CNN

lol, he managed to find yet another way of using the term 'surge'

Go Go McSurge!!! If you can't kill, bomb, or drill it, then surge it!

This is no joking matter.If mcWAR can't drill his way out he will surely bomb his way out.

BOMB,BOMB.BOMB his way out. Pathetic!

why the lies over and over about raising taxes?
oh yeah:
surge- apply directly to the forehead.
surge-apply directly to the forehead.
surge-apply directly to the forehead.

I think it's 225. For all of his suppoters ( all 6 of you) Gomer Pile aka John Mcaine can barely put on his velcro shoes on the right foot. Howe do you expect him to run a country.

Is this the state of mind surge or the surge before McSame wakes up in the morning. Did Cindy win Miss Buffulo Chip?

This guy is really starting to remind me of a little dictator!

OUT OF TOUCH??!!!?? lol

Interesting comment comming from someone who doesn't know sqwat about the economy!

You can't listen to someone who was the 5th dumbest guy in school!

Enough said!

Wait – Senator McCain thinks Senator Obama is out of touch? Hah – it's amazing he wasn't struck by lightening – or by a tire pressure gauge. As for Matt in Minneapolis MN, a little respect could be used on both sides – it isn't just those nasty old supporters of Senator Obama that have declined to show some respect.

Unaducated people will buy this ...........sad.

McCain said, without elaborating on what exactly an "economic surge"
is! Explain It McCain. I Think He Just Wanted To Use That "S" Word.

If He Thinks Tire Gages Are Sen. Obamas energy plan For America, Then Light Bulbs is Sen. McCains.

If Don't Know What I'm Referintg To Google It. (hid; Said In April, Turn off your lights 5 minutes.................

You morons go right ahead and listen to NOBAMA, pump up your tires and don't drill! That's exactly what the moron wants you other morons to do. He has gone on record that he isn't concerned about the high prices!!! Just worry about how much we use NOBAMA, not WHAT IT COSTS American citizens. Of course your mileage will increase some but according to NOBAMA's plan, just USE LESS, not pay less. Wake up!!!

Nuclear power is like giving a kid a loaded gun in this country. We can even keep our food clean or our citizens safe from natural diasters. Are you kidding me? AND who's back yards are these power plants going to be in?? NOT MINE!!! Try selling that to the America people.

Typical GOP loser ploy... accuse the opponent of having your qualities..

John McSlime has already stated for the record he knows little about economics except that flipping on speculative oil leases gets lots of cash in his pocket.

Won't you have some more chardonnay with your brie, Barry?

I'll support drilling when the Republicans state that the OIL COMPANIES CANNOT SELL OUR OIL ON THE WORLD MARKET.

AMERICAN OIL FOR AMERICA ONLY.

Until I see that as a regular part of the debate for drilling in the US. I will not support it.

IF THE OIL COMPANIES ARE ABLE TO SELL THE OIL ABROAD, THEN THE WHOLE ARGUMENT REALLY IS ABOUT MORE PROFITS FOR THE OIL COMPANIES AND MORE TRICKLE DOWN ECONOMICS FOR THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES!!!

WAKE UP common people who call yourselves REPUBLICANS/CONSERVATIVES.

If the republican congressmen and representatives are spefifying that that the oil drilled in America is only for American consumption and supply, that means that we the people will have to look for the leftovers.

And if you are willing to accept our oil being sold on the world market to lower prices a few cents, YOU ARE DRINKING THE CONSERVATIVE KOOLAID.

Yes McCain thats the answer, surge, surge, surge, drill, drill, drill. Pretty soon America will look just like Iraq.

the writer is going to be fired from mccain soon economy surge, paris, briteny , moses what is next. how low are you planning to go or just fire your writer. you are better off.

For "Wisest one of all" / You say WISE what a lie your facts are straight from the republican lier machine it runs continually on hot air thats all they have is lies lie s lies ,surge surge surge ,Bomb Bomb Bomb Iran and that thing that looks like something that has been warmed over hard to figure out must be reincarnation or second coming of a Bull Frog or a wrinkled up wart .

McCain is "out of touch" because he probably has Alzheimer's! If age has anything to do with it, it's quite likely! ha!

Please don't even get me started about people flip-flopping. Wasn't it Barack Obama who at first opposed offshore drilling and now supports it? If this idiot gets elected we're gonna have 4 or 8 years of poor decision making just like with the bush administration.

Put a cork in it you old stuffed shirt

time for you to go to pasture

Your no good for America

@Arkay, Mi

Bill Clinton a Democrat imposed the bans in the first place...check your facts!!!

Oh shut up John you sound like an idiot everytime you open your mouth where is your since of pride in yourself.

Scott in Phoenix, you crack me up. Next time you see a literate person, ask them to explain to you what a Marxist is...

Doesn't he turn 125 later this month?

McCain is The Out Of Touch poster child: can't use a computer, doesn't understand finance, offers his wife to the biker buffalo chip contest (and Mrs. Dumbo smiles and waves as the crowd yells for her to show her boobs), doesn't know that effective 1993 the country of Czechoslovakia failed to exist, ridicules proper tire inflation for improved gas efficiency (AAA even advises this), and can't tell you what he ate for breakfast this morning.

MCain's campaign thought they were so clever when they had tire guages made that said "Obama's Energy Plan" on them. They probably had a good laugh over that one. Unfortunately, the jokes on you, McCain. Check out these numbers-

The Bush Administration estimates that offshore drilling could produce up to 200,000 barrels of oil a day by about 2030. The problem is, we use over 20 million barrels of oil per day. That means that offshore drilling could eventually offset 1% of our total oil usage, and not until decades from now.

On the other hand, experts estimate that properly inflating your tires could increase fuel economy by an average of 3%. They say that getting a regular tune-up could increase fuel aconomy another 4%. So laugh it up, Johnny. Your unwise drill-happy plan only helps offset 1% of our usage. Obama's simple comment about inflating tires, which you got such a good laugh out of, was seven times more effective...

Of course you will backtrack now, and spin this to say that inflating your tires is a good idea. Hindsight is 20/20 buddy... But I bet you wish you hadn't had all of those tire guages made... makes you look pretty dumb right about now.

If we weren't so busy trying to pay for Dubya / McSame's failed military surge we might not need an economic one.

I guess, mccain isn't taking any questions from the press, after his camp put a 'Black reporter' and his 'White reporter friend 'out of a town hall meeting in Florida.

Maybe he missed the report on the Iraq government's huge surplus while we taxpayers are building them hotels by the airport. He predicted a fast victory and the oil paying for it. So much for his predictions. I'd like to hear the exact speech–how many times did he studder and misspeak?

lol that is coming out from Mr. Mccain that is funny. Paris my be better than you.

Have any of you liberal's supporting Obama ever read your party's platform? If so, you would know that the dems support equal rights. Therefore, how come most of you dems are mocking McCain because of his age (which is discrimination) but as soon as someone disagrees with the Messiah,aka Obama, that person is a discriminating based on race which you rant over? I don't understand this mentality.

To bad that no one seems to relate our oil independence to our National Security. Maybe they are afraid to mention that for some dumb reason. Obama does not understand that National Security stuff, and no one else seems to give a hoot.

Yeah old man, it's Obama that's the who's out of touch.

TYPO: here at how? did you mean here at HOME.

Where is all this nuclear waste going-Arizona-it's a BIG dessert. If John McCain wants nuclear power I say we send the green slime to Arizona. Oh wait-I lived in Arizona for 5 years...no recycle...no solar power 360 days of sunshine....no wind power......I say we build all the nuclear plants in Arizona. Have we drilled for oil in the Grand Canyon yet. Go McCain!!!!!

Robin A Blue – You're still sucking up the oxygen, so obviously McCain and the repubicans did something right!!!!

Johnning man, please when did you learn about the economy? I guess Jonhing learned about the economy in just 3 months. Ohh... where is McCain that talks about war..surge...and not supporting those who injured from wars?

Out of touch.....flip flop..flip flop.... flipperMc.

How is he closing the gap when he can't have a full house when he campaign?

Obama's out of touch about everything. That's because he has no experience or substance. He's not even qualified to be dog catcher. He's a joke.

Was for Hillary....now for McCain!

i call it out of touch, when a candidate to presidency tells me about britney spears and Paris hilton, while the whole country is suffering !

McCain is one of these rich billionaire, who does not have an idea what main stream american are going through and therefore, does not want to give them tax cut.

...by the way, why am i talking about McCain, he is not a subject...

gosh !

Has there ever been in the history of US presidential elections with anyone as less qualified or with as little achievements as Barrack Obama.

That's rich.. coming from McBrain-dead!! This guy is nothing buy an empty suit!!! He has become the senior citizen version of Dubya!! Let's have four more years of THAT because it's worked out so well for the last 8 years!!!

Republicans = Ignorance before Knowledge, Party before Country!!

SERIOUSLY?

This man is a JOKE......How can the GOP be this desperate? He just said yesterday while reading from a script a joke about putting his wife in the Ms. Buffalo Chips contest. Please stop him before the WORLD really knows that our judgement to pick a president is SAD...

Obama/08

McCain calling Obama out of touch is really rich! Mr. "$520 Ferragamo shoes", Mr. "my wife knows the only way to get around is by private plane", Mr. "Cindy could be the only one who is both First Lady and Miss Buffalo Chip", yeah – he's in touch with the average American. The Republican party policies have gotten into this economic mess and more of the same with McBush won't get us out. Vote OBAMA '08!

Wisest one of All August 6th, 2008 3:16 pm ET

The only thing that Hussein Nobama is in touch with are his fellow radical Muslim extremists who hate the US. Proven fact!

--

Post your so called facts please. You have five minutes.

Are you kidding me????? An economic surge????? The guy is funny. Get Paris to call him out again!

