		<description>McCain is dirty.  He has taken money, sweet heart land deals, and vacations, plane rides and a variety of other perks from Charles Keating.  McCain is an immoral philanderer.  He stole Carol McCain from another navy man, cheated on her throughout their marriage both before the Nam and especially after when she wasn&#039;t so pretty.  McCain is a failure, he has only one accomplishment to sell to America and the ultimate performance evaluation for naval aviators is being shot down - read fail!.  McCain is the political spawn of a liar.  Duke Tully was the publisher of the Arizona Republic, and the person who shaped McCain&#039;s war hero persona he too was a hero in his eyes, he bragged about all his heroic exploits in Korea and all the medals he&#039;s earned.  Newsflash-he was never in the military.
McCain has never earned or worked or done a thing on his own in his life that someones daddy, his or Cindy&#039;s got for him.</description>

		<description>Here goes a man who want to become future president do not know how many houses he own. wow….that is not a shocker, most people failed to realize that Mccain is just another rich man who do not care about your suffering.

&quot; America people should go get second job to pay their mortgage, there will be no money for them&quot;
That meant their housing forclosure issues is not cause by mortgage lender, it is cause by ordinary people who were deceived into getting houses.
Obama campaign are not doing a good job pointing out McCaflip flipper mispeak or wrong tactice.
There are lots of tools for the Obama campaigns to use but they have failed to utilize them.</description>

		<description>Obama is criticized when he doesn&#039;t respond and if he does, if only the scrutiny the media puts on Obama was focused on McCain it would be over. The Obama &#039;negative&#039; adds are factual and not lies and stuff completely made up like the repugs use. There is a big difference people.</description>

		<description>Anyone who believes John McSame would do a better job of the economy than Obama is either (a) wealthy (b) stupid or (c) living in a parallel universe...

Exactly how much more war do you think this country can take?  Are endless tax cuts for the rich in the best interest of the country? How much more outsourcing of jobs will there be until nothing is left of America except a big garage sale?</description>

		<description>Making people aware of the truth about John McCain is a good thing.

The truth makes you free, (John McShame is bound up) according to John McCain who stated at Saddleback that he would call upon Sen Lewis, a person who is a colleague in the Senate, but yet they don&#039;t conversate.  How hyprocitial could he be, first of all in the front of God and a worldwide audience.

Also, why would you go to the gates of hell, when the Word of God says the &quot;The gates of hell will not prevail&quot;  Seems to me that John McCain wants to do some hot and flaming traveling.

Of course we alreday heard about Tony Rezko and Ayers in the Primary and it just doesn;t work and won&#039;t be effective now.  John McCain can play out of the Clintons playbook, but you can&#039;t teach an old dog new tricks!</description>

		<description>Why do  Americans think that we need an old president? Hillary is 60 and MCain is 71.  Could we please elect someone that might have some new ideas? Look my Fellow Americans, have you noticed that the death rate seems to be claiming a lot more well known people lately? it&#039;s time out for playing games. if you want to play political games then go to Russia and try it there, or better yet go to North Korea and try it there. How can you be a Hillary supporter voting for MCain? What kind of sick twisted drugs are you on?</description>

		<description>we all know worst of McCain and in this campaign we have witnessed  worst of McCain in his negative ads. he has been vicious like a pit bull. he hardly discussed any issue , only raved all along his false superior qualification in foreign policy and over all qualification to be the president of the USA and  false negatives about Mr.Obama  trying to portray him disqualified for the office.  But the reality is if one puts side by side  there is no contest ( Obama wins in all counts).

when someone wants to take the country into war for personal reason or for no reason or falsifying reasons or at the drop of a hat  sending unthoughtful way  hundreds of thousands of American young men and women crippling many of them for rest of their lives, spending billions of  dollars of tax payers money ( eventually of course these money finding their way to the deep pockets of the politicians and their big business friends who manages the business side of the war  ) thousands of young people dying fighting such war and John McCain  who himself was captured  and tortured by enemy force  once in such a war now wants to follow the same policy  presenting his war experience as the most qualifying degree for  foreign policy expert , once wanted to continue a 100 yr war in Iraq, still venting out war cry for a cold war from time to time is not on our, the COMMON peoples
side. we  the common people , at least understand this much.

