		<description>McCain is not a conservative, which is why he lost the last presidential campaign.  Romney is the only candidate who can help the flailing U.S. economy.</description>

		<description>Ron Paul seems to be the only canidate making sense. CNN or any other network for that matter does not give him the time of day. I miss the good ol&#039; days when my Dad told me who to vote for, not the corporate media.

Nevermind, Ill just go buy my ipod and sync it to my new Ford while I drink my Coca Cola and talk on my LG phone, exclusively from Verizon Wireless. 

Thank you.</description>

		<description>I totally agree with Linda and Sydney about the comments concerning the media being pro mccain.  The media knows Romney is the only one that will squash Hillary and Obama, so they&#039;re trying to get everyone to vote for Mccain or anyone else but Romney.  Romney is the only candidate wtih a TRUE and SUCCESSFUL resume and even though I am not a mormon it is sad that many many people who know how amazing a person Romney is, they still won&#039;t vote simply because of what they&#039;ve &quot;heard&quot; about mormons or because of what their pastor or friend influences them to do.</description>

		<description>I agree with Frank from Fort Lauderdale.  He said that Romney said that pharmaceutical companies aren&#039;t the enemies.  While I understand where he&#039;s coming from, it&#039;s simply not true.  The pharmaceutical companies have done some shady treatments, etc. in the past.  Romney has also switched his position on immigration and also the social issues (abortion and gay marriage).  Where does he really stand?

It seems like Romney will say whatever he wants to get elected.  He said he was &quot;decidedly pro life&quot; at the SC Republican debates.  He was acutally pro-choice at the time, but did he mean he decided it ahead of time?

I believe that Ron Paul is actually the best for the economy.  He is fiscally conservative, and would do fantastic in our economy.  He definitely is going to reduce spending, and stop being so aggressive about war.  He is the true national security person.

At least most of the people have been honest about their views.  I have just seen a lot of the hate ads started by Romney and then continued.  Most of them have seemed honest throughout the race.

Also, I have another question...why don&#039;t Ron Paul (R), Dennis Kucinich (D), Gravel (D) and Duncan Hunter (R) get no media coverage generally?</description>

		<description>Why won&#039;t the media provide a fair playing field. McCain is gettting twice the coverage as the other republican candidates and they keep promoting this big&quot;come back kid&quot; stuff. I once supported the man but I am very put off by his terse sarcasim. It isn&#039;t just a difference of beliefs the man is very dark. I really was swayed over to Mitt during the debates.When attacked (it seemed by all the candidates  at one point)he didn&#039;t seem to let it get personal. Yes he seemed frustrated at times but McCain seemed very mean spirited. I don&#039;t think he has the personality to be the spokes person for America. I&#039;m looking for a peace maker.
I wouldn&#039;t mind seeing him appointed to secretary of defence, that is where he is best suited.He served us well in Viet nam but he just isn&#039;t the right fit for the office of President.</description>

		<description>Way to go Marti of San Diego,

Truly Mitt is the one for president.  The reason the media has been promoting Mccain and Huck is because they knew that both Mc and Huck don&#039;t stand a chance to beat Hill and obama.  They are trying so hard to get Mitt out of the game, because they knew Mitt is the only one with a solid chance to beat the Dems. By getting rid of Mitt, for sure the Dem will take the whitehouse.  

Michigan, go with Romney, he is the most presidential, has the most executive experienced, with the best leaderskill,definitely the smartest one in the group (doctorate degree from Harvard, honored graduate of his MBA class also from Harvard).  Can&#039;t say the same about Mccain, Mccain ranked the bottom of his naval class, no wonder why Mccain can&#039;t get anything done. 

Michigan, Go for Romney.</description>

		<description>Mccain was in Washington for too long, and what has he done for this country. &quot; NOTHING,&quot;  Time to send him home.  I think this country paid its&#039; due enough for Mccain as a POW.  27 years of doing nothing is way too long.</description>

		<description>Way to go Marti from San Diego,

Truly Romney is the one for president.  The reason the liberal media keep promoting Mccain and Huck is because they both don&#039;t stand a chance to beat Hillary or Obama not even John Edward, they try to get Romney out of the way, because the liberal media know that Romney is the only one that can beat the Dems.  The liberal media is trying to put their own candidate in the whitehouse.  SHAME SHAME, SHAME for the media, the media is using thier power to influence the election, we must not let them do it.  

