and yet childrem are homeless and starving in the US... Promises to change the world dont mean a thing when you spend that kind of money in one month....

Shame on these two for preaching about change and economic woes while spending money hand over fist...

I say we make them pay for the bail outs from the political parties checkbooks and stop all the money wasting....

2.7 million on staff....... thats just freaking ridicules!!!!

And all the right and left say their canidate is going to make us a more stable economy and help the little guy.... Hell reach into your wallet McCain and Obama and hand money from there to them!!!!!

Nippon5, you've got a damn good point.

$94 million on an election campiagn.

That sort of money would buy a truckload of nutricious school lunches.

It's pretty sad that it's pretty much come down to the richest person will win.

I thought Obama pledged to use public funds only, the same as McCain? Did he lie about this too? I mean, every presidential candidate in the past 30 years has used them....

Only 44 days to go, to choose next president.

Maybe we will get lucky and both of these wanna be presidents will drop out and we can get a real choice.. Sad to preach about tax breaks when you spend more then the tax breaks to get elected....

Nippon5- Mr McCain is the only choice. McCain and Palin raises the money to secure victory with ease. Palin is great, she is strong and will be decisive in any military campaign. McCain is an expert at how to kill the bad people. He must attack rogue place like Iran to ensure world safety, or the Jews will cause massacre within Middle East.

The Obama people amybe are rich, but America does not like to vote for a black man, it is the truth, even if he had good ideas.

I wasn't aware this type of thinking still existed since there have been countless studies and articles exposing it as a myth.
