		<description>Who cares about endorsements?  I guess they really think we&#039;ll follow where ever they lead us.  Everyone should just look at the issues of the candidates and make up their own mind.  I&#039;m personally sick of them trying to influence me.  What good does it do anyway when they don’t count all of the votes?

On another note, endorsements seem also to be the way to catch the “flip-flopping disease”......Romney endorsed McCain and then McCain flip-flopped on his stance for torture.

I was actually looking forward to voting Republican for the first time in my life, but it looking more and more like I’ll have to just do a writ-in……</description>

		<description>I&#039;m tired of all these &quot;big-wigs&quot; endorsing McCain and basically trying to get me to jump on the McCain BANDWAGON. I&#039;m educated enough to think for myself, thank you. I&#039;ve been a Huckabee supporter since DAY ONE, and will continue to be when I FINALLY get my chance to vote next month in Texas. I&#039;m getting tired of this McCain CORONATION, last time I checked this was the USA not ENGLAND!!!</description>

		<description>It doesn&#039;t matter who endorses whom. Look at their issues and base you vote on that! I challenge everyone to really look at that before they cast a vote. Don&#039;t stick with party lines, go to the person that best represents what you think!

And as some people have been misleading with statements about Irag and the economy: Iraq has improved greatly since the troop surge and I dare you to prove otherwise. The economy is not in a recession, you actually need a decrease rather than a growth to claim it as that. Unemployment is still at an all time low and the economy has has not stop growth for the past 6 years. Also, the defecit has decreased and continues to go down. If you want to control it more, get the Democrates to cut out the pork!</description>

		<description>I like McCain. I watched him on Larry King last night and I appreciate the fact that Larry King highlighted 2 areas where McCain&#039;s positions have been misquoted and taken out of context. The supposed 100 years in Iraq and his position on tax cuts. 

There was one thing that caught my attention though, the new catch phrase describing terrorist activity as the &quot;transcendent threat of the 21st century&quot;. Based on the string of  recent and recurring college, high school and city hall shootings, the United States has a healthy crop of home grown terrorists and perhaps it should address domestic gun control laws. This seems a more pressing and transcendent social illness than any foreign boogeyman may pose.</description>

		<description>This is amusing in that so many conservatives blame the first coming of The President Clinton machine on George HW Bush&#039;s failures. Now, as McCain tries to unite the party and bring those conservatives back into the fold, he gets the blessing of the poster child for conservative scapegoating.</description>

		<description>Texas is an important state in the general election. Of course McKain needs to build strong support in that state. He will make a serious run at the Mexican American vote once the general election begins. Please understand that people commonly refered to as Latinos are more diverse than that name truely captures. In Texas as in my home state of Arizona we refer to ourselves as Mexican Americans or Chicanos. Thank you.</description>

		<description>I hope everyone realizes that it is President George H.W. Bush, and not President George W. Bush.  This was the Bush that increased taxes, an increased that allowed President Clinton not to raise taxes.  Also, it was this tax raise that allowed us to carry a surplus in the late 1990&#039;s.  His economic plan was sound, leaving Clinton with a good fiscal government.  It was the newest Bush who cut taxes during a recession and started a war.  That is not very fiscally sound.

Who are you people who think this is the same President Bush we have now?  I&#039;m sorry if this George H.W. Bush&#039;s Iraq War ended with a functioning government.  The father is not the son, and his legacy should not be tainted as such.</description>

<p>Who are you people who think this is the same President Bush we have now?  I'm sorry if this George H.W. Bush's Iraq War ended with a functioning government.  The father is not the son, and his legacy should not be tainted as such.</p>

		<description>I used to always vote Republican - until I saw Obama.   Bush endorsing McCain- well, good luck John, you are going to need it.  We don&#039;t need more of the same, and the country realizes that.  By the way, didn&#039;t elder Bush CREATE younger Bush and endorse him as well.  We all know how that turned out.  I voted for a Bush 4 times in my life.  No more.

For the first time in my life, I&#039;m voting for a Democrat.  Yikes.  I&#039;m scared, but after hearing Obama speak, my heart tells me it is the right thing to do.  He has that special quality all great leaders have - the ability to inspire and give people hope while at the same time bringing all sorts of different people together - it is really quite amazing to behold.  Although I don&#039;t agree with all his policies, I haven&#039;t ever seen someone quite like him.  Although my father tells me Obama reminds him of Bobby Kennedy.</description>

		<description>Some people seem confused.  McCain is being endorsed by George H.W. Bush, not the current president.  Bush 41 is a more respected president.</description>

		<description>Folks, I think you all need to look back in history to see what President George Bush (H.W.) actually did for this country.  You&#039;re judging him by what his son and his son&#039;s administration has done for the past 4 years.  When I say his administration I am referring to the VP and the infamous Donald Runsfeld.  
Actually, President Bush (H.W.) did an outstanding job during his 4 years, but unfortunately had folks around him who ran a very bad campaign against then Gov. Clinton.  I won&#039;t get into too many facts, but you may want to re-think what you&#039;re stating on this Blog.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve heard some Dems complaining on here that the Reps. stole their name by calling them the Democrat party.