Michigan, go for Romney, he is the only one with executive experience, knows how to create jobs, and a true vision for this country.  

Go, Mitt.</description>

		<description>Michigan, please, vote the issues not who is most likeable. This isn&#039;t a race for senior class president. It&#039;s also not a time to payback McCain for his service to his country. We tried that once already with Bob Dole and it got us Bill Clinton. Remember?  McCain has served his country. Yes, but when the man can only point to one or two accomplishments in 24 years, 24 years!!!, that&#039;s far too little.  Mitt accomplished far more in 4 years as governor of MA that McCain has ever done in 24 years.  

&lt;B&gt;Let&#039;s elect a *proven* leader with a real resume of results. VOTE ROMNEY&lt;/B&gt;


The Real McCain Record
Obstacles in the way of conservative support.

By Mark R. Levin
There’s a reason some of John McCain&#039;s conservative supporters avoid discussing his record. They want to talk about his personal story, his position on the surge, his supposed  electability. But whenever the rest of his career comes up, the knee-jerk reply is to characterize the inquiries as attacks.

The McCain domestic record is a disaster. To say he fought spending, most particularly earmarks, is to nibble around the edges and miss the heart of the matter. For starters, consider:

McCain-Feingold — the most brazen frontal assault on political speech since Buckley v. Valeo. 

McCain-Kennedy — the most far-reaching amnesty program in American history. 

McCain-Lieberman — the most onerous and intrusive attack on American industry — through reporting, regulating, and taxing authority of greenhouse gases — in American history. 

McCain-Kennedy-Edwards — the biggest boon to the trial bar since the tobacco settlement, under the rubric of a patients’ bill of rights.

McCain-Reimportantion of Drugs — a significant blow to pharmaceutical research and development, not to mention consumer safety (hey Rudy, pay attention, see link). 

And McCain’s stated opposition to the Bush 2001 and 2003 tax cuts was largely based on socialist, class-warfare rhetoric — tax cuts for the rich, not for the middle class. The public record is full of these statements. Today, he recalls only his insistence on accompanying spending cuts. 

As chairman of the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation, McCain was consistently hostile to American enterprise, from media and pharmaceutical companies to technology and energy companies. 

McCain also led the Gang of 14, which prevented the Republican leadership in the Senate from mounting a rule change that would have ended the systematic use (actual and threatened) of the filibuster to prevent majority approval of judicial nominees.

&lt;b&gt;Vote Romney - the candidate with a very impressive record of decades of achievements in business, as governor of MA, and with the SLC Olympics.  Romney is a *proven* leader who has shown time and time again that he can actually get things done. Talk is cheap, accomplishments matter.&lt;/b&gt;</description>

Does anybody remember McCain last year in the following:

Illegal Aliens do the jobs Americans won&#039;t do. McCain had the nerve to challenge the American people that he would pay $50 an hour to anyone who would come to his ranch and work the fields the way the Illegal Aliens do.

Remember the phrase &quot;JOBS AMERICANS WON&#039;T DO?&quot; 

HE&#039;S NOT TALKING ABOUT ILLEGALS BUT HE STILL WANTS TO DO IT. IF HE IS ELECTED, HE WILL WORK WITH KENNEDY AND THE REST OF THE CROWD TO MAKE IT HAPPEN. REMEMBER LINDSEY GRAHAM ALSO SUPPORTED THE AMNESTY BILL, FOLKS.

CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE PUT McCAIN ON THE SPOT AND MAKE HIM TAKE A STAND ON ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION? THE AMERICAN PEOPLE DESERVE TO KNOW JUST WHERE THAT MAN STANDS. 

I THOUGHT MITT ROMNEY WAS GOING TO DO IT BUT HE IS NOT TAKING THE FIGHT TO McCAIN. AND FRED THOMPSON IS ONLY INTERESTED IN THUMPING HUCKABEE BECAUSE McCAIN IS HIS FRIEND.

