How about the rally Biden had today at Mehlville High School in St. Louis Mo.? OK for Dem's not OK for Republicans? Come on CNN tell both sides!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well she had been mcsame's running mate for awhile. When are they going to let her go it alone. What are they afraid of. Just goes to show she is a mcsame puppet. Let's hear what she or mcsame have to say about the HUGE deficit his good old buddy bush is leaving the next president. Peolple please wake up. Let give REAL CHANGE (OBAMA/BIDEN) the chance to show REAL CHANGE, not more of the republicans scaring people into voting for another for years of bush.

I only hope the good people of Virginia don't fall for this Republican nonsense IT'S A RUSE! McCain isn't the vehicle of change and Palin will set women back 20 or 30 years without choices! I am amazed that Good people actually believe McCain's empty words! Palin is just being told what to say she has never even met Obama. I hope someone burst that bubble soon! McCain knew exactly what he was doing he needed a mouth piece suddenly he's mute and she's the bell of his campaign!

E.J. Mohammed someone who wll never vote another Republican again!

I remember how people reacted when Bush was elected in 2000 - How could 50,000,000 people be so "smart"?! Guess what - there was even more "good" news in 2004 - the number of "smart" people grew by >20%(!) to 62,000,000! I'm sure you can't wait to know who are those 62,000,000 "smart" people - well, your wait is over:

93% of republicans (well, that's totally expected)
86% of individuals for whom terrorism is the most important issue
(simply terrific job by Cheney&Rove)
85% of individuals who supported war in Iraq (sure, we are over there for a good reason)
84% of conservatives (by definition they have no new ideas - again, expected)
63% of gun owners (afraid that unless big daddy (Bush/Cheney/McCain) will protect them, someone else will take away their toys)
58% of individuals making > $100,000 per year (don't wonna pay more taxes)

Yes, "smart" in America did it in 2000 and 2004 - will they do it again in 2008?!!!

KEN: "trailer trash crowd"? What an elitist positioning, personified!

BTW, what you stated was equally vacuous; notice that I spelled it correctly. Vacuum is spelled with two 'U's. I learned that the first day in my Vacuum Technology course in t963. Not knowing the difference reduces you to less than the TTCs you demeaned; at least as far as I am concerned.

The skirt and the skirt chaser. Priceless.

VIRGINIA, don't let us down, and don't be fooled by big hair and a skirt.

Obama/ Biden 08

WE SEE THE CROWDS , WE SEE THE FLAGS WAVING , WE HEAR THE CHEERS , WE SEE THE SMILES ON THE PEOPLE'S FACES.
AND THAT FOLKS IS JUST THE START OF THE MCCAIN-PALIN RALLIES.. THEY NOW NEED LARGER VENUES FOR THEIR CAMPAIGN BECAUSE THE CROWDS ARE GETTING TOO BIG
FOR SCHOOL GYMS AND AUDITORIUMS. THIS IS TURNARIUND
TIDE OF THE MCCIAN-PALIN VICTORY TRAIN JUST ROLLING ALONG IN HIGH GEAR .
THE OBAMA CAMP IS TUNING THEIR CAMPAIGN IN DEFENSIVE MODE ON THE EXPERIENCE AND JUDGEMENT ISSUE NOW, WE SHOULD CREDIT OBAMA FOR HIS "COMMUNITY ORGANIZER" CREDENTIALS BECAUSE THAT IS A KIND OF COMMUNITY SERVICE.. NOTHING HOWEVER COMPARES TO JOINING THE RANKS OF OUR TROOPS LIKE MCCAIN AND PALIN'S SONS.
INCLUDING MCCAIN HIMSELF . THERE WAS AN ARTICLE ABOUT OBAMA IN WHICH OBAMA WAS QUOTED AS SAYING " I THOUGHT OF JOINING THE MILITARY " ONCE. ETC.ETC. THINKING ABOUT DOING SOMETHING IS JUST "WISHFUL THINKING" AND DOES NOT AMOUNT TO A PLATE OF BEANS.

Let's see, spending precious time with your son before he goes to Iraq, or country hopping with a wife cheater and a warmonger. Great choice Sarah, you'll make an excellent VP. Oh by the way VP in your case stands for Void of Principles.

Obama/Biden 08

Heck, I can hide out in my house from now until November. Let me be the VP. America knows as much about me as they do Sarah Failin.

For themselves: A vote for McCain and Palin

—–4 more years of Bush (or worse)
—–I am a woman and do not want to back in history….(Palin)
—-All we have heard from them is attack attack attack…no meat and potatoes(at least Obama has a plan)

McCain and Palin… has not said anything on how they are gonna do what?…. Cutting Earmarks…is nothing compared to the billions we spend on the war…. the rich will continue to get richer and the poor poorer…. just think….. if abortions become illegal…..we will have more hungry children than Africa…..

with the way the economy is nad high energy prices…
and the policies of John and Sarah….. the USA will be far worse off than we already are.

McCain is afraid to show up at a rally without Sarah…

I dare you McCain…

Go to one rally without her…

Prove you are the one running for President…

You know why you won't do it …

Because nobody would SHOW UP!!!!

LOL

Obama the only true candidate!!!

McCain is afraid to show up at a rally without Sarah…

I dare you McCain…

Go to one rally without her…

Prove you are the one running for President…

You know why you won't do it …

Becasue nobody would SHOW UP!!!!

LOL

Obama the only true candidate!!!

Do you mean to tell me that the Right can say that if you are a Democrat that you are NOT a true American, or that you don't love or care about your country or that you are not a true patriot but the Democrats "sink to a new low" by pointing out a scientific FACT???
GIVE ME A FRICKEN BREAK!

