkeep the money”)
get rid of these lying scummy tactics of the last 8 years that Palin fits perfectly into.

Kick Biden out. The Dems
may lose this election
without Hillary as Veep.

“NEWS FLASH!! – The ones on here claiming to be Hillary supporters are fakes and not worth paying an attention to.”
News flash. Actually polls PROVE that many former Hillary supporters now support McCain/Palin. Sorry about your luck.

Miranda, Arlenne Huffington was the most vicious Hillary left wing nutcase that only Daily Kos and moveon could match in savagely ripping Hillary on a daily basis.

These people are going to vote for McCain just because he puts a woman on the ticket? Wow! I have 2 daughters and I am a big supporter of Hillary and I understand about being upset, but dont let that displeasure lead to making a poor choice. If you people cared anything about what Hillary cares about then you are doing yourself and this country a great disservice by not voting for Obama/Biden. This is absolutely Amazing. Not hard to tell why this country is in such a mess. McCain and the republicans know Americans are this careless with their vote and thats why Palin is on the ticket. They are laughing in the seats right now about how they pulled another one over on America. Their TV ads were proof enough that they think most Americans vote for stupid reason. Now this. Unfortunatley Hillary is very polarizing and Biden comes in with very much the same qualifications and not the same polarizing effects. I am embarrased for American voters. For the sake of my daughters please vote the issues.

Let’s revisit The Bridge to Nowhere, using the Washington Post US Congress Votes Database.
Though Gov. Palin originally supported the earmark spending on the Ketchikan bridge (“to nowhere), she eventually killed the project, chosing to spend Federal money on other infrasturcture programs.
However, Sen. Biden and Sen. Obama voted for funding the Bridge, even when given a second chance by Sen. Tom Coburn, who proposed shifting earmark funds to Katrina relief.
Sen. McCain did not vote on the Coburn Amendment, though he is on record as opposing the Ketchikan bridge earmark.

A lot of women understand that the end all and be all of this election isn’t the pro-life issue.
But many of us do believe in personal integrity.

Democrats are in big trouble. I hope the women who are thinking of voting for Mccain/Palin will reconsider and vote for Nader/Gonzalez.

dl, Operation Chaos was not affiliated with or had anything to do with Sen. McCain. That was Rush Limbaugh’s operation. It was designed to encourage Republican voters–both male and female–to cross over and vote (where legal to do so) in the Democratic primaries for Sen. Clinton in order to prolong the primary season.

I am a male supporter of Hillary.
I will vote McCain.
I too can not fathom the attacks she took and Pelosi running off at the mouth “this dream ticket will never happen”…….now Pelosi can drill her own head for oil.

“But many of us do believe in personal integrity.”
So how has Palin demonstrated personal integrity?
Was it when she abused the power of her office both as mayor and governor?
Was it when she left Wasilla over $20M in debt?
Was it when she claimed she was against the bridge to nowhere but fails to mention her full throated support for it?
Was it when she screamed about her family’s privacy being invaded only to use them as campaign props?

I like the “threat” of just wondering. It’s funny how Obama and his supporters didn’t need Hillary Clinton’s supporters – the nasty, hateful comments, the insults, the “you won’t support Obama because you’re pouting/angry/vindictive” (take your pick). Now there’s this “advice” from just wondering telling us what Obama will “give” Hillary if he wins.
Come on – you really think we’re ignorant. Obama won’t give Hillary squat. He didn’t have the good sense or enough decency to look at the fact that 18 million voters (or perhaps that was precisely the problem) voted for her and at least consider her as a potential VP. He’s scared of her; he’s scared of Palin. Truthfully, these past few days has made clear his relationship with Michelle and why she gets away with her racist and hate-filled comments. You say we need you? I say you should take a good, long, hard look at how you and your candidate have acted during this election. You should be ashamed of yourself. YOU, your candidate and the DNC gave this election to John McCain.