THIS NEEDS TO BE BROUGHT OUT BEFORE THE SOUTH CAROLILNA PRIMARY. IF YOU WANT AMNESTY FOR ILLEGALS, McCAIN IS YOUR GUY.
 ___

I DON&#039;T CARE WHO WINS AS LONG AS IT IS NOT JOHN McCAIN.</description>

<p>Illegal Aliens do the jobs Americans won't do. McCain had the nerve to challenge the American people that he would pay $50 an hour to anyone who would come to his ranch and work the fields the way the Illegal Aliens do.</p>
<p>Remember the phrase "JOBS AMERICANS WON'T DO?"<br />
___</p>
<p>TO FI:   HOW SOON WE FORGET!!!!  I REMEMBER JOHN McCAIN RUNNING HIS OLD TAIL AROUND PROMOTING AMNESTY FOR ILLEGAL ALIENS. I ALSO REMEMBER LINDSEY GRAHAM OF SOUTH CAROLINA ALSO SUPPORTS ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION. I WILL REMEMBER.<br />
MITT ROMNEY OR HUCKABEE</p>

		<description>I believe  McCain does not have anything new for change and is just going to follow failed Bush policy , american people should not be fooled again. Iraq war from beginning was failure and there will not be victory in this war and the only solution for it will be in Iraqi people hand.
we need new man with totally different policy than Bush to change the course and raise our country and save our economy and people. NO BUSH NO MCCAIN !!!!!!!!!!</description>

Remember the phrase &quot;JOBS AMERICANS WON&#039;T DO?&quot; 

HE&#039;S NOT TALKING ABOUT ILLEGALS BUT HE STILL WANTS TO DO IT. IF HE IS ELECTED, HE WILL WORK WITH KENNEDY AND THE REST OF THE CROWD TO MAKE IT HAPPEN. REMEMBER LINDSEY GRAHAM ALSO SUPPORTED THE AMNESTY BILL, FOLKS.

CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE PUT McCAIN ON THE SPOT AND MAKE HIM TAKE A STAND ON ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION? THE AMERICAN PEOPLE DESERVE TO KNOW JUST WHERE THAT MAN STANDS. 

I THOUGHT MITT ROMNEY WAS GOING TO DO IT BUT HE IS NOT TAKING THE FIGHT TO McCAIN. AND FRED THOMPSON IS ONLY INTERESTED IN THUMPING HUCKABEE BECAUSE McCAIN IS HIS FRIEND.

THIS NEEDS TO BE BROUGHT OUT BEFORE THE SOUTH CAROLILNA PRIMARY. IF YOU WANT AMNESTY FOR ILLEGALS, McCAIN IS YOUR GUY.</description>

		<description>When Lou Dobbs goes on nightly about the wrongs of this country, he tells it like it is.  Why are Governmental Officials not paying attention...act quickly to correct the issues.  Instead ,they ignore the yelling and cries...of the people...Poor Mr. Dobb...he is what the governmental officials call &quot;unfit&quot; because he is &quot;dead-on&quot; right to voice his anger and disgust...too bad the Officials don&#039;t see it that way.  Ms. C. Jugmohan</description>

		<description>No matter how the news spins it McCain will never be the front runner since for the majority of the Republican party the border is one of the top issues and he has already shown his true colors.  You pretty much have to be an idiot to think that you can have National Security without having a grip on our borders since drugs come across the border already so what is to stop weapons being added to the mix.  Especially considering the level of lawlessness in Mexico and other Southern American countries where rocket propelled gernades and other weapons are more readily available.  In addition he will never win the ticket because of his constant support for far left policies and his co-sponsorship of bills with those on the extreme left of the Democrat party.

Of course some idiot will now procede to call me anti-immigrant even though I have zero references to immigrants.  But that is the Democrats for yah, border security=racism no matter if you hate immigrants or are just sick of the total lack of respect for the laws of this land and the Constitution upon which this Nation was founded.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t really understand why Republicans are voting in the masses for Huckabee and McCain.  Neither candidate has a good record on tax relief and immigration, both of which are key conservative issues.   Republicans need to take a closer look at these guys.  Also, I&#039;m not convinced on their stance on the war on terrorism (McCain wouldn&#039;t waterboard a terrorist to save a school house filled with children).

That leaves Mitt Romney.  A good conservative.  A good man with high moral values.   Michigan voters............please look at him closely.  Go to his website to find his stance on the issues; don&#039;t listen to the media.   