Great John, keep her away from the press, that way they won't find out what a zero she is.

My suggestion would be to build a bunker and let her hide out wherever the heck Dick Cheney was hiding out during 9/11 and Katrina.

Obama/Biden, a team who's not afraid to face the music.

08

A——-S I G N ——O F———O B A M A—C O L L A P S I N G

Unbelievable. McCain-Palin looking like winners. Obama-Biden looking like losers. Obama supporters being driven up the wall.

If it comes down to believing the school board or the McCrypt camp, my money is on the school board

…..I think that, at least in theory, the McCain camp is concerned that McCain would draw less crowds than his running mate….thus making him less appealing by showing that the people aren't there for his "message" at all……

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Of course people are there to see this "oddity pitbull". They don't give a hoot about McCain or what he has to say. Two woman I know told me they went to that airport rally just so she could see this woman lie in front of all those people. LOL!!!

The jokes on the GOP's this year. Telling us a lier over and over still doesn't make it true and this year we're aware.

America is paying attention this time. Truthful Information is easy to find this day and age.

I'm so glad America got smart! I'm counting 10 Obama supporters to every 1 McCain supporter.

Gov. Palin is a McCain cheerleader! She always speaks before him at a rally & says the same old s tuff. I watched Sen Biden speak at the same time she was speaking on CNN this afternoon. Biden was speaking on health care, a top issue to many Americans. Palin was cheerleading as usual. She has no agenda. Time is short & the public still does not know what her stand is. Media has to dig to find something she has done as mayor or governor to get an idea of she's about. This is not a game to me. I am extremely disappointed at McCain for exploiting this woman, and I am upset that she is allowing them to make a pure fool out of her. He's using her and if he wins, she will not be allowed to do anything. She will be scripted as she is now. Sen. Obama has my vote. American women should be ashamed of voting her in. She is not and never will be Hilary Clinton. Hilary is no fool & she knows the issues. She didnt win but she'll back.

At some point she's going to have to come from under the rock and face the big wide USA. If she wants to run the country, she'll have to speak to its residents. Oh what a nightmare–she'll have to face Americans.

A vote for McCain and Palin

—–4 more years of Bush (or worse)

Women are coming out for Sarah Palin big time—-20% of white women (including the Wal-Mart moms) jumped onto her bandwagon right after her convention speech.

Concerned Women for America, arguably the nation's largest women's organization, with local chapters in every state, praised Palin, not just because she opposes abortion but because she is a "woman of accomplishment who brings a fresh face to traditional values and models the type of woman most girls want to become."

Equally celebrated was that she "will bring to the forefront of our cultural conversations an intelligent, realistic, well-grounded woman's perspective." For groups like Concerned Women for America, Palin embodies modern conservative womanhood — she is politically active, personally motivated and decidedly conservative.

Sarah Palin 12 & 16′

All you raging Demorrhoids obviously haven't read the article. The heading is a simple fact — the rally was moved to a larger venue. The article doesn't say they were ordered to move, only that it was done after "…some county School Board members and parents complained…" A careful examination of the facts proves that it is you who are lying.

Thank you Joe Biden for saying the truth about stem cell research. All of you upset at his remarks enjoy sarcastic snide 1/2 truths but you can't handle the truth like Biden puts it? Republican hypocrits as usual.

Community Organizer is a euphamism. He worked with ACORN. They're record is vote stealing, fraudulent voter registrations, paying people with illicit drugs. Why has the "Change you can believe in" campaign not detailed his work as a comunity organizer? Better to not open that can of worms

The truth is Palin is an extremist, liar and a bully.

Extremist? (Dick Cheney pales in comparison)

Supporting the war in Iraq and calling it a "task from God." Dragging the women of America back to the ice ages with her ridiculous views on choice, which has to do with the control and oppression of women.

Liar? (a boldface one at that)

Supporting the Bridge To Nowhere, and then after Congress makes it DOA, saying she did not support it. Also, saying Obama's economic plan will raise taxes, and leaving out that those who make under $250,000 will do better under the Obama/Biden plan than McCain's

Bully? (yes, a lipstick wearing one)

Why try and get the investigation on possible "abuse of power" turned over to a committee appointed by her? Why put a librarian in the "little gut versus big guy" position by asking rhetorical questions about the banning of questions? You do don't have to be overt or criminal to be a bully.

Hillary said it best – No Way No How No McCain.

OBAMA/BIDEN ‘08

Big hair, big teeth and a big fat liar.

Palin/McCain –Never.

John sure knows how to use women. He duped his first wife into thinking he was a good husband and caring father, and then ditched her for a role in the hay with Cindy Lou.

He used Cindy for…well you know what he used her for, and her family money.

He's now using Sarah as a last ditched effort to become relevant in a campaign that hasn't given him the time of day, until now.

And he will use all of the female supporters to help him continue the failed Bush policies of the last 8 years. Way to go John, some man.

Give up already Barack Obama and Joe Biden! Prepare to be defeated
soundly by the silent majority. We're not loud and violent like you crazy liberals.

mccain and palin are both just like george bush.

McCain putting himself first…

Pandering with a female
Pandering with a conservative instead of what he wanted (Lieberman)

He's no "Maverick" - he's just pandering and doing what the GOP wants him to do… he caved in!

The DNC actually looks to Obama for LEADERSHIP and direction

The Democrats & the Obama campaign are calling 1/2 American population - STUPID!??! Yeah that's really smart.

I've been tallying these comments at CNN for the last week or so - I'm counting 10 supporters for Obama/Biden to 1 for the GOPs.

Try it yourself

There is good news!

I'm so proud America woke up!!!!

