		<description>McCain has always hated Stevens.  Not only will he throw him under the bus, he will run it back and forth a few times.  Really surprised no comment for the McCain Slime media, though.  Could it be McLame is hiding from another Republican puppett have his strings cut off?</description>

		<description>Too bad that he won&#039;t loose his election based upon the simple fact that he&#039;s a total idiot.  That would have made me happier.  The fact that he&#039;s a crook is almost besides the point.</description>

		<description>**************************************************************

I feel Senator Steven&#039;s pain.  But listen up my friends:

I always say where there is smoke there is fire. So if AFL - CIO is denying something, there must be some truth in there somewhere.

Besides Obama is the riskier of the two candidates. I am afraid of his immature decisions and his hesitancy to go to war when everyone in Congress, the President and foreign leaders think we should.

Obama is a flipper of the worst kind.

Watch him try to resurrect the welfare queen industry. if you want someone to protect our values pick McCain, if you want some risky leader choose obama.

He lives in a state of denial about the surge……………………..</description>

		<description>Vote Nader  -There are more blog entries on Sen. Stevens than there has been for Ralph Nader this whole election. What gives?

Because no one cares about Nadar.  He is a non-issue in this upcoming election.  What could possibly be interesting or newsworthy about him?</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t watch polls or believe in them - when it comes to the day of voting the American people in the privacy of the voting booth will make their choice. 

McCain is paying money for ads that hold no substance and try to highlight Obama as a celebrity? Strange, the American people were in love with our biggest celebrity president JFK so maybe a popular President is something this country is in need of. 

I also like how McCain is flip flopping more than a fish out of water! suddenly he&#039;s all about off shore drilling? hmmm - Lets face it, when was the last time we saw a crowd in a foreign country waving the American flag, without it being on fire? 

Roll on November - it&#039;s about time this country had a new direction to follow.</description>

		<description>Why can&#039;t there be pension reform on Congress who break the law?  I don&#039;t get it.  Some of them would not change because they don&#039;t need the pension but it could stop a lot of junior congressman from thinking about such a thing.j

Also, I don&#039;t like it when Congress uses the governments&#039; money to name buildings after themselves.</description>

You thrive on ignorance.  He purchased the house for $300, 000 under the asking price.  considering the house cost them $1.65 mil that&#039;s not unusual.</description>

		<description>&quot;The poll also shows Americans are divided when it comes to the effect of offshore drilling. Just over 50 percent think it will reduce gas prices&quot;

how can there still be 50% of any poll that are STILL that stupid? people, you dont even understand offshore drilling or you wouldnt think it will lower gas prices---at least not for another 7 or 8 years.  when will you understand that the white house is FILLED to the brim with thieves and liars?!?!?  dont believe a word they say, or their shills like limbought, hannity, beck, and the rest of those losers!  we cannot STILL be this dumb; i hope they were polling FOX idiots only!</description>

		<description>I&#039;m glad this corrupt old geezer is getting indicted! I look forward to many more, as well as trials for War Crimes, for current members of the Administration and the Republican party. It&#039;s time for some justice after being lied to and scammed for the last eight years!</description>

		<description>I wonder if he&#039;s still arogant? This guy is a piece of work,period. There are so many Mayors,Governors and the such that over the past few years have had work done on there homes. The difference is although they got it for free they weren&#039;t stupid enough to hide it. Instead they held it up to thier constituents as an example of &quot;GREEN&quot; living. I think this just clearly shows his personal arogance and that he truly believed he was beyond reproach. I do hope the good folks of Alaska are proud.</description>

Now for the affair with Vicki, &quot;the media is my political base&quot;- John McCain. also you might want to do a little research on Lowell Paxson,FCC, the $100,000.00 donation to John McCain. trust Terry i have done my research…all to well. but thaks for playing…kisses</description>

		<description>HMMMMMMMMMMM?....Stevens must have become exhausted, overworked, and displayed a moment of bad judgement after dedicating his life to public service. Stevens, and the others in Washington should take a long, hard look into their mirrors when home again on recess. How many of them can honestly feel self respect, while being responsible for such failure. Respect is earned, and sadly the members of congress haven&#039;t done that. They are not one bit better than the Executive branch. Yet they sneak back to their districts, and hope they can continue the dishonesty that is just who they are. To those who have a clear conscience, keep up the good work.</description>

		<description>Ted Stevens is a prime example of why extensive experience in Washington DC does not automatically equate to sound judgement.  

McCain touts experience, but it&#039;s not the experience needed to make the drastic changes we need as a country.</description>