Out of touch???? Barbie out of touch??? Should delete that word surge out of the dicitionary, should delete Maverick, someone with that much money, is certainly out of touch. Shoes that cost $520??? And you say O is out of touch???? Hmmm, go home!!!!!

McCain is stepping in it on a daily basis. I can't wait for the debates.

Another point on McSurge. After his tantrum on tire pressure, does he really think that selling tires gauge with Obams' energy plan printed on them for $25.00 is going to get him money? How stupid are the Republicans?? My God, the Republicans are hopeless!

I don’t understand why is it that everything about this “Old Man” has to do with surge, Iraqi surge, drilling surge and now economic surge?? When surge is not even a solution.

Man Karl Rove would be proud. McCain should make a video..."A man who abandons his family when they are maimed and broken, A man who will abandon you when you are maimed and broken, John McCain he will use you and lose you. I'm john McCain and I approve this message!"

REPROCESSING means taking nuclear waste (from the middle east shipped to America, included) and reusing it. The process releases toxic poision (radiation). In 2006 Bush stoped all funds to clean up the Hanford Nuclear site which is over 200 acres and has tons of nuclear waste in desintgrateing containers. Waste from this site was linked to increase cancer rates of local residents and many Native Americans down river who ate large quanities of contaminated fish. Do you want nuclear waste traveling down your highways and railways? IN your water supplies? France has had many problems with contamination of river water thanks to AREVA, the company that is now building plants in the US. Yes, the company is French owned. Nuclear energy is NOT yet safe-by a long shot!

He can't take questions from the media because he does not know the answers. The only words this old geezer is drill, war, surge, and "my friends". Beyond that it taxes his brain too much. Speakering of out of touch – did anybody notice at the biker rally, he got stuck on saying how much o gallon of gas cost – what what is – 3,4, maybe 5 times. This man is America's NIGHTMARE!! Obama 08!!!!!!!!

Out of touch? McCain = Bush = More of the SAME.

Vote Mc Cain for an:

Economic Surge
Energy Surge
Housing Surge
Education Surge

SURGE, SURGE & MORE SURGE .... Seriously who are the fools supporting Mc Cain???

What do all the experts say about tire pressure? Who's out of touch.

Obama's out of touch??? Heck McCain, you can't even access the internet without a caretaker. Whose out of touch???

My friends, Senator McCain is more out of touch with on so many things until it is scary.

That McCain, he's quite a commedian – I'm glad he's taken his show on the road.

What's even scarrier is that there's some inane enough to believe what mccain is spewin'!!!

surge drill surge drill surge drill

whine whine whine

Where's the "experienced" leadership??

Wow – keep jobs here. Obama has been saying that for months to give tax breaks only to companies that keep jobs here. Seems like he is moving closer and closer to Obama on everything now.

Who told that off shore drilling will reduce gas prices? The same Big Oil companies will sell the gas at the current prices or more and pocket all the income for themselves. McCain will give them TAX BREAKS if he is elected.

So, McCain camp better shutup on DRILLING!

mcold, nobody is out of touch like you. infact you are not even in touch
tales from the crypt.

McCain does not remember the things he said 30 min after he said it, so how is Obama out of touch on anything; your wife use’s the computer for you… I’m not sure how that works but ok.

Why didn't the current president, an oil man, suggest this action a couple of years ago?

Answer: He didn't have Dick Cheney's or big oil's permission.

Texican...you have the IQ of a hook worm!

McCain is an old fool.

Only one out of touch is this idiot McSame!

... Imagine if Brittany Spears comes out tomorrow and says...

"The stupid vote generally outnumbers the smart vote. Look at what happened in the democratic primary. America suffers from celebrity fever. McCain is probably right."

What would the Nobama camp do????

McCain is out of touch with 21st Century America. He even openly admitted that he's just starting to learn about the Internet. The guy even stated he doesn't know much about the economy and will veto every beer. On his foreign policy, he said the President of Germany was Vladimir Putin. On top of that, off-shore drilling isn't going to solve the energy crisis. It's just going to make the world a worst place, causing people to drive more and kill the Earth alot faster and produce more greenhouse gases than ever. Did I forget to mention that even if off-shore drilling was permitted, it would take another decade or two and by then inflation and demand would have already caught up, causing gas to spike even higher. Lose, lose situation. We should be in a stage of innovation where vehicles can get higher gas mileage or run off of other alternative energy. The oil companies are keeping innovation in check. They know that most people are intelligent, that given a problem, we can solve it. Their scare tactics are just an insult to our intelligence and they prey on the fears of most that are just delusional. The reason for high gas prices is because we're on the brink of having a vehicle that no longer requires gasoline. If you had that information and were a greedy oil executive, wouldn't you want to raise gas prices too, to maximize your profits. I would.

McCain, don't make Barack put the video of you during the debates in which you said, "I don't know as much about the economy as I should." Gosh I hope Barack lacerates you again with another "pride in your ignorance" line. You need to get it through your thick skull that you are not going to win this. Period.

Stupid, senile old man with nothing to offer except lies and distortions.

Obama/Sebelius 2008/2012

Get ready for the war on energy, poverty, and God knows what else.

Gee, now it's economic surge...all his words are drill or surge!!

Sned this tired old lame senile man back to AZ for good...they may not want him anymore either!!!

Where are the intelligent American People?

When I read through the comments following this article, I see that 95% of you are attacking McCain's intelligence. While doing so, the vast majority of you fail to make a complete sentence anywhere in your argument.

This is supposed to make your point of view valid to me?

Did any of you notice, over the last several weeks, that rather than being here and campaigning, trying to convince the voters he is the best man for the job, Obama was out pandering to world leaders? He was trying to convince them that he will toe the UN line, and surrender America's sovereign identity once and for all.

Obama is more of an ego maniac than Hitler or Stalin. And I see that he has the following to push him into power. God help us all.

We are really a stupid nation. The media still asking the same
stupid question? Why isn't Obama doing better in the poles?
You know America has been in denial about race since slavery, they just found another way to enslave a whole people, schools, neighborhoods, facilities, jobs, etc and call it equal opportunity. I rather liked it better, at least it was out in the open. America is made up of ex-slaves (England) the worse of England migrated to the new land, they stole, killed and enslaved people of color to make America rich and think that God is going to bless America. There is one thing that they forgot. God has and did bless America, but, not because of
what they did, but because of who they did it too (Blacks) God does not bless a wrong.

I guess Obama is "out of touch" like oilman T. Boone Pickens who says you can't drill your way out of this....CLUELESS, MCSAME – a pawn for Big Oil...

I can't wait for the debates! Obama's going to crush McCain on the economy.

hold on a minute. Mcsenile made a point two weeks ago of saying that we have not succeeded, we are succeeding.

Now, its the surge succeeded. Which is it? If we have suceeded than we can start deploying our troops, right.

Is anybody dizzy with this man's lies. I am beginning to realize why the media let's him slide with his many, many misspeaks. It's because they can't keep up with all of them. It's almost every paragraph mcwar utters.

Is this a campaign strategy or is he just stuck-on-stupid?

McCain is 100% correct. Obama most certainly is out of touch. Only someone who is out of touch would promote such absurd socialist programs within this great country of ours.

Stealing money from those who work to give it to those who don't care enough about themselves to FIND A JOB is most definitely NOT the American Dream!!

Again sir, it's just BLABLABLA. as usual. You and Bush are the same kind... nothings new to say, or if it is it's lies again...Are you senile?or wath

this is doubly stupid – what is the evidence that the surge was a success? There is none. Reduced deaths are certainly good but that doesn't mean its the result of the surge! Maybe we just finally got the soldiers the armored vehicles they should have had from the beginning!

this adulterer has no business running for president!

Scott L: what evidence do you have to support your insistence that credit for gasoline price drops go to Bush? You could give credit to decreased demand because of people using less.

Is McCain talking about himself again ??!?!?! The 90 year old man has lost his mind

We are all Americans so why are we bashing a man like John McCain? He has given so much service to our country and has so much experience. You don't have to tear him down to make your cadidate look better! The enemy isn't seeing Democrats or Republicans. They just hate us all. Now please.....look at each man's plans and see which one you agree with more not his age or party affiliation. In my state we have a senator who will be 94 when he leaves office and the same people bashing McCain keep voting him in for one reason only. His party affiliation! How myoptic is that!

Look in the MIrror Johnny Boy. You, and every other republican, has been OUT OF TOUCH for the last 8 years.

What a tired old man with old ideas you are !

VOTE DEMOCRAT!

Would the "economic surge" maybe be the Iraqis sending billions dollars worth of oil profits back over here?

How is Obama out of touch, when he's the only one offering any ideas that look past the next campaign stop?

... and then proceeded to stick his keys into the microphone on stage to start his car up.

Just what exactly is an "economic surge"? Anyone?

I guess it must sound good to some folks, but not me. Until it is explained and defined, which they should have done before they threw the term into the wind to see if it flies, I'm chalking this one up as more verbal nonsense and double talk. Talk about shooting from the hip.

McCain, you have made up my mind over these past 2 weeks. I really didn't want to vote for someone short on international experience, but I really don't want to vote for someone short on education, either.

Of course McCain's not taking questions. Someone might ask him why he thinks it's a bad idea to make sure we have a plan for storing nuclear waste safely and securely before we create any more of it.

Here's McCain's hypothetical response:
Yeah, that's the problem with Obama. He wants to be careful about stuff like nuclear waste. What a wimp. I eat nuclear waste for breakfast.

I take exception to a person who identifies himself as " CWW from Arizona who is not a McCain supporter and who Denigrates AMERICANS WHO DO NOT AGREE with Obama's energy plan, as
STUPID . CALLING AMERICANS IN GENERAL AS STUPID for agreeing to McCains plan to build more nuclear power plants to boost energy production and ease the oil dependence of our country
can only come from a man who is describing himself....not only is he a moron but is so brain-impaired , he cannot see his nose, much less see what we as Americans see as challenging , difficult problems we are facing And our need for an Experienced NEW PRESIDENT . John McCain is the man for the job.
The nation of France has more Nuke plants than the U.S. and they are doing fine with them.