Romney would be a great leader that this country needs now.</description>

		<description>Mike Huckabee is a Democrat in Republican clothing. He is also playing the class warfare card. &quot;True conservatives&quot; don&#039;t do that. One must ask himself the question. Did I ever get hired for a job by a poor person? Of course not. So guys like David of Oregon and many others who are perhaps disappointed in their economic place in society need to forget any hope for the future in voting for jokes like Huckleberry, just to &quot;get back&quot; at the elitists. Besides, if you studied Romney&#039;s life, he is not an elitist, like for instance a Kennedy or a Gore. Just because a person has lots of money does not connote snobbery. Mitt is the real deal.
And furthermore, John Mc Liberal is just the same old Democratic mantra of tax and spend, amnesty for illegals etc., just like the Huckster. THAT&#039;S WHY THE LIBERAL MEDIA PROMOTES THEM. THEY ARE SCARED STIFF OF MITT.</description>

		<description>Latest Rasmussen Michigan poll out minutes ago  

Mitt Romney 26%

John McCain  25%

Mike Huckabee 17%


Mitt Romney is going back up in the polls as the economy is the issue. Mitt has the resume to lead America he turned around the State of Massachuetts, helped start succesfull buisnesses like Staples and bailed out Dominoes Pizza.  

Michigan is in  arecession and Mike Huckabee would sink them deeper into it with his huge tax increases. He would increase crime by pardoning and releasing more murderers from jail. 

John McCain looks like a smug angry old man who want to go to war forever especialy in Iraq.</description>

		<description>Michigan &amp; South Carolina,

America’s only choice for President is clear. Don’t be suckered in by the elite media’s propaganda. Tens of millions of dollars was donated by Wall Street to purchase the White House in this election. Some candidates are just too old or too liberal to win. Please remember, the rest of the country is waiting and depending on you (Michigan &amp; South Carolina) to give us the opportunity to elect Huckabee and say no to big government that doe not work, Wall Street, and the elite media. Those Americans who never had a set at the table, who don’t have the big money or a voice in this election are waiting to cast their vote for Mike Huckabee. Please provide America’s true conservatives the opportunity to vote with you and elect Mike Huckabee President. No more Presidents from Camelot!</description>

		<description>Aileen,

&quot;Is Steve Blaine&#039;s comment accurate? If yes, how is it that McCain is permitted to be President if he as so elected?

Will someone please explain this to me, because this comment by Steve leaves me very confused.

Thanks to any one who can clear this up for me.&quot;

No problem Aileen.  Steve&#039;s comment is not very well researched.  In nearly all cases, a child being born within a United States territory is a natural born citizen.  In fact, that&#039;s not even required.  If two US citizens are living in a foreign country and have a child... that child, so long as the child is registered at the embassy or consulate, is considered a natural born citizen.

When Senator McCain was born in the Panama Canal Zone, it was to a military family, within the soveriegn United States.  There is no issue with his citizenship lol.

These citizenship laws are readily available to anyone who would choose to do a 5 second google search, instead of making an uneducated and unresearched comment on a CNN forum.</description>

		<description>Was reading the full article and buried in the text is this news:


&quot;Clinton is at 49 percent in the new poll, up nine points from the December survey, with Obama at 36 percent, which is a six-point gain from his December standing.&quot;


So this means that after all the hoopla of Iowa and NH, Clinton is still the frontrunner by far, and Obama and Edwards are still 2nd and 3rd...yet, CNN once again has chosen to ignore this part of the poll and just use the McCain headline.   As if trying to bury the fact Clinton is still ahead nationally amongst Democrats, once again demonstrating a bias towards Obama.   This is becoming a disturbing pattern...one that has to be reversed if CNN is to maintain any credibility as they report on the Presidential campaign and the candidates.   The coverage MUST BE FAIR AND COVER EVERYONE EQUALLY!!!!</description>

		<description>McCain&#039;s a stubborn, angry, crusty old war monger, who will only make things worse for this country. 
He&#039;ll bring the draft back and it won&#039;t be the illegals he allows in that will be drafted!</description>

		<description>Here they go again... After being bashed, and bashing themselves, about polls and using them to declare candidates as frontrunners, CNN (and I suspect other media) are jumping on another bandwagon. I don&#039;t think the national polls yet reflect the honest, considered choices that voters really will make on their respective election dates. They hear headlines from New Hampshire and, sure, they would support McCain, so they say his name. (66% of Republicans did not choose McCain in the poll, after all.) The media really need to get a grip, and take deep long breaths, this election season.</description>

