How angry can you be that your willing to say that mc cain has your best intentions because your candidate didnt get nominated . The numbers dont lie . Obama was nominated because the votes were counted regardless of the tom foolery of Michigan and Florida . So if you honestly believe that MC Cain has your best interest at heart? If thats the case then you should vote for him and get a retard acronym to go with your misconstrued and misdirected anger. You deserve to have your kids in a war torn country risking their lives for a neo conservative agenda YOU deserve to not to have health care because big pharmaceuticals are in the governments pockets YOU deserve to have no jobs at your local plant because the government decide it easier for them to ship them over seas YOU deserve big oil companies to not give a rats a$$ about you or your need to drive around your dumbfounded idea of automobile supremacy ... Dont fall victim to the talking heads and personal pride think about where your gonna be in 5 years because you thought it was cute to be mad your candidate didnt make it in the beauty contest.. Think for once and stop following others. I hear all this PUMA this and PUMA that but what are you really mad about ? .

Nice job....how about you now report the next president so that we can get past this crap....oh I forgot, you have to sell this crap for the next three months so that you can make the most of it....whatever happened to ethics in reporting....I am just disgusted with the TV reporters....all of you, you twist the truth by only showing clips of speeches that are shown totally out of context, you speculate where there is no basis for the least amount of accuracy and you misquote grossly. Who has the job to determine the next presidential cabinet anyway? Just report the facts O.K ? Do the nation a service and give us only the information we need to make up our minds and leave your own twist out of it.....THAT would be ethical reporting. GROW UP!

It was the Obama Camp's failure to release the text message on Friday that caused the media frenzy to highly speculate into early Saturday AM. So, the blame goes to Obama on this one. And....."YAWN"....."Boring".......on the pick of Biden. I am a Democrat and very very very Disappointed that Obama chose Biden. Remember---Biden ran for Prez Nominee....didn't get very many to vote for him...very few delegates and he dropped out in Jan 08. Kinda reminds me of the Bush - Cheney ticket. Cheney is older than Bush. Biden is older than Obama.....hmmmmmm. I can tell you this.....I am a Democrat and since this "stupid" choice for VP........I am voting McCain. No kidding on this. A "true" Change.....would have had Obama choosing a "Woman" as VP. CNN was in the right to call it.

You're turning into FOX News. LOOK AT US, WE KILLED THIS GUYS IDEA OF AN EQUAL ANNOUNCEMENT! Also, RJ from CA, get over yourself. Your state has no chance of supporting McCain anyway. Clinton supporters need to get off their racist, jealous high horses and accept that your candidate lost and that we're getting change instead of Bush-Clinton-Bush-Clinton. Oh darn. I thought that's what this country was about. Seriously, are you guys that full of yourselves? You're turning into FOX News. LOOK AT US, WE KILLED THIS GUYS IDEA OF AN EQUAL ANNOUNCEMENT!

Let me remind you.. it was Hillary that decided to put that 3:00 am ad out... using a child actor who didn't give permission to be used for her campaign... and ironically that child actor is now grown up and a campaign volunteer for Obama :) Why are people swiping at Obama when it was an ad from Hillary specifically designed to put Obama down?

A democratic president will bring him and his fellow soldiers home, Your vote matters. Are you comfortable voting for McCain out of spite, knowing that he will continue this war and that we will perhaps lose thousands of more american lives? HRC and McCain have drastically different agendas. So now that HRC won't be president you instead chose to vote for someone that will continue this war indefinitely?????? Grow up Bob.