Mcbush flip flopped on offshore drilling.

If a McCain voter tells me that they are going to vote for McCain because he's a Republican and they would never vote for a Democrat, I could at least understand that. I would just think they were wrong.

But if they tell me they genuinely believe he is fit to be president and that he is the best person to put "behind the wheel," I would truly believe that person was deranged.

THE PLAN

A.. Back off and let those men who want to marry men, marry men.

B.. Allow those women who want to marry women, marry women.

C.. Allow those folks who want to abort their babies, abort their babies.

D.. In three generations, there will be no Democrats.

I love it when a plan comes together

Maybe Mckake's ex-wife who he abandoned bcse she was disfigured by an automobile accident would say that McInsane is in touch with ordinary pple. You son of the flog; proven to be a gold digger, a morron, elegant, hostile and never stop showing your ignorance; you want to tell american pple that the other guy is out of touch because he is smart, has a clear vision and shows good jugement needed for this nation to restore our dignity! I am not surprised by your fony attacks intended for same ignorants as you all repigs are. You just make sick.

Anyone who thinks Barack Obama is out of touch on energy policy either lacks the experience to lead this country or is not giving the American people the straight-talk they deserve.

Scott L- Yes the Dems have had the house for the last two years and everytime that they tried to move something forward the Republicans would spend more time mobilizing against it than actually trying to make it work. They know that their King will rain down his veto on anything that does not support his long long long long list of failures. The Dems have also had their hands full fixing this issues as well. And to boot, Oil was $26 when Dumbya took office.

Republicans have been in the pockets of big business for far too long. All of McCains hype of Obama raising taxes is way off key. Obama is offering more tax breaks to those of us who need them and can use them better. Even for business, especially small ones. McCain is turning out to be nothing more that a cry baby and finger pointer. At least Obama looks at things LONG TERM and looks at the WHOLE PICTURE. McCain rests with his attention span SHORT and SMALL.

the only surge I see is the ever increasing gap the the wealthy 1% are putting between them and the rest of the country.

The only thing that Hussein Nobama is in touch with are his fellow radical Muslim extremists who hate the US. Proven fact!

McCain's campaign bosses are keeping him from making inaccurate
comments as he is prone to do. They do not trust the words that come out of his mouth. And they do it because he becomes easily angered.

V ote Mccain we will have another bad Economy and we will all be in the poor house except Big Corporations and Oil Companies. Hard working Americans Mcain's policies is not good Vote Obama is the American people best change

The ghost of McCain's daddy. >>> Johnny would have been kicked out of the academy if his daddy was not an Admiral. His daddy got him in flight school over the more qualified graduates. His daddy rejected the offer of his release that Johnny had won with his 'good behaviour'. (Ever wondered 'why' McCain was pushed ahead of others for release?) His daddy recommended Johnny for a bravery medal, for spilling the beans from day one? His daddy got Johnny promotion to Captain over more senior candidates.
I wish Obama would have backed General Clark's true statement about McCain's lack of military leadership. Choosing what song to play when dropping bombs from 20,000 feet isn't it.
His attitudes about Russia and China are dangerous!
(Google McCain Russia G8).
RUSSIA AND CHINA should be debated in this campaign. They are bigger issues than Iraq and Afghanistan. What are Obama's thoughts on their place in the order of the world?

Obama hasn't got a clue as to what this country needs. I'm sick of his flip-ploping on all the issues. Why won't he debate McCain? We all know he is lousy at off-the-cuff answers. Too bad for him, he has to debate at least twice. VP's once..

He has great respect for his wife. He just as well encourage her to compete in the biker contest. As an Arizonan I know she's been getting her buffalo chips from some where else anyway. She had better hope the big prostitution bust here the other day doesn't have one of her credit card numbers.

I'll make you a deal McCain: learn how to use a pc, email, surf the web, inflate your tyres yourself, pump your own gas, live on the same an average voter has to get by with, pay the same mortgage, raise your own kids without a nanny and in short live like the average guy.

THEN you can say you are more in touch then Obama. If you succeed in doing all that and hold a decent normal job I will campaign for you to be elected president.

If you cannot do this, then just STFU about being in touch with the average voter.

Move along folks, nothing to see here, it's just McCain reveling in his ignorant confusion some more.

I do not hate McCain. I do not think he would be a good president! Not because he is old, because I am much older than he is. I still have all my faculties. He would not be a good president becaus e it would be impossible to drag him kicking and screaming into the 21st century. We are not the nation of do as we say or we will punish you. Tofay the younger generation thinks and rightfully so that it is better to talk to friends and enemies than it is to kill and be killed by them

One of these guys should be preaching about alternative energy...neither one of them really are. McCain now has oil and coal money, so he will never mention alternative energy, let alone create a catalyst for them to expand operations if he is elected...I thought he was the "maverick".

Then there is talk about "Clean Coal". There IS NO SUCH THING AS CLEAN COAL!! They were trying to create a plant that would store the Co2 underground safely. They project was 2-3 times over budget. The coal/oil companies would not complete it without government subsidies (our tax money) even though their profits are through the roof.

only 1 question CNN do you have the guts to post?
what do these lobbyist all have in common?
-Wayne Berman-Chevron
-Eric Burgeson-BP
-Frank Donatelli-EXXON
-Rebecca Anderson-SUNOCO
-Charlie Black-OCCIDENTAL PETRO.
-Nancy Pfotenhauer-KOCH IND.
and Randy Scheunemann-BP AMCO
to name a few.....
the punch line is....they are all working really hard to get their puppet John McCain elected. the joke is on us...John Mccain..the swap meet candidate...like he traded up on his wife Carol, he will offer himself up to the highest bidder...country first? that's almost as rich as your second wife John...you know Cindy "buffalo Chip", mistress/wife McCain.

McCain is OUT of touch!! He's all war and nothing else!!! My grandkids are NOT going into his forever draft!!! Peace is patriotic. Go Obama!!!

Another day, another bunch of McCain LIES.

McCain = McSame = McBush. NO to 4 more years of Bush.

I watched Anderson Coopers 360 last evening and saw John McCain basically reading what his staff wrote for him on "his" energy plan.
It just made him look like he did not have a clue. He literally read the speech looking up only a few times but you could tell he was reading the whole thing. I have always admired John McCain but that admiration has turned into wondering if this guy is for real!!

That's a laugh.

Does he really think we're buying this?

Go away McBush

Thanks for bashing and trashing Hillary.

We now must vote for McCain just to reclaim the democratic process that the Media and the DNC subverted.

I warned the paid haters blogging for Obama and the biased media that kept on posting their divisive filthy, vulgar, vile, vitriolic insults… IT WOULD BACKFIRE IN THE END.

People you trash, bash, insult, demean, ridicule and dismiss will generally NOT vote for you in the end. (the Clintons are party loyalists and WILL do it for the good of the party)

Obama played the race card of hatred and inflamed racial divides and intra-party hatred and division.

While pretending to be the hope of change and the great divider.

WE WILL WE WILL TEACH YOU
WE WILL WE WILL TEACH YOU
R E S P E C T

That's right Grampy, avoid the media since you can't get anything right or accurate without your cue cards and your plastic wife Cindy beside you rehearsing your same tired, old script. Even wih all that help you still struggle to communicate anything resembling coherent – (Kind of like Bush, wouldn't you say?). And remember, we're a nation of whiners still waiting to hear any solutions from you on the economy, stupid!

Maybe John and Cindy should jet off to one of their seven homes for some cake and to throw back a few beers with George, Laura, Dick and Lynn. Isn't that what you were doing during hurricane Katrina while all the lowly people has it so good ? (Thank you, Barbara Bush)
Maybe a little shopping with Condi for another pair of $500 Ferragamo shoes?

Who's out of touch?! You wouldn't know the everyday, common, ordinary needs of the people if you pooped it out in your adult diaper. And no, showing up at a motorcycle rally doesn't count, dipstick!

I have no other choice but McCain- thanks to the strategy of forcing Obama on the party faithful:

Mc Cain has come back with this Surge talk Again ..

What is Mc Cain's Plan Anyone?? .. No Specifics!!! .. Who are these fools voting for Mc Cain???

A Noun, A verb & The Surge .. LMFAO

Are you kidding me? McStupid has the audacity to call Obama 'out of touch'!!! Are you kidding me!?!?! He can't even speak without being fed talking points. This solidifies the fact that republicans believe if they say something (regardless if its true or not) their audience will believe it. If this is not the most ludicris statement of the season, I don't know what is.

McUGly is the candidate that is so out of touch and it is unbelieveable that he is the only candidate the republican party can come up with to represent them. That's all they have, and even he doesn't qualify.

Obama '08/'12

I warned the paid haters blogging for Obama and the biased media that kept on posting their divisive filthy, vulgar, vile, vitriolic insults... IT WOULD BACKFIRE IN THE END.

People you trash, bash, insult, demean, ridicule and dismiss will generally NOT vote for you in the end. (the Clintons are party loyalists and WILL do it for the good of the party)

Obama played the race card of hatred and inflamed racial divides and intra-party hatred and division.

While pretending to be the hope of change and the great divider.

WE WILL WE WILL TEACH YOU
WE WILL WE WILL TEACH YOU
R E S P E C T

corporate giants rake in eight years of welfare, and this is the best man they can buy?

are they stingy, complacent, stupid, or all three?

Many moderates and conservative distrust Obama's ability to grow the economy–at the same time he plans to increase taxes on the businesses and business owners who are the catalysts of the economy.

