CNN

and what's another 300 billioin after spending 700 billion of tax payer money. get used to it. spend spend spend is a coming.

Obama's going to raise taxes on everyone (directly or indirectly), tax everyone's retirement savings (capital gains), increase everyone fuel bill (windfall profits tax), and he criticizes McCain on this?

Obama's candidacy shows that George Carlin was right...America's greatest resource is the moron.

To FAYE MOGHTADER – Could you tell us what he has achieved?????

McCain is eratic look who he picked for VP, but not just eratic he dosen't look well too me.

Go Obama

I am for Obama but he needs to listen to his own advice here and let the housing market, banks, consumer debt, markets, etc hit the bottom with as little govt. interference as possible. We will have to pick up the pieces and start from there. Govt bailing all of these out will make it an impossible, nasty, short, one term and out Presidency for him if he does win it. (See J. Carter 80's).

He needs to say "Pull the Band-Aid off...this is going to sting a little bit"

The McCain camp and their coward supporters can incite hate all they want. If anything happens to Barack, Biden, or their family; the World better get ready for Armageddon.

John McCain = DEREGULATION!
He did not learn from his mistakes with the Keating 5 and he still doesn't have clue about the economy.
Vote for intelligence this time America!

Obama/Biden 08

Obama is right.

"It's not Barack Obama's plan. It's not George Bush's plan. It's Hillary Clinton's plan!"

There. I corrected that quote for him.

This isn't personal!!!!!

Personal is the crap McShame's Team is flinging at rallies and web ads....but McShame doesn't have the you know what to say it to Barack's face....McShame is a COWARD hiding behind the skirt of his wife and his slimy running mate!!!!

Now my response is personal!!!!!!!!

Go Obama!! A judge ruled that Obama did nothing wrong in the deal with Rezko. So Rob maybe you need to move on. That judge didn't even say that Obama used bad judgment nor did the judge reprimand Obama in anyway. Very different from McCain and the Keating Five in which McCain did get reprimanded and told he used very poor judgement. Seems odd to me that everyone else involved in that deal went to prison. Could it be that McCain being a senator influenced the outcome!! Say it ain't so, Joe!!!

Like when Cindy took drugs from the clinic and got a doctor fired?? Nothing came of that did it?? Money talks......

You got that right Prez!!!!!!!!!

We want YOU in the White House!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And we are gonna make it happen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Obama/Biden 08/12

It is NOT illogical to say that the 'fundamentals of the economy are sound' AND that we 'are in a crisis'.

The fundamentals of our economy did not cause the crisis; it was bad decision-making and greed. These are not erratic statements and they are both true.

Not taking a political stance, but I am making a stance on logic. I hate bad logic, which is why I don't like politics, McCain and Obama, political commentary, and CNN.

Guess what? McCain dared to bring up Sarah's bridge again today, in front of her, in Wisconsin! I thought they had given up that lie and moved on to the new ones. If the town hall audience weren't stacked with their fans, I'd have loved for someone to call her on it, out loud, in public! Meanwhile, they got lukewarm applause and softball questions. She was asked what percentage of Alaskan oil is exported to China. The woman had heard a 75% number on the radio. Aha, I thought. She's the energy expert, she knows this. Alas, she said, "oh, no, nowhere near 75%" and went off on a tangent. Bet the aides know now! But I thought she was on the ticket because she was on that big oil and gas commission in Alaska, so wouldn't you think she might know that percentage? Golly gee.

McCain's quick spurts of mis-judgement in the last month have me really worried. Can we trust him with the button? I'm not sure anymore. He is too quick to anger. He seems like a really angry and mean type of person. He doesn't seem to care about anyone but himself. I guess you could say McCain would rather lose his soul than lose the election. Its sad to watch.

Republicans/Independants and Dems can probably ALL agree that they couldn't see many of McCain's moves coming. I thought "experience" makes someone steady? It's seems like a lot of "gimmicks/tricks" to me that aren't well thought out... just quick bandaid fixes – nothing significantly long term.

Not sure if this will play well in the international sector for the USA

CALIFORNIA FOR OBAMA !

hold on to your seats! it's going to be a bumpy ride.

while Obama's more subtle jabs are certainly negative, they don't compare to the vitriol coming out of palin's and now cindy mccain's mouths. my guess it the republicans will ratched up the rhetoric significantly after this. i hope obama dials it down a notch now and let's the old man scream at the wind some more. now would be the time for obama to take the high road. he's demonstrated he can be aggressive, but i think people will eventually get frustrated with the sword fight.

where is obama official birth certificate...as demanded in Obamacrimes.com. and how about that socialist group he used to belong to but now denys..even though there is proof. And of course cnn wont let this go through because it is against there buddy OB.

HEY ROB

maybe we should ask Charles Keeting.

What on earth is "personal" about calling McCain's unsteady leadership on the economic crisis "erratic"? Someone please explain why that is personal. Essentially calling someone a terrorist is personal. Calling a politician out on not knowing where he stands on a single issue is just political common sense.

McCain's plan sounds like a Republican "Welfare" plan.

Let's just call him "Welfare" John.

Why should my tax dollars go to support people who were dumb enough get in over their head. What part of "Adjustable Rate Mortgage" didn't you understand. I built my own home with savings and sweat equity. I have quite literally spilled my own blood for my home (gotta watch those air nailers).

The Republican party has lost its way and has lost my vote. The Republican party – althought I might agree with them on a number of issues has really lost touch and no longer speaks to me or for me.

Obama seems like a smart guy. He talks about the future, McCain talks about the past.