Anybody notice that McCain attempted a ripoff of Obama's campaign at the last possible minute? Why would an experienced candidate (McCain) plagiarize his supposedly less experienced rival? If Obama is so bad, why copy him?

The change the country needs is not from old to young. It's from Republican to Democrat.

Bill Clinton's era was the best of my life.

Look folks the fight is on. Sorry I know us Dems are above your average Redneck Joe in Texas,,(they dont think) but its time we Dems get down and dirty in the mud to win this thing! It has to be that way….that sadly is how politics have gone now…nobody wants to talk about the issues because so far the GOP does not even understand the issues….if they did we would not be in the mess we are in. Look folks, Reganomics and Trickledown has never worked, and will never work. Regan is the one that yes outspen the Russians but also at the same time spent us right into a recession! Thank god for the dot com boom of the early 90's. Lets get Obama in there and an energy boom will be happening….and they we will all have a happy holiday season…yes even you dumb Texans…

I'm so sick of turning on CNN and seeing that old man standing behind that woman's fake mug. Can we get the cameras off these ugly people and start talking issues instead of what we don't know about her. McCain was practically a ghost before her and now he looks like a horny old man smuggly listening to her do his dirty work. I want to watch real issues not e-tv on CNN.

Why was it moved to a larger venue? The seats were half empty at the Republican Convention! lol

No question that McCain / Palin ticket is on the move to Win! This ticket has the qualifications and the experience to be our Leader in the White House. Keep on ….keeping on…….

wake up people!! She is a married woman with 5 kids. Keep your guns in your pants and vote on issues. America has been violated and cheated on first time by republicans, we gave them four more years to fix their mistakes, what they do, they cheated again. Now we are not sure whether or not to give them another 4 years to cheat again. Even if i am a republicain, i will call on my senses. America don't let republicans get away with their mistakes. they are good actors at denying theirs mistakes. If Mccain is only concerned about energizing his base , that is all he will do if elected which is do the same as bush, Work for republicans not america

agreed - we need stem cell now. anyone who's against it would change their mind if their child had ms, lou gherigs, you name it.. enough of playing culture war politics with this. Democrats 08.

For months McCain ridiculed Obama and called him an elitist, The One and a celebrity. He was obviously just jealous at the time because now he is absolutely thrilled to have his own celebrity. Too bad she outshines him. For a year and a half Obama campaigned on "Change" and McCain campaigned on "experience". That wasn't working so guess what now McCain is campaigning on CHANGE. Can't he think on his own.

Yeah yeah mcflight suit… even when it is a non issue the rethuglicans chose to lie….

We American people we have to think about this. For example, the Republican Conservatives Party came out full force and had elected Bush twice and the results are failed policies which left our country in a Economy mess and the Republicans deep down in thier hearts knows this. My question is to all Americans why should we reward the Republicans's failure by putting another Bush=Mccain and Cheney=Palin their policies are the same as Bush. We have to come out full force against the Republicans we must elect a Democratic we must elect Obama/ Biden Listen People the reason the country is in a mess is because of the Republicians failed Poliices.

I am a former democrat and Hillary supporter. But, I must say that Governor Palen is twice the woman Hillary is!

Hillary lost credibility when she put party over country and supported the arrogant, obfuscating, equivocating, inexperienced and extremely left-wing Obama!

McCain/Palin 08! They will deliver authentic reform with integrity!

Wasn't it just a few days ago that Obama was complaining that all McCain did was attack? Well now that they're behind in the polls it seems like Obama and Biden are doing just that. Hey DemMan, if Palin isn't qualified to be VP then Obama is certainly not qualified to be Prez. Yes Palin isn't Hillary. Plain got where she is by her own efforts, not because of who she married. If Hillary weren't Hillary 'Clinton', she'd have never gotten elected to the Senate.

Go McCain/Palin all I see in these posts is desperation.

Oh you poor disillusioned lefties. Face it, your Obamessiah is faltering. If you had told even the most ardent McCain supporters that he and Obama would be tied (and ultimately McCain ahead) at the end of the conventions they would have not have believed you. Clearly people are listening to what McCain/Palin have to say and they are finding more relevance in the change they are advocating rather than the socialist creed of "tax the rich and keep the poor in their place by giving them crumbs" spewage of Nobama.

Everywhere Sarah Palin goes we need a bigger venue—she's just knocking everyone's socks off—–

I also heard that Obama saw a picture of her today and got so nervous he wet his pants—

McCain/Palin 08′

Sarah Palin 12 & 16′

Better off holding that rally in Roanoke or something cause he's not gonna put a dent in northern Virginia.

SPENDING PRECIOUS TIME WITH YOUR SON WHO IS BEING
DEPLOYED ON THURS OR CAMPAIGNING WITH MC CAIN…hmmm

COUNTRY AND SARAH FIRST

Someone should tell Miss Alaska that there are 49 other states that she will have to consider. What a wake up call she will have when she realizes that a lot of those states have community organizers who vote. Oh, what a nightmare!

Obama/Biden 08

I would call Sarah palin, Bhawani, who has come from above to rescue John McCain.

Most dishonest and shameless people desperately trying to win one more time. Let's see what happend after they will tax health benefits.

You can always tell when the truth noose begins to tighten from all the squeals and squawks from the perpetrators. As a Hillary fan, denied the opportunity to vote for her , we will support the other lady and her running mate.

I've got to give it to Miss Alaska, she's doing a great job at deflecting the real issues. I think when the GOP resorts to pinup dolls, the country really is in trouble.

