    "Not all Democrats agree with Mr. Frank that such policies are off-limits to criticism. Last week Rep. Artur Davis of Alabama said in a statement: 'Like a lot of my Democratic colleagues I was too slow to appreciate the recklessness of Fannie and Freddie. I defended their efforts to encourage affordable homeownership, when in retrospect, I should have heeded the concerns raised by their regulator in 2004. Frankly, I wish my Democratic colleagues would admit when it comes to Fannie and Freddie, we were wrong.'

    "Mr. Davis is a member of the Congressional Black Caucus."

    'Rank snobbery'

    Camille Paglia, who supports Sen. Barack Obama, has nothing but scorn for the way the media has treated Sarah Palin.

    "The mountain of rubbish poured out about Palin over the past month would rival Everest. What a disgrace for our jabbering army of liberal journalists and commentators, too many of whom behaved like snippy jackasses," Miss Paglia writes at www.salon.com.

    "The bourgeois conventionalism and rank snobbery of these alleged humanitarians stank up the place. As for Palin's brutally edited interviews with Charlie Gibson and that viper, Katie Couric, don't we all know that the best bits ended up on the cutting-room floor? Something has gone seriously wrong with Democratic ideology, which seems to have become a candied set of holier-than-thou bromides attached like tutti-frutti to a quivering green Jell-O mold of adolescent sentimentality."

    Beauty and the Beast unleashed their inner pit bulls and are attacking Obama with their same old tricks- character assassination, lies and distortion. But Joe Six Pack isn't fooled.

    This is a quote from foxnews.com:

    "The analysis also concluded that in the latest period, nearly 100 percent of the McCain's ads were negative, compared to 34 percent of Obama's ads."

    McCain has nothing good to say about himself. How pathetic.

    Prediction.....Obama will average a double-digit lead by Monday. He's already leading by 100 Electoral votes based on RealClearPolitics.

    Any takers? Hahahahaha!

      Hello, KB! Yes, great news..I've been following the polls all week.. Did you watch the debate? Joe Biden was exceptional..best performance ever, informed, to the point, and honest..he answered every question....VP material hands down. The polls have him winning.

      • Posted By: News and Notes @ 10/03/2008 9:47:14 AM

        Both Palin and Biden far exceeded expectations. However, I think Palin's performance may have captured more McCain votes, while Biden did not lose any votes for Obama. I have always genuinely liked and respected Biden, as an outspoken statesman and a compassionate, decent man. As VP however, we know who Obama should have picked

        • Posted By: Pia1981 @ 10/03/2008 10:48:53 AM

          GM, News. I agree but IMO, Sarah's expectation bar was set low by her camp because they knew she could not answer the questions and she proved them right. Sarah was lacking in specifics in the questions she did answer. She's intelligent but not informed nor knowledgeable enough. When asked by Katie Couric about Supreme Court cases..all she could think of was Roe v Wade. Most women in America know that. How can the governer of Alaska not know about the Valdez Alaskan oil spill Supreme Court case?

          • Posted By: jimbo3800 @ 10/03/2008 6:55:01 PM

            Pia, you have become quite the spin-meister. If expectations were set low for Sara Palin, it was because of the non-stop smear campaign waged by her rivals, and no other reason. And it probably backfired, because she hit it out of the park last night.

            An old WWII bomber pilot once said, "the flak is always the heaviest when you are right over the target". This is the perfect metaphor for why the left-wing harbors such a vicious hatred for Sara Palin; they know that she is poised, articulate, and smart...and is a true threat to their evil, and anti-American agenda.

            • Posted By: Pia1981 @ 10/06/2008 8:29:06 PM

              I'm no spin master..your VP candidate is. Lol! I laugh at you because you think SP is articulate and intelligent. She couldn't answer one single question at the debate..she spun, changed the subject, and gave a stump speech instead. She has ruined John McCain's chances.

      • Posted By: willnotvoteobama @ 10/03/2008 7:23:24 AM

        hello pia but you are so wrong joe did good but sarah did grat she wins the debate hands down joe had 10 factual mistakes on his running mates policy and it will show in the polls !

        • Posted By: Pia1981 @ 10/03/2008 10:41:05 AM

          GM wills! How are you?