This Ayers thing is crap and everyone knows it but yet they keep repeating it. I have heard absolutely nothing from that McCain campaign. McCain keeps letting me down and Palin is simply not qualified – an up and coming politician perhaps – and maybe in better times with less at stake she might be okay – but I am unwilling to take that chance.

Texas Nick–
You're exactly right. The McCain of 2008 is NOT the same man that ran in 2000. I supported him then, and was terribly sorry that Bush won the nomination...and then stole the election.

I am of the opinion that the Republican party has completely divorced itself from the beliefs of it's founders. Is this the party of Lincoln? Is this the party of Theodore Roosevelt? If the Republican party dies, it's because it has become the party of Nixon, Oliver North, George Bush, Karl Rove, and sadly...John McCain.

HEY JUSTINE, OLD WHITE GUY, READY FOR CHANGE, HEY MCCAIN.......

YOU GUYS ROCK. OBAMA / BIDEN WILL NOT SOLVE ANY PROBLEMS OVERNIGHT, BUT AFTER 8 YEARS OF PILING ONE PROBLEM ON TOP OF THE ANOTHER, THEY WILL SURELY START TO REVERSE COURSE.

OBAMA / BIDEN!

I watched the debate and most of it was boring except for one small part when Obama commented about AIG and how they partied on taxpayers money and should be sent to jail. Correct me if I am wrong.....didn,t both of them vote for the 'carte blanche' bailout/meltdown bill......no oversight, no committee's, no accountability.....now the government has given them another $38 billion. Maybe this time Senator Obama will get invited to the party. Seriously I think they should all go to JAIL. Isn't there one honest and trustworthy person in this entire country that can lead us.

Senator McCain claims he is the "steady hand on the tiller." Yet, he has shown nothing but erratic behavior in his manic campaign:

1. Selection of an unqualified Vice Presidential Candidate
2. The "fundamentals of the economy are sound" only to "suspend" his campaign and return to Washington and meddle in discussions
3. Not even looking Senator Obama in the eyes during the debates
4. "Turning the page" on the economy when it is Issue One of the discussion
5. Basically calling Senator Obama a terrorist in thinly veiled racist terms on the stump
6. Numerous contradictions during debates.

These are just a few of the things that I can think of off hand. I can only think that the boy Senator McCain was would not like the man he has become.

McCain is such a maverick that he doesn't even need to win the election!

its so clear these morons macain and palin has no sense of what is going on in this country and these two morons are fip floppers. these people should be in alaska watching russia and hopefully they can see iraq and mexico from there

where is obama official birth certificate...as demanded in Obamacrimes.com. and how about that socialist group he used to belong to but now denys..even though there is proof.

Palin and Mccain are trying to have Obama killed, they are insinuating he is a terrorist and even in their speeche's you could hear people from the crowd saying kill him, it's insane and they should be arrested for these hate mongering nevermind run for the highest office.

To California Gold – He can't make it law because the Democrats have control of congress, remember? As for Obama saying McCain is "erratic" that's just another word for "flip-flop" and we know why Obama wouldn't use that word instead. Look who's calling the kettle black. (No pun intended). McCain/Palin is a better ticket than Obama/Biden/Ayers

It's true, McCain has been all over the map on the economic crisis. If he is going to panic and flop around now, what would he do in the White House where the buck stops with him?

Obama isn't perfect, but at least he doesn't flail around in a panic, worked his own way up and doesn't have a track record of chucking the American public under the bus to benefit himself and his multimillionaire cronies. I'll take that one.

B. OBAMA all the way to the White House.

GO OBAMA

OBAMA-BIDEN 2008

We already see John McCain's plan in action just look at the Stock Market today and we can thank John McCain and George Bush.

Yes the deregulation guys got their way and now you can see the results so, does anybody out there want "another" John McCain plan?

Obama is right every other day John Mccain is changing his strategy. I do not want a president who cannot make up his mind and does what ever seems popular at the moment. Obama/Biden are presidential. Mccain/Palin not so much, more like comedy hour.

Question for Mr. McCain – you keep saying the American worker is strong and our best resource, blah, blah, blah. Why, then, do you continue to support tax breaks to corporations who outsource our jobs to other countries? I can't figure out how this talk and the action connect. Please help me understand.

Just left the rally. Totally awesome! Ohio can't afford 4 years of erratic behavior from McSame and clueless Palin. My husband will be losing his job December 23rd, 2008. The economy is in a rut. Dayton is dying. IT"S TIME TO MAKE THAT CHANGE AND WE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO CAN DO IT!!

OBAMA/BIDEN '08

Yeah, McCain has been erratic and unsteady over the past three weeks with the economic crisis and Palin interviews. The American taxpayer has already had to forcefully swallow a $200 Billion rescue for Freddie and Fannie, a $700 billion financial market bailout plain, a $85 Billion loan to AIG and now an additional $40 Billion loan to AIG.

Now McCain wants to win this election so badly that he will say nearly say or anything to achieve it. McCain's wants another $300 billion of taxpayer money to reward bad behavior?

Actually Obama is being restrained to call McCain erratic; he's much worse, he's a dangerous hothead.

McCain wants to fight wars, bail out mortgages and bail out wall street. But has not given an answer on how he plans on paying for it.

Hey, Mister Obama! You say you first started sounding off about the economy two years ago. Then tell me who's sleeping on the job when you've had a Democratic majority in the house and senate for two years, but did NOTHING to rally YOUR OWN PARTY INTO ACTION!!!
"O"bama
"O" = zero

McCain's plans favors the fat cats. All this guy needs is a top hat and a monicle.