Many (conservatives/moderates) see this as just a ploy to create somekind of poorly understood redistribution of wealth–the details of which boggle economic experts who cannot predict the outcome of an Obama Presidency–should that occur.

If Obama somehow gets elected–there will sure be a lot of folks lined up to say "we told you so". Clearly–some of his ideas could make things much worse–particularly if he is stupid enough to get us embroiled to a greater degree in Afghanistan without increased fiscal/human resources and commitment from our NATO allies. The Russians already learned that lesson–Obama must not have done well in Post War History of Europe.

Rational discussion and reason are beyond the intellectual capabilities of most bloggers here–my 2 cents.

CNN–WHY are you running a lead article on Obama's Muslim liaison? You have become worse than Fox News.

We already know all your commentators (Campbell Brown, Lou Dobbs, Anderson Cooper) are pro-McCain, and you are just making it easier for the right-wing Neo-Cons to have an easy forum from which to spew their Xenophonic hatred.

McWar you are the one out of touch except for those dependable Depends .
Notice how he has his eyes on Paris he must get a BANG out of looking at Paris the old geezer thinks he is coming of age well he has that cORRECT OMG how can you blame Paris bet she wouldn't waste her spit on him.
Move McWAr out its out with the old geezer McBush politics and in with the new educated ,intelligent Obama .

Of Course Obama is Out of Touch, he is living in some sort of La-La Land in some sort of a fairytale.

Just look at the poll Obamabots your man is way down in the polls for a democrate nominee who was suppose to blow us away with the wow factor it is pretty pathetic.

That is what the DNC, the RBC, the superdelegates and the losers such as Brazile, Reed, Pelosi and Dean did when they selected Obama instead of permitting the citizens to Elect H.R. Clinton.
They are the Destroyers of the Democratic Party...

As Donna Brazile, the Democratic party will have to be destroyed before it can be rebuilt.

Ha these Republicans are lost Mcshame the one who confessed not to know anything about about the Economy not Obama Mcshame give it up we don't Believe you.

Here are some thoughts:

The AAA has said that properly inflated tires can save people up to $.12 a gallon RIGHT NOW. Offshore drilling is expected to save $.04 a gallon AFTER ten years. So you figure it out people.

Also, how about proposing that if the oil companies drill off the shores of the US that they sell that oil in the US. Wait, that was proposed and the Republicans said no. That is because the oil companies will be selling that oil mainly to China.

How about giving the oil companies the leases to drill off shore and if they don't use them in a year then they lose that right. Wait, that was proposed and the Republicans said no to that also.

Do your research people and realize that this is just another wedge issue that the Republicans want to use to appeal to you emotionally. It makes NO LOGICAL SENSE. Vote with your head and not just your heart.

Out of touch? This turkeys out of his MIND!

change, Change, CHANGE!

Get these republican JERKS out of office!

Senator McCain we hear you loud and clear. Proud to be on your side now. PUMA

Sen McCain need to change. HE looks old and he holds his right arm like something is wrong with it or in a brace. where will he build his nuclear plants in Arizona. Off shore drilling is fine if you don't have a shore to drill off. Let drill off shore, when? the oil in Alaska is own or lease by BP Oil that ship is to Japan to be refined then being is back to America because we don't have the refinery to make gas, this a joke America independance oil company need to uncap some of their oil fields now and then let see what happen then. Gas prices are staring to come downbut no more oil is being product but the price are still to high. Stop spending America money on Iraq they have a surpus of money 80 Billion dollar as of today let them pay for change. When will America wake up and smell the coffee brewing. Go Obama

Nuclear power plants in 40 states?. Hmmm, good luck to that!! He can't even accept nuke waste in Arizona let alone other states. Where will he dump those waste if in fact gets implemented when he wins?

All the early advantages were heaped on Obama- from the Media, the pundits the DNC and the celebrities.

HATING ON HILLARY AND LOVING ON OBAMA WAS SO MUCH FUN.

They piled on Hillary to knock her out of the race.

Now we are stuck with Obama.

NEVER interfere with the right of the voters to vote and to be counted.

This is the sad result.

A loser left wing candidate AND a divided party.

EVEN HILLARY MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SAVE US NOW.

McCain is the one out of touch he has proven that he does not take his car in for repairs, tire changes or he would know that your tire pressure needs to be at the specified pressure so that you get good gas mileage and also for the wear and tear on the tires.Anyone that has had to get any work done would know these facts.And he does not take questions because he does not have the answers.He has reverted back to a second childhood he just doesn't it yet,and if he hasn't the people he has doing his ads for have taken leave of their senses.They are the ones out of touch.

Hey ScottL and all the rest of you who say McCain has a good energy plan. OFFSHORE OIL DRILLING WILL NOT LOWER GAS PRICES FOR TEN YEARS AFTER IT IS BEGUN!!!!! Not to mention it will take close to 5 years to get the drilling up and running IF the crews and equipment can be found. This is a known fact any expert will back up. Also the oil companies (even with HUGE profits) claim they have a shortage of crews and equipment. So...who will do this drilling and with what? You have all been suckered in by McCains pandering, thinking this offshore drilling will help. Sure it will...in the year 2020 your gas will go down about 3 cents a gallon. Try looking beyond your party lines people and just take in the facts. Wouldn't that be a nice change!

What are you afraid of McSame? Why won't you take questions from the media? You have alot to answer for. All last week you made jokes at Obama's expense and now you expect people to take you seriously?? You are a joke!

ANYBODY WHO SUPPORTS MCCAIN IS A COMPLETE IDOT. I DON'T CARE HOW MUCH MONEY YOU MAKE. THE GUY HAS BEEN IN CONGRESS FOR 26 YEARS AND HAS THE NERVE TO EXPECT INTELLIGENT PEOPLE TO THINK HE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH OUR CURRENT PROBLEMS.

YOU'RE ALL FOOLS FOR BACKING THIS SENILE OLD CREEP! GET A LIFE, WILL YOU! STOP BEING STUPID. BEING STUPID IS WHAT HAS GOTTEN AMERICA IN THIS SITUATION IN THE FIRST PLACE. STUPIDITY ELECTED GEORGE BUSH IN 2000 AND 2004!

WISE UP, PEOPLE! VOTE OBAMA!!!!!

What I find revealing is that McCain has refused to answer reporters questions for three days.

"Ol Shoot From the Hip Maverick" seems to have been told to shut up.

His stumbling, rambling comments at Sturgis make me think he shouldn't "shoot from the hip" anymore. Too many misses.

This proves that B.Hussein O. is not a Muslum. We can expect a few more million of voters joining him. Muslums now will join McCain. Every American knows that Muslums love mcCain. Why else would they look angerly at B.Hussein O. and Kiss McCain. My wife is knetting me a B. Hussein O. Sweater.

This is the man that ADMITTED twice that he doesn't understand the economy. He has the NERVE to bring up the surge(his ONLY platform) during a speech about the economy.

John McCain: A Noun, A Verb, and the "Surge"

WHY WON"T THE MEDIA CALL HIM OUT ON HIS LIES??

McCain keeps saying Obama plans on raising taxes, why won't the media do a fact check and show that Obama will actually lower taxes more than McCain for the vast majority of Americans.. the only people that benefit more from McCain's plan are the super rich.

McCain offers the same path America is on. The same path to more war, secretive meetings with big oil and corporations, scandals, tax breaks for the rich, more income disparity between the rich and poor, more jobs overseas, more corruption in the Justice Department and EPA, more lobbyist favors and payouts, and on and on.

America has been damaged bad by the Bush era and I'm afraid McCain only takes us down that same path.

Lets see. McCrazy was against drilling. Then Hess Oil gave him $285K. Now he says lets drill TODAY. Anyone voting for McCrazy is ADDICTED 2 STUPID.

McCain said Wednesday that Obama was “out of touch.”McAttack you Stuck on make believe and Stupidity .... so are you Mike Boston**You are so busy attacking Senator Obama you are throwing sh_t out there to see what happen ..well you are going to step in it .you are tooooo Old to play games you and your attack dogs have turn this Campaign Season into a Cartoon( Felix the Cat Bag of Tricks) .This will come back to Haunt you......Old White Hair Wrinkle Man .......Do you realize what kind of Contest you enter your Wife into .....you need to check it out alone with other things before you open that old sour trap of yours You are really begaining to smell like Waste

Scott L stop believeing McCain talking points. If you seriously believe Bush lifting the federal ban lowered gas prices you are an idiot. Gas prices went down because american stayed home over the summer instead of going on vacation, flew less flights and drove less. Meaning less demand and more supply. Which means lower gas prices for americans.

What you lazy people don't want to realize is if we want gas prices to come down all we have to do is use less gas. Meaning thing like dare I say proper maintenance of cars, proper tire pressure and the biggest one drive slower.

But you don't want to hear that because we are americans and have the right to live in excess.

McCain's solution to the energy crisis is to increase the number of nuclear plants. He gave this speech while he was a Fermilab 2. Every wonder why he didn't do this at Fermilab 1? Well, it turns out that Lab 1 had a little meltdown problem back in the 1960s. McCain is about as clueless as it gets.

This one is way too easy. mccain mccain mccain!!! People vote DEMOCRAT all the way. PUMAS how if you are true DEMOCRATS could even think about voiting for mccain.

Obama is out of touch with the ordinary american citizen on all issues. He is in it for himself and will say anything to get elected. Once elected he will do whatever he wants regardless of his campaign promises. We got a preview of that with the primaries along with his underhanded Chicago style Politics. I am voting McCain just to keep this Obama from ruining this country worse than Bush did. Leftist extremists are just as bad as extremists from the right if not worse. Obama is a leftist extremist.