          I never said Sarah Palin did not do well icomment above..my comment was for Joe Biden. Just like I posted on the live blogging article here on newsweek, I think SP looked beautiful sounded great but she sis not answer the questions.

          • Posted By: Pia1981 @ 10/03/2008 10:53:24 AM

            PS wills- Sarah Palin did good considering she got away with not aswering the questions and no specifics when she did answer, but Joe Biden won the debate hands down. Check all the networks and polls..of course Fox will have her at 80% and Biden at 12% which is laughable.

    The Antichrist!:
    When George Soros failed to obtain the election of his candidate, John Kerry, in 2004, he brooded for a while, even said he might get out of politics altogether, but he just couldn???t stop himself. He has stated publicly that he wishes to burst the ???bubble of American supremacy,??? because he says our preeminence in the world is a detriment to global ???equilibrium.??? So far, he has failed, but he keeps on trying.

    And Mr. Soros has made no secret either of the fact that he sees the shortest way to effect political shake-ups, what he terms ???regime changes,??? is through very difficult economic conditions.

    America has not yet felt the full force of Soros style economic shock treatment. But others have.

    Soros made his first billion in 1992 by shorting the British pound with leveraged billions in financial bets, and became known as the man who broke the Bank of England. He broke it on the backs of hard-working British citizens who immediately saw their homes severely devalued and their life savings cut drastically in comparative worth almost overnight.

    When the Asian Financial Crisis of 1997 threatened to spread globally, George Soros was right in the thick of it. Soros was accused by the Malaysian Prime Minister of causing the collapse with his monetary machinations, and he was branded in Thailand as an ???economic war criminal??? who ???sucks the blood from the people.??? Right in the middle of this crisis, Soros dashed off his book, The Crisis of Global Capitalism, which demanded a ???third way??? toward economic stability.

    Wake up, America, before it is too late!!!!

    The Bush Depression

    In a few weeks we will make a choice that will decide our future.
    I follow an economist named Bob Proctor. He has called the top and bottom of every market crash since the 70s correctly.
    Also, he perfectly predicted the current real estate market meltdown and the picture he paints about what will happen in the next couple years
    is terrifying.He thinks it will be worse then the great depression.
    The banks in the U.S. are going under one after the other. Countrywide the largest morgage bank in the world,Bear Stearns, Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch which are 3 out of the top 5 wall street firms. Also, Fanny and Freddy Mae which hold 50 percent of the home loans in the United States.
    The government took them over because they are essentially bankrupt.If they didn't the entire financially system would virtually shut down, the stock market would crash and we would suffer beyond what any of us have seen before.

    McCain just like Bush " doesn't understand the economy".
    That not just my opinion its his own words. Not only does he not understand how to fix it but he does not understand exactly what is broken.
    It is no surprise that he doesn't. The people that make up these securities use complex mathematical models very few people understand.
    Bush and McCain both can take the credit for this mess since they helped deregulate the laws that were protecting us.

    Bush's economic advisor Phil Graham wrote the deregulation bill that allowed banks to take huge risks with all of our future.
    Now, Phil Graham is the head of McCain's economic policy.He is also McCain's choice for the next secretary of the treasury.
    No one in this country can afford for that to happen. The last time Bush met with his economic advisors was in March. He either didn't care or didn't realize that anything was wrong. Phil Graham had the guts to say that we are in a mental recession after he helped create the worst economy meltdown in our lifetime.
    It will take the best and brightest minds in the world to get us out of this nightmare. As bad as Bush has done, McCain would be
    even more destructive because things are in much worse shape. The next president will not inherit a surplus like Bush did but a tanking economy and a 11,600,000,000,000 (trillion) dollars deficit.Bush created a national debt larger then the first 42 presidents combined
    If you do what you have always done then you will get what you have always got.
    When it comes to policy Bush and McCain are the same 90 percent of the time.
    So why are the polls even close then ?
    The chairman of McCains campaign recently said that people don't vote on issues they vote on a personality composite. Which means he is trying to sell you personality instead of results.
    Let's teach him we are smarter than that .