Just another example of this pathetic republican ticket that will say or do anything to get to the white house. I don;t think calling McCain "erratic" is getting too personal. If anything it seems to be the truth. Americans want a leader with a clear and well laid out strategy for the future. So far from the McCain camp all we've seen is flip flop after flip flop. That is not leadership. You can put lipstick all over this ticket but it still won;t make it look any better. A dog is still a dog no matter how fancy one might dress it, The American voters will speak clearly and loudly on November 4th and put McFossil out to pasture while sending Caribou Barbie back to the frozen tundra.
BO '08

NO ONLY IS MCCAIN ERRATIC, HE IS EVIL, MEAN AND SO IS HIS WIFE. THE JOHN AND CINDY MCCAIN WILL PROBABLY FIGHT OVER ANSWERING THE PHONE AT 3 AM. THESE PEOPLE DO NOT NEED TO BE IN OFFICE. THEY ARE EVIL.

Senator Obama was being kind to Senator "My Fellow Prisoners" McCain. This man is too old, and now appears to be losing it. And his vp is out there inciting hate. This is a disgrace to every one of us.

Obama is Chicago politics at their finest. That's not a complement.

McCain is so erratic. Seriously if you did a blind test without any tellers or names on the test and everyone of your answers were Obama's answers, and you still wouldn't vote for him? Hello it has to be about race. People are not voting in their best interest. I have said time and time again that people who make less than 250K and minorities should never vote Republican. They don't care about you!

Quit saying we don't know Obama. He's been on the national stage for 2 YEARS. Palin, what did she say, has been at this for 5 weeks? Obama's written 2 books, read them. McCain has books that have his name on them, but he's admitted to them being ghost written.

Ayers and Rezko, that's the best the Party that destroyed America can do? Do better...oh wait, you can't. Hillary already tried this angle, doesn't work on intelligent people. Americans, give yourselves credit for not drinking the kool-aid this time.

Obama 08

THANKS, Barack!!!!! We admire your calm and steady leadership. "Erratic" is an understatement. I'm voting for THAT ONE '08!!

Mccain Is Definately Erratic And Unstable! I Could Not Vote For Him! The Way His Campaign Stops With Palin Have Been Over The Last Few Days I Keep Waiting For Palin Put On A White Robeand Introduce Him As The Imperial Grand Dragon!

"Texas Nick" has said it CNN Use this as a sound bite somewhere..would make a great ad Obama?!

"That one" has a point!

What McCain is doing is spreading hate, racism, and discrimination. If you're a supporter of McCain, please explain how you could possibly support this? Can you really support someone who is crawling to the White House on Bigotry Lane?

McCain doesn't have a clue and never has.

REMINDER: Republicans had their chance and blew it.

Obama is calling McCain erratic today, which is true, McCain is calling Ares a terrorist today, not true. I think Cindy McCain needs to learn from Michelle how to be a first lady. Or a lady at that. If she was mad at Obama for voting against the first troop funding bill, she must have busted out of her botox when her HUSBAND didn't support the second one. Please excuse Obama for trying to bring your son home alive lady, that may not be what you want, so feel free to be mad while Mrs. Obama has only nice things to say about you, your family and the whole campaign. There really are clear choices in November. Sarah, how about looking to the future for change like you said in the debate, instead of say 1960 when you were 6? How's your husbands domestic terrorist group doing? Succeeded Alaska yet?

Missouri and Iowa for Obama!!!

Barack is right, McCain is a bumbling idiot with a fruitcake for his vp.

The only ticket that makes sense is the Democratic ticket and I can't wait to vote for Barack and Joe on November 4th.

O8ama/Biden

it's entertaining to see mccain wants more big government although he always says he wants less goverment involvement. i think he got bit by the socialisim bug.

OBAMA/BIDEN '08

Does anyone else take great joy in the irony that the man who was the most vocal opponent to the Martin Luther King holiday in Arizona back in the 80's is about to lose the presidency to an African-American? I know I do! McCain is getting what he deserves!

@ Ready for change-

thanks for pulling the race card.

Boy (can i say 'boy'? is that racist?), you Obama supporters really know how to stay above the fray and run a new type of political campaign.

Seems to me, you are the most hypocritical of all. The Obama campaign is no different than any other campaign i have ever seen. How is this not evident to everyone?

You want real change?

Vote BOB BARR.

We just cancelled our membership to the NRA for suporting McCain/Palin. Palin the one that shoots animals out of a helicopter.

Obama/Biden

McCain/Palin are lying racists, who promote hate and war in this country. If they are elected, this country will be more divided than ever. Their hate-filled speeches are designed to try and distract people from the real issues. I have already taken a 20% pay cut at my job and it is likely that I will be laid off soon. McCain/Palin seem to only want to focus on things that don't matter. We all know Obama isn't a terrorist, but they keep talking about it as if it were fact. They have been a complete disgrace to this country and their party. I strongly feel know that ALL Republicans are racists who would do anything to destroy this country in order win. You call yourselfs Christians, but the God I worship isn't a hate-filled warmonger.

Obama is the best person for this country. My whole family is voting for him including my parents.

WAY TO GO TEXAS NICK!

I GAVE UP LONG AGO ON EVER HOPING TO SEE OR HEAR FROM AN INTELLIGENT TEXAN.

SEEMS EVEN THE KOOL-AID DRINKERS HAVE SAID NO MORE AND ARE VOTING FOR OBAMA.

LET'S HEAR IT FOR NICK!

