It's like he's cut and paste Obama's campaign into his own.

I am really an undecided, but I am really impressed with The Democratics having spoken on an agenda for the people for some time; a change for the people and Obama's consideration in trying to pick the best candidate that has the foreign affairs background to compliment his agenda. I have concerns about national health care. If you talk to Canadians, national health care really is not a great thing; you don't have choices and I'm sure the cost is out of this world. USA is a lot higher population. Tonight is the first really that I heard Mcain say specifics on his agenda; and I heard his courage to speak on the mess in Washington (say things not so pleasant for his party to hear). That WE NEED to work together!! I understand where he is coming from now. But really, with him being 71 yrs old concerns me. If he can only work 1 term, our current mess is REALLY going to take more time than that. Also; Hockey Mom; I respect some of your courage and outspokenness......but also, if we are talking about working together.....It is REALLY UNATTRACTIVE, your witchy attitude and comments about Obama and then to bring up those charges about the Democratic party wronging your family. He supported, keeping family out of the politics. You shouldn't be in politics if you didn't expect questions to arise in this type of situation. I was really suprised in the ex Mayor of NY's negative comments too in his meat speech. I really have no respect for him now, what so ever. Obama has had the Balls to speak up that CHANGE is needed for some time now. We don't have time for that kind of negativity when the stock market is crashing and the rest of the world is in the mess it is in. Your middle class needs time to understand the differences in policies over the next 60 days.....Like tell the truth when you say, keep taxes down.....Really you mean you will not return some of the tax breaks the top 5% of the rich population has had for years & in 2010 consider the return of the death tax (which is a huge loss in taxes for the length of time it has been gone). Our country could be broke tomorrow. Our world is really in a depressing state......so hockey mom, if your going to help with the needed aggression to get things done......this is my searious tip!!!!! WORK TOGETHER. THANK YOU!!!!

TODAYsec.rice met with libya's kadahfi a man we once tried to assainate because of his anti american anti israel,views and his country's backing and sponsorship of hard line terrorist{I GUESS that means we can finally start the funeral procession of the idea that sen obama's willinging to talk to dispicable leader's is a sign of weakness surrender or appeasment} IF IT doesn't matter who comes up with really great plans or idea or who take credit for the great plans or ideas {especially if you have non of your own} as long as americans benefits{ I GUESS that means we can finally lay to rest your and the white wing,mass media[cnn wsj fools news cbs abc eib etc etc] and their neocomic puppeteers[i meant right wing] why won't obama admit that the surge is working crap} THE maverick got shot down and captured because he disobeyed order's {which in a time of war is grounds for a court-martia&or dischargel} and flew where he had no business flying{ I GUESS that means we can now start to say our final farewells to that real american hero and good judgment crap} AND for the 1st time in his life he was truly proud of his country{ if given his upbringing and pedigree most american would not have taken for granted nor turned their backs on a country that had given them so much} and it took being tortured and mistreated by those he had dropped bombs on and whose country was trying to annihilate theirs[makes one wonder what would his opinion of america be now if he had returned to the carrier unscathed]{I GUESSthat means that we can now begin to throw dirt on mrs obama's remarks that for the 1st time in her adult life she was proud of her country{ a country that for years had turned a blindeye to the abuse,discrimination,torture &murder [in most case by those whose job was to protect]of a section of it population based solely on skin color &a yearning to have an unfettered chance at the american dream without fears or prejudices} AND with his choice of a below average gov/ below average runnerup in a beauty pageant/and for political purposes an {in her words just}average hockey mom with no experience in foreign or national policies as his vp pick who if by some fluke of nature he became president would make her next in line to lead one of the most powerful nations on earth and considering how old he is he'll be lucky to make it to his next bday let alone 1 full term{ I GUESS that means we can now place a gravestone upon the final resting place of the country first politics second hallowed remains AND THE WITH THEM presidential chances of one john when iam gone the country will be in great hands macain...I GUESS that means when you get to hell lookup ben-ladin and settle old scores while the rest of us pray to god that we wont be left to LIVE IN HELL ON EARTH|||