		<description>I hope like many others that it will be Clinton v McCain for the White House. Then we will have a choice to make between two substantial, intelligent and thoughtful Americans. Lets steer away from those in hock to the fundamentalists who have already ensured that the US is far less free today than 8 years ago and let&#039;s also remember that lasting change generally occurs incrementally.</description>

		<description>McCain was born in the Panama Canal zone which was a U.S. territory at the time, so he can be President.  Don&#039;t you think the Dems would have brought this up by now if it was an issue?</description>

		<description>I caught yesterday&#039;s edition of The Situation Room and I could not have been more embarrassed by John King&#039;s on the bus interview with John McCain.  Every question asked was the softest of softballs, the fluffiest of fluffballs.  These are the questions I remember (only slightly paraphrased):

-- It is now one year since Pres. Bush announced the Siege in Iraq.  Don&#039;t you feel vindicated?  Feel free to gloat on camera.
-- In the 2000 South Carolina Primary people played some dirty tricks on you regarding your adopted daughter from Bangladesh.  This year you have a campaign brochure that contains a picture of your wife Cindy holding your daughter as a baby in the orphanage.  Feel free to say some nice things about your family.
-- You have been a rock-ribbed right-to-life conservative Republican for your entire career.  (Take my word for it America, he really has!)  But for some reason, some Republican primary voters just don&#039;t seem to get this.  When do you think they will start to finally get with the program?

	When is the media going to get over their love affair with John McCain (&quot;he let me sit next to him on the bus!&quot;) and start giving him the same scrutiny that every candidate deserves?  It is no wonder that the biggest loser of the election so far has been the reputation of the media.</description>

		<description>McCain in not really the front runner for the GOP, neither is Hillary.  They keep changing the electronic vote count.  It is no secret to anyone in American that electronic vote counting is fraudlent.  The voting machines are rigged and these phony candidates are not the ones voters really chose.  Check latest vote counting fraud protests on dennis4president.com and www.infowars.com. Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich are ahead according to the polls, Voting machines  have destroyed the integrity and truthfulness of elections in the United states.  The voting machines and those who have made millions and billions from their fraud should be prosecuted for treason against the American people.</description>

		<description>The media is purely against Huckabee...how did one poll in SC have him at 36 and two days later go to a FOX poll at 18%...

I don&#039;t buy that McCain is leading..Huckabee is leading and hopefully there are enough people who realize that the media is trying to influence them against 
the only Republican that can win....the best person in America for this job!</description>

		<description>Is Steve Blaine&#039;s comment accurate? If yes, how is it that McCain is permitted to be President if he as so elected?

Will someone please explain this to me, because this comment by Steve leaves me very confused.

Thanks to any one who can clear this up for me.</description>

		<description>I posted this on another site but I feel its important to post here:

This CNN poll shows me that when it comes down to electability and winning elections the republicans get it and sadly, many of the of Dems don&#039;t.  

The Republicans are in &quot;survival&quot; mode right now, in a year when they should be in real trouble in the presidential election.   Polls pitting dems against republicans and often show McCain faring the best and even winning some of the matchups. Republicans have noticed this, and this is why, despite some repubs reservations about McCain, he is now leading in many of their polls.  The repubs are willing to back a candidate they see as having the &quot;best chance&quot; to win, even if its not their first choice because they want to WIN the election

Unfortunately for the Dems, about 30-40% of Dem faithful are letting 1990s Nostalgia and their fond feelings for the Clintons blind them to reality - that Hillary will have the hardest time winning the general election out of all the Dem frontrunners, and could quite possibly lose.  In some polls, she is even losing to McCain in traditionally blue states like Pennsylvania and Maryland 

As a Dem, I like Clinton, don&#039;t get me wrong. But her supporters need to understand that a candidate needs to GET elected in order to enact all their great ideas. - otherwise, great ideas are just that - ideas that never come to fruition.  All of her &quot;35 years&quot; of experience she touts won&#039;t mean a thing if she can&#039;t win the general.

Dems need to wake up, or we are going to experience heartache in November, spend the next 4-8 years with a repub in office.  Then we&#039;ll still be stuck in Iraq, 47 million people will still be without health care, etc. etc.</description>

		<description>&quot;I will follow Bin Laden to the Gates of Hell&quot; I believe he would. John McCain what are you going to do for the loss of manufaturing jobs in Michigan. I thought I heard you say they were lost and not comming back. I wish you had Executive expereience you dont. You are just part of the problem in Washington I  know many people who are not fooled by your war mongering positions and sarcastic attitude. 