FINNALLY THANK YOU GOD THIS IS THE OBAMA I WAS WAITING FOR YES WE CAN....................YIJAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Obama's got the brains, he's got the plan, he's got the team, he's got the talent, he's got the leadership and he's showing it!

McCain said at the debate the other night that you need a "steady hand at the tiller" ... well Mr. McCain, that might have been the only accurate thing you said all night... and that steady hand will be Barack Obama's come Nov. 4th!

OBAMA / BIDEN '08!!! Yes we can!

CNN, stop baiting. Sure, it's a good point, but how is that personal?

McCain is showing signs of senility. We cannot afford to put this man in the Oval office. He is dangerous, out of touch, and out of his mind.

YOU TELL 'EM, BARACK !!!

McCain is seriously out of control. Like we say in the Army, "GOODNIGHT !!! ", he's "ate up".

McCain/Palin are doing their best to sling lots of mud in hopes that it will stick thus far it has only stuck with those with the same type of mentality as them which does not say a lot about their functionality now does it.

If we want change that we can believe in, changes that will make a difference not just for you and me but for our children and grandchildren. We want a country that we can be proud of.

To truly LEAD you have to have a vision .... a proactive direction for the country.

John McCain doesn't have this. You've had years to hear this come out of his mouth.

He's never been able to do it and can't FAKE his way through it now.

The mere fact that you graduated 894th out of 899 students at the Naval Acadamy DOES NOT mean you are a LEADER.

****

McCain now thinks that he needs to come up with something beyond character bashing, so he did.

He reacts, but has no foresignt or insight. That is why his actions are so erractic. Just recall what he has done last few weeks, flip-flopping many times. And it is not just last few weeks. I don't know who is now and who he will be next month, next year, because he will erratically change his action based on what he sees and saw, not based on carefull plan.

He is not qualified for a president.
(Just see who he picked for his VP),

I and many other business people across the nation will cut our work force and pull out of the Stock Market if Obama wins the election, that is not talk, that is a promise..........let him work with that.

If McCain could he would suspend his campaign and cry fowl for saying I am trying to get a deal on mortgage. Now how can that be when John McCain couldn't get his prisoner to vote for the first bailout when he suspend his campaign and then come to Washington for photo ops. He was supposed to veto pork but guest what his prisoner put pork in the bill and he signed it. Now who is really erractic.

John McCain don't have plan ain't thinking about a plan but just out there shooting off at the mouth. No Plan for nobody. Now the Prisoner(Repulicans) should start asking him to be clear about his plans and stop putting them off. John McCain and Sarah Palin we need a plan.

Now that Sarah pay more attention to John, 1st Dude is not giving her ideas or suggestions about a country he don't like. Yest Todd Palin first Dude could care less about what this country is all about because he would rather see the star of Alaska removed. What about you Palin do you agree with Todd?

I don't know what happened to McCain. He was very sound, stable, and principled before this summer. To be clear, I support Obama. But I always liked McCain. The long line of behavior – selecting Palin, supporting the extreme right agenda, smearing Obama, back and forth over the economy, "suspending" his campaign, etc. – are gimmicks that portray him as irresponsible and, as Obama says, "erratic." Geez. We need the old McCain back to galvanize, not divide, the country.

McCain seems to be throwing things out there to see if it resonates with the public. There dosen't seem to be much thought behind anything he says. He changes his mind the way a woman changes her dress gettting ready for a big date. Thats not sexist is it?
At his age one would hope that McCain would let this thing finish with some dignity. Why would he want the last national memory of him be a senile old bitter man beaten by a younger smarter more energetic man. He is really starting to look pathetic and shameless. His tactics and the tactics of the witch, oh I'm soory her pastor took care of that, Palin are going to force Obama to make McCain look even more pitiful. They don't seem to know what they're doing from day to day from cutting and not cutting Medicare to talking and not talking aboit Ayers. This is really amateur hour.

Is it November 5 yet? I am so ready for this bad dream to be over. I hear a Johnny Horton (?) song coming on..."North, to Alaska." Go Home Sweet Home, Sarah dear.

I wish both candidates would STOP BEING SO NEGATIVE.

Let's hear about the real issues of our country.

Maybe we should ask the Keating crooks how to handle it,

I wonder what people think about McCain's tax cut for CEOs. It is estimated to be an additional $700,000. Is he for real? Now that is a maverick!!

Vote Obama 08!!!

I Agree McCain is as erractic as his campaign.

When you are on a boat in a raging storm you need a captain with steady hands, McCain doesnt have steady hands. He is a risky gambler. The boat will surely capsize.

McCain just said he intends to bring up Ayres and Accorn in his next debate. Will wait and see. He still keeps trying to prosecute Obama for other peoples sins. Instead of focusing on the economy. McCain is soooo going to lose and they know it.

Only Democrats can reverse the direction of the economy. The same way Bill Clinton used Democratic principles to build great economic properity.

Vote Democrat. Vote Obama 08.

Fortunately, Obama is in a position where he can discredit John McSame because a majority of the American people feel the same sentiments. I just happened to be flicking through channels a short while ago and happened to come across the racists network FOX news. They are out to get Obama no matter what they have to say. This whole Ayers link to Obama is ludacris.

Let's face it there are whites in America who do not want to see a black man running this country because of the color of his skin. These people aren't worth addressing, but to those of you who are still undecided, please do not let the color of Obama's skin influence your decision. John McSame could care less about the plight of the American people. he and his family DO NOT have to STRUGGLE.

Racists don't even care if you are bi-racial. To them one ounce of African American is too much. The funny thing is we all have white and black ancestors. I pray that Obama gets elected into office and that FOX news is wiped off of the face of television forever.