Regular maintenance on cars raises efficiency 4%, properly inflating your tires raises it 3%. I loved when McCain handed out the tire gauges because I knew it would bite him in the brain! Almost as good as him saying Washington's been out of touch for 30 years without remembering he's been there for 25 of them! We can't get too confident, though. This nation did elect George W...TWICE!

This just in, McCain sends telegram to US, during a rail stop, that Obama is out of touch with modern life.

You won't solve this problem by checking the air in your tires Obama! Wake up to the nonsence people. Obama is so inexperienced that his first thought advocates Americans checking their tire pressure!! WOW! That's gotta hurt you kool-aid kids.

Obama is out of touch on virtually everything.

McCain:
I'm king of the world, I just learned how to use a manual typewriter.

Yippeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Hahahaha!!! This is funny. Just another reminder of how stupid McMoron is.

Super D your obviously a person who has money. But lacking tact and integrity.

McCain says this after visiting a nuclear sight that almost suffered near melt downs in recent history and did back in the 60's? has McKeatingFive forgotten the gas tax holiday, the 300 million for a new battery? Or the millions he received from oil companies...oh yeah and the Big oil company lobyist has has on his staff of advisores?

if, or 'when' McCain calls for a second splurge in Iraq, would that still mean the first one was a success? hmmm?
Even he calls it a 'precarious success' ; which rhymes with 'Petreus success'!

GOP =

G rumpy
O ld
P oliticians

That's McCain on a stick: no details and refuses to take questions.

Hire Paris Hilton!

Sorry not on this topic but why is NO ONE talking about Obama wanting to give Florida and Mich. full votes in the convention?!
When he was trying to win the nomination he said they should be punished for not following the rules, yet now that he has the Democratic leadership wrapped around his finger, now he calls for full voting rights for those states!

Ultimate flip-flop, pandering, I have seen yet!!!

I hope they five the full rights to Florida and Mich. and that they vote HILLARY!.

How can he be out of touch? Where was McCaine for the last 25 years in the Senate? He had the chance to be independent on oil. Why all of a sudden he wants to be?Hmmmmm?

Wait a minute, am I the only one that John McCain scares to death?
I am becoming more worried about him than these elections.

read the article where he says Obama is confused:
He says Obama voted for Off Shore drilling and now Obama is against it...

But McCain also said in the same article that he Vote against the same Off Shore drilling at the time Obama voted for it and now he[McCain] is for Off Shore drilling...

AND he calls Obama confused? Is McCain so dazzed and confused that he doesn't even know what confused is? I'm scared, America...I feel bad for McCain!

Talk about out of touch! It is embarrasing to see him read his speeches. If he can not see the difference between him and Obama, he needs to sit down and see the reruns. The republicans should be ashame if this is the best they have.

i love it when people compare Obama to Jimmy Carter. Jimmy Carter was actually the last honest president, who attempted to curtail our greed and slow inflation. AND if he had succeded the $ might actually be worth a $ now. AND by the way, 15 billion a month on a fixed war is whats affecting the economy.

Sad thing is, people are going to vote for this numbskull. McSame will ruin this country by furthering the Bush agenda

I would love to hear an explanation about this. Obama wants to increas miminum wage. In what way will this help keep jobs hear.

Pls. answer.

My new favorite Obama quote regarding McCain's energy policy:

"that's a debate I'm happy to have. Because Senator McCain's energy plan reads like an early Christmas list for oil and gas lobbyists. And it's no wonder — because many of his top advisers are former oil and gas lobbyists."

Nuff said.

I wonder what the reaction would be if Obama described McCain as "out of touch". It would be construed as an attack on his age. Any legitimate criticism of McCain's verbal gaffes could be twisted into an attack on his age.

Personally, I wondering about McCain. He coming across as arrogant and condescending now. He shows no respect to his opponent.

Isn't that attitude already in the White House right now?

Obama isn't out of touch – he's just one big flip-flopper – what does he really stand for? His flip-flops are to score points with the voters – he changes his tune depending on the prevailing collective consensus. Obama amounts to a wobbly wannabe.

Drill-Drill-Drill.Surge-Surge-Surge.A good start for Mccain would be to Purge-Purge-Purge all the lobbyist who advise his campaign!

Obama isn't talking about countries that DON'T exist anymore. Who's out of touch?

Go away WOG, get some rest.

Obama "Out of Touch"...you can't be serious McCain.

Coming from a person who doesn't know how to email or use the internet...who thought a gas tax holiday (MAYBE an $40) a month would help Americans during this economic crises and thinks the answer to gender discrimination in the workplace is not equal pay for women but that women need more training....

Spare me McCain...

Matt NE. Rich voters not smart. Please tell Mcain he can bury the radioactive waste in your back yard. And tom B .... Did you stop listening at inflate yor tires. You guys are ignorant . Half thoughts avail us nothing. No wonder we have Bush. TSK TSK.

We should have a drilling surge!

This is ridiculous MY Friends . Mccain has done nothing to help this economic slide , that began over 7years ago...........Did the haevens open........down came the light.....and McCain found the answer?? WE ARE TIRED OF 30 YEAR LONG POLITICIANS WHO TALK TOUGH during elections only. Call themselves Mavericks ...get your frivilous votes and then DO NOTHING !!! In four years the endless cycle starts all over again. He has had his chance in WASHINGTON...HE has been divisive in voting against the Martin Luther King National Holiday, He has the Keating 5 under his belt, He has sold out his MAVERICK position to special interests. Frankly at 71 he lacks the stamina to face two wars , HUGE Global Economic Issues, and a falling US Economy. We cannot waste the election on personal attacks and empty solutions. We need a new ERA in American Politics

Nothing like a little lying and distortion coupled with some "fear, smear and mock" of Obama by McLame to let the voters know where he stands on getting the new order cranked up.
Jeez, is this McLame for real or is he going senile right before our eyes? Either way if McLame does manage by some quirk to get elected we're gonna be screwed!

PS: A vote for McLame is a terrible thing to waste...

Again,........ whatever Yoda (Star Wars)..........tired I Am.

David Goldman,Los Angeles, CA....too funny!

Scott L,

If Bush could bring the gas prices just by lifting fedral ban on offshore drilling, why didn't he do it earlier? He didn't want to slow down the flow of money into the coffers of his rich oil friends, eh?

Wow, When will the liberals learn to have some respect....McSame, McBush, McSurge, etc aren't his name. How many McCain supporters do you see calling Obama names even though we have the opportunity. At least show some respect for a man who's given his entire life to protect you and try to make your life easier. You don't have to like, him you just have to show him some respect.

Yep- – -Carrying on the Bush Policy of lie, lie lie and pretty soon they will beleive you. Not anymore peeps. Kick this guy to the curb.

Iraq has $80 billion, sitting in the bank and we are paying for the reconstruction- -remember shrub saying that Iraq would pay for it whith their oil sales? Lying sack of _ _ _ _! Where is the 8 bilion they LOST in IRAQ? How do you LOSE 8 billions dollars???!!! You could see that much money from space

McCain is more out of touch and his old style politics really is not what the country needs. American technology and style of politics is quickly becoming secondary to other powers of the world. The old way of doing things will no longer work.

Republican/Conservatives controlled this country from 2000 to 2006. The crap has hit the fan. All the failed policies (economic, energy,foriegn...you name it) have fallen at the footstep of the adminisration and congress who pushed it. The Republican party is pretty much at the graveyard waiting to get buried in the ground. The far right politics are becoming un-american.

Obama is far from an angel, and in some cases may be nieve to certain situations. But he offers a fresh view to the old problems and he's been out spoken on many key issues. Just like McCain is lock step with bush, Obama seems to have the people on his side. Its funny that the big powers like oil and walmart feel threatened by his election. Especially due to walmart warning of union issues. The people want their country back, but McCain the "so called maverick" is not an option.

People can sing experience to the cows come home but look where experience put us the last 8 years.

Obama? maybe but not a republican please!

"God help our Country and the people that love it"

When Kerry ran for president, the GOPers were handing out flipflops....now they are handing out tire gauges....Hey, funny is funny and I think it's hilarious. Not only did the Democrats lose their spines, but they also lost their senses of humor!

Sorry, I just can't vote for a leftest, die-hard Marxist with no experience running anything other than his mouth and with dubious Islamic ties.

Obama's out of touch!!!

GIMME A BREAK MC CAIN!

How about forfeiting your $1900+/month SS payment? Do you really need it?
GET IN TOUCH – the country's having some hard times!

The WOG is at it again.

Mcain you are truly laughable what ever happen to mccains 300 millon dollar car battery, well mcbush at least obamas plans are not just DRILL HERE, DRILL THERE, DRILL EVERYWHERE NOW at least he has other policies more than i can say for you !!!

ANyone who thinks that it's Obama who is the one out of touch is too stupid to vote.

Very interesting how McCain is not taking questions from the media. He wants to throw stuff out there and not have to be held accountable for the lies. He has gone beyond misrepresenting Sen Obama's economic plan to out right lying. This was a complaint Mit Romney had about him. He has no plan people. That is pretty clear. He just makes general statements with no specifics then plays highschool games and pranks.. grow up

Well Tom, it does help.

God forbid Americans actually get off their couch and help be a part of the solution, rather than sitting back waiting for a higher-up to do it for them. We have to do our part.

MCCAIN has 9 houses and he thinks he is in touch with Americans also BARBIE how much has she charged on the cards this month ??

Time for a new generation to lead America in the new century.

We can not afford another repubs administration. No more repubs this year.

Democrats will get America back on track.

Obama 08/12.

I fall asleep everytime this man speaks. I'm am so tired of his negative politics. He has nothing to offer this country but the same past 8 years. Time to move forward.

Mckain is senile and to make it worse a big liar! He needs to go to a retirement home once and for all.