Mitt Romney is the true leader who is level headed, honest and has Great Executive Leaderhip Experience. Another huge plus he was born in Michigan and knows and cares about Ford, GM, and Chrysler. He cares about all the workers and wants to see them prosper with good jobs. He wont give up like John McCain!</description>

		<description>NO to McCain and NO to Huckabee please!  Republican party is doomed if either one of these men is a nominee. Neither one of them will be able to beat Obama or Hillary in general.  Why don&#039;t people think about the serious issues facing us in these troubled times (i.e. economy and immigration) instead of blindly falling in love with just rhetoric, folksy tales of McCain and Huckabee.  I am very tired of both of them frankly.</description>

		<description>John McCain is not a natural born American which is required by the Constitution. He was born in Panama. His parents were citizens and he is a Citizen but the Constitution requires the President to be a natureal born American. Additionally he is to hot tempered to have his fingers on the nuclear trigger.</description>

		<description>It really is worthless to run a poll result if 40% of the voters will not be republican in Michigan.   Romney is winning the Republican base.   If anyone undecided will listen to Mitt speak for ten minutes with an open mind they will see that he is brilliant.   The dems and media know that Mitt would crush anyone in a one on one debate so they are still talking  up Ron Paul and other losers.  

McCain is just another Sr Senator veteran like Bob Dole in 1996.    Obama/Oprah or the Clintons would have a very big victory against McCain.  

Now that the news is out that Rudy is low on money, Mitt is the only candidate that can go the distance and win in November.    If the people of Michigan do not wake up and give Mitt a win that would make the dems and the media very happy.</description>

		<description>What does all this say about McCain&#039;s character?  These blurbs are from goggling his wives.... Carol,  Cindy... wow...

According to the newspaper, McCain returned to Jacksonville in 1973 after more than five years as a prisoner of war to find that his wife was a different person. Carol McCain, once a model, had been badly injured in a car wreck in 1969. The article recounts that her injuries &quot;left her 4 inches shorter and on crutches, and she gained a good deal of weight.&quot; 
By 1979, McCain was concerned that his Naval career was not advancing and pondering his future. He met Cindy Hensley, an attractive 25-year-old woman from a wealthy Arizona family. McCain courted her and married her in May 1980 -- a month after getting a divorce. 
Carol McCain waited for the return of her husband from his Vietnamese captivity for five and a half long years; as McCain idolator David Grann put it in the New Republic, she was &quot;a kind of modern-day Penelope to McCain&#039;s Odysseus.&quot; She carried her burden with nobility, and resolve, staying faithful to the man she refused to believe she had lost – even in the face of her own tragedy. It was Christmas Eve, 1969, while driving along a snowbound street, that she went crashing into a telephone pole: the impact hurled her through the windshield. She lost her left leg, ruptured her spleen, and went through a long series of agonizingly painful operations. Before the accident, she had been a statuesque beauty who worked as a model; she came out of it with four inches subtracted from her height, broken in body – but not in spirit. Her love for her war hero husband forbade her from letting him know anything of her condition: he knew nothing of the accident, and she refused to write him about it since it would only make his burden heavier. 

From Justin&#039;s website;
THE RETURN OF THE INGRATE
Any man would be lucky to have such a fierce, unbending love: she stuck by him, agitating for his release, and living for the day of his return. Her devotion was repaid with rejection. He learned of her accident on the plane home, and wasted no time in getting rid of her. He was soon back to his old tricks of playing the field – &quot;just as he had at the Naval Academy,&quot; says Grann – and soon sought a divorce. He openly acknowledges that his behavior was solely responsible for the break-up of his marriage, and seems to glory in the macho role while simultaneously professing at least some sense of remorse: &quot;I think she has reason to be bitter,&quot; McCain told one interviewer.
 

I think this is going to be a problem again for Him, plus the Keating Five</description>

		<description>The best candidate is MITT ROMNEY !!! If the economy is starting to go downhill now, it&#039;s best to have someone with a business degree who knows how to run the country. A POW degree will not help in MCCain&#039;s case, even though he seems to know about other issues..As for the Democrats, a change degree doesn&#039;t help the economy either. Most of the rest of the candidates have a mouth in Masters Degree anyway..</description>