OBAMA/BIDEN 08-12

McCain has acted WAY too risky for Americans in this time of economic turmoil.

I want a president who is the calm in the middle of the storm. Electing McCain would be like asking the guy who drove the Exxon-Valdez to run the country. Drunk and headed for the rocks.

Obama has stayed calm and collected from the beginning of Hillary Clinton's attacks all the way through the second debate. He's the only guy I can vote for.

McCain also said in the debate the other night he "knows" how to get Bin Laden, and that hes "sure" he can get him. It makes one wonder why he doesnt share this knowledge with somebody, you know? Maybe hes waiting until he gets in office so Bush doesnt get the glory, like when Reagan made those hostages delayed in getting released so Carter didnt get any recognition.

Alls fair in politics, especially if youre in the GOP!

McCain is so out of touch with the comman man /woman it's not even funny anymore! In fact seeing those two McCain and Palin spew hate at their KKK rally's is gett rather old. We are now hearing that David Duke was given an award at McCain's church? It is so obvious that Palin and McCain are against every person of color and in the "White" community (yes I am white) even I know that the words "Muslim" , Terrorist are just really code words for Black. It's the whites way of justifying their position as its no politically correct to say im not voting for that guy hes black! And thats the bottom line and it is a sad commentary on the state of racism in our country. I am not really sure how far we have come ......

I can't believe that the media is at least not jumping on Palin for not telling those people "hey, thats uncalled for and we dont want the here!" All the RNC did and now these KKK hatefests are doing is showing come Nov 4th there is going to be alot of BAD BLOOD no matter the outcome!

Veterans for Obama

Mr. Obama...
To date..all the standard economic indicators: unemployment, GDP, and wages–are trending pretty good considering the horror stories emanating from Washington–and you.
Despite that–you demonstrated little to the average unemployed or laid off American of what kind of jobs would be available in your "Green Jobs Program" which, by the way, will take 5-7 years to create.

McCain–wants to focus on educating and training people for jobs that are needed and availalbe today.

Go back to Chicago Barack Hussein Obama–you are not likely to find the level of ignorance and dependance on the government you are accustomed to.

We don't want handouts or pipe dreams.
We want respect and reasonable employment to support our families. Unlike you Mr. Obama..we don't live in a dream world...we live in the real world.

McCain is erractic. He always has. After crash and burning several of the Navy's jets, he wants to pilot the most powerful machine ever. NO thanks.

Too bad the Straight Talk Express couldn't run on moose poop!

Navy Veteran in Norfolk, VA for
Obama/Biden
Warner

This idea of McCain's is so clearly a bad one, it makes me wonder how it got to the point of him introducing it at the last debate. You would think that someone in his campaign would have realized how easily the Obama campaign could denounce it as a poor plan and make McCain look even worse. The fact that no one did says a lot about the kind of presidency John McCain would have. Thank goodness he will never get the chance.

People ought to realize by now that McCain is only going to endorse "plans" and ideas that benefit big business, CEOs, lobbyists, and the rich. The man has got to look after his wife, after all (said with heavy sarcasm).

I'm glad I had the opportunity to go back to school so I could get a better paying job. It worked. Trouble is... the Bush administration has put me right back at square one...living from paycheck to paycheck.

Any "plan" McCain has is likely to drive me right over into the poor house. I know I can't afford another 4 years of the same. Can you?

Pray that Obama/Biden wins...

enough already!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

McCain and the rest of Republicans had many years to fix the problems, improve the country and now we have one big mess to deal with, and you can not blame it on Congress that is constantly being bombarded with expensive ideas to fix the economy... the air is stale, I really hope Obama wins, and we all live within our means, and start restoring our balance in the checkbooks, our priorities and make this country great, as it should be.... we are all in it, time for a great change, and time for great actions,

OBAMA all the way, join the move people, we are better than the crisis, and better than the problems! We can take this moment to improve not only our live, but this whole country, it's been a while!

enough already!!!!!!!!!!!

I have posted 4 times about Obama and ACORN, whya re they not even showing up as waiting for approval??? Do you have filters to block words against Obama now???

As I've been saying – CITIZENS FIRST. We have to take care of our own, and our country will survive. COUNTRY FIRST is a failed idea in these uncertain times.

If you vote Republican, you will get what you deserve....grab your boot straps and sing loudly!

Here's your chance. You don't have to tell anyone. Just vote your heart.

Our country is becoming the NEW ROME. "We don't need another Nero."

OBAMA!

McCain has too many issues to list. I want to know when he will start showing true leadership and stop calling Obama a terrorist, and stop allowing death threats at his Klan rallies. I'm a disappointed white woman who will not be voting republican this year. Obama needs to give me some more specifics, but thus far, I think he's got the character thing under his belt.

Oh PLEASE, can the meaning-less attacks stop? Does the far-right have anything to offer.........America........ besides attack??? Lies????

We, Independents, are not buying the Republican-fear-attack-and-lie propaganda!

McCain has plenty of skeletons in his closet.... so be careful!

Well this is not the only time will see or heard Mccain flip flop on all issues.
So this is not a news. Mccain does not have any plans for American people, he just want to be president or have his name written in the presidency history.

He has no plans of his own.. which he claim. flip flop flip flop..Mc

Okay if u was really serious he should sold 4 of his homes mansion to finance or help the country. He fell into riches so he has no idea how to work hard to earn money..
Most of his life he's been pushed thruogh school by his dad, helped got into offices.
So what does he know.

With your plan mr... The Hospitals would be saturated with patients.
You would need half as many nurses again..