Obama/Biden 08

McCain and Palin stand for morality not rehtoric. Obama humilated himself when answering the question about when life begins when he stated "that question is above my pay grade to answer". He should at least come out and just say hei s against pro-life and that life does not begin until you are born. He can't say that because he knows better, medical technology and science have proven the unborn have life, and any moral - based person respects the basic human rights of "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness"

The live link to watch barack Obama from the election center page says Lebanon Pennsylvania! You are slipping CNN! Report more Palin dirt, I can go to several other sources and read about her affair, why isn't CNN reporting this?

The desparate democrats think trashing an American woman is great fun! They did it to Hillary, and they think Governor Palin is just another woman to get rid of!

But, this time they are contributing to their own demise! Trash this American woman and the McCain/Palin ticket rises while the other guys fall!

McCain/Palin 08 for authentic reform with integrity. They will deliver!

Its not only flip/ flop its out and out lies they tell what ever it takes even to his pow twists he adds and each time he tells his pity patty story he changes the story adds and subtracts (While we are on this he was not the only pow are t5he rest forgotten because of him and how does that qualify one to be president it does not.
As for McPittbull another fabricator and religious freak turning back the clock 200 years + for woman and they will be back in the dark alleys living with McPittbulls religious views turn the hounds loose just so they dont get lipstick on them .
The so called Hillary supporters on here were Republicans this is just more of their hot air.

Obama/Biden 08/12

If McCain were not worth it 2 weeks ago, then he still isn't worth it today.

We vote the the top of the ticket, not the bottom.

For a self described pitbull Sarah sure doesn't have any teeth. Her supporters are whining loudly about attacks. That's called politics, if you can't handle it don't run. What are you going to do when (God forbid) she's staring down Putin? Call the whambulance?

No one's really slandering Sarah, her record does that all by itself.

Yesterday I heard Palin claim that she put Alaskas checkbook on-line "for all the world to see". I looked at the "checkbook".

1. Although Palin made it sound as if this were her brilliant idea it is fact a national trend for government websites and she just happened to jump on the bandwagon.

2. The only information the "checkbook" gives is the GL account, deptartment, vendor and amount. No date and no check numbers making it impossible to prove that all checks written are actually listed on the website.

3. I did not see any credits to the account making it impossible to balance this "checkbook"

So yes America, she did post the "Checkbook" on-line but gave only the information that they wanted you to see. When I called the phone number listed to see if I could get any further information on certain checks I was unable to reach anyone.

This on-line "checkbook" is a joke, Palin is a joke and if we put her in office our entire nation will be joke to the rest of the world.

Charlie Gibson is the worst person to interview Sarah Palin and he WILL let America and his comrades down. He is a closet Republican who thinks everything is fine with the world, the war, the gas prices, everything. He didn't on Good Morning America all those years for nothing. He is thoroughly plastic.

When the GOP approves you, you know you're a powder puff organization.

WRONG!! OBAMA IS NOT LOOKING PALE AT ALL. HES THE SAME STEADY VOICE OF COMMON SENSE THAT WILL BR ING WHAT WE NEED IN THIS COUNTRY. AND THANK GOD FOR THE NEWS MEDIA . THEY MUST KEEP ON TELLING US THE TRUTH …WE WILL DECIDE FOR OURSELF!!!!!!! AND BLESS BIDEN ALSO!

He's a Lie, the school board did not want it at there school, the school board said there was a OUTCRY and thats why they had to move it, I have never met a group of people that lie so much to the point they start believing it themselves and if you are not smart you will believe that mess too like one guy said HOW LONG ARE YOU GOING TO LET THE REPUBLICANS PISS IN YOUR FACE AND TELL YOU ITS RAINING………Good expample.

Obama 08

Brothers unite vote Obama!

I've noticed over these few weeks how crafty the republican party really is. They call themselves mavericks, but they're really just copy cats.
They took the Democratic Platform of Change, and made it there own.
They mocked the very organizations (community) that helped shape America. They prey on peoples emotions, their sympathies, even their weaknesses. They say they want to unite america, but during these past weeks they have divided America even more. How many hockey moms are there anyway? What demographic does that statement really appeal to? Lies eventually are bought to the light. I just hope that it won't be too late.

Marion, NC

I'm still waiting on these two to come up with a platform that isn't a ripoff of Obamas (shake up Washington?) at the last minute. I thought Washington and Bush was fine? Such a huge flip flop it's hilarious.

Its not only flip/ flop its out and out lies they tell what ever it takes even to his pow twists he adds and each time he tells his pity patty story he changes the story adds and subtracts (While we are on this he was not the only pow are t5he rest forgotten because of him and how does that qualify one to be president it does not.
As for McPittbull another fabricator and religious freak turning back the clock 200 years + for woman and they will be back in the dark alleys living with McPittbulls religious views turn the hounds loose just so they dont get lipstick on them .

Obama/Biden 08/12

does anyone realize that PALIN,, refuses to answer questions?? she blabs BUT refuses to answer questions,,umm what does this tellyou?? shes not willin to answer peoples questions on issues,,, well<< MY FRIENDS,,, i sure dont want someone like this as VP or president,, someone WHO WONT ANSWER QUESTIONS,,,,, she afraid of questions concernin her criminal record??? or questions about why she doesnt support stem research??? well MY FRIENDS<,,, i would think twice on this if u support mccain/same or palin,, ohhh, by the way whats the definition of barracudda?????? umm in my day it was someone who was easy,,, well,, lets say,, did what they had to to get what they wanted,,, umm mmakes one think huh????

Guess what Hillary supporters, we don't need you anymore. So go back to your witch. Palin is the new Hillary

Stop The Intimidation!

I like that…

She's fair game in the world of American Politics…

Stop the pseudo Mavericks, Stop the Same Old Business.

Truth:
holding a partisan event on school grounds violates local School Board policy.