how he can be that reckless when he has so much of baggages, personal and political , be so negative. once when i did not know much about him , i admired him as a hero , respected him as a ver honest, straight shooter  politician man . except for still I admire him as a hero , rest of the feeling vanished.    s  who 
in contrast all along Obama remained so decent  and  civil carrying positive message and hopes for the common folks like us .  but this degree of nicety and civility may make the him loose the race  and hopes and dreams of so many common , decent , fair minded , non prejudiced,  educated , hard working , god fearing Americans for a more prosperous , peaceful future will vanish (talking about vanishing dreams ). perhaps now Obama cannot afford to be that nice  and continue  business as usual and it is about time time tell all the truth.
be truthfully negative. only the truth.</description>

		<description>Why has no one mentioned McCain&#039;s lying about a cross on the ground as it was clearly stolen from a book and can be easily proven.  CNN can do this in a New York second but they won&#039;t because they are biased against Obama.</description>

Oh please. You Dem&#039;s try as hard as you can. You won&#039;t discredit McCain. He is a honest man that will not, nor never take the low road. Obama cares about one thing, and one thing only…. Please…Look at his wife….Need i say more. Be really careful who u vote for. think very hard. Don&#039;t just jump on the band wagon. Think of are country….. McCain is in no way perfect. But he&#039;s a lot better than some newbie coming on the seen. One November 4, do the right thing. In your hart. vote the right way…….
 
DUDE, HOW ABOUT YOU LEARN HOW TO SPELL. IF JOHN BOY WAS SO HONEST, THEN WHY DID HE LIE TO HIS CURRENT WIFE ABOUT HIS AGE? WHY DID HE CHEAT ON HIS CRIPPLED WIFE? YOU SAY JOHN WOULDN&#039;T TAKE THE LOW ROAD. UHHH WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN LIVING, IN A CAVE WITH OSAMA? BECAUSE HAVE YOU NOT SEEN HIS LAME ATTACK ADS? ISN&#039;T JOHN MCSAME THE SAME PERSON WHO SAID HE WOULD NOT TOLERATE NEGATIVITY IN HIS CAMPAIGN. OBAMA HAS SAID IT TOO BUT WHEN YOU KEEP GETTING ATTACKED YOU CAN&#039;T STAND THERE AND NOT DO ANYTHING. TO VOTE FOR MCCAIN WILL BE VOTING FOR THE SAME OLD POLITICS AS USUAL - LITERALLY. MCCAIN IS TOO OLD SCHOOL AND WILL NEVER GET THE BLACK OR HISPANIC VOTE AND HE NEEDS THOSE RACE GROUPS TO WIN AND SINCE HE VOTED AGAINST MAKING MLK A FEDERAL HOLIDAY, HIS CHANGES ARE VERY SLIM.

		<description>Thank God!!!  The Republicans ARE NOT IN CANADA 

CNN Great show on “Obama and McCain Revealed” 
Better than any debate. 
You can see now why unionist and the average person supports Obama and big business supports McCain. 
No question about it!!   This a battle between the “people and money” 

McCain and the Repubs have a new version of 

“for the people by the people”  

republican code for 

“for the Rich by the Republicans” 

I hate to tell you this but your government is a bit corrupt and only serves &quot;party&quot; self interest - so much for true democracy…

Average people in America should be more selfish and demand more of their government. I don’t know if Obama can change it  - BUT - I certainly wouldn’t be voting Republican given their track record.

The best to you my friends – I really think you are in trouble!</description>

		<description>Mc Cain is too long in politics so he had to lie a lot. Such people don´t remember their lies any more. Give him a retirement in his houses (how many ??) but not in the White House.</description>

What happened to his promise to run a different campaign??? Is the pot calling the kettle black—REZKO!!!! Politics as usual. This 32 year old, college educated Democrat still hopes Hillary&#039;s name will be put in nomination at the DNC
 
--------------------------

You PUMAs should be really careful on how you throw stones. 
 
&quot;As Hillary Clinton continues to insist that she has &quot;no relationship&quot; with shady indicted real estate investor Tony Rezko, the facts seem to indicate otherwise. 
 