Well said, Obama! The moody tone of McCain's campaign has been exhausting to follow. If McCain would run the country anything like he's run his campaign, we'd be in for a very turbulent 4 years!

After reading so many articulate and well thought out posts, I have finally seen the light. I now know why some animals eat their young, I fully understand what justifiable homicide means and I also realized that it inforced my belief in retro active abortion. Thank you McCain, Palin, Cindy and especially your supporters. For the fist time in my life, I am going to make a donation to a political campaign. Guess who it is to! Thats right! THAT ONE!

If McCain knows how to get Osama bin Laden as he claims on a regular basis, why doesn't he let our military leaders in on his strategy? Is he waiting to get in the White House while American soldiers die every day? If he truly knew, either he is hiding it and innocent lives are lost because of it, or the truth is, he doesn't know, its a political stunt, and he's just saying it to attract voters.

McCain is full of it.

On one hand he claims he is for small government and decreased spending. Yet he advocated the Bailout Bill ($700 billion dollar GOVERNMENT intervention in capitalism), he wants the treasury to buy out bad home loans with an additional $300 dollars, and he is jumping on the bandwagon and shouting for increased "transparency" and government regulation in business (ie. – GOVERNMENT intervention).

He's scum, he's a liar. He sold his political soul out to his party. This is not the same McCain from 2000, but is starting to sound a lot like the McCain from the Keating 5 scandal.

He's scum, scum, SCUM!

President Obama, I'm positive I'm not alone when I say you've made me believe in this country again, or at least the potential this country has. Let's all come together next month and be the City on the Hill for the world again.

Ayers did not go on vacation with Obama the way McCain went on vacation with Keating. While he was being wined and dined, and receiving loads of money, McCain closed one eye and looked the other way while the Lincoln Savings and loan fraud, took the taxpayers to the cleaners. I am sure that this is not important to the people who lost their live savings..... Way to go John !!!! you talk about judgement..... and what about your little wallflower Palin, looks to me like she shouldn't be bragging about how clean she is ?

OH, I get it. Obama waits in the weeds for McCain to take a stand, then weed whacks his comments. Great leadership there, Barry. Typical liberal – incapable of REAL leadership.

McCain,I know you are big on "putting the country first" and serving "a greater cause" than yourself...

So could you please stop all this pandering for votes and lets hear about policies which can indeed get us out of this economic mess?

Hey rob... Let's ask Bush and Cheney or the Keating 5 how to handle it. Or Sarah Palin if she can formulate an answer to that question without bringing up so called "energy" credentials

Rob October 9th, 2008 2:27 pm ET

Maybe we should ask Rezko how to handle it. just a thought….
-----------------------------------
awww...how tiny of a violin would you like for me to play?

McCain is all over the map and is showing a lack of leadership. All he has been doing is trying to adjust his tactics to scor political points. Obama has been the steady hand.

OBAMA-BIDEN 2008

I think that the $700 Billion Bailout Bill, has provisions for helping individuals with mortgages. Why does McCain think there needs to be more. No one ever made me borrow money I couldn't afford, nor ever considered helping me with my mortgage. Senator McCain is a loose cannon and his backup does not have the qualifications to step in.

Shame on republican, my whole family is voting first time for the Democrats. We need change for sure.

Now, that what’s her name has been relegated to the back pages of the political history book, where her only stated merit will be that she freed Dan Quayle from the public humiliation he as had to endure. She is officially a bigger bobble head than he is.

The Reptilians should be proud that their campaign has been reduced to an iconic American punch line!

The Reptilians should just privately concede the election and do an honorable last month so they will live to fight another day. MAYBE they can regroup in time for 2012.

Continuing down the road the “Liar’s Express” is now touring will only bring out the whole Keating 5 etc, and cause the Reptilians to lose any respect from middle America. Reptilians will not only be a laughing stock, but a dishonored laughing stock.

This will result in no political clout for decades.

But hey, what do I know.

Is It Nov 4th Yet

what your comments cant be introduced unless you say something negative about john mccain?

I support McCain is this issue.
We need to buy these loans or else all major banks will go bankrupt. Imagine if these banks go bankrupt, Less credit for americans and small businesses....in the end the economy WILL tank!
I understand that it's not fair for american's that have no fault to use their tax money for this, but not doing this will be worse for our economy.

McCain and Palin have taken their share of stupid pills. Oh yea I forgot you were a POW and she was runner up in a freaking beauty contest!

Rob – or Charles Keating? I wonder where anyone finds any moral high ground defending either a slum lord or a white-collar crook who bankrupted an institution and cost many elderly people to lose their life savings. I understand your candidate is losing and it's got you upset but, the only person to blame for McCain's potential loss is McCain. He ran a pathetic campaign.

Come on Ohio!! Yes we can!! Ohio and Pennsylvania for
"That One"

Obama is aa complete fool!!! Don't be fooled by his smooth talk.

I just read an article about the Illinois sheriff who has the lovely job of evicting innocent renters because the home owner didn't or isn't paying his mortgage payments. This is the first time I have heard anyone talk about these people.

When we bail out those who choose to invest in property to rent to others, we are not helping the people who are the tenants. They did nothing wrong and yet we are doing nothing to help them. Just like we are doing nothing to help the average every day man/woman who are loosing their homes or on the brink of it. How does buying mortgages at the face value help anyone but the banks? and how do you quantify how that will help our economy? What data do you have to show the American taxpayer who is footing the bill for this?

