Yay! Keep going, Obama, do NOT let them get away with lies and no plans to help us regular people. To Barbara in NC above:

It seems she doesn't believe in anything that is actually scientific.Maybe if people knew where she stands they could make a more informed choice. I believe she will help to bring us backward, especially women.

Just Google Anne Kilkenny.Palin is a joke and overstated her experience more then any other politician ever has and as time go's on there will be more truth about all of her lies.For those of you that findit difficult, close your eyes and remember what she says then fact check it and 90% of the time it is a lie or overstated.She does match the 90% of Bush McCain policies.

When you look at the ISSUES every Ameican is concerned about, McCain and Palin are no where near the level of competence required to work well on any of these issues. With McCain voting the same as George Bush 95% of the time, there is NO WAY he's representing 'CHANGE'. He is representing a lie.

I'm in no way willing to take the chance on McCain that the 5% of the time that he wasn't taking the George Bush road will be for anything substantial to help this country. Too much is at stake, McCain blew his chance when he voted with George Bush repeatedly 95% of the time.

McCain decided that they want a "historiy making" candidate since Obama is one, so they whip out Palin. Then all of a sudden McCain/Palin are "change agents" when it's been Obama's slogan for 20 months, What's next? The only thing I have heard that is truth that came out of Palin's mouth is that she is pitbull. Apparently, she is so overly aggressive that she will mow down anything that comes in her way of getting what she wants, that if you do no agree with her, she takes it personally and will make you pay and her ambition lies above and beyond her family and her integrity. Is this what America wants to lead this country? Give me a break.
