moderateguy2008 - "SuShiSake3; I conducted my own poll at my golf club, out of 24 people only 3 were going to vote for Obama."

So 21 of your friends are anti-American? Interesting....

“McCain has gone, in some of his ads, similarly gone one step too far in sort of attributing to Obama things that are, you know, beyond the 100-percent truth test,” Rove told Fox News Sunday.

Even Karl Rove, the master of deception, is hinting McCain is twisting the truth.

Has Rove had a Damascus moment???

Luckily, Barack got $125 000 from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, well before the meltdown.Only Chris Dodd got more. Props again to Barack!

mccain? only got $21,000. Can't compete.

In response to Obama raising record $66 million in August I am happy at whatever he and those like him do - whatever it is against this racist america/ europe oh yea - which is a latin gay term any way. . . Go Bro - even if he loses he and all that he stands for is outstanding - keep shaking. Only the beginning.

Moderate guy instead of sending Obama the 100 I wanted to I want to send it to you. I hope you use it to buy a book of facts so you can have a decent debate here. This one is for free

He would leve Iraq, and allow it to become a safe haven for terrorists, just like it was when Saddam was in power.

Um there were no terrorist in Iraq before dubya stepped in.

Um there were no terrorist in Iraq before dubya stepped in.

Actually, never were there terrorists in IRaq.

Only freedom fighters.

And they were resisting the anglo-american occupation.

Get with the progressive program.

Um there were no terrorist in Iraq before dubya stepped in." That's because a mad man was controlling the place and there was no need for terrorists, there weren't any infidels there..

But you are right, we should have left it alone and let Saddam stay alive and run HIS country the way it was deserved to run.. thank god he didn't die of natural causes, who knows what we would have seen.

SushiSake: Karl Rove, the master

Maybe your master, but not mine. I reject the tactics of people such as Rove and yourself.

RomeoRamenII - "Well, Hamas does have some pretty deep pockets."

Just how low are the Republicans willing to go in this campaign?

sushisake,

appointing palin as vp candidate says it all in terms of how low they will go. They oil companies and the sleasy christian rightwing losers want to have a second bush era via palin. Mccain is the trojan horse and palin is the real deal. mccain will play bush to palins cheney. Mccain will either die in office or be a one termer if he wins. But he wont. The repubs, like so many of their kind, prematurely peaked and will go downhill now toward November.
SushiSake3 at 10:07 PM JST - 15th September

Zurcronium - totally agreed.

The Republicans have peaked too early, Palin was the ONLY realistic choice for McCain to choose as a veep, and despite what McCain has said to the contrary, his campaign team's shoddy vetting of Sarah Palin's background makes the Bush Administration's claims about Saddam possessing WMD seem 150% credible.

Sarah Palin's past, present and claims for the future are riddled with mistruths, inaccuracies and outright lies and the press has already begun exposing them.

Me? I'm looking forward to picking them apart as this campaign goes forward.

Obama's fundraising is also looking increasingly promising for his bid.

Despite McCain's slight surge ahead in the polls (nothing more than a margin of error, I might add) appears to have boosted Obama's appeal among supporters.

Joe Biden has only been let loose once at the DNC, yet I firmly believe his day is coming when Obama unleashes him against Sarah Palin, who will crumble in the face of his onslaught.

Let's face it - she has zero foreign policy experience, no national security experience to speak of, she's got 5 kids - not exactly helpful when you are in the role of VP, a husband who has just been subpoenead, a boss who has admitted he has little idea about the number 1 issue facing Americans - the economy - and um...underinspiring skill of being able to read fiery speeches (via teleprompter) written for her by other people.

Many of your are correct - Obama will become our next prez. Black Americans will vote for him in droves; I've seen ten year olds wearing Obama shirts and I'm sure they have no earthly idea who he is. He'll raise taxes and proceed to make a mess of things like your other great liberal leaders of 'change' - that idiot Jimmy Carter who came from nowhere and was touted as the 'great change needed in Washington' (what, and moron farmer who ruined the country during his term?); or maybe JFK who other than being young and a now questionable 'war hero' brought us such marvelous things as the Bay of Pigs & the Cuban Missle Crisis. At least his girlfriend was hot.

While I respect his military service, McCain's an old fool full of old ideas and none of the innovative thinking that we need. In short, we're going to be stuck with the same old crap; meaningless leadership that gets nothing done. There are no firebrands in this election and no great thinkers. In my opinion the last president we had who actually got anything done was Roosevelt.

Obama, give the money to the needy and to charities. You cannot catch up　with McCain now.

Do us all a favor, and give up the election now. People will look at you in a better light.

The dream team of McCain and Palin are on target to possibly the biggest landslide victory in US history.