Fact and Data, that is what we as Americans need right now. Not more smoke being blown up our tails. Too many politians think that American taxpayers are idioits, we need to show them differently. We have the power to make the changes happen, we just have to believe in our own ability to make it happen.

On July 28th, the day after his speech at the Democratic convention catapulted him into the national spotlight, Barack Obama told a group of reporters in Boston that the United States had an “absolute obligation” to remain in Iraq long enough to make it a success.”The failure of the Iraqi state would be a disaster,” he said at a lunch sponsored by the Christian Science Monitor, according to an audiotape of the session. “It would dishonor the 900-plus men and women who have already died. . . . It would be a betrayal of the promise that we made to the Iraqi people, and it would be hugely destabilizing from a national security perspective.”In late winter, 2008, on the campaign trail, Obama says he wants to bring the troops home yesterday — you decide — was he lying then or is he lying now?

Obama- Not ready to lead- Talk about flip flopping..

Has John McCain't stuck with one position, policy, or plan for more than one day before he changes his mind or "principles" for the sake of appearing to be a m-a-v-e-r-i-c-k?

This guy is more dangerous than Bush! Ready? Shoot! Then aim? No loose cannons in my White House! And to think that clueless Little Miss Ice Chip could be one heartbeat away from his leadership is more than mind boggling and viscerally frightening especially after witnessing the pure and utter hatred they have sown and spewn in the last weeks.

I am an Obama fan, but the erratic argument is very similar to the argument against Kerry that he was a flip flopper. Changing your opinion because you have more information makes sense. Calling it flip flopping or erratic is anti-intellectual.

McCain has been changing positions from morning till night. He has reversed or back off of everything he has said in this campaign alone. He's 72 and referring to Americans as "his fellow prisoners".....people need to stop playing like this man is not unstable.

This economic crisis will be with us for a while ... it is not a flash in the pan.

John McCain get's really enthusiastic when talking about potentially going to war with Iran or Russian aggression, etc.

John McCain, historically has barely had a pulse when talking about the economy.

Over the next 4 years we are going to need someone capable and interested in providing ORIGINAL thought on the economy in a PROACTIVE fashion. Ladies and Gentlemen .... that's not John McCain.

And if something were to happen to McCain ... Sarah Palin isn't ready.

Vote with your heads ... particularly in Ohio, Indiana, Virginia Pennsylvania & Florida.

Is it true that some states in the south may secede if Obama wins?

Everyone is up in arms about the "That one" comment made by McCain in the debate Tuesday night...I was more offended by the statement he made to the African American gentleman that asked what was in the bailout for everyday folks...McCain says to him, "I bet until this, you've never heard of Fannie Mea or Freddie Mac"...that was offensive to me! Does he think the brother has never been to college, and needed a student loan????

If John McCain is shifting with the wind on this one, what will he shift with as President. He is very erratic and unpredictable. That is a dangerous combination in these hard times.

Maybe he had better go back to negative campaigning, People don't like it but at least it makes more sense than the policy statements he is making.

Never realized that McCain is super good at Karl Marx's Communist Economics: "for the government to buy back bad mortgages". Where did he learn that??

Seriously, I don't understand how anyone can vote for McCain at this point. He's gone around in circles on big oil, the bailout bill, immigration, you name it. The guy can't make up his own mind and I wonder if he thinks before he rushes into things. He's no Maverick – He's no Leader. Let's get someone in the White House who can put some intelligent thought into situations before rushing in. Obama may not have that much experience, but no one can argue the guy is pretty darn smart. McCain? Not so much.

Cadaverick is erratic! If you want to know how well a candidate will run the oval office then look at how well they run thier campaign. Obama's has ran like a well oiled machine with very few if any noticable mistakes etc. He has kept it managed very well, on message, disiplined, technologicaly advanced like never seen before etc. mcPain bankrupt his campaign, had to go threw two staff changes, still has no message, still cannot get support from his party and had to flip-flop to gain what support he does have, has a VP who is not ready, has blogs dedicated to hundreds of gaffes, a faux suspension...etc
Is that how you want your country to be ran...erraticly and angry at everyone even our allies like Spain

If I don't have a job will McCain let me stay for free..... What about those Flippers and investors, do they get a break....... Maybe you want protection from falling values of your seven properties.

"Thanks but no thanks" I want jobs so people can pay what they owe anything else is a bridge to nowhere!

Texas Nick – I totally agree. John McCain 2000 would be completely ashamed of John McCain 2008!

I'll take McCains experience over Barrack Hussain Obama anyday!!

I don't trust Obama as far as I could throw him.........wait, better not use that phrase..........he's pretty skinny.......could probably throw him a foot or two!!!!!

Anyway, Barrack HUSSAIN Obama has ZERO experience!!!!!

If this was not the truth then I would denounce it. Poor McCain is calling his supporters "my fellow prisoners". Well, since Moses is history I will vote for "That One" to bring me out of captivity.

Poor lil old John.

Who woke the old guy up. This plan is john's and he is the one that refers to Obama's health plan as socialist wow what does he think what he is proposing is daaaaaaa
John Retire with dignaty

Obama has forgotten that majority of home mortgage defaults were in chicago because he was the champion of helping those who cannot afford the housing loans to be approved by his pals in fannie Mac anyway. He has also forgotten that he used to brag about his help for them to get the loan when he was campaigning against Hillary and now he's trying to tone it down.. who is erratic? Is it not a fact that even the homeless in chicago were able to get a loan without them getting the house nor the money which were pocketted by his corrupt friends. We would like to emphasize, Obama is not corrupt but he allowed himself to be sorrounded by corrupt friends and acquaintances, that is not a sound presidency to bet.