Well, grammatically they are correct.  A person belonging to the liberal party is know as a Democrat and a person belonging to the conservative party is known as a Republican.  Therefore, a party belonging to the Democrats would be known as the Democrat Party and the party belonging to the Republicans would be known as the Republican party.  If it were to be called the Democratic party then it&#039;s members should be known as Democratics not Democrats.  Democratic party is an adjective which describes the parties organization and because the party uses delegates and doesn&#039;t use a direct vote, it is more of a process known as a Republican process.  (The difference between a true democracy and a representative process known as a republic)

So please get the English straight.</description>

		<description>I am also a veteran of the 1st Gulf  War. And to commet on John McCain statement on the 100yrs in the gulf. Ever since the world trade building were knock down the American People wanted to get those involved. We have since shifted and instead of going those involved we went and got the goat. We did not have the right information when we went into that country. It was a bad move then and a bad move still. We are racking up debt faster than we know how to control it. With no end in sight. We did not win the Korean War, or Vietnam War. And we sure will not win this war. We were not then nor now ready or able to fight a HOLY WAR.... Then people have been doing this for hundreds of years and they will be doing it long after McCain is gone. The best thing we can do is to pull our troops out. And Start to rebuild at home. America need to invest in America. Because if we don&#039;t who will?????</description>

		<description>Basing on comments in most of the articles on here I take it Obama&#039;s supporters have a lot of free time on their hands.  Do they really think going into each thread on the board and yelling YES WE CAN or I SUPPORT OBAMA will change anyone&#039;s mind?  The comments aren&#039;t as bad in this article as they are in others, but I&#039;m betting they will be.    

In all honesty the way they&#039;ve acted has tipped the tables for me to not support the Democratic party at all.  It&#039;s like dealing with a child trying to get what they want - if you say no they get angry and yell and keep coming back for more.  Meh.</description>

		<description>We need Huckabee! Not more of the same Washington insiders (McCain, Clinton, Obama).  What have they been doing for us over the past years?  Look at what Governor Huckabee accomplished for Arkansas.

Wake up, America...before it&#039;s too late!</description>

		<description>George H. W. Bush was a very good president, if you review his record, and a true conservative.  He was intelligent and very well qualified for the job, having not only served eight years as Vice President, but as head of the CIA for years, also, and having served in the military.  He was a good president and is a good man and it&#039;s a shame his son has tarnished Bush Sr.&#039;s presidency with his rash behavior and his cowboy politics.  I do not want four more years of the same, but &quot;W&quot; and his dad were two VERY different politicians and I would not mind another four years of George Sr.&#039;s presidency, if that&#039;s what we&#039;d get from McCain.</description>

		<description>Ya.. McCain sounds great. He&#039;ll stay in Iraq for a hundred years if necessary.

Lets see... if we add up the Iraq cost to our defense budget it&#039;ll cost us 60 trillion dollars in those 100 years.

That&#039;s everything a million people like myself could make working for 2000 years.

No thanks John. We need to find some resolution and figure out how to recreate this country. You don&#039;t survive off a service based economy.</description>

		<description>It is good to see that somebody is finally bringing out some things that is not is good about media darling Obama. McCain said yesterday that Obama got $92 million in earmarks in 2005 and 2006 . It is good that McCain is tearing down the media wall of protection around Obama. Tell us more McCain about Goldenboy Obama. The media won&#039;t.

Congrats on you Bush endorsement McCain.</description>

		<description>When Romney released his delegates yesterday to McCain (which, we all know, he can&#039;t give away, he has to convince them to go with McCain), the thought of a Romney McCain ticket filled every democrat I know with Joy!, The election, Obama or Clinton, would be a cake-walk, now, that said, they also cited all of his previous endorsements!  Now this just puts the nail in the proverbial coffin.  As a Republican, we did stand by the president, for the most part, howevever, that was for the most part immediately following 9/11 and giving him the doubt now and again.  In the last election, I honestly voted, not Kerry, not for Bush.  His father?  Isn&#039;t that how Clinton got elected?  I&#039;m hoping Huckabee takes it to the convention and the Delegates have some sense.  Otherwise, the prospect of holding onto the white house with McCain are dim, indeed.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m commenting on a post below, &quot;On the Trail: Friday Feb 15th&quot; since comments seem to be disabled to that post. Ron Paul is still run in case you&#039;re not up on the news (irony intended). Even if you think he doesn&#039;t have a chance to win, you still have a journalistic duty to report the truth. All these stories of Huckabee not dropping out is branding him as a man with a purpose. What about Ron Paul&#039;s purpose? And he has even less of a chance to succeed than Huckabee. That&#039;s a real story right there. Just remember, there is a fifth man.</description>

		<description>I have lost all the respect I ever had for the Republican party. Clearly, all the party leaders are rallying around McCain. HEADLINE - he still does not have the required number of delegates to win. Huckabee or Paul may still win more delegates and make it impossible for McCain to win the nomination before the Convention convenes in November. Huckabee deserves a chance to continue his race until someone wins the required number of delegates. He has won the &quot;must win&quot; states for Republicans and still commands strong support. I believe the party, the media, and special interests groups want Huckabee out prior to March 4th, because they fear losing BIG in TX and OH. I will definitely cast my TX vote for Huckabee, and I deserve to have a voice in this somewhat rigged process.</description>

		<description>Interesting… they say the GOP is divided into moderate and conservative factions, yet both Romney and Bush are considered conservatives and they&#039;re backing moderate McCain. Me thinks the GOP is coming together to back their candidate regardless of their differences. This is nice to see, because McCain, at least, stands for something. He has a platform. Which is far more than I can say for Obama, who seems to be gathering votes by just saying &quot;We Need Change&quot;, yet having NO platform. Vote issues, people, not race.</description>