    31 states are voting now, dont wait
    Elect Obama Biden 2008

    I just love NewsWeak....they attempt to spin a picture of Hussein winning the Hispanic/Latino vote in Fla...then several paragraphs later..."admit", Sen McCain has a ten point lead in the polls. It is larger than that.

    Just more evidence of the death of real journalism in America. It is a shame.

    NOBAMA!!!

    • Posted By: News and Notes @ 10/01/2008 1:10:39 PM

      Why wasn't Obama interested in counting Florida votes during the primary when Hillary beat him by a 3 to 2 margin? Now he is spending money and time on Florida. He may win Florida, but he does not deserve to.

      • Posted By: HolyRoller @ 10/01/2008 1:15:40 PM

        Hussein will not win Fla. As a matter of fact, the real contest has just begun.

        McCain/Palin will carry 35+states,...EASILY.

        Hussein's chickens are coming home to ROAST. Feathers are gonna fly..

                        It is difficult, but vote for the candidate you think will make the best president for the next four years, then pray that the outcome (whether it is your candidate or not) is the right outcome. It wasn't in 2004, but hopefully that won't happen again

      It is way too early to be gloating like that. In fact it is counter productive

      • Posted By: Pia1981 @ 10/02/2008 2:51:47 PM

        It would be counterproductive if LudwigVanBeet were to be disappointed on Nov 4th. Yes, there is chance Obama loses but the bigger chance is that he wins. Funny, although I want Obama to win, I am beggining to feel sorrow for McCain. Is that normal?

        • Posted By: News and Notes @ 10/02/2008 4:03:44 PM

          Pia, its counterproductive anyway, since Obama already has a perceived arrogance problem. Claiming victory and insulting others is very unappealing to undecided voters, and could persuade them towards McCain

          • Posted By: Pia1981 @ 10/03/2008 10:57:29 AM

            News, sorry, I neglected to add to my comment below..I know of no instances where Obama insulted anyone. Please don't bring up anything having to do with Hillary being insulted by O or that finger nonsense because I wil laugh at you even though I like you. O treated H with respect during the primaries and you know it.

            • Posted By: News and Notes @ 10/03/2008 2:34:21 PM

              Truthfully, I'm not saying Obama himself insulted anyone, I was responding to Ludwig, who did insult a gropu of people. I've accepted the results of the primaries, but felt Obama had plenty of surrogates who did his insulting for him. I was miffed, however, when he made the slighted inference of Geraldine Ferraro making a racial gaffe. VP nominee Ferraro was a champion of civil rights causes while Obama was still in diapers

          Of course it is normal. McCain is a good man, and everyone knows this is his last chance. Considering how angry the country is at the republican party, and considering the economy is tanking; one would think McCain would be down by more th an 15% rather than 5-7 %. If he loses, it will not be because he was a terrible candidate (like Bush), it would be because of circumstances beyond his control. He has fought a good fight

          • Posted By: willnotvoteobama @ 10/03/2008 7:26:18 AM

            the only reason that obama is up in the polls is because of the american people being pissed at the bush admid ! soon folks will see that mccain will not be a bush 3rd term and that will be all it takes to beat obama !

            • Posted By: News and Notes @ 10/03/2008 2:31:06 PM

              I think the Obama campaign trying to portray McCain as a 3rd Bush term, while effective in the short term, simply is not true, and that characterization will likely hurt in the long term. McCain is much more moderate and competent than Bush. There are many indicators favoring Obama, but all things considered, McCain will end up doing better than anyone imagined, whether he wins or not

            • Posted By: Pia1981 @ 10/03/2008 10:54:37 AM

    Biden voted in 1999 for deregulation that liberal groups are blaming for part of the financial crisis. The law allowed Wall Street investment banks to create the kind of mortgage-related securities at the core of the problem now.

    Biden Said McCain supports tax breaks for oil companies, and "wants to give them another $4 billion tax cut."

    Biden is repeating a favorite saw of the Obama campaign, and it's misleading. McCain supports a cut in income taxes for all corporations, and doesn't single out any one industry for that benefit.