Republican Spin
the main reason for moving the event was to accommodate outsized demand for tickets.

I wonder why they didn't have it at "Walter Reed Middle School" which the campaign accidently put behind McCain at his speech instead of Walter Reed Medical School. Ha!

Why should the GOP tell the truth about anything? Lying works for them.

McCain and Palin could hold their rally in the school toilet because their lies keep growing and they need the soap to wash their mouths out.

We're going down, down in an earlier round…

Sheesh. Another election, another four years of Republican rule. The Dems blow it again. And it's all because of pride. We Democrats have so much freaking pride, it's unbelievable. To my fellow Dems on the board, I would take a more humble tone. All is lost this time around…once more.

Actually, in Phoenix a few months this has happened before. There was a public fundraiser that involved George Bush and McCain, it had lackluster ticket sales (quoting the venue owners), but McCain said they moved it to a private residence for "security reasons."

Yeaaaa!! We're winning and Obama is losing!
Obama is old news, people were sick of hearing about him last month! Vote for the Hero and not the zerO!!!

You mean the PALIN rally including john mccain.

She's the One. She's the celebrity. It's probably going to her head why she has to settle for VICE president. I wouldn't be surprised if she slipped some cyanide into his Milk of Magnesia.

CNN MAN….can you say Paris Brittany and Mc Palin……….

Alright Obama, time to bring in the large crowds again. The only reason he is getting smaller crowds is because he was accused of being a rock star (like that is a bad thing).

Some people don't care who is running on the Republican ticket, they are going to vote against the Democrats no matter what. Some people think that Republican politicians actually care about abortion other than as a means of getting votes and money, and where has that got them in the last 35 years? Some people think that the GOP is interested in protecting their right to bear arms, but the GOP only brings that up again to get votes and money. Some people think that Republican politicians care about stem cell research, and refuse to look at the evidence before their eyes.
It will be a total shame if the Palin/McCain (sic) ticket wins the election, because that will mean that over half the voters in America only care about which party is elected, and not what the party stands for.

Just another lie from the Repub's!

BTW, why doesn't anyone ask about the big gaffe that Palin said this past weekend about the bailout of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac? It was on Huffington Post but not the MSM?

Play fair and tell the truth!

Obama/Biden '08

Mccain = " NO CHANGE EXPRESS "

When you agree 90 percent of the time with Bush, that is no Maverick. When you use your gut in decision making and not your head, that is no maverick, that is more of the same. We have been fooled twice before. Not this time. No more Mc-Bush. The war in Iraq must end, we got to get our homes, jobs, honor back, we can't continue borrowing Trillions from China, and send it to Iraq. We need Obama.

I'm waiting for the the debate…I figure all the stories we have been hearing back and forth will cease after the condates have a real discussion. It's just amazing to me how we get sucked into all the hoopla. As a woman, Pallin is intelligent, but she is also being used by the Republicans. Why wasn't their rallies and "town hall" meetings energized before? Why are they trying to defend her every move, whether she qoutes truth or not? Now is who is the party with the rockstar…Come on folks…if you can't see through this smoke screen, then you are or want to stay truly blind as to what is transpiring…Let's stick the issues. That is why we vote, and that is what we need to hold our leaders accountable to - not spins and rumors!

Geeze, you would think these two are joined at the hip replacment. Go out and do your own thing McCain. Palin is not running for President you are. So quit riding her pig tails and send her out on her own. Or are you just scared the truth media will eat her alive. Not even her big guns could save her then.

Pumas,

McCain is using you. Hillary said she will not run 2012.

A message from a Virginian: Go further South where your welcome McCain, because your empty rhetoric and lies are not welcomed here.

Wooo, mercy daddy!

Here's the deal comrades. On November 4th, millions of Americans are going to pile into voting booths all across our 50 states and 5 territories. Over 90% of these citizens are going to already have their minds made up; indeed, most of their minds have already been made up. About 5% of the remnant will have carefully studied each candidate, and will make an educated vote based upon their personal convictions. But those who remain will cast a blind vote. Blind votes go to what people know they can trust (McCain) versus the unknown commodity (Obama).

If the Democrats possessed only 10% of the Republican's political savvy, they would have put the nail in the GOP's self righteous, indignant coffin long ago. The last two elections should have beena piece of cake. But once again we have been out-foxed by our scaly skinned, trunk bearing opponents. Way to go, Democrats! We're in for another long night on November 4th. Obiden vs. McPalin is going to end bitterly once more. And I am standing in amazement. We had it in the bag, guys. And we blew it.

The Republican blowhards are going to regain office once again, and fueled by Senator McCain's bipartisanship, they will have solid footing to win again in 2012. So we punt to 2016, and with a stable of young up and comers (Palin, Huckabee, Romney…not to mention Giuliani, et al), the Republicans will be all the more formidable. Barack Obama is the kiss of death for the Democratic Party, and the scapegoat is the media for putting a torpedo in the hull of Hillary's campaign.

The only thing about the upcoming eight years that will be similar to the previous eight years is the incessant whining that Democrats seem to have mastered. Remember next time fellow Dems, consistency is only a virtue if you're not a screwup.

"I can not believe some upset voters are willing to sacrifice this country for 4 or 8 more years because they are upset. How dare you make the rest of us suffer because you feel entitled. Pumas are a joke."

Wow, more baseless rants. Adjust your tinfoil hat a bit; your reception's out of whack again.

The repubs are liars. How do you know they are lying? Their lips are moving. They are the lowest form of humanity out there.

Why bother going to the rally? All they're going to do is give the same canned speeches they gave at their convention. If McCain wants to promote change, he might want to start with his speech.

