Romney you have your own skeltons please how dare you call anyone dishonest!
Check your buddies record fact check does wonders. He, McCain continues to tell American people wrong misleading info' 1 perfect example is the amount of Americans that will be taxed or affected.
It is not 32,000 it is 250,000 and only 5% will be taxed on Obama' plan.
Stop with the lies!

I think the figure was 1.1 million of oil money greasing McCain's pocket. Where is the dishonesty? I understood that the Obama campaign took money also from that slippery source, but much less. Sorry, Romney.

McCain's hilarious take on Barack Obama's 'Tire Gauge energy Plan' is really telling. The only thing missing is another McCain Ad depicting Pelosi with a Bicycle Pump with her name on it . Pelosi has been doing nothing in Congress but had been too busy promoting Obama. Now we think McCain should include Pelosi in another ad
with her name on a Bicycle Pump . The two got together.
McCain's sense of humor is hilarious indeed. with an ad like that.

CNN stop it! This is outrageous and shameless! When McSame finally agrees and 'shifts' on the Iraq timetable, you call it convergence!!! When Obama strategizes, you call it 'shift'! How many 'shift stories' about Obama are in your headlines?

Romney is dishonest, the perfect running mate for McCain.

Obama's plan cuts taxes more than McCain's plan. Obama will have a lower budget deficit than McCain. Look at the FACTS.

Well, I have voted Democrat my entire seventy-eight years, but I can't bring myself to vote for Obama. I'm not a racist either. If anyone, states, " they'll not vote for Obama , they're called a racist ". My problem, is I don't think, Obama has enough experience & his judgment isn't too great either. Our best Democrat for the next President, was Hillary Clinton, but the media, knocked her out of the nomination. So if Hillary isn't Obama's V/P, goodbye to my vote for Obama. Read about Tom Brokaw, being called a racist, because, he didn't have a black, on the list to be the next moderator of the TV program, " Meet The Press ". You see, what this racist deal has come to, what that comment.

I want McCain to pick him just to watch him lose again.

McPain acts like one of those spoil airheaded cheerleader who thought she was the greatest until a new person who is smarter and better looking comes to town. Cheerleader McPain can't handle the fact that everyone likes and believes that the new CheerLEADER can make a difference. So, cheerleader McPain starts sabotaging and spreding lies about the new CheerLeader to make this new CheerLeader look bad. But, cheerleader McPain's plans backfires and he is the one lookng like a fool and the new cheerLeader WINS at the end. What is sad is now he has his losing friends trying to help and they end up looking stupid too. The only thing McPain's negative ads are doing is showing the world just what kind of idiot he really is. What are is plans? He won't state his plans because they are to much like President Bush Monkey's. OBAMA 08

Did Romney say this with a straight face? I mean, he can't really be offended by dishonesty when he's a serious contender for the VP spot to an incredibly dishonest candidate like McCain. Just go to factcheck.org and you'll see a huge list of McCain lies clearly outlined.

When will Obama explain why he voted FOR the Bush-Cheney energy bill?

McCain voted AGAINST that same bill.

Obama is now blaming McCain and the Republicans for U.S. energy problems....no wonder this guy will only agree to 3 debates.

Sounds like the pot calling the kettle black. Mitt Romney looks and sounds dishonest and McCain reminds me of a doddering old fool who is just making up stuff as he goes along. The current situation in this country is not a laughing matter so enough with the jokes and lets see what each presumptive nominee plans are at fixing things i.e. economy, healtcare and Iraq. Tired of the ha ha so not funny. Knock it off.

CNN should be ashamed for letting his comments go unchallenged.

LIE from Romney's mouth: during this clip: "...we can rid ourselves of our dependence of foreign oil by simply inflating our tires and tuning up our engines."

TOTALLY UNCHALLENGED, CNN....If I want FAUX news I'll turn to the FAUX NEW CHANNEL.

I am worried that Mr. McCain did nothing to address our issues while he was in Washington for the last 26 years. Now all of a sudden he wants "change" and he is supposedly independent of the republican party. How does that work for 26 years of McSame?

