Today Nancy Pfotenhauer, a McCain Campaign Spokeswoman, answered a question about McCain's V.P. pick by saying "My office is under a "cone of silence'... " . She was there to talk-up the gaffe mentioned and gaffed herself. I'm sure no one in the McCain camp wanted her to remind anyone of that mistake he made.

There are plenty of more vitriolic, nasty comments that are anti-McCain and anti-Republican but you don't seem to mind those. Don't pretend to be an open forum when you don't take contrary opinions that are factually correct. Your censorship is no better than the Nazis was in Hitler Germany, print only what pleases the Reich. Perhaps you ought to re-write my comment so that it suits your political philosophy.

Obama wants the title of President but Biden will run the country. Isn't this what we've had for the last 8 years?

When a room full of Obama supporters of all ages were asked by the host of a town meeting to name one important accomplishment, not a one of the thirty supporters could name a single thing and I'll bet that not a single one of the bloggers on here can either. When he was an Illinois legislator, he voted present over 200 times because he didn't have the guts to vote on politically sensitive issues that might cloud his political future. Biden was right when he said that Obama isn't ready to lead. The reason for his precipitous drop in the polls in one month is that people are starting to realize for that all his rhetoric and high-sounding platitudes about change and hope, he is really not ready and has neither the experience nor the temperament for the most important job in the history of mankind in the most dangerous times in the history of the world. He wouldn't be allowed to be a CEO of any major corporation with his experience, why would anyone even begin to consider him. I agree with economist Ben Stein, Obama scares me to death, but not just on economic grounds: His friends, Rev. Wright, Bill Ayres, and Tony Rezko, tell me volumes about his lack of judgment, his real philosophy, and who he really is, more than any speech or sound-byte.

C'mon, Sen. McCain, grow up and start playing ball like a big boy. By the way, John, what in hell does your POW experience have to do with you and the number of houses you own now. To hear his flacks talk, it's obvious he thinks that his unfortunate experience makes him immune to any form of criticism. Grow up, Senator McCain.

They have to do with countries and important facts a president should know, like how many houses he has and what car he drove? I'll bet he has never reconciled a checkbook. Let's compare gaffes vs. gaffes. Winner takes all. Shall we make a list (and it will be loooooong) of McCain's gaffes?

Even if we don't vote for Obama, we could still vote for Barr or Nader or countless other candidates. I think it would be a good idea for the McCain campaign to stop jumping on every little pet peeve and hang-up they have about Obama, and tell us what McCain will do as president.