    During the debate, Biden said, "Oh, on clean coal. My record, just take a look at the record! My record for 25 years has supported clean coal technology.???.... However, during an early campaign stop once he was announced as VP Candidate, Biden said, "No coal plants here in America. If they???re going to build them, over there [China]. Make them clean. We???re not supporting clean coal.???. One of the most upsetting lines last night in the debate was Biden's attempt to say that he didn't know he was voting on a War resolution? I'm sorry but someone who has been in the Senate since Nixon didn't know he was voting on a War resolution when he voted on the Iraq War! Let me ask you people does he think we are stupid? Or is he just stupid? Either way if a seasoned senator doesn't know when he's voting on a war resolution we have bigger problems in Washington then we know! And we certainly do not need a VP like that sitting with an inexperienced president! If you think things are unstable now wait and see what will happen if God Forbid Obama and Biden get to the White House??? Sarah Palin did great last night. She was able to manipulate the debate by bringing the talking points back to the issues that she wanted to talk about to the American people! McCain / Palin will be a breath of fresh air for this country and will make a great president and vice president. The age of Obama will end November 4th

      • Posted By: News and Notes @ 10/03/2008 9:44:18 AM

        It has almost nothing to do with race. It has to do with apprehension about his level of expereince and a perception that he is more style than substance. Couple that with some moderate undecided Hillary supporters, and the fact that as far as republicans go McCain is not nearly as bad as most, that's why Obama is not winning by an overwhelming percentage.

  • Posted By: willnotvoteobama @ 10/02/2008 8:12:59 AM

    Some October surprises that can happen! Obama gets named by resko in his federal deal and is ordered to appear before a federal court to face charges! Or Larry Sinclair videotape emerges with proof that Obama did have a homosexual affair! Or the Michelle Obama whitey tape comes out or a terrorist attack in an u.s. city (god help us) or Iran attacks Israel and makes an announcement that they have a nuclear Wepons!

    It is a no-lose year for democrats. The economy collapse has been a stroke of luck for Obama. Despite this, the presidential race is still competitive. Many latinos come from places and countries of political oppression. They were LIVID during the primaries when Florida democrats were kicked around from January to May. The DNC, party elites, and Obama treated Florida democrats and the January 29th primary as a punch line. Like most loyal democrats, most latinos from oppressed nations have long memories. It's nice Obama is sucking up now, but where was he during the primaries? Obama may win Florida, but he doesn't deserve it.

      News, if Obama wins, it will be because voters feel he does indeed deserve it. In your honest opinion, who deserves to win Fla? Hillary? Is that why you are leaning McCain? Is it revenge? Not starting an argument, just asking.

        I'm undecided but unenthusiastically leaning slightly towards Obama, simply becuase he is not a republican. Obama may get my vote, but he definitely doesn't deserve it.

          Fair enough for you. For me, he does deserve my vote.

        Pia, George Bush won the election in 2004, and he absolutely, positively did not deserve to

    Latinos loved Hillary during the primaries. Had she been the nominee or if she were on the ticket, Florida would have been in the bag for the Democrats.

      News, Obama is ahead a couple of points in Fla already. When was the last time a Dem. pres. candidate won Fla? This may be the year.

      That kind of presumptuousness is a gigantic turn off to undecided voters. .Obama already has an arrogance issue

      You might want to re-check the latest polls Einstien...McCain has pulled even with The Messiah again, as of earlier today....

    McCain will win Florida. Sen. Mel Martinez, Gov. Crist, and a large Cuban population will come through for McCain. As for the Rustbelt, Baracknophobia amongst the white working class folks, and support from the elderly should give McCain an edge in Ohio and Indiana and maybe even Pennsylvania. So, in spite of everything, McCain has an excellent chance of winning. Perhaps the Dems should have gone with HIllary.

      FL and OH are still unpredictable

      Agree 100%, of COURSE the Dems should have gone with Hillary. If the DNC, party elites, and Pelosi didn't push so hard for Obama, they would have. Since clinching the nomination, Obama has done nothing to win over new voters. The high flying speeches in Germany and Mile High Stadium. Refusing Federal campaign funds. Snubbing Hillary. Obama is a gifted orator and politician, and the luckiest man alive. The timing of this economic crisis could not be better for him

      Possible but not probable.