This coming from the man who:
1. Wears $520 designer shoes
2. His wife says that the only way to get around AZ is by plane
3. Touts his family values but left his disabled wife to chase skirts

This many is a joke. Anyone who is so desperate for a large group event that he did not even do the research to find out that he "Beauty Contest" that he volunteered his wife for was degrading to women should be ridiculed and shunned, certainly not be running for the highest office of the US.

As long as the waste from these new nuclear power plants McCain's proposing gets stored in AZ, I'm all for his plan.

McWar adn Empty-Suit are both very much in touch – with Big Oil lobbyists! And when all of Empty-Suit's lobby donations are revealed we will see how much the same they are.

vote McWar for politics as usual
vote Empty-Suit for politics as usual

He is not out of touch, You this "wrinkly, white-haired guy" is. Shame on you and RNC.

This is getting old McCain... bash Obama and don't offer your own solution. Tell me why I should vote for you. I would like your supporters to do the same. Here are your reasons: NONE! Vote McCain you are a supreme idiot. Come November will be the end of the road for you buddy.

Did he really slide the surge in, while talking about the economy?!?!

McSimpson is the one out of touch on everything (ie energy, war, economy, computer, youth etc.)

...like the time I caught the ferry over to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for my shoe, so, I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. Give me five bees for a quarter, you’d say. Now where were we? Oh yeah - the important thing was that I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time. They didn’t have white onions because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones...

Obama's out of touch??? Just making that statement shows how far out of reality Sen. McSame truly is. The man is AGAINST energy conservation, right here, right now... He endorses tax cuts (a good thing) for only the very wealthy (a very BAD thing), he's clueless about technology, which already is the backbone of our knowledge-based economy... and he didn't have the judgment to see an unnecessary war that has essentially bankrupted our country. We no longer have any money for education, infrastructure, healthcare for all.....
And he says that Obama is out of touch. He's absolutely losing his marbles.

Any one who voted for Bush have not right to whine, I am sure all those whinner voted for bush in 2000 and 2004 and most of them will vote for Mccain again if Mccain gets elected by accident, those who vote for him do not have a right to live they are digrace to humanity.

It's cool... I bought a tire gauge this morning so I don't have to buy gas anymore. Sadly all my tires were properly inflated (because I maintain my vehicle)... so it does me no good.

Hey, can we bring the oatmeal out for John. Maybe with his mouth full he'll stop talking.

O/08

I still don't understand how McCain is in the "pocket" of Big Oil.

McCain opposed the bill that gave taxbreaks to the oil companies. Obama voted for the bill that gave taxbreaks to the oil companies.

Actions speak louder than words and Obama's actions suggest that if anyone is supporting Big Oil, he is. Maybe that's why he is dragging his feet on any reasonable energy policy, so he can keep the price of gas and oil high?

Tell me who's out of touch when you mock what many experts have said will help Americans save some money at the pump and that is the tire gauge mockery of Obama. I'm tired and extremely pissed off at the crap that comes out of this guy's mouth. I increasingly admire Obama and his campaign including his surrogates for having the temperament to stand this crap because I don't have the patience for the garbage that this guy says. The most annoying part is that he promised to run a better campaign than this and I believed him too because I've always thought in the back of my mind that McCain was probably the only Republican I can compromise and vote for. I wonder what happened to him because this certainly isn't the McCain we all knew and in many cases admired for his integrity and honesty

Wow, the only way McCain can understand economics is to equate it to war. Now, along with all the other wars, we have a war on the economy and there is already a need for a surge.

Economic Surge. Is he for real? Who is writing this man stuff. I know we don't know who Obama is but we certainly know he is going to give us. We can't be seious about electing this man. His whole campaign simply says yes I am terrible but what if Obama is worse. Maybe Obama will turn us into a third world country. Obama might be a terrorist. Obama might be a muslim. Look all the other nations like him he cannot be and that means he doesn't put america first. What if he locks up all the white people. And basically it is going to work again.

How long are we going to let Republicans hold fear, false patriotism over our heads and then watched them sell out the country to big oil, kill our babies for more oil, and place our future in the hand of corporate america who coicidently is funding they campaigns. Please I beg you don't let this happen again over ridiculous accusations.

I know he looks differently, he talks different, and he might not be baseball and apple pie. But america is also basketbal and sweet potato pie, soccer and frito pies and in some small cases bean pies.

I wish they both could win. One to scare the begeesus out of Iran, and the other to negotiate with them. Too bad we have to make a choice.

I'm going for Obama all th e way. We've tried the stick, it didn't work.

The only person "out of touch" in this presidential race IS MCCAIN HIMSELF.

Wow. You Obama supporters are really very...emotional...aren't you? Keep blogging, keep typing McSame, McShame, "Judas Lieberman", etc. If there's anything that characterizes you Obama supporters, though, it's lack of maturity and really sad levels of (unjustified) intellectual arrogance.

The election is going to be close, but keep telling yourselves that it won't be if it makes you feel better. But Obama DOES have weaknesses, and he DOES flip-flop as much as McCain, and he WILL say ANYTHING to get elected.

By pretty much all accounts, given his lack of actually DOING anything, he meets the definition of a "all show, no go" politician. Sadly, there are so many of you who are soundbyte driven that this is exactly the kind of person you have the attention span for...or put another way, a person like this is lucky to have people who are so soundbyte oriented.

I've said this before...I actually LIKE a lot of what he says (although to think he's even remotely towards the middle rather than far left is ludicrous) but he hasn't actually DONE much, and Presidents need to be able to get things done. Instead, he has a pattern of playing it safe, voting "present" rather than taking a stand, flip-flopping JUST AS MUCH AS MCCAIN, etc.

How McCain can ever call anyone out of touch is beyond reason.

McCain is trying to label Obama before he gets labeled. McCain is the one out of touch here. Witness his 'overwhelming' crowds he plays to when they have an option of going to see him. What does he draw? Very few.....

And, has anyone else noticed that McCain goes out of his way to take questions by anyone who might make him look stupid, challenge him, or in any way confront him? It has gotten to the point where he will take no questions at all anymore since he looks the fool and clown in responding.

Typical Republican....my way or the highway...

Get a clue, McCain.

That's going to be a tough line to sell Mr McCain considering the fact that you mock Obama for telling people to make sure the'r tires are inflated which is hat AAA and every other agency says. I'm sure Cindy keeps the tires properly inflated on yher private jet.

Hes been in the senate for 25 years (experience) people please how can this man call anyone out of touch. This man is a joke with no solutions because he doesnt have any look at the mess this country is in, he is part of the problem not the solution old bs in the new 21st century. How can anyone put this country in peril again!!!!!! Please we cannot allow this to happen.

OBAMA 08

Out of touch? With brilliant 'inflating your tires' and 'campaigning in all 57 states' comments and articulating 'UHHHHH' and 'Bush Lied' in every speech, Dumbama is 'in touch' with most libs.

Is this the same John McCain who just yesterday flat out lied about his vote on last year's the energy bill? That John McCain – the one who said Obama sided with the oil companies, while he voted AGAINST the bill. That is what he said.

The truth. McCain did not vote against the bill, period. It's a BALD FACED LIE. He simply failed to vote – as usual. McCain has not voted on any energy legislation since 2006, on any environmental legislation since 2005, an any agricultural legislation since 2002, on only one educational legislation since 2005, on legislation regarding seniors and social security since 2006, on only 1 of the last 11 bills regarding poverty, on transportation legislation since 2005, on veterans legislation since 2006, and has voted on only 7 of the last 16 defense bills and only 10 of the last 42 bills regarding business and consumers.

In fact, Senator AWOL has missed 3/4 of all Senate votes going back almost 2 years. Barack Obama has voted over 40% of the time during that period despite being in a much more competitive primary and having to build his campaign structure from the ground up.

Economic surge? Really?

MCCAIN AND THE REPUBLICRATS KEEP SAYING THE SURGE WORKED, BUT WHY DOES THAT MATTER IN A WAR WITH THE WRONG COUNTRY OVER THE WRONG THING..........

MCCAIN IS A 760 YEAR OLD MAN MARRIED TO MONEY, WITH CHILDREN WHO GREW UP WITH MONEY, HE GREW UP IN AN ERROR EXTREMELY DIFFERENT THAN TODAY .. WITH IDEOLOGIES OF THE PAST..... HE HAS BEEN PUT OUT ON A LIMB BY A PRTY THAT DOES NOT RESPECT HIM.. AT A TIME WHEN REPUBLICANS SHOULD BE BLAMED FOR ALL THE PROBLEMS OF TODAY... HE IS THEIR SACRIFICIAL LAMB......... THEY KNOW HE CAN'T WIN.......... BUT HE THINKS HE CAN..........

RUNNING FOR A PARTY THAT DOESN'T WANT YOU......... THAT'S OUT OF TOUCH...........

POST THIS.......

You know I can not wait till Sen Mc Cains campaign for the radical right falls flat on its nasty hate filled face. Then maybe the rest of us true republicans can come back in and pick up the pieces and rebuild our respectable party and get rid of these losers. I hope the Hilton's take some of there fortune and contribute to the Obama campaign and down ticket dems as punishment for The Mc Cain campaign wasting there donations they had to him. Hell, Paris has enough money on her own she should run a side campaign in concert with Sen Obama. I hope for the sake of America that this man never see's the inside of the oval office. It is absolutely terrifying!

Obama/???? 08 Yes We Can

MCBush can't even use a computer and Obama is out of touch?

How would John McCain know who is out of touch? That's a joke.

I'm amazed how people get all out of breath about nonsense and can't be bothered with substance.

how can Osama accuse people of making fun of tire gages, when that is his only energy solution besides driving less and layering your clothes..OH..i forgot –all poor people get $1000 reparations from big oil...CHANGE we can believe in–SOCIALISM

We haven't heard one word about what McSame IS in touch with yet!!

So, it appears to me that he gets a briefing on what his talking points are and just throws it out there. DOH!

