The Media has given Barack Hussian Obama their BLESSINGS, so Senator McCain does not have a chance, regardless if he performed a miracle, the Media is against him and the Republicans.
Sadly, Senator McCain would be the best one term President with good plans, not all are great but what President or Presidents were perfect, tell me one please.

I am cosistantly amazed at the attitudes of those who blame Pres. Bush for every thing he started katrina, pushed rita into a back up and surely caused ike to reinforce the meaning of control. The new administration will be hampered by the failure of thinking americans who let greed get the best of them at all levels. The trash that these candidates put out is a good example of what they think americans want to hear. Georgie is the problem and when he leaves and the crap hits the fan they may say wow we had no idea. Clinton was a cameo sucess because he did not know anything and as a result he road the crest of the wave and now he is a national hero with monicas stains on his hands but thats ok he was only the president at the time. Obama is a rock star and may win but mark my words the excuses will fly all to georgie because he started it all and in reallity we all played a part. But he was the president at the time. The largest hedge fund that supports health insurance and has saved americans billions was run by chaney and the results are obvious.
Iraq was pushing hard to destroy the relationship that the middle east countries had with the usa and hussien wanted to control all like hamenijad does and the war stopped him but the focus has been lost because obama says lets get out and when he succeeds he will rue the day for his thoughts.Neither candidate has a true picture of the situation and we will all suffer for their short sidedness. The real attitude is that obama cant do any worse but do we really want to live with that attitude?Not taking federal funding for the election will prove what we all dont know because obama will owe many and they will collect.
I for one and maybe a large contingent of others would like to say see I told you so but we cannot afford that approach but we may get it .

I am looking forward to the 2nd debate. I want McCain to put Obama in his rightful place. I want McCain to expose to the world that Obama is just an eloquent speaker who has been adequately coached, to pretend that he is the answer to America's problems despite being a mediocre politician with no track record to speak of. I want McCain to prove that he is the Man for the Job; The Man on Top; The Man in Charge. Not an Obama who will readily turn over the reigns to Biden once he becomes President bec he just ain't ready.
Unlike what the Obama camp has been professing, i believed that It is Obama who will be more of the same bec Obama (like Bush), has no experience and no proven record of achievement. If the last 8 years of Bush were devastating for many, the next 4 will be disastrous for all under an Obama presidency. I hope America realizes this. Don't fall for Obama's rhetoric and Charisma, it will bring us doom. Lets go for the tried and tested. Vote McCain this November!!!

Media has never been so biased!!! As it has been for quite sometime now, any news or issue that favor Obama is constantly being played in all their programs. The media has lampooned and lambasted McCain and Palin like no other, while Obama has hardly been criticized. McCain is constantly pressured to defend his stand, while Obama is left free to ignore the pounding questions that need to be answered. This, I believe, is meant to create a mindset that Obama is politically correct(?), that he is winning(?), that his lead over McCain, even if its a measly five pts., is irreversible(?). That's what i call "Brainwashing" the American public.

I feel sorry for the people in the U.S. We can never get any serious answers from our "only" running presidentials. They fuss like children. I wish we could throw them out and pick new candiates...Is it to late for that?

Putting religous beliefs and a tendency to be conservative aside, I have come to the conclusion that the GOP no longer understands the needs and wants of the American people or cares how the peoples of other nations perceive our country. In a short eight years, Bush and company have destroyed our image and good standing in the world, made reckless and sometimes gruesome decisions contrary to popular beliefs and the ethics of humanity, and helped send out economy into a tailspin that will take years to recover. I may not agree with all things perceived by Obama, but see the potential for the resolution of some attractive old ideas, the recognition that our image in the world needs to be renewed, as well as a swing toward some fresh ideas not possible in this country without a realization that diversity is necessary.

Oh please, you really think the media is not biased or meddlesome in this election? From Hillary to Palin and on..they are ask questions that are so weak and transparent. What do you read? Do they ask that of the men? It was condesending, like people in Alaska read?
I am amazed over the stupid questions.

I was really trying to give both sides equal service, as I was undecided. Palin barely survived her debate because Biden was acting as restrained as can be. McCain has come across as tired. I can spew GOP rhetoric as good as anyone else, but I expect more.
It is a shame.