The Republican party will do anything to gain power.
We keep hearing about Obama not having experience. My question is: What experience did G. Bush have to win the white house,,,,2 times.?

This guy has dragged the country through the mudd for 8 years. Now his croney want's to be president. I hope America woke up from whatever drug they were on?

The headline is totally misleading, It makes it seem like that the move was because of supporters and it was actaully because of school board policy. The school board is right. Students shouldn't be forced to sit through political speeches by either candidate durng school hours. Voting age high school seniors shouldn't have to support candidates they don't agree with.

Kevin, Obama doesn't need vetting. He was ELECTED. Unlike Palin, who was a last minute selection who was interviewed the day before She was announced. All fact, look it up.

Obama was vetted by the American people. Palin has yet to be vetted, and there are two agonizingly long months to go! I can't wait!

Could you imagine taking $43,000.00 from your family, friends and neighbors to travel back and forth to work for a year?

Mrs. Palin could!!

I can't stop laughing! My how the obamabots get testy with a little competition.

Palin is the joke, and McCain is playing Hillary supporters for all its worth.

Oh and by the way you liberal dem thanks for all the suport because evrerytime you lie and try to slander Sara she goes up in the standing of the American People and you and your empty suit leader Obama go down down down down down and soon you will be out and America will be saved from the insanity of liberals.

Funny how many of you who are not from Virginia are telling McCain that they don't want him in Virginia. How would you know??
Oh, and to the Hillary supporters that are coming to the good side - We'll find a spot for Hilary, where her own party couldn't!!

The attempt to lure Hillary supporters was not successful. Palin is not one half the person Hillary is. The current bump in polls is a temporary media fascination with someone who is young enough to be on American Idol.

That does not mean Vice President material, though.

It doesn't surprise me that a school wouldn't want the new superstar for the trailer-trash crowd to come set a bad example for their kids.

And I love the 'spin' that McCain gives the rejection: the school wasn't big enough to hold all the serial morons in VA that want to come out and listen to vacuous [R] demagoguery. If I lived in VA, I'd resent what he thought of my fellow residents.

Is it not disquieting that there are literally millions of morons who actually want to continue the 8-year downward spiral of our country?

john McCain is teh w0rst hax0r is USA, Palin be bad hax0r too!!

Can someone, anyone tell me a McCain/Palin plan for our future? Yeah the soccer mom can talk about how awesome she is, she hasn't said one thing about her plan for our future. Neither has McCain. Lower taxes on the wealthy is the only comment.

As much as they accused Obama of it, both McCain and Palin are empty suits in the extreme.

Another McCain lie.

Hah. I live in Fairfax. I have to admit, I was shocked he was speaking here. I think most people are Obama supporters–I count over 20 Obama bumper stickers to every 1 McCain

Misleading headline. Propaganda.

"We pumas" huh. I didn't know you could speak for more than one.

McCain picked Palin to take attention off of McCain. Obama was destroying McCain so that's no contest. Now you want to bring Palin into this?

Simple, if McCain dies we have a 1.5 year governor at the helm, a governor with a bachelors degree and no plan for our future. You can call Obama inexperienced, even though he has more than Palin ironically. But he has a plan, and that is more than Mr. Experienced but tragically plannless McCain has.

OMG!!! CNN FALSE HEADLINE !!!! They were asked to leave! who complained that holding a partisan event on school grounds violates local School Board policy.

This is exactly what I mean spin the truth to make yourself look good and watch they will be cheering when Palin says we moved venues to accomodate all of you. Yeah and booo to the school stupid 3rd graders (republicans)

Wait until Sarah is not with him. He will be able to use an elementary bathroom again.
I don't understand how Christians do not call her a lie on the bridge.

CnnMan, you're telling me Palin has a record?

Her state has less people than my hometown.

This race has become so NEGATIVE and ANGRY since McBush chose Palin….this is a RED FLAG VOTERS… McBush and Palin will be EXTREMELY divisive for our GREAT COUNTRY.

Obama fans attack all you like. Once the media starts to see that Obama is more of the same attack politics. They the media will bite the hand that once fed them. McCain/Palin is a ticket of proven change not just words.

lies they were told to move by the school.

McCain has support from those who want more of the same. Hope they know that all those Republicans hiding from subpoena such as Karl Rove will finally get away if McSame wins.

I am not American but I find that there is too much HATRED among Americans, Democrats and Republicans hate one another. I have seen the same thing in another country and the only result we got was the destruction of that country. Americans should remember Divided, we fall or is it too late for them to realize it.

They let Obama have a campaign rally and won't let McCain have the same kind of campaign rally? Ooooh that's unfair, what the hell is wrong with that county in Virginia?

So why did the school say it was OK in the first place? Seems to me that no matter what Obama's people try to spin there is a logical explanation. Nice try. Keep it up because the experts say if it keeps going this way Obama will lose.

Republicans have had to move a Virgina rally to a larger venue to accommodate Palins big and growing head. Democrats remain unstirred and released this comment; As big as it's (her head) getting, we're dead sure that it's virtually empty.

Dems: you should have vetted your candidate; B O is a joke.

Seems like the country "sank to a new low" under the current "maverick." Let's see how low it can sink under McCain…

Any of those Hillary supporters out there who are voting for McCain to spite the Democratic party, I AM OFFENDED. You would risk my future and my family's future to *spite* your fellow Democrats??? How selfish and completely juvenile.

All that aside, those individuals who once supported Hillary and are now supporting McCain CLEARLY were voting for her ONLY because she is a woman. Period. McCain/Palin hold NONE of the same policies, world views, or plans for our country. It's sickening that some view this election as a game or a joke. It's not.

Take a good, long look in the mirror. Don't cut off your nose (and your fellow Americans' noses) to spite your face.