OBAMA '08

So true McCain!! You go boy!!!

It must be a shame...you Obamabots must be soooo upset that your god isn't up in the polls. Hilary warned everyone....unelectable....that's what Obama is...unelectable...that's what he is....

I would like to know where McCain found that Obama doesn't want to reprocess spend nuclear fission fuel? I agree that nuclear fission needs to be a part of our current energy usage, but where is the proposal to have money for fusion research? Where is the money for advancing solar panels, wind power, geothermal and tide generators? We need all of that!

Is he still talking about Obama? There's the word 'surge' again. Oh goodness . . . he wants to use surge to fix the economy. Another day for McCain lost in the rubbish.

McCain's batteries needs to be changed again !

So instead of "Bomb, bomb, bomb... bomb bomb Iran," he's retooled his message to:

"Flood, flood, flood... flood flood US," with a slick of oil, and drums of nuclear waste. Because... he's so in touch with the needs of humanity. This is going to sound really harsh, but... now I know why older people (or as his new friend Paris likes to put it, wrinkly white-haired guys...) want McCain. Older people really don't care how we leave the world for our children. They just want to live it up now, and leave the mess for the kids to figure out. Not all old people, but obviously the majority of them. Honestly, that's what this is all about. Who cares about our future, and who only cares about right now.

I'm Obama's biggest fan! I can't stop talking about him! I love him more than Brittany Spears!

No questions from the Press for the third day this week???? Hummm, I guess when you don't take questions from the press, one doesn't have to remember what one said just fifteen minutes ago, or yesterday, or (God forbid) last week...can't wait for the debates, then we'll see the real Johnny McSame.

all mccain ants to do is dril, drill, drill, drill! he has been paid off $1.3 million by oil companies! nuf said!

If John McCain is such a patriot and loves his country so much, where's his flag pin on his lapel? He doesn't even have one on in the picture to this article. This man is so out of touch, and has absolutely nothing to offer. I want a president who leads, not one who just points fingers.

well mccain is dumb anyways lets stop talking about mcshame and get back to work

So what has Obama said that makes McCain say he (Obama) is going to raise taxes on investments and small business? And, for about the 100th time, no new taxes on the 94% of us who don't make more than 250k a year. An "economic surge" = a Democrat in the Whitehouse!!!

McSame is grasping at straws.

What are you talking about? McSame you have been out of touch with what's going on in our country for 26 years, now you emerge calling yourself a "Maverick" You are a war hero, POW & offer the same failed policies as Bush/Cheney. You were OK with Washington being broken all these years because that is what you are also. McSame you offer more of Bush's old, stale, Washington as usual style. You do not offer anything new, I expect a REAL change, Change We Can Believe In. Barack Obama for President 08-12.

John -

Because of your misguided war, the United States Treasury has spent $1 Trillion dollars on our "Credit Card" in 5 years.

China is our bookie .. they hold our Marker ... does this sound smart to you? If not, why have you let it go on for 5 years, Mr. Experience?

This increased borrowing has put upward pressure on interest rates ... we are all paying higher interest because of deficit funding of this war.

Higher interest rates hurt business expansion and deficit spending hurts stocks / equities. The end result .... less capital for businesses to expand and create jobs.

Your loose sprinkling of the word SURGE both militarily and economically is RECKLESS and NAIVE.

The only word McBush knows is SURGE – now he is planning an Economic Surge – what is he planning to do? Send in troops to the troubled foreclosure areas and have them rebuild the homes that have been destroyed by vandals?

Quit giving Obama a hard time over the inflating tires comment. Remember his position on everthing is based on hot air.

I guess offering up your wife for a topless contest amongst bikers and not being able to string together a coherent sentence is staying in touch.

McCain is simply too old.

I am not an expert on oil. I am from Russia. So, I will vote for McCain because he is a best choise against totalitarian, antiAmerican Russian government. I am sure he is able to take down the emerging Russian dictators.

What a bunch of Whiners.. We should all go back to Strugis and watch tne MIss Buffalo Chip contest where McOld offered up his wife to participate in..
A TOPLESS contest.....Where are your family values..

And if you didn't know.. Doesn't that MAKE YOU our of TOUCH...!!!

want more war ...vote..McCain..

Want to solve energy, economic and housing crisis– VOTE Barack...

There is NOBODY more out of touch on the economy OR energy than John McCain HIMSELF! To have his chief economic advice coming from Phil Gramm, the mastermind of the Enron loophole and the disastrous bank deregulation agenda which led to the subprime crisis and our mortgage meltdown is a joke in itself! You may as well elect Calvin Coolidge, Herbert Hoover, and George W. Bush all over again if you choose John McCain for President! What a totally pathetic candidate the Republicans are throwing at us!

I just figured out Mccains campaign strategy – Surge, drill, attack, surge, drill, attack. Did I miss anything?

LORD HE KEEPS PUTTING HIS FOOT UP THE WRONG

END, ALL THE TIME. HE MUST BE MENTALLY WORSE

OFF THAN ANY ONE IMAGINED.

stick to the prepared remarks mccain.

"he's out of touch" says the dinosaur that,
1) doesn't know how to use a computer.
2) still thinks Czechoslovakia is a country.
3) doesn't know that proper tire inflation can save gas.

Fact: If we drilled everywhere in the USA, we wouldn't see a drop of oil for 7-10 years.

Fact: Oil is traded in a global marketplace. All the oil that the USA may someday produce would do little, if any, to affect oil prices.

Fact: McCain's campaign received a large donation from the Oil Industry after he started his "drill, drill, drill" campaign.

Fact: We're wise to your tricks and pandering, old man. Your "solutions" are b.s. If we could harness your methane as an energy source that may impact energy costs.

What do you mean "Out of touch". Surely inflating our tires will solve the energy crisis.

Wow.
A surge for the economy? What does that even mean?

Is he going to send US troops to our homes and force us to buy stuff at gunpoint? BUY A NEW TV OR YOUR KIDS DIE!

Wouldn't be surprised.... ya McSurge. His answer to everything.
Theres to much pollution? Surge the Environment.
Economy in the crapper? Surge the Economy

SURGE SURGE SURGE

For real answers. Real plans. Real decisions.
Real Leadership.

Vote Obama.

McCain.........According to reports regarding drilling for oil off the US shore, The oil companies have rights to drill now but won't . Why????

Does this guy have to relate everything to military erms? Economic surge now? hat is he going to do: send the troops to Wall Street (actually not a bad idea ;p) or to the manufacturing plants ?

So his point for the energy and economy problems are:
1) Drill and drill some more
2) Nuclear plants (the old fashioned ones, not fusion that produces virtually no nuclear waste and/or risks)
3) A 'surge' on the economy without specifying what that exactly means.

Sounds like a guy with a plan allright.......He is pathetic and it would be funny if the situation was funny as well.

The problems he has no solutions for asks for a serious candidate that is willing to be serious about this.

O, and by the way, he now changed his mind on inflating the tyres as well, now he actually agrees that people should do that to improve fuel efficiency. Who was the first to bring this up in public again? Right, the guy he is trying to make 'jokes' about.

Is that this guy's economic plan for the country??! Surge!? I'm sure an averagely intelligent person would like to know what this exactly means – how laughable.

What a joke. This guy is clueless!!

Obama "out of touch," you have got to be kidding. Who has stood beside George Bush every step of the way for the past eight years, voted for invading Iraq, and is part of the elitist circle in DC? Duh, that no way has an answer like Obama tied to it. Perhaps McCain is developing Alzheimer's. The answer to the question is McCain!

Here we go again with the "Surge" for now the econmy. I just can't wait for the presidential debates.

PS Did anybody see the exchange between Jon Ralston and Obama yesterday. I think months on the campaign trail has really toughned Obama!

Obama wants to increase the minimum wage. I guess he thinks that will help keep jobs from going over seas.

Says the man with nine homes and $500 shoes...

When's the last time you actually pumped a tank of gas, senator? hmm?

Anyway, enough with the surge already, John. Why is everything about war with you?

John -

If the military "SURGE" was such a success, why do you label the situation as fragile, precarious, unsustainable?

If we really achieved a strategic goal it would have staying power.

Right....... and that is why McCain accepted a $2 million dollar check from Big Oil when he started chanting "drill.......drill...........drill." The other day on CNN, when the weatherman was talking about the latest hurricane, CNN showed a map of the gulf of Mexico which was FILLED with OIL DRILLING RIGS!

I like what T. Boone Pickens says, the answer is not offshore drilling! We have plenty of natural gas, let's have our failing auto industry come up with natural gas run cars and trucks and watch us buy them up!

McCain's the one who is out of touch, with his $500 dollar shoes, NINE homes.......... while our people struggle to pay for gas and millions are without healthcare!

As a small business owner I agree with McCAin. If Obama raises more taxes on business owners they will fold up. As it is payroll, state and federal are through the roof when you are incorporated. McCain has the right idea help the smaller buisness owner and then we keep our employee's and hire others. The economy will straigthen out pretty much after this election. Obama's economic plan is a disaster in the making.

McCain is the one out of touch with American. This man is just too old!

"McCain did not take questions from the media for the third consecutive day this week."

Uh-Oh!!! Tough guy!! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!

Someone who voted with GW Bush 95% of the time is a great example of someone who's out of touch.

McCain is not up to the task. Vote with care.

Oh snap!! Why didn't anyone think of this? Economic surge. I think we need a Healthcare surge also. Plus, an Energy surge. Did I miss anything? Really? You think by adding the word surge after a problem, that make it a solution. I think you need a policy surge, my friend.