I would love to see a woman in the White House or Blair House. But I’m not going to base my decision on which ticket to support based on the sex of the candidates. I am more interested in the candidates’ stand on the issues and their characters. I can’t think of any important issues where I agree with Gov. Palin. Why then should I vote for her? Simply because she has a uterus? I am disappointed to see so many women, particularly Democrats, apparently supporting the GOP for that reason.

Obama clearly doesn’t respect women. That’s why he keeps his wife locked up and out of sight.

Here in Europe 99% of women think of Sarah Palin as a woman whose world view is not even ready for the 20th century, while the last time I checked we entered the 21st century some years ago.
Americans, if you REALLY want to become the Old Fashioned Joke of the western world, DO support Miss Moose and that old grumpy miser who is breathing heavily at her side!
LOL!

Mr Obama
Obama we are both from Illinois. I did not vote for you.
Obama we are both IVY league,graduate degree African Americans who were raised by single moms I did not vote for you.
I did not need to try Cocaine for my journey of discovery. Why did you?
I do not hang out with slum lords in my city. Why do you?
I do not accuse those who are conservatives as racist why do you?
I did not sit in a racist church for 20 years why did you?
I worked hours to help the Maytag workers. WHERE WERE YOU? You said you helped but I did not see you.
I did not have bombers and Chicago cronies as my mentors Why do you?
I would proudly wear an American flag. Why won’t you?
I would not have stabbed Alice Palmer in the back. Why did you?
I would not allow Hillary to be thrown under the bus and mistreated that way by the DNC. Why did you?
I don’t identify with YOU.

Real Women and Real Men, want Hillary!

“However, Sen. Biden and Sen. Obama voted for funding the Bridge, even when given a second chance by Sen. Tom Coburn, who proposed shifting earmark funds to Katrina relief.”
Biden and Obama voted for the budget. They voted against an amendment by Coburn that would have serious changes for Amtrak.
Its called a poison pill bill and it was rejected 82-11 by Democrats and Republicans.
But Republicans must lie. Its their nature.
“Sen. McCain did not vote on the Coburn Amendment, though he is on record as opposing the Ketchikan bridge earmark.”
McCain didn’t vote on alot of things last year. He was too busy campaigning to do his job missing nearly 64% of the votes in the current session of Congress.

???
“Obama clearly doesn’t respect women. That’s why he keeps his wife locked up and out of sight.”
???
I just had her on my show! ELLEN!
That woman is great!
Sarah Palin is a mouse!

Mary Ann, Gov. Palin opposes “explicit” sex education and the distribution of contraceptives in schools.

dl
“Obama clearly doesn’t respect women. That’s why he keeps his wife locked up and out of sight.”
Actually Michelle Obama is on the campaign trail BY HER SELF, speaking and taking questions from regular people
dl
”
Obama:
Illegitimate child.
Illegitimate presidential material.
and maybe
Illegitimate citizen.
You spelled Palen wrong
Illegitimate child.-
daughter having one, trying to take to washington
Illegitimate vp presidential material.-
cannot speak to to america unscripted
Illegitimate citizen.-
Family tried to cecede from union

Ryan C
McCain didn’t vote on a lot of things last year? You really want to go there? Btw, where was Obama last year? How many meeting did Obama call on the Afghanistan thing? You know his committee?

“Obama is down in the polls.”
He was down in the polls 2 months before Iowa too.
And then what happened?
Oh yeah, he beat Hillary pretty badly and caused her to use up resources she was counting on for Super Tuesday.
Obama’s voters confound most polls because those polls are based on likely voters. Likely voters are predicted mostly on past voting.
Obama has brought millions of new voters to the ballot box.
That’s why Mark Penn (the scumbag that Hillary for some reason relied on) was caught completely off guard when Obama thumped her in IA and SC then fought her even on Super Tuesday.

I don’t know what women want, but I know what they don’t want – the ever-promising and over-hyping Obama. He whispers to them yes, no and maybe all at the same time.