According to records, Rezko donated $15,000 to the Democratic National Committee in March 2000. At the time, the committee was helmed by longtime Clinton ally Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell, who endorsed Hillary Clinton on Wednesday. While it&#039;s possible that Rendell and the Clintons discussed neither the donation nor the donor, it&#039;s not likely.&quot;</description>

		<description>For all of you out there who are throwing whatever you can to see if it sticks regarding Senator Obama - don&#039;t you think that if there was anything really devestating to him, we&#039;d have already heard it?  I mean really, Hillary Clinton WANTED to be president and would have done anything she could have to make that happen, but she couldn&#039;t because there was nothing to find.

For all of you out there calling Senator Obama a liar, please provide links or citations because just saying something doesn&#039;t make it so.

Senator McCain&#039;s record is there and clear.  His campaign is being run by paid lobbyists who are being paid as lobbyists even as they run his campaign.  This is not just a conflict of interest, it is blatently unethical.</description>

		<description>I am so sick of this campaign.  I am also tired of the negative ads.  I see somebody wrote that Americans love the negative stuff.  Thats whats wrong with this country  because we elect people who are &quot;negative&quot; and don&#039;t care about the needs of the American people.  It&#039;s like a game show that keeps going onand on.  I pray that this country can come together and unite as a strong nation UNDER GOD!</description>

		<description>No more Mr. nice guy.  Swift boat the Maverick with the truth.   You have 26 years of his word and voting to get him on.  We have already had 7 years of an underachieving dunce, we don&#039;t need another.  Even if McCain is trying to pull a fast one by floating the one term idea.  One term would make him even more dangerous, once in he has nothing to lose and the cowards in congress won&#039;t impeach or sanction him.

Everytime McCain opens his mouth he puts his foot in.  Now he agrees  with a draft to follow Osama to the gates of hell.   Guess whose children will be first ?  So go ahead America play with your children&#039;s and grandchildren&#039;s future.  Canada is returning deserters, so that won&#039;t be an option.</description>

		<description>I keep wanting to believe in McCain, but then this stuff comes up and I feel like I&#039;m being duped again by the same jerks who have run this country into the ground for the last eight years.  

And that business about him not knowing how many homes he owns.  Come on, who doesn&#039;t know how many homes he has?  If he really is that out of touch with his own finances, there&#039;s no way I can trust him with America&#039;s.</description>

		<description>Yes, Obama should go there, if it going to get some democrats in trouble so be it. Enough of these rich old people in Washington. They should let the younger generation take over the leadership of this nation, after all it&#039;s our time lead. These old focks both democrats and republicans should go home a play with their great grand children and leave this nation to us</description>

		<description>Well Nya, sorry to say but we have to vote for someone. Obama talks the straightest of the two. If you follow politics then you know that the Republican Party has used lies and manipulation and money to control America for nearly 30 years. When it comes to supporting American institutions you can&#039;t support John McCain! He thinks Social Security is an outrage, he believes that war is the way of the world and should always be threatened. He believes that tax cuts for altra rich is a worthy cause. So Nya, if we don&#039;t compare their faults and positives then what do we do? Just listen to the squak box polititions and corporate heads that tell halftruths all day , over and over on Cable? Do you realize that you pay for cable and because of that, they can lie their heads off, legally, because you pay for it! Want to help our country,, cancelle Cable TV and watch what happens. I have called for a boycot of cable tv for about10 years now. All Cable TV. Since there is little to no regulation of online media news shows. You pay for the lies and that is the way they get away with the propaganda. Think about it!

		<description>Well what a surprise, the big O going negative again.

In his previous elections that he won, rather than discussing issues he got rid of signatures that weren&#039;t in cursive writing, and then in another he made sure private divorce papers were opened.

I really feel sorry for you who believe that he is actually different. He is not. This is good old fashioned Chicago politics.</description>

		<description>I am simply not voting for President this year, for the first time in the 31 yrs I have been eligible to vote. I&#039;ll be at the polls to vote for a democratic Senator for my state, but will be skipping the Presidential part of the ballot. 
It&#039;s become apparent to me in the last few months that we are all fooling ourselves if we think what an individual feels in this country re: the presidential election means a stinking thing. The media decides who becomes president.  I&#039;m not playing anymore. This has become the United States of ABC&lt;NBC&lt;CBS&lt;FOX&amp;CNN.

This comment won&#039;t run anyway. I&#039;ve posted over 40, and none ever has... again, the media runs it all.</description>

		<description>Susan - Obama was 8 years old when this man Ayers did what he did.


