    According to reliable sources, pressure continues to build on Biden to resign after his poor performance yesterday in Michigan. "His heart is simply not in it" an observer observed observantly. "His friendship with McCain may be inhibiting him." Obama is widely expected to offer the VP spot to Hillary Clinton after Biden's resignation.

    Woohooo! Iron horge is coming out swinging today.... Is there any new poll number out that cause such spasm?

    The Reps have never been known
    for having pretty women.

    Yep, the Idiot McCain thought the best strategy to win was to lie, lie, lie, deceive, deceive, and get a former beauty queen to please the lust of Republican men... I hope they don't vote with their lust.

    Several radio and newspaper commentators have begun to sublty and sometimes
    not too sublty warn of race riots should Obama lose. This is a very disturbing development.
    ---------------
    Yeah, this is a very disgusting development because those radio loud mouthes are disgusting. It seems whites only associate riots with blacks; after all, we whites (I am one) rioted our way to American indepeendence, and blacks rioted us because we were summarily lynching them and behading them at our pleasure like bin Laden. Perhaps we are (white neo cons) are the bin Laden of America.....

    If I really have to choose... a neo-con is still way better than an ultra-lib.
    Ultra-libs are communist in disguise....
    ---------------------------
    So in doing so, you choose neo-cons who will not mind bringing America to a 3rd World War to fulfill their fantasies (after all, the people crafting the war in Iraq were neo cons and ultra-libs tried to stop it, insisting on diplomacy); and neo-cons would have stood in the way of women's civil rights.. taken their right to choose from them, destroyed and banned the pill, stoned women to death for committing adultery, forbidden scientific advances through stem cels and even likely banned the Internet because, afteall, neo cons stand for no change and prefer traditional ways of life. They fear, like the Iranian neo cons, CHANGE.

    Keep believing it's buyer's remorse and you and the dems will be crying
    the blues for another 12 years. Palin will serve 4 as McCain's VP, and 8 as the first
    female president. *Maybe* by then, Barack Hussein Obama will have enough experience
    ********
    Sorry idiot, you are not the prophet making prophetic predictions. That only shows how self-righteous and judgmental dork you are. You cannot tell the ters who will win, but som voters will tell you who will win based on the actions and statements of the candidates. Palin and McCain are both 21st century politicians of lies and deceptions, no question about that. The Dems did lie, but I wuld argue that more than 75% of the lies are from your long tongued Palin and McCain (find any article in the NYT, Bloomberg, Washington Post and you will know why). And why would Dems not be 100% clean of lies when the only strategy to win the election on the McLiar's saide is lying?

      Sorry liberal loser, Barack Hussein Obama is WAY too liberal to get elected. The American people will reject him and his liberalism, just as we did with algore, kerry and mcgovern.
      Better get your cryin' towel ready!

    McCain's pick of neo-conservative Palin means McCain is 100% Pres. Bush.
    ------------
    Not only is he Bush in disguise, but he is the exact DNA carbon copy of Bush. The animal killing, lipstick wearing pig (Palin) says she respects the sanctity of life, but did she only include human life? If not, then she is only an intoxicated hypocrite ... You cannot butcher aimals, support a culture of animal cruelty by hunting and at the same time be an ardent defender of human life. Same with that Devil-faced man Bush. Both Palin and Bush are very low in academic performance ad intellect. I am not taking liberty to insult them, but I am saying this so based on the mounting evidence.
    Oh, did God tell Sarah Palin to kill all the animals through hunting?

    The Obama campaign, as it continues to flounder and sink in the polls, has descended
    to a new low, even for itself.
    ----------------------
    The Straight Talk Express exploded its tire and has been uncontrollably lying, that the Obama campaign tried to put back its wheels and maintain a positive political atmosphere, but it didn't work. The traight Talk Express lost all wheels and its engine is slowly dying, so out of desperation it went out to try to lie its way back to the station (White House), but it won't work.
    In American politics, voters seem to be mroe receptive to negative campaigning, as negativity rarely backfire. Obama avoided going nasty after McLiar in the past 2 weeks, despite McLiar's never ending lies (debunked by the NYT, Washington Post and hundreds of oter papers as well as www.factcheck.org). But now it is TIME TO HIT THE PINNOCCHIOS HARD IN THE NOSE.

    GO REPUBLICIANS: Backing High School graduate for VP- New low for America, but if Bush Canbe a President, then I agree the hell with America. My Sons will not go to War for McCain, which is his strong suit. McCain and Palin no nothing about Wall Street or the finanicals in general.... What another meltdown in the making... Someone mentioned, that if the current Administration tries harder we will be in a Depression, but if McCain's Finanicial Boy Phil Graham( Called us all cry Babies and stupid) we will there sooner. Voting Obama??? Alaska the only state that gives back $1200 per Citizen, child and adult from oil profits. Please, I'd be sucking pipeline myself?? Go Sarah!! Government cannot be in secret(Cell Phones for employees of Palin Admin) for when Government is done in the dark, obviously something going on that public can't see. This is Republician, resist, revolt, fight on, avoid taxes and anything Federal, boycott, bring the Feds to there knees. Time for a hold bunch of Boston Tea Parties. What happen to the Real Flower Children of the 60's, stopped a unjust War, Impreached a President, Exposed a Corrupt Government, Exposed a Politicial Conventions of Rats. GO America, do the right thing, Write in Todd Palin for President and Family Members for Cabinet Positions, and all Fed Business will know be done in secret(NATIONAL Reason) Long live the Cell Phone.

