If it is any consolation I hate the press too, the way they are pushing this bailout plan like it is the only answer sickens me, so I know how you feel, but in regards to McCain he is simply a poor candidate who will probably not win which might be best for all concerned. In retrospect it is becoming quite obvious that he did not pick the best running mate.

Stop agreeing with me OK?

He's playing a head game on Obama.

No doubt that works the other way too! In the long run, if we lose and make it through the next four years maybe the world will wake up and the republicans would have paid there dues by then.

I am back to wondering if his team is a head case. They never prepared Palin for the interviews like they are paid to do. They rarely seem to give him good advice (or could it be he don't listen) It needs to change and chane quick. At this point I am not sure if he will fare well tonight although I hope he does. Long story short! If he would have handled these last two weeks better I would have threw him another $100.00 bone. But instead I threw his mail out in the trash. No bisquit this week McCain/Palin! Prove me wrong tonight!


He better win three of the four debates or there might be trouble.

Do I have to watch the debate tonight?

I'll just get mad.

I have not decided as of yet! May be like I have doing with my St.Louis Cardinals, when they begin to choke I just shut the TV off!

Back to our gal, it appears the frost is off the pumpkin, whatever the hell that means.

Palin should step down, conservative commentator says
Posted: 04:27 PM ET

From CNN Ticker Producer Alexander Mooney

Palin was in New York City Thursday.



(CNN) – Prominent conservative columnist Kathleen Parker, an early supporter of Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin, said Friday recent interviews have shown the Alaska governor is "out of her league" and should leave the GOP presidential ticket for the good of the party.
The criticism in Parker's Friday column is the latest in a recent string of negative assessments toward the McCain-Palin candidacy from prominent conservatives.

It was fun while it lasted," Parker writes. "Palin’s recent interviews with Charles Gibson, Sean Hannity, and now Katie Couric have all revealed an attractive, earnest, confident candidate. Who is clearly out of her league."

Frost "on" the pumpkin Joe. That means is Fall in the Northland.

So I guess that "frost is on the pumpkin" means that a long, cold, dark, winter is here, well at least for the McCain campaign. Anyway, Kathleen Parker went on to say about Palin. Ouch!

“If BS were currency, Palin could bail out Wall Street herself," Parker also writes. "If Palin were a man, we’d all be guffawing, just as we do every time Joe Biden tickles the back of his throat with his toes. But because she’s a woman — and the first ever on a Republican presidential ticket — we are reluctant to say what is painfully true."

If she has more "executive" experience than Obama and Biden put together, that suggests that she has more than McCain as well, does it not? Her political "internships" don't impress me one bit. None of them impress me for that matter. Again, this election is not a vote for the best candidate, rather the candidate who's the lesser of all evils.

She does and she does as compared to McCain as well. But then again all that matters is the other side Biden/Obama. Hence gives that ticket more executive knowledge on running a government not to mention a military. The lesser of the two evils may be my most driving factor to vote for McCain. Who knows, in the long run I may not vote but I assure you Obama won't get my vote.

You make a good point. The more I hear Obama talk, the less impressed I am with him. The more I hear McCain talk, the less impressed I am with him. I would, however, feel more comfortable with Biden as POTUS despite his idiotic comments at times. Perhaps I am biased because I'm from Wilmington, Delaware and know the family, but Palin scares me as our potential Commander in Chief.

Obama has a good team around him and thats the difference. I would vote McCain or not vote. Its Obamas beliefs and past that scare the he!! out of me. Socialism is simply a bad thing and we are getting a taste of what that is about right now with Freddie & Fanny! I don't want to be forced to be big brother, I think that should be something one does on their own. Let me decide what to do with my money outside reasonable taxes.
