Being inspired by the Democrats and their ideas on voting, I have
checked in states I have lived in the past and find I am still registered to vote in FL, TX, CO, WY, AL, and GA. So, always being one to do my civic duty to my utmost, I plan to vote for McCain as much as I can. |

CO isn't really either, but what the hey. Now, FL and GA, your vote could make a difference. |

I find it amazing that it is even possible Georgia is in play, and that a poll indicates that Arizona is within the margin of error. Or NC, ND, MT, and IN. FL seems to be the only "battleground" state still in play. Although, the race does seem to be tightening on a daily basis. |

I find it amazing and disgusting that the Obama campaign has raised nearly (if not over) a billion dollars to run for president. Think about that. A billion dollars. Out-spent McCain by over four to one. Eisboch |

So where's all that money really coming from? If he's elected, I have a feeling that very few Americans are going to like what he has to do to pay back that debt. Someone owns him. |

After all he is one of their biggest advertisers and we know they always want to make the advertisers happy. I noticed the day of the Infomercial Obama got a 7 minute interview with Williams and no real questions, McCain just got a 4 minute segment where an infobabe told us how bad his campaign was going. I am telling ya, the whole thing is disgusting. Eisboch |

This past week, though, I noticed that both CNN and MSNBC devoted a lot of news time in the day segments to McCain and Palin, whose every appearance was dominated mostly by their trashing Obama and bringing up Joe the Non-Licensed Plumber. Not much news in that. Obama didn't buy $5 million dollars worth of time on CNN, coincidence? maybe Whatever point you are trying to make here, well, I don't know what it is. I believe the ad money Obama is spending is also buying a lot of bias. You just gave me an example. I am sure if it was McCain who had all the money they would be throwing him soft balls and lots of free air time. Maybe the GOP will be a little more accepting of restoring the equal time rule now. Personally I don't like candidates sold like beer on TV. It is the TV money that corrupts these guys. You don't need a half a billion dollars for buttons and bumper stickers. Until we get the money incentive out of these races you are just encouraging legal bribery. *The problems is that this is such a cash cow for the networks they will fight it tooth and nail. 90% of the billion spent on this cycle went to a half dozen media companies. Nobody saw ONE thing of value in an ad that they didn't see dozens of times in interviews on the various news shows. The biggest problem is, like the Clintons before him, we really don't know who is buying Obama. They have done everything to allow as many illegal contributions as they can to the campaign. There are literally millions of undocumented dollars coming in, and every means of tracking them has been eliminated by the Obama staff. Of course they know Pelosi and Reid won't allow an investigation, remember William Jefferson, with the $90,000 in his freezer.. But take poor Joe the Plumber? Quite a contrast now, huh? |

Apparently the public doesn't really like that sort of crap much anymore. Add to that the weakness of McCain himself as a candidate, his poor judgment, his doddering and hopefully, on Tuesday, McCain and the GOP will be blown out of the water. Sarah Palin - nyuk, nyuk, nyuk. |

There have been no "whisper campaigns" alleging illicit children, no "Willie Horton" ads, etc. Personally, I think it's been the cleanest campaign in recent memory, from both sides. Still, what happens Tuesday could make up for it. |

How do you get run over by a Japanese destroyer without knowing that the destroyer is bearing down on you hard. The one and only thing the Kennedy clan has done that is good for the USA is by killing themselves off or being killed. Good old Joe Kennedy funded the family through illegal activity. |