The race baiting Obamabots that have attached themselves like parasites to the DNC will cause defeat for the party in December. Like the Movie Aliens, Obama is the host mother to the Kool aid and acid spewing facehuggers. Because I voted for Hillary I suppos the BOTS got a hold to my name and still they still call me. I have told them to stop. Now I just answer the phone and say “sure can you give me a minute i need to get a writing device” I go an put on some classical music and just sit the phone down while I go about my business. Once they waited as long as 20 minutes or more and the stupid Obamabot was still on hold waiting for me.

just wondering:
You refer to Palin as the “wacky woman.”
Did it ever occur to you that to some of us Obama is just as “wacky?”

I’m a recovering Democrat, part of my recovery is to leave the backstabbing party of idiots and go solo (Independent). I don’t want a republican in the WH, but it sure looks like Obama screwed himself. Now, how are his management skills? can he still brag about himself? what an idiot!

This will be my third time voting in a presidential election. I voted for a Republican the first time and Democrat the second. I’m voting Republican this time because the Democrats have the same old tired message. Tax the rich, fund abortion and other questionable entitlement programs, and the list goes on. I’m unemployed but I have enough faith in the future that I don’t want a free ride. I think Biden is a decent man but McCain/Palin seem to be the more honorable team.

Blah, blah, blah. No McSame Pain.
Pollsters aren’t polling young voters with cell phones, they’re only polling older people with land lines. Obama has a huge advantage among young voters.
A real poll of all eligible voters would show Obama/Biden WAY ahead.

“Now there’s this “advice” from just wondering telling us what Obama will “give” Hillary if he wins.
Come on – you really think we’re ignorant.”

I am assuming that was a rhetorical question?

Vicki
I’m young, 21 yo…I’m tired of this crap and so are alot of my friends! Young people aren’t as reliable as you think! We’d rather be doing something or someone else! lol

Oh my friend just called me from the McCain fundraiser, she says there are so many woman there just on fire about the rights issues.

I’m voting Republican this time because the Democrats have the same old tired message. Tax the rich, fund abortion and other questionable entitlement programs, and the list goes.
no indepemdent
The biggest welfare program we have is continuously bailing out the biggest businesses, banks and corporations at a rate of billions more than programs for the less fortunate
a vote for McCain Palen is a vote to pay more for everything you buy – that’s the diversion

Vicki,
The pollsters are dialing numbers and believe it or not, some of those numbers ARE cell phones. This is a fact.

Vansupport, if BHO had half a brain, he would have picked Hillary as his VP! But his brain is too puffed up with himself – BHO 1st, Party 2nd, Country 3rd!
And what women want is to be respected, recognized as equal, and not to be called “sweetie”! A woman’s place is definitely in the House – the White HOUSE!
Sarah 2008 / Hillary 2012!

“Why do you say pollsters don’t use cell phones?”
Because they don’t.
Polling firms use random dialers for published phone numbers. That’s land lines.
Google cell phone and poll, there’s tons of discussion about it.

McCain is bad for women
* Opposes equal pay for equal work for women
* Voted against domestic violence bills
* Voted against child care programs
* Voted against insurance for pregnant women
McCain is more of the same. Vote Obama.

“Anyone who believes the Republicans can fix the mess they created, also believes the iceberg could have saved the Titanic.”
— Hillary Clinton

jozy
Yep. Own two HarleyDavidsons, a great American product made in America by Americans. Do we drink koolaid? Hahahaha. Course we do. Everyone knows that!

No doubt Obama knows that the “Trash Palin” movement is ALSO killing him and has also, no doubt, put out the word to cool it. Problem is, the entertainment freaks will NOT stop because “They THINK” that that is what the public wants. IDIOTS!!

But the Trash “Hillary” movement worked for Obama and his minions got rid of her.They figure they can do the same with Palin.

Funny how right wingers who swear they hate Obama are so eager to give him advice on how his attacks are hurting him.
There’s a word for that.