Obama doesn't think that he is the Messiah but your leader Joseph Smith did. He was a true racist and you live by his every word. Jesus is the way the truth and the life. You my friend are a follower of the dark side. Joseph Smith was the dishonest one if you ask me and those that follow him and his teachings are going to be cast into the FIRE. That is what the Holy Bible says. The only way to God is through the Son and Joseph Smith is not him and has never seen him or met him.
So be careful when you call another the Messiah.

Romney is a problem solver: he fixed the Olympics and was a genius in business. He will make a great VP and has already been vetted by the media and the people. As seen from many of these posts, there are no complaints of substance against him-just blind intolerance and shrill accusations.

To all you Obamatons in Obamaville get used to three things...

2. Your Candidates numbers will keep going down for he has already hit the ceiling.

If you don't like what McCain is campaigning on, then have give us some intelligent reason why you don't support him. The most intelligent debate here is that "Romney has slick hair." Sounds like high school talk. Obama is a hypocrite. He complains that McCain has taken "oil money" when he himself has taken over $300,000. He takes a position depending on his audience. That's change we can depend on. I also have hope that he will change his position again on other issues. Obama's solution to high energy costs is to tax oil companies and give the money to the poor. It didn't work too well for the Soviet Union, it won't work here.

That ad was sacrireligious at best and blatantly ignorant at its worst. It just goes to show how desparate the Republican party has become. They don't even show reference for God. There is only one Messiah. Barak Obama has not even made the slightest claim to that effect. That would make that ad a complete lie. Further, the last I checked; "thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor." , was also one of the TEN commandments. Apparently, McCain and his crew have no fear of God. McCain and his minions show absolutely no restraints in his endeavor to become President. Even throwing a contributor's daughter under the bus, mock God's Word (Messiah), out right lie in stating your opponet is the cause of high gas prices; etc; etc.... And remember; " I'm John McCain, and I approve of this message". Doesn't all these things just attest to the lack of character, and honor on McCain's part? Weren't we lied to about WMD's and Al Qaeda's involvement in Iraq? Now we have another Republican hopeful lying and distorting the truth to us again. The only thing more pathetic than that, is that people will prefer the lie. And since that ad referenced Scriptures; let me give you one more; in speaking of satan scripture states: "... When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it." So you see, when we give our cherished vote to someone that willfully lies, what does that say about us? What does that say about you, McCain supporter. I mean if one believes in that kind of stuff, which some don't but many do, then one should consider what would God think of McCain's idea of funny? So, this is the guy who has the proper judgment to run this nation? Yeah, I bet, run this country straight into a deeper hole than what we find ourselves in today. Go ahead put this funny man into office and watch the plight of us working folks. You'll have no one to blame, but yourself...........

Pathetic - Mitt Romney is another one in the back pocket of the big oil companies along with John McCain and Dubya. I wonder which one of the three of them pocketed the most from the big oil companies profits? Who is their right mind would believe anything that comes out of this fool's lying mouth? Romney, John McCain and his campaign need to take those tire gauges the McCain campaign handed out today in an attempt to mock ONE OF Senator Obama's MANY proven and sensible idea on energy conservation, and CHECK THAT LOW ROAD EXPRESS THEY ARE RIDING ON!

Let's stay focused on the issue and quit playing games with ads of young rich white girls that apparently has too much money on their hands. Let's stay on track and figure out a way to help American recover from this mess the GOP has gotten us into over the past 7 years.

The only person that is dishonest in the election is McSame and his cohort– Romney in particular. Please run that "NO MITT" ad on New York Times again!!

So, who should be McSame's VP running mate? Here is my thought:

McSame/Romney– so they could flip-floping & lying all the time together like a pair of dolphin. Sorry Romney himself could do just that plus terrorizing his family dog

McSame/ Brett Favre– same reason as above

McSame/Bob Dole– They could run a Viagara ad together spying Britney Spear

McSame/Giuliani– so they could compare notes how to cheat on their wives

McSame/Thompson– so they could fall asleep together during the presidential debate

McSame/Cris– two could ride on a shrimp boat and punch holes along our coastal areas

McSame/LIEberman– so McSame could get a timely reminder