Yes, but Ayers is &#039;unprepentent&#039; about what he did and wished he had done more. 

Obama went to his home on the eve of launching his political career to garner support from Ayers, who has some swing with radical liberal politics in Chicago. He also served on a community committee with him for years and called him a &#039;friend&#039;. 

BUT...Obama says we can&#039;t ask him questions about that. How friggin convenient!              NICE PICK DEMS!!!!!</description>

		<description>By the way, isn&#039;t it interesting that they&#039;re talking about Obama&#039;s judgment when they lack much of the same? There&#039;s always semantics and hair-splitting when it comes to Republicans. That&#039;s why all your kids are being shot to death in this phony war on terror. Only an idiot like Bush could tell us bin Laden did this and then go after a man who&#039;s name is pronounced &#039;Sad-dam Hus-sein&#039;.</description>

		<description>McCain has a BIG Catholic problem.  His alliances with openly anti-catholic groups has tainted his entire campaign.  Catholics should not vote for this man!</description>

		<description>There is a poster (VLK) that says if Obama is elected this will no longer be  &quot;our&quot; country.  I would like to know what is meant by &quot;our&quot;.  The last time I checked Obama is just as American as John McCain,  why the catastrophic prediction if Obama is elected?  Is this just racial for you?   That mentality is exactly how we wound up with George Bush who is the worst president in the history of the US.</description>

		<description>The truth has a well known liberal bias so by all means Obama should tell the truth about McCain&#039;s behavior and policies.  It is to Obama&#039;s advantage that given McCain&#039;s long checkered past he doesn&#039;t have to make anything up, and given Obama&#039;s gift for words he won&#039;t have to &quot;sound negative&quot; to be effective.</description>

Good on you, Obama! Time to come out swinging. Show the Republiscum they don&#039;t have a monopoly on slime.&quot;

You&#039;re right, Freddy - the Republicans are really dumb.  But they have met their match with you!  The Democrats are FULL of slime!

This has GOT to be a joke posting!  Even Democrats aren&#039;t this stupid!</description>

		<description>To all of you who will refuse to vote for Obama in this election, we will not forget that if and when Hilary decides to run!  Remember, that knife cuts both ways.

You are blaming the wrong person for Clinton&#039;s defeat -- how about pointing to Penn and the rest of her team.  They had no strategy after Super Tuesday, not even enough money!  How is that Obama&#039;s fault?</description>

		<description>Huh, I thought Obama was all about a new kinda of politics, all about change ? Guess I was wrong, or else perhaps he is just flip-flopping again. Hillary is starting to look really good about now.</description>

		<description>*LOL* The Obama campaign is already running out of ideas! They already tried this attack ad and McCain GAINED in the polls and continues to do so. I guess six degrees of Kevin Bacon isn&#039;t enough to sway independent voters, Obama.

Just WAIT till McCain busts out the Tony Rezko and Jeremiah Wright attack ads... you know, people who Obama actually KNEW and trusted with his family.</description>

		<description>This ad is the equivalent in this campaign of slapping someone that just beat you in the face with a tire iron. Obama is going to have to hit back or watch the American people get scared into voting for 4 more years or Republican destruction, domestic and foreign.

		<description>Quick question-
How does someone who seems so certain that life begins at conception tell us so casually that he might pick a pro-choice VP? as well say &quot;I might pick a murderer for my VP.&quot;  I&#039;m sorry, but this is one issue that you can&#039;t pander about, or try to play both ways.  If you feel as strongly about the issue as McCain seemed to at the Saddleback forum, then you don&#039;t even consider picking a pro-choice VP.  I think I smell some pandering going on...

Bottom line-  McCain is NOT a true Republican.  This is a guy who has expressed interest in joining the Democratic Party on several occasions, and even cozied up to John Kerry to be considered as his VP.  

The man IS an American Hero, but he also has numerous affairs when he cheated on his first wife, who waited for him faithfully for five and a half years while he was in Vietnam.  And these weren&#039;t one night stand affairs, they were long running affairs lasting over a year.  And when McCain was restationed by the Navy, he found a new mistress in the new location!  In fact, He filed for a marriage license in Arizona to marry Cindy before his divorce from his first wife was even final!  Is this the man that evangelicals want carrying the torch for family values?</description>