Uh, no the media should not leave her alone, what kind of moron would actually suggest that?
She’s an unknown with less than two months to election day. She will be held feet to fire and there will be more dirt unearthed about her and the GOP will scream and cry “sexism” but it’s actually they who are the sexists who think that she should ‘just be left alone’. That really tells you everything you need to know about conservatives; they truly put their elected officials on high pedestals and they get really upset if anyone dares has the temerity to ask them a question. I remember all the Bush worship for years and it’s sickening to see right wingers equate Bush=Amercia, therefore attacking Bush is akin to attacking America.
I still want to know why did Palin go to 6 schools in five years for a bachelor’s degree?

This too will pass when everyone goes home, when TV effect wears off, truth settles, when you don’t have enough money to buy your lipstick & buy gas for your car ! Obama Blowout !

Manitu.
Yeah, all kinds of people calling in on talk shows, now voting Rep ticket because of being disgusted with the trashing of Palin and ESPECIALLY HER FAMILY.

There are more women voters than men. McCain’s cow to the far right Republican base energized their lethargic base. They are now speaking up. To infer it’s just a “woman” for “womans” sake is an insult and this article could use a whole lot more depth.

nordstrum
PROFOUND!!

Did Sarah Palin wrongfully push to have her ex-brother-in law fired? Was she really against the “Bridge to Nowhere?” Did she really sell Alaska’s plane on eBay, or just list it on eBay? Did she actually have any substantial duties commanding the Alaska National Guard?
The correct answer to all these questions is: who cares? Which isn’t to say these aren’t valid questions, or that Palin and the McCain camp aren’t playing it fast, loose, and coy with each of them. The point is that Palin, and the circus she’s brought to town, are simply a bountiful collection of small lies deliberately designed to distract the country from one big truth: the havoc that George Bush and the Republican Party have wrought, and that John McCain is committed to continuing.

Graycee,
“HEY ABC….ALL BARACK CHANNEL, why is it you publish Palin gaffe regarding Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, yet you have not said a damn thing about Obama, slipping and telling George Stephanolpolus he was MUSLIM”
Er, let’s see how I can put this politely. Because Obama’s religion is not important although he is definitely a Christian. BUT, the Sarah who parroted McCain’s ignorance really showed how incompetent they both she and her running mate are by not knowing the difference between the two companies that back trillions of dollars of mortgages. I thought I would faint when McCain referred to both of these companies as agencies. How are these two incompetents supposed to strategize an economic turn-around when they don’t even know the basics?!
At least Obama understands the economy. That puts him in a better position to fix this broken mess, yes?
Obama 08!

Dream on all of your Obama supporters! We are fighting as hard as we can to defeat Obama! So, good luck with all of that stuff! And, this is just the beginning of the battle! I will dance in the streets when Obama loses the election in November! Good riddance Obama! Go home to your fellow thugs in Chicago! We don’t want you! Why don’t you even leave the country? That would be even better! And, we are mobilized and every time that Obama or any of his cronies try to run for President we will all come out in force and remind everyone of how he treated Hillary Clinton and the female gender in this election. He will never get rid of us!!

A new poll shows a dramatic shift in white female voters moving toward McCain.
…and don’t forget one black woman.

I think there is a tendency for everyone (not just white women) to vote for whichever candidate they most identify with… to vote for a candidate who looks like them and has been through some of the same life experiences. Also, people appreciate leaders with beauty, health, and exuberance which Palin surely has but that McCain sorely lacked. So beyond just being an accomplished woman and a mother, Palin brings a sense of youthful vitality to McCain’s candidacy. Plus she’s got sort of a plucky underdog quality that probably magnifies her appeal.

i guess mccain is playing the woman card—-he sure has a history of using women –his attitude is give the dumb bxxxxxx a woman—-and most have come to that conclusion—you need to know the man better.

if you want a woman then bring on a margaret thatcher kind of woman –not the ditsy twit from dogpatch.

“What Do Women Want? A Woman on the Ticket!”
OH?
You know little or nothing about women!
Healthy women WANT WHAT IS GOOD FOR THEIR FAMILY!
‘Woman on the ticket’ that does not support ‘equal pay for equal work’ IS NOT good for WOMEN’S FAMILY, nor would McCaint-Pollen be good for women!