Virigina is not OHIO MCCSAME get lost and take your BANCHEE with you !@

Oh, and hey Griff, did you read the whole story? Obama was there during summer vacation, man. Don't go on thinking there's a bias against McCain who wants to hold a rally there while school is in session. Good Grief! This is how this crap gets started.

Boy Mccain had nothing before Palin came into play. However, I think once the noveltywears off a bit and people realize that she is not ready to even be interviewed and the difficulty she faces just from questions she knows nothing about, and how she cannot be left alone, the American people will realize that she is byno means or in any way ready to lead the free world. We are in trouble economically, we're at war, maybe wars, we are competing ina big, big world and Palin is just not ready. Maybe another time!

We puma's aren't just tired of the last 8 years, we're tired of the last 200 years, the DNC and their sexist views, thinking that the good old boys at the top will tell us women when they will let us into the whitehouse, we prefer now.

Maybe the Media should setup a Truth Squad to debunk all of the lies that come out of the McCain camp.

McCain surged ahead in North Carolina and Montana today, and he also posted stronger than usual numbers in Michigan, Wisconsin and Florida. Full roundup here.

I don't understand what all the hype is over Gov Palin…when standing next to Sen McCain, it looks more like a father/daughter thing…more so, a grandfather/granddaughter thing. And I can't believe all she has a is BS in Journalism, which took her six years from six different colleges to obtain. Hmmmmm…interesting. I would expect her to have something more along the lines of at least a Master's Degree (one that she earned by studying, taking examines and writing a thesis, not an honorarium that is given). Maybe that's why McCain won't leave Palin's side? Or, is it something else? Hmmmmmmm…

What do they need a school for, just find a junk yard. They're just talkin' trash anyway.

Obama/Biden 08

It is amazing to me how easy it is for people to be misguided and used. I believe a fundamental question should be asked to all of us. Are you better off today versus eight years ago? rising costs of health insurance, gas, electric, natural gas, job loss, high drop out rate, high medication costs, war in Iraq, lost of life for the war. So I ask again are you better off? Answer that honestly rather you are a democrat, republican, or independent. We are in the wrong direction. Don't forget that the Republicans held the House, the Senate, and the Presidency for six of the eight years. They backed President Bush who played on the American People's emotions for a war that is wrong but now distant themselves from him. Half the big Whigs in the Republican Party did not attend their convention.

I have heard somewhere that insanity is where you try the same thing over and over again and expect a different result. wake up America. The Republicans are attacking on personality and the Democrats are attacking on policy. I rather the debate on Policy.

Stop the Insanity, open your minds and hearts and make the right choice. Remember to ask yourself that question.

Vote for Change Obama 08

I wonder if John McCain–has engaged hip hop, rap, or Barbara S. to perform as "openers"–in order to generate larger audiences?

Naw…he's just a man with ideas and reality. Let Obama use the smoke/mirrors–he needs it.

Boy, I sure hope that Palin will be addressing some of the startling things that I learned when I googled "ANNENBERG PALIN"…

I think McCain's choice for VP is an insult to women. To play the gender gap to win the white house and women votes is dead wrong. Women are not that stupid, they still want to hear the issues, and how McCain plans to fix the economy.
All the women I spoke too are really upset with his political games.

On the topic of Biden sinking to a new low…..I am sorry but Palin brought the subject up in the convention when she said people who had special needs children would have an advocate in her. It is not sinking to a new low when you bring up a topic that was said by the person being attacked. His response was true. If she is an advocate how can she be against the research?….She is full of garbage. Maverick? Right…..she shares the same political beliefs of one particular George W Bush.

It is AMAZING to read the level of angst among Democrats on these blogs lately…a little worried, are we?

Wow, now that he has a hype person he is having to use a larger venue! What the voters will have to do is overlook the hype and check the facts.

While her ex-minister stated he never saw her perform this activity, it would appear that all of America is witnessing her "talking in tongues" and it appears her tongue keeps getting tripped up by LIES!

Lies, Babies and Scandal. We don't want that in our schools.

VIRGINIA FOR OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!

They may be celebrities.

But are they ready to lead?

So let me see if I understand this. The Republicans have been spitting vitriol for months about a certain candidate's lack of experience and celebrity status. Where are you now angry bloggers?

Sarah Palin is certainly the flavor of the month, but she can't answer a questions without her cue cards written out by George Bush's gang. And her experience consists of firing a couple of officials for personal reasons and getting federal earmarks for her state at 20 times the national average so she can crow about Alaska's surplus budget.

The writing is on the wall…………4 years ago Bush gave the same spin mccain and his surrogates are spewing today, and we pleaded with these "so call christians" to spare us the same failed policies, but they followed their guns and religion and voted for bush and sadly some of these folks will do it again, and they will be the ones to suffer the most.

Sheesh, you'd think the Obama campaign just got slashed or something…

Lies, Babies and Scandal. We don't want that in our schools.

Is it just me, or are nearly all of the posts on this CNN "Ticker" pro-Obama?

As this article shows, and the latest polls prove, the Republicans are gaining traction and Obama/Biden is slipping badly. The wild and desparate tone of the liberal posts on this site also show that. And despite the liberal lies about Palin's executive record (a record Obama doesn't have), McCain/Palin is proving too much for the Democrats. Its going to be great watching this campaign as things continue to unravel for the Democrats, especially since they should have had this locked up long ago given the Bush/Cheney record of the past 8 years!

Yeah, because thats a fair decision. Obama can and McCain can't. If I was a school administrator, I'd LOVE to have a Presidential candidate at my school, regardless of party. It's FREE ADVERTISING!!!

