McCain's Tricky Calculation

Thank you Jonathan for making sense of it all. A governor less than two years, who is now under investigation by her own state, who compares herself to a bitt bull with lipstick, wow, this is pathetic!!

Everyone, my apologies for the many posts of the same write-up. I was trying to get the whole thing in. The last paragraph to my earlier post follows:
Picking Palin and calling her "change" is the McSame camp attempt to pull wool over our eyes and hope no one notices. To have supported the infamous "bridge to nowhere" and now flip for political expediency and make it seem like you've always opposed it is not being straight. To have secured some $27 million in earmarks for Wasilla and say you are a reformer leaves more to be desired. To have recently addressed the Alaska Independence party with their secessionist quest raises questions about her patriotism. To have submitted proposal for more earmarks this year raises questions about the kind of reformer she is. To have an on-going bi-partisan ethics investigation leaves doubts about fairness in executing official business. To get tutoring from the Bush people - the same people responsible for this nation???s downward spiral - is more of the same and not change. We should tell them "ENOUGH!" So when people say Sarah Palin, you say, Old wine in new wine skin, if even!

Another cheap shoot from the left wing press. We know who he is voting for, what a joke! Report without any bias and maybe someday you can rise to become a decent reporter and until then you should submit your articles to the tabloids!!!

I'm glad there are still some in MSM like Mr. Alter who are willing to stand up and represent the media with true journalism, unfamiliar, of course, to the likes of Sean Hannity et al, with their intentional parochial understanding and representation of issues. Am even gladder there are still a great many Americans out there who can see through the smoke-screen of the Republican innuendos on Senator Obama and the rest of us, as opposed to talking about the bread and butter issues that affect majority of us. But I guess like was said of Senator McCain, "it's not that he doesn't care, he just doesn't know", what with eight homes scattered around several states when many of us are struggling to meet stifling mortgages for one home and put food on the table without losing our sanity.

The American people have been fooled by Senator McCain as a war hero and POW, no mean thing. But it shouldn???t be the default answer for every thing. On the Tonite show he was asked how many homes he owned, he said he did not have a house while a POW for five-plus years, and didn't even have a kitchen table. How deceitful! I imagine if he were asked about job loses and the worsening economy he would say he didn't have a job while in Vietnam, etc. I just wish more people would rise above partisanship and VOTE ISSUES this election. Let's not be dragged back to McCain's Viet-days - that's not forward-looking or how you make progress. Let's move ahead with a forward-looking candidate and let Senator McCain remain stuck in the past and as OUT OF TOUCH as can be. With all the talk by McSame people about READINESS they go for not-ready-for-the-job Palin after the Senator met her ONLY once, just to please the base and women ??? country first my foot! Then inside of 48-hours we learned more of this Lady than probably Alaskans do. What this rushed-pick tells us is that a lot of thinking doesn't go into the senator's decision. Likewise he might rush this country into another wrong war like the Iraq war.

So Sara Palin supporters I have yet to see anyone defend her record of running up deficits in Alaska and her congressional earmarks.

Oh and how about the final nail in the coffin. This woman's husband was part of the Alaska Independence movement. Yet they slam Obama about patriotism and love of country. You want that type of person to be your commander and chief, a person who supported a group that was totally against America?