You are exactly right. We want a woman on the ticket!

“they want to be put on the ticket!”
You are only half right. They want their voice in the White House. They had enough of those people who pretend they know anything that concerns women.
The time has come. History will be made by all the women in the America.

geevill, you have no idea what went on between Obama and Hillary so to assume makes you look like an…..well I think you know.

Passing on Hillary was a strategic mistake and one only Obama, Dean, Kennedy and Kerry can assume responsibility for. Now they need Hillary to dig them out of the hole. She will probably do it for the party and for policy sake. I don’t envy her that job.

Obama’s personal attacks on Palin will backfire. He is going to only leave himself open to having his record in IL examined.
So Jake when are ya’ll going to give us that news. You could start your research in the Chicago Sun Times.

Manitu writes, “Notice how fast Obama shut down the “EXPERIENCE ADS AGAINST PALIN?” Obama has NO executive experience WHATSOEVER. A LITTLE EMBARASSING?”
==============================
What’s embarrassing is how at this late date you’re unaware of the fact that Obama was a member of the Illinois State Senate from 1997 through 2004 before becoming a U.S. Senator. Your GED just fell off the wall. (lol)

The only woman I know who is happy about Palin is my mother who has always voted Repub and always will. She finally feels validated by her own party so this softened her hatred of McCain.
Obama/Biden ’08!

Let us hope and pray that the media does NOT “leave Sarah and her family alone” because American voters MUST KNOW WHO THIS WOMAN IS and WHAT SHE STANDS FOR and WHAT HER RECORD IS and WHAT ARE ALL THOSE POTENTIAL SKELETONS IN HER CLOSET, and we need to know all this SOON, because November is not far off!

Sarah Palin will fight the moose, but she’s afraid of public scrutiny. Go figure. No interview(s), no job!
Obama has withstood a barage of mud slung at him. He’s wise for his years, has good judgement, is principled and has the temperament to serve our country. People power before the Republican powerhouse.
Obama 08!

Irony…
Dems lost to Bush in 2000
Dems lost to Bush in 2004
Dems lose to Bush in 2008 (attempting to turn McCain into Bush)
Excuses by Dems….
2000 it was hanging chads in Florida
2004 it was voting machines in Ohio
2008 it will be rascism in the USA.
Get the crying towel ready.

AllWeWantIsTheTruth: You don’t need to know all Palin’s business. Do you tall all your business. She is the candidate and that’s all you need to know. She has a husband and five children and is a governor. Obama should have cleaned out his house years ago and his associates like Rezko and Ayers. Plus he should have left that racist church like Oprah did.

Obama only sat down and had coffee with world leader’s nothing else. He doesn’t know foreign policy and furthermore he doesn’t know that much about politics. For graduating from Harvard he came out knowing nothing but crooks. He missed the senate 130 times said he was against the war but wasn’t in the senate when the voting began. He chose the wrong candidate for VP and now he is going downhill. He is not a christian and never will be. He was a racist for years that’s why he attended that church. If elected we will need god’s help.

I’m a Russian exile living in Boston, and I’m grateful to everything that is America.
I was not born here but I love these United States from the bottom of heart. For my job I have traveled extensively through some 25 states.
In my view and experience the current Republican administration has severely offended not only the great American Constitution, but also the heart and soul of what I see as ‘America’ and ‘Americans’. To that extent that I will not vote Republican for many years to come, and maybe never again.
I was deeply shocked, I admit, when a majority of Americans reelected George W. Bush for President.
Now I am deeply shocked again, I’m sorry to say, about Americans being fired up by ‘hockey mom’ Sarah Palin.
How is this possible?
The ONLY thing Palin did so far for the Republican ticket is reading aloud a test that was fully written by one of George W. Bush’s speech writers.
Is the America I came know and love so much no more? That would be, in my view, one of the saddest political developments in modern history.
The Russia of the devil and mafioso Putin would love to see a continuation of the out of touch Republican foreign policies that focus on the wrong countries, that only create new American enemies, and that in the meantime let Russia crawl into Georgia as China will do with Taiwan, Chavez with Colombia etc.
I have no doubt it: a continuation of the Bush-Cheney policies, a McCain-Palin administration would not only a disaster for the American economy and the equilibrium of this great society: it would be a disaster for peace, justice and democracy in the world.
Dear Americans, I love you all, but please think twice before supporting another four years of GOP power, the GOP that brought this country a debt of trillions of dollars, a collapsing economy, more than 4000 unnecessary deaths of our young brave people in Iraq, torture, and a very and very troublesome low standing and popularity in the world.
America, please SHINE again, and serve as an example to ordinary Russians and other people who seek democracy and justice in an often cruel and dangerous world.