Lends credibility to the school, and shows your facilities. Also lets your students see the electoral process right up front and in person! If i was one of those parents, I'd FORCE my kids to go, just so they can claim they know more about the candidates than any of the bloggers who just repeat their parties' respective stances like mindless automatons

From one outside venue to another. And that's moving it to a larger venue? Once the Palin "celebrity" calms down, these folks are going to be exposed for the liars they are. And why can't she go out by herself - is she not yet properly trained? She must be a stubborn pit bull. And will someone please tell her how to pronounce Iraq.

McCain and Palin like Hearts song "Barracuda" but I suppose they didn't read the lyrics. The chorus says:

"If the real thing don’t do the trick
No, you better make up something quick"

which means if what you said first does not get the votes, then change what you say and say something else. Flip Flop!

Men, Palin is not pro choice, you will be hit with the bill $$$$$$$$$ over the next 20 to 40 years.

Cue the Obama Whaaaaaambulance.

This story is way too upsetting for them to take. I expect another article smearing Palin any moment now as a result.

Shari that fish you smell is Pelosi. Enough Already I agree there are "amazingly stupid" Americans. They just happen to be Obama supporters. Get used to saying it, "Vice President Palin". Look at the upside for you Libs. You won't have to get on your knees and face Mecca five times a day.

Obama has the electoral votes, but if these people vote in McCain, I will NOT be feeling badly for them when their lives get worse like after they sent Bush back to office. Please don't come up with pity stories about how bad the job market is or how they can't afford gas and groceries or either.

If they'd rather be broke than have a Black man in the white house, then let them stay broke.

Sad when a school prohibits a historical event on their grounds and that goes for either side who would be holding the rally. Maybe these board members should get other professions like McCain suggested. History in the making and the board members think its disruptive. No wonder our school system is in a mess.

Do you rabid dems not know how to research or think for yourselves?
Not everything is spin or lies just because they're republicans. You're on one of the most liberal biased news forums and I guess you can communicate with other like deformed minds, but come on people! Neither one of the candidates should be in the White House, but I'll take YEARS of experience over DAYS anytime.

When Bush was elected to his 2nd term the front page news in England was "America is filled with 48 million IDIOTS! The Republicans are targeting the uneducated and the stupids. There should be a literacy test before people can vote. I don't want dummies determining my future!

Hmmm, liberal infested NOVA says no to McCain. How shocking. I absolutely love reading the talkback comments from all the Obama folks. All they can say is McCain/Palin lie, they are bad, etc. A typical dem response. A lot of hot air and absolutely no substance. Dems can never give facts. So when Emperor Obama doesn't win the election, I wonder what the excuse will be for how the republicans stole the election. It's the same thing every 4 years. Oh, and please keep putting the Obama bumper stickers on your cars. I love knowing who all the "lovely" people are on the road!

When will Palin begin telling the truth, jet did not sale on ebay, spending up in Alaska. Please do not be fooled by what ever she say and McCain going along with this.

Where is the substance in this hot air? Bush is done and they will follow his path. This is not the change we want.

NO WAY, NO HOW, NO PALIN/MCCAIN.

P A L I N,,,,,,A T T R A C T S,,,,,,,,W I T H,,,,,,,,Q U A L I F I C A T I O N S,,,,,,,

SURE… So is the campaign saying that the school system is, MY GOD, lying??

Someone needs to get to the bottom of this….. keep it coming…..
Oh, FU Rush!

Yeah, because folks are just jumping out of their shoes to come fall asleep at a McCain rally.

Snore……….

The Obama Whaaaaambulance will be sobbing openly tonight over this news.

Hillary 2012

I can not believe some upset voters are willing to sacrifice this country for 4 or 8 more years because they are upset. How dare you make the rest of us suffer because you feel entitled. Pumas are a joke.

McCain better get a refund from the Obama juice drinkers. When the school needs books or funds I home the consertives remind the people who took the resorces away from them. Elect a new school board. This event is part of history and the school board felt it would be disruptive. Bull, what loosers. They just deprived thier students a chance to particapate in history not just read it from a book.

McCain/Palin 08

Attention Obama Supporters:

Have you any integrity? I thought you were supporting Obama because he was a different kind of politician? isn't it really true that you like him because he's really really liberal and you like his personality, and now you want him to sling mud? I think so — because that seems to be all he's doing — like a standard politician. It's now time to make the switch. Do you have the stomach for it?

OBAMA JUST TALK…. NO ACTION….

So just because McCain couldn't speak on school grounds doesn't mean they have to lie about it.

This woman is a insult to everything we believe in and McCain is so out of touch.

This is because, John McCain is switching his colors and talk to match Obama's. Conservative Republicans are running as Democrats now. But be not fooled. This is not the reason for his recent poll bumps.

Stop looking for dirt on Palin because she is clean, maybe vindictive at best. The hard reality is that women identify with her because she looks and feels familiar to them. The problem is that they really can’t see how different she is from most of them. When they switch the Supreme Court next year, pro-choice goes out the window with it. But not for 4 years, but for the next 20 years. That is the wool being pulled over women’s eyes.

Problem is, women are not carrying this critical issue (their right to choose) in the forefront of their minds. They won’t get it tell it’s too late, and after the price for Palins seat proves too expensive in personal rights.

If one will sit back from their computer for a minute and as an adult try and reflect objectively about this race and the recent tactis by Mccain and Palin it becomes quite clear just how shameful and deceitful these two have been in this campaign.

No matter what one thinks of Obama's positions at least he is trying to talk about the issues. His most recent events have been centered on the economy, education and some recent suggestions regarding troop withdrawals in Iraq. Whereas McCain and Palin are completely ignoring any dialouge
