Mike.

Tell me...with a straight face...that you believe that McCain is suspending his campaign to save the American economy.

I'm waiting.

No matter the outcome the economic bailout will not bode well for McCain, it can't, the deck is already stacked against him because of his current stand and his relationship to Bush.

Whatever Bush says or does tonight, whether right or wrong, McCain will be forced to go against it simply to defend the notion that he is (a)The Maverick and (b) The Candidate of Change to maintain his image.

Obama on the other hand has always shown himself to be bipartisan and willing to work with his opposition if it was in the best interest of the public. I believe that Obama will find it much easier to stand with GWB then McCain will.

Sometimes, it just ain't easy being The Maverick.

The fact is that he IS a Republican. The Republican Party and its members voted for him and nominated his.

Huh? Exactly when, Joe?

When, during any kind of conflict or substanitive debate, has Obama "shown" mimself to be bipartisian or willing to "work" with "his" opposition"?

Put up or shut up.

Wil, it was according to all reports Obama who reached out to McCain yesterday morning and suggested stopping the bull**** & ballyhoo, and return to Washington to do something productive.

Aparently campain workers on both sides were keen to get back to D.C. because they are loosing a fortune by being unavailable to lobby

[quote=jbushart;416156]Gee....do you think it was really just a gimmick? Does this mean that the VPILF was only a political choice...and not really his selection of the most qualified person to succeed him in office?

I am starting to have my doubts about John McCain and his sincerity.[/quote]

Just now starting to have doubts!

You have yet to explore the depths of your insignificance like the rest of us have, please... and I mean this in the best possible way, kiss my ***.

And I always take it in that way, Joe.

And, since anyone can only speak for themselves, I am glad to see your work on your own self assessment.

I understand Jim! I have reservations myself until I look at the other side then I am terrified. I see two choices vote McCain or don't vote. I don't give a fat rats ***** who is running, I would never vote for Obama simply because of his stances and the socialism values he holds. This is where you and I differ and quite frankly your position makes no sense jumping on the Obama train.

McCain wants to reschedule this weeks debate for the veep night debate and postpone the veep one. I wonder why?

Obama now going to Washington.

Another flip flop.

SNAP! I've seen less action from a fish in the bottom of my aluminum boat. Does this moron stand for anything? (that was a rhetorical question)