How can Palin be for Pro Life yet be a life long member of the National Rifle Association?
How can Palin preach abstinence and be against sex education and be an advocate by experience of Teen Pregnancy and Teen Marriage?.
She confuses me and more confusing to me is: how McCain could have picked this woman to run for VP?
How can Palin deny rape victims the right to choose and on top of that charge them $300 to $1200 for a rape kit to conduct an investigation. (this is how is currently handled in Alaska)
that woman scares me.

McCain looked at what Hillary did and said to himself, “It’s time for to put a woman on the ticket.” Obama could have made the same decision; the best woman around was available. Obama, however, took one look at Hillary and ran as fast as he could in the other direction, straight into the arms of Joe Biden.
The Obama/Clinton ticket would have been exciting, and would now be at least 15 points ahead. Instead, Obama looks weak and indecisive, and Biden is a crashing bore.
McCain/Palin in 2008
Palin versus Clinton in 2012

We want equal representation in the office. Regardless of politics, a woman will understand women’s issue much better than anyone.
So go Sarah go
I have even put a blog together dedicated to Sarah

Not !
The Status Quo needs to be challenged. A Status Quo of another gender is still the Status Quo…

Stop being typical women, do not be fooled, please put emotions aside and like thinkers, think…
Aren’t McCain and his buds the ones afraid of higher taxes? Who do you think is going to get this increase, you? How many Americans make over $250,000 a year? There are not that many left around, since poverty is increasing everyday. It is them; the billionaires who do not think our economy is in trouble, who do not pump gas every week, who do not have to pay more for gas, milk or groceries. Those who can not even keep track of their assets, who ignorantly and who randomly picked a stranger for himself to begin with and to the world, outside of Alaska as a running mate, a mate who has no moral, experience or minimum requirements to lead one of the top jobs in America. Someone who will not be able to handle the pressure and decision making with such large family and its very peculiar challenges, someone who like in the last 8 years of our history will just confirm the embarrassment of our country in the eyes of the world, someone who can not write a speech for a nation, but a high school essay. Is that so appealing to you or what is going to get us out of this mess? I thought we all deserve better than that at least for me, Harvard and direct work community and congress experience are much more appealing, despite colors, or gender; resume speaks more than dramas. Give me a break! They need to get themselves and their families together first before trying to get this job. We need a plan and execution, ability to perform. Sorry! But memories or dramas from the 60’s will not get us out of this mess.

I guess Rev. Jesse Jackson is right. Obama talks down to Black people, and now he’s talking down to women. My wife is after me to vote for McCain now.

If Obama is so Honest why isn’t he telling about the suit against him in Federal Court? Why did he have to slip in to See Grandma in Hawaii, no kids , awol wife. ?
And most of all he spends all his words comparing every one to Bush, or talking against Mccain/ Palin, Instead of saying what he really plans to do , and refusing to do townhalls , because he can’t have his teleprompter, He doesn’t have an original idea , that is why he must Have his speach writters teleprompter everywhere. Obama even Refused to do a town hall with the families & troops @ FT Hood

I find it funny that Obama claims to be the candidate for change when he is nothing more than the lipstick on the same old socialist-tax-the-rich-increase-entitlements pig the democrats have been pushing since FDR instituted the Marxist Social-ist in-Security Administration.
