The more bama denies something, you can bet it's probably true & bama just doesn't want you to know about it! bama is just ticked off cause McCain has beat him to the punch. Where is the proof that bama is really a natural born US citizen? bama is hiding it WHY? The only so-called truth bama wants you to believe in is what he says is the truth.....so many proven lies on bama's part no wonder he's scared! People are seeing you for what you really are bama that's why the polls are so close & there's nothing you can do about it! GO MCCAIN! We're behind you 100% Nobama '08 or anyone like him EVER!

By election day, people will realize that John McCain has a good handle on international issues and that his military background is a major asset. This in a Commander-In-Chief election ... and McCain is well qualified. On the other hand, Obama, beacuse of his association with domestic terrorist Bill Ayers, could not get the security clearance necessary to enter the Army as a private. John McCain should to go to the White House. Barack Hussein Obama should be placed on a terror watch list.

Tommy Vietor is going to wait to see how it plays out. If the country thinks it is to rough, then he will use it to show how McCain was unfair. If it plays out well, he will follow suit. That's Obama's decision making process, play the polls.

pastor123 - if the so-called christian conservative base revolts and costs McCain the election then you will have no one to blame but yourselves for the tidal wave of legislation and policies that are diametrically opposed to your own philosophies, and any power you have will be severely diminished for some time to come. Huckabee is a wanker, and has ZERO chance of winning a general election. We need a third party, but the Huckster isn't even CLOSE to being the answer.

Huckabee is a disgrace. He has opened is mouth one too many times. I, for one, would never support him, and I'm a Christian AND a conservative. Yuck! I think y'all Evangelicals had better decide if you want to act like spoiled babies or if you want Supreme Court justices who won't suspend the pledge, etc. Get over the huckster!

This is great news. I can't wait until Obama falls from his pedestal and people see him for the inexperienced political opportunist he is. My friends and I have made a video lampooning his campaign, which we'll be posting to YouTube on the 23rd. But, you can see a quick promo for it at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jVx1ftIuCis I hope you enjoy it.

McCain's only hope is to continue to pedal fear just as Bush did to win the election. I can't believe all the folks who supported Bush not once but twice and are ready to support more of the same policies with McCain. If this is an election about commander in chief alone, some of you seem to be missing a lot of problems out there not the least of which is the example set by Bush's Iraq invasion of a sovereign nation. Now he calls Russia "bullying". Hmmmm? Pot calling the kettle black perhaps. Bush's foreign policy choices have put us in a laughable position with worldwide leaders. Furthermore, we're less safe as a result of his decisions. You do not go into a country and kill thousands of people's mothers, brothers, sons and daughters and hope to make friends with them. We will unfortunately pay for his administrations mistakes for years to come. So with Obama it's true, we get a less-tested candidate. But I'll chose his tough but not bull-headed approach any day over more of the same failed policies. McCain will continue to grasp at negative ways of winning because that's the only way folks who don't do their homework on the candidates will vote for him. He's counting on the people who only watch tv ads to make up their minds instead of actually comparing the policies and people who will surround them if elected.

McCain is saying all the right things NOW, but that is not how he HAS VOTED as Senator. Why would anyone be dumb enough to believe him now that he is the candidate. The only way to get back to the Republican party offering genuine conservative candidates is to vote 3rd party this fall. Let the politically powerful in the party lament what could have been for the next 4 years, had they offered a genuine conservative. Next election they will not let the media and the "independents" determine the Republican candidate. If McCain get elected it will only drive the Republican party to the extremeist left during the next 8 years. We will be forced to vote for the lessor of 2 evils from now on because they know we will tolerate that option. Put a stop to that while we still can. Vote for anyone else. A genuine conservative can correct the mistakes of the next 4 years. Enough 3rd party votes to show that the right candidate could have won will ensure that next election we get the right candidate. We do not need to be stuck with McCain as the lessor of two evils in 2012 again.

[ I can't believe all the folks who supported Bush not once but twice and are ready to support more of the same policies] It is not so much policy but principal we vote. Obama is from the hard Left of the Democratic Party and millions will not vote for him. McCain is a Republican so millions will not vote for him. Both candidates alienate a percentage of their own party--it always happens. With few exceptions these elections are decided by a very slim swing vote. All the fire and fury, all the ads and money are an attempt to swing just a few tens of thousands votes in key states. Believe.

The President whomever he is is an impotent figurehead at best except for one thing. The next President will be responsible for appointing at least two Supreme Court Justices. That alone is enough of a reason not to vote for Obama. We do not need two Communinst on the Supreme Court that make Ginsberg look conservative. And for you third party idiots, voting is anonymous you aren't showing anybody anything. That's how Bubba got elected in the first place.

I love a good fight. A pox on both of these men; neither supports our Constitution. Spend, spend, spend and provide jobs for the Sodomites of TV Land. May Denver 2008 be like Chicago 1968. May Mecca on the Mississippi be the same.

You have to wonder where our country is going. On the right, we have people claiming Obama isn't a US citizen, is a muslim terrorist, etc. and on the left you have people saying McCain is senile and a fear-monger. God forbid anyone actually looks at the content of what they are proposing or how they have voted in the past. No, let's spout out extremist crap. In point of fact, neither of these candidates are extremists. McCain is a centrist Republican and Obama is a leftist who often collaborates and modifies his positions - something he'll be forced to do if President. Regardless of who is elected, the country will not be destroyed. Hell, if Bush couldn't bring down this country, neither of these candidates will because both of them have about four times the intelligence. Now, excuse me, I have to go out and buy the sequel to Swift Boat to learn about how Obama kills and eats small children and then I'll go over to Daily Kos to read about how McCain crippled his first wife so he could have an affair with a wealthy bimbo who could bankroll his political career.

[By: gone2sanibel God forbid anyone actually looks at the content of what they are proposing or how they have voted in the past. No, let's spout out extremist crap.]? Millions of us have looked at both of these mens records and found them wanting. Obama has voted hard left on all issues, most disturbing to me is his voting against saving the life of a 'live birth abortion'. Obama has proposed huge tax increases, reduction in military spending and suspension of all new weapons development. His call for Faith Based Initiatives is at least as bad and Bush 2's Faith Based Initiatives. John McCain authored the McCain-Feingold act which is an absolute assault on the Constitution and Free Speech. He proposed the McCain-Kennedy Amnesty and then lied about its provisions. The Senator has spent so much time reaching across the isle he morphed into a Little Kennedy. Will that do? It that "spout(ing) out extremist crap"?