    In the two weeks since Sarah Palin was announced as Senator McCain's pick
    for VP, her handlers have allowed her to speak to the press 1 time and after serious
    coaching sessions. In that same time frame Senator Biden spoke with reporters 54
    times.
    -----------------
    Yeah, no surprise. Don't they have press in Alaska? Why need coaching if you were in executive office already? Oh, I know why... Palin is highly incopetent, inapt. Remember she hred deputy administrators to handle day-to-day operations of her executive office, as the NYT reported before (if I recall this is the enwspaper that did so).
    This is a college hopping frog that is merey interested in prestige and power, but not to help the ordinary voter.

    The Obama Campaign Sinks to a New Low in Decency

    The Obama campaign, as it continues to flounder and sink in the polls, has descended to a new low, even for itself.

    Recently it has launched a new TV ad in which a mocking narrator alleges that John McCain is so out of touch with the current generation because of his inability to use a computer.

    The narrator does not admit that the reason John McCain doesn???t use a computer is because 5 and a half years of torture as a POW in the Vietnam war cause him to experience severe pain by attempting to do many of the day to day menial tasks which most of the American population take for granted.

    Obviously the Obama campaign does not demonstrate any appreciation and respect for the veteran and current members of the US military!

    The obamabot ship is sinking, and the crew are sure grasping at straws in their pitiful attempt to deceive the voting public. Yes, Obama approved that deceitful ad - it is consistent with his decrepit morally corrupt standards.

    Obviously that empty suit has no heart, courage, sincerity, honour, and respect!

    Do you expect a presidential candidate to be truthful in striving to win the election?
    If so, Obama just doesn???t ???measure up??? in that consideration!

    Obama is an unscrupulous do-anything community agitator who has revealed his true previously hidden self!

    On November 4, you, the legal American voting public, have the opportunity and ability to cast Obama back to that slag heap of Chicago manipulators who permeate the slum areas of that city.

    With America facing historic debt, multiple war fronts, stumbling health care, a weakened dollar, all-time high prison population, skyrocketing Federal spending, mortgage crises, bank foreclosures, etc. etc., this is an ***unusually critical*** election year.

    Let's look at the educational background of your two options:

    Obama:
    Occidental College - Two years.
    Columbia University - B.A. political science with a specialization in international relations.
    H arvard - Juris Doctor (J.D.) Magna *** Laude

    & Biden:
    University of Delaware - B.A. in history and B.A. in political science.
    Syracuse University College of Law - Juris Doctor (J.D.)

    vs.

    McCain:
    United States Naval Academy - Class rank 894 of 899

    & Palin:
    Hawaii Pacific University - 1 semester
    North Idaho College - 2 semesters - general study University of Idaho - 2 semesters - journalism Matanuska-Susitna College - 1 semester University of Idaho - 3 semesters - B.A. in journalism

    Now, which team are you going to "hire" ?

    • Posted By: Zombiehero @ 09/16/2008 9:35:26 AM

      McCain....what Obama supporters don't know is that "rank" from a military academy is in no way a reflection of academic standing....it's a reflection on how many Demerits a cadet receives. All that 894 of 899 mean is that there were 5 people who broke more rules and got more Demerits than McCain.

      If don't believe me Google it...or better yet ask someone who graduated from a Academy.

    Why should there be any tension between the press and the obama campaign. After all, they have done nothing but cover for him, refuse to ask meaningful questions about his record or experience (or lack thereof) and generally kiss his feet. So why is the obama campaign complaining? Unless the press has been forced into a corner to cover such things as rev. wrong, they have literally given him a free ride. Pretty ungrateful if you ask me.

    • Posted By: josemarti @ 09/16/2008 9:45:41 AM

      There is sense within the Obama camp that the press has been too clumsy and disorganized in their attacks on Palin. The issues that they have brought up have either been too silly or too complex. The Obama camp wants the press to link Palin to organized crime. There is precedent for this if you recall the Ferraro debacle.

  • Posted By: Zombiehero @ 09/16/2008 9:27:12 AM

    Today comes word that, with the exception of Chris Dodd, Barack Obama received the most money of any member of Congress in campaign contributions from Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac, a total of $126,000 plus change.

    Now that's "Change" i can believe in!

    Tensions between the press and the Obama campaign boiled over today during a conference call between Obama aides and television executives according to someone present. Mr. Axelrod opened by saying: "You guys (television executives) are handing this election to McCain on silver platter." Mr. Axelrod was challenged to explain by one of the executive and he responded: "Your silly attacks have only built her up. Can't you find something more substantial?" "Like what David?" said the executive. "Can't you link her to organized crime like you did Ferraro?" "It's too cold in Alaska for organized crime, David" snapped the executive." A series of expletives closed the conference call. Things are deteriorating rapdily in the Obama camp.

    Washington insider Mario Moreno reports that the pressure is mounting on Biden to resign after his mediocre performance in Michigan yesterday. Sources close to Biden speak of his reluctance. "He keeps saying that he has promises to keep and many miles to go before he sleeps."

  • Posted By: josemarti @ 09/15/2008 4:45:54 PM

    All eyes on Biden today according to sources within the Obama campaign. If he fails to deliver a body blow to McCain in his speech in Michigan, Biden may be asked to step down later this week. The issue of whether to ask Biden to step down is dividing the Obama campaign. Feelers have gone out to Hillary Clinton to gauge her willingness to join Obama on the ticket. Time is running out because it is only three weeks until the VP debate. The biggest issue of course is how to allow Biden to make a graceful exit. Stay tuned.

      Your post is a lie. That makes you a liar. Liars are dishonorable. You are dishonorable. Like your hero.

      The campaign a person runs says everything about the way they'll govern," Biden said in remarks prepared for delivery Monday in the Detroit suburb of St. Clair Shores. "John McCain has decided to bet the house on the politics perfected by Karl Rove."