This is RICH! McCain calling Obama "out of touch"? MCCAIN? Who can't remember that Czecholoslovakia has not been a country in years? McCain, who changed Iraq's bordering country to Pakistan? McCain, who can't remember how he voted on ANYTHING without "checking the record" to REMIND him of how he voted? Oh, man, this is is hysterical as Romney saying that Obama "stooped" to low tactics...BEYOND pot/kettle. Not that CNN will post this, but McCain is the one who is out of touch! Americans are energized and electified by future POTUS OBAMA! Head back to the ranch, old man!
OBAMA/BIDEN '08 & '12...YES WE CAN!

You continously speak of Senator Obama 'being out of touch'

And your solution is – NUCLEAR POWER

I for one don't think so, for the reasons of DANGER.
– You have failed to secure the boarders
– You have failed to inspect imports (food, products for children)

Just why would any 'Logical American', put faith in you to protect us from a Nuclear Disaster?

This is funny, McCain calling Obama out of touch, OK, buddy! Go make out with Bush some more.

Drill here, drill now, yes to alternatives is in touch with our dire situation. Saying NO to these policies is OUT OF TOUCH, OUT OF THE MAINSTREAM. We're getting tired of your "out of touch" lines, tell Axelrod to change the tune and come up with concrete mainstream policies. Last time I looked, 48% doesn't win an election, and at this stagnant level with a change of direction leaning towards softening, you're placing yourself in a majority leader for the opposition role, which is the most you can aspire to. Women are going to elect McCain and for good reasons.

It's hard to point anyone as being 'out of touch' on ANYTHING when the accuser admittedly can't use a computer in this day and age. I would suggest the GOP use another term/ phrase for the same meaning.

Saying this king of thing even if it has any bearing looks bad for McCain.

If Barack's economic plan is a tire gauge, then McCain's economic plan should be a pillow. He's going to sleep through the crisis and tell us to stop whining.

Not the man for the job and definitely not the man for America. He's too old, too rigid, and too angry. I say prop him up in Arizona and let him rest.

Crist and Romney are fools; I gather the party line is to laugh about the Spears/Hilton ad. Every time someone mentions it, they put this phony, fake smile (you can tell they don't think it funny) on their stupid faces. Liars, they know that ad was below the belt.

What moron!

Okay, the old white-haired duded offered his wife as a piece of meat to the bikers in South Dakota. Lost the fight against Paris Hilton. Agree with Obama on keeping your car well tuned to reduce gas consumption. Now he is calling Obama out of touch.

Let's see, Obama = message, message, message
McClueless = drill, paris, drill, britney, drill, surge, dill I agree with Obama.

can you say out of Hot Air?

POOR OLD SLIMY SLEAZO, TRYING TO IMITATE OBAMA.

OLD WARMONGER DOESN'T EVEN KNOW WHERE HE IS

MOST OF THE TIME. WE DON'T WANT ANY MORE OF THE

CHANEY ENERGY PLAN. MCBUSH CAN SHOVE IT IN HIS

LOOSE CASTRO INTESTINAL TRACT.

An economic surge? How about an energy surge and a housing surge too? A surge is the answer to everything. How about some brain surgery for you friend, Mr. McBush. Why don't we surge the heck out of Iraq and Afganistan and concentrate our efforts here at home while we are still afloat as a nation.

Uh - who's out of touch?

Does Sen. McCain not understand that the economic policies of the past didn't work too well? The same policies he's pushing?

Tell me again which is 'exactly the wrong strategy'?

McCain takes pride in being ignorant.

McCain's motto: If you can't beat them honorably, attack them.

Obama out of touch? When was the last time you pumped your own gas, bought your own groceries, or did any of the things us "average" folks do?

I'd call Obama closer and more in touch with the realities that we common folk go through than someone who has a house for every day of the week.

OK, crypt keeper, whatever you say.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!! Teehheeeeheheheheeeeeee, hohoh hahahah!

OMG! Please tell me this guy is purposely throwing the campaign.

Democrats took over House and Senate majority two years ago. Two years ago, gasoline prices were much less than they are now. Pelosi promised an aggressive energy campaign to reduce the price of gas. So much for her lies...and you all want Democrats to own the White House too??? What is wrong with you people? Bush lifted the federal ban on offshore drilling and voila prices declined 20 days straight. Don't you people get it yet? Save the bees, save the trees, but blame everyone else but yourselves for high oil prices. Hypocrites.

Uh oh.. here comes another SURGE!!!! lolololol...precious lamb, that baby....

As much as I like McCain, there's only so much a president can do for the economy.

Well said, President McCain.

Fortunately, much of America is beginning to see through Obama and realize he has little basis in any of his so-called plans.

The smart voters are going for you this November, John.

You'll be a great president!

PLEASE POST CNN!!!

How are you going to call for an "Economic Surge" and not even outline details?

NOW THAT'S STRAIGHT TALK!!

OBAMA/SEBELIUS!!!

More play on words, he has no plan, has no vision.
Just hot air
John sad that you are there best, if Obama where not black you would be losing by 40%

Mccain is showing signs of desperation.

How are you going to call for an "Economic Surge" and not even outline details?

NOW THAT'S STRAIGHT TALK!!

OBAMA/SEBELIUS!!!

ANOTHER BAD PHRASE, FOR MCSENILE TO USE.

SHOULDN'T EVEN GO THERE.

MCMORON'S CONTRIBUTION TO OUR ENERGY

POLICY FOR THE PAST 30 YEARS, PRETTY MUCH

IDENTICAL TO CHANEY'S, GIVE TAX DOLLARS TO THE

OIL COMPANIES. YEA THAT SOUNDS GOOD IF YOU ARE A MORON.

All this tragic man can offer is empty sound bytes, adolescent insults and a continuance of these last sad 7.5 years. It is revealing that the best the Republicans can offer is a candidate so sorely lacking in substance...one can only milk the weak "war hero" persona for so much and for so long.

who said they didnt know much about the economy? McBUSH!!!!

Flip-floppers are horrible, Obama 08

A Question to John McCain...What exactly do you plan to do with all the nuclear waste that is produced...isn't that a bigger danger to the American people....!!!!!

Obama's policies would be disasterous if he's elected. It will be so bad that people will look back on the Bush years as the "Good Old Days". Obama is the new Jimmy Carter, a president who's elected amid a disillusioned public who turns out to be worse than his predecessor.

Just say Nobama '08

McSurge!!!!!!!!!

"Political observers are wondering why Obama isn't doing better!"
Doesn't anyone in the media have enough balls to say the obvious? RACE! He's black morons! GOD the media makes me sick!

Time to focus on what is best for Americans and not what our so called European Allies and the Middle East. We are the ones paying your salaries and we are the ones that vote in elections.

Here is a plan for an American Surge... Close all the bases in Europe, Make them pay for their own defense. Cut our taxes to no more than
10% of our income. Stop the importation of Chinese made Goods.
Tell Mexico that for every Illegal Mexican Citizen in the U.S., their foreign aid will be reduced by $1,000 per person, then watch how fast they put a fence of their own. Do not bring anymore Students from the
Arab nations to study in the United States and deport the ones that have overstayed their visas. Then the jobs will go back to our Citizens.

Building 45 nuclear plants and then hoping we find a way to safely transport and dispose of nuclear waste should not be in anyone's energy plan. That's why it's not in Obama's plan.

Offshore drilling won't work, too bad Americans are too stupid to understand that.

I might be willing to give McCain credit if he focused on solar and wind power instead of just mentioning them as he lobbies for more drilling.

"McCain said, without elaborating on what exactly an "economic surge" would entail." - God forbid the media actually ask for details behind any of Gramps McGrumpy's plans. That might upset him.

Your economic surge will be you leaving the subject of economics to people who know what they're talking about–not you.

Old men yelling at clouds should do so at home.

Charlie Brown is always calling Obama out of touch when he has been in the senate for almost 30 years and has done nothing. Now all of a sudden he is the expert on everything. How about he show us what he has been using his expertise on for the last 30 years. He is nothing but a puppet. Everything he says is from the words of his writers who are fully controlling his so called campaign. SIT DOWN Charlie Brown.

Hillary tried this too. Didn't work for her either. Try again, J Mac.

Yeah, "out of touch." Codeword for "elitist." Which of these candidates owns nine houses? Which of these candidates wears shoes worth half a million dollars. Which of these candidates is worth A HUNDRED MILLION BUCKS?! Which of these candidates is REALLY out of touch?

JMc always talks about OB.
Alway in attack mode. Never talk explain in detail his plan on the economy. He is soooooooooooooo jealous!

how much money does it take to buy John McCain?
$100,000.00 from Lowell Paxson
2 million from Big oil. how much will a McCain Administration cost?

Surge, drill, bash Obama, surge, drill, bash Obama, surge, drill, bash Obama, surge, drill, bash Obama.....

HA HA HA HA McCain said anyone is out of touch...There wasnt enough lies in his prepared rmarks so he had to add his own.

Stop talking, you're a fool, McCain. I think a lot more happened to you ih Vietnam than you're willing to share. Get your head checked again.

End of story.

O/08

What baloney! This is a man who doesn't even understand that pumping up your tires can improve your gas mileage!

When's the last time you even THOUGHT about what makes your car tick, Senator?

And how come all you can do now is toe the line for the Republican party? What ever happened to your "maverick" streak?

You're nothing but a party hack for a party that's bankrupt for new ideas.

out of touch is a senile old man spending his constituents hard earned money on making tire gauges to mock obama then 2 days later, after everyone has called you a fool, saying that you agreed with him in the first place.

out of touch is having a campaign staff that calls americans a bunch of whiners

out of touch is wanting to stay in iraq for 100 years.

gimme a break.

Why no questions from the press? Is McCain's memory on the fritz, he can't answer any inquiry that requires thought ful recall?

Out of touch ? Speak of calling the kettle black. Poor old McSame cannot babble a word without Judas Lieberman whispering in his hairy ears ...

Americ ans are whiners...........you whiners elected Bush Jr