A VOTE for obama is a VOTE for the FOREIGN SPECULATORS. They will ? Help themselves to AMERICA. We need a President who is experienced and a PROUD American. You will get what you VOTE for. Remember, TALK IS CHEAP, and the foreigners are JUST WAITING to sit down and TALK.

I wonder if we will be buying out one of the 17 homes that the McCains own as part of this deal. Maybe then we can get the same spa treatment that Palin and AIG received after the bailout

We love here in Kenya Mr. Obama!

Keep cruising on....

Rob, maybe John McCain should ask Charles Keating how to handle it? After all, John McCain "palled around" with this financial terrorist. Who would know more about bilking taxpayers? Come on, get your head straight. The economy matters and we don't need someone like John McCain making it worse.

To those who want "that one '08" bumper stickers–stick that phrase into google and there is one on zazzle (I think is the site). CNN won't let me post the link it seems.
I think it important to show support in every and all ways for this great candidate.
He speaks on the issues, and not on character-sliming.

Can Palin be made to stop trying to stir up hate crimes???????
I don't know of any, but voting her away would be a darn good move!!!
Go Obama!

Maybe someone can help me out here. Why does McCain always says he knows how to catch Bin Laden. He said the same during the last debate. The last time I checked Bin Laden was the most wanted person. Why is Mr McCain not giving whatever strategy or idea he has to catch Bin laden to the government officials so Osama can be captured . Way to put Country First.

Mcbush must think that we are crazy. letting him and his looney conservative cronnies in the banks eat out money. idiot

Bottom line: taxpayers should NOT be on the hook as McCain's plan calls for. If anyone is rescued, ONLY primary residences should be 'saved'. People with 7 houses, 5 in default, should have to get rid of the 5. In our desire to keep people in their houses, we should not be protecting their investment income properties they bought in a frenzy to 'flip'. "Let the Buyer Beware"!
And I agree completely......McCain IS erratic, fanatic, combative, and does not see what the mainstream of the country sees from Cindy's Ivory tower.

this is a rehash of already approved programs..nothing new everthing is there and in place, the reason Mccain thinks it is good is ti can be implemented quickly because things are in place...but......
Mr..McCain why would I want to suppor this ? I pay my mortgage, live within my means, and this plan will benefit those who did not.
It will penalize me and other who ahve played by the rules.
it will also enocurage people to not pay thier mortgages because we can get it written down...come on..this is a plan for disaster...not for help.
This plan is a joke and once again shows mccain is out of touch..if this si so good why did not propose it right away....no ...no Mccain...No Palin....we cannot afford this type of reactionary leadership.

At least he's not inferring that Obama is an unAmerican secret Muslim terrorist sympathizer like the McCain/Palin camp seems to be conveying to its supporters. Calling someone's behavior erratic is nothing compared to the truly nasty rhetoric coming from the other side.

McCain is not the only erratic one. His wife is just like him. They sure would not represent the U.S. very well. Maybe both of them should answer questions about their Keating 5 ties? They act like two people that think they are owed something!! We do not owe them a thing!

McCain says "he can fix the economy, catch Bin Laden, bring gas prices down" etc... HOW?

John McCain looks like he foaming at the mouth when he gets up in front of an audience with clear signs of mental health problems.

If John McCain didn't keep voting against veterans health care. perhaps he could have gotten that stress syndrome taken care of before now.

John McCain seems dazed and confused and that's one sorry sight for an old veteran. I think it's time that John went to the old solders home and relax because he seems to be at wits end every day lately.

MCains plan is CRAZY and just plain discriminatory. I pay my bills on time, sold my house with the big house paymentand bought one I could afford. I can see stopping forclosures, and refinancing at better rates, but forging part of the loan...HELL NO..why should they get a big break when things pick up again. The market will suffer..they can sell their home for less than others, becuase of the break they were given.

I used to have so much respect for Sen McCain...and still admire and appreciate his sacrifices for the nation. But I agree with Sen Obama. McCain has shown to be an increasingly hostile and angry man. Someone who's impulsive behaviour would prove to be detrimental to our well being as a country.

Obama/Biden 08

McCain's new plan does penalize home owners like me who bought homes that we could afford and pay our mortgages on time. To help the home owners in trouble, work with the lenders. The lenders should reduce the principal and the interest rates, so that the home owners can stay in their homes. If they go bankrupt, the lenders will not benefit anyway. This is what is in the bailout package. For tax payers to take on this burden makes no sense. The lenders should take on this, because they were irresponsible in their lending practices in the first place.

All this nonsense about Sen.Obama being a terrorist should stop. He is a sitting senator representing Illinois and won 18 million votes from Americans in the primary (more than Sen.McCain and definitely more than the 140k vote that Gov.Palin got). Respect Americans choice. This is a democracy.

Wake up Mcain Thats already being done by the very bank that Started this mess!! You will find out about it next week sometime!

PS with no taxs payers money!!!

seriously...bringing up rezko? its so pathetic its scary.

I can't wait to see how Palin/McCain supporters try to weave in Ayers, Rezko, Wright, ACORN, or any of the other unrelated matters from their bag-o-red-herrings.

The truth hurts. McInsane is erratic. I'll go one further . . . he's unstable.

mccain is done. when he starts trying to run left of obama to stop the floodgates you know this thing is over.

That one is president of the United States of America

Bahh, bahh, bahh, that's Obama talking to his flock.

Stick to the issues BO. Let Biden be attack dog. We will do fine. We are already 277 (Real Clear Politics gave 13 electoral votes of Virginia to BO)...

Can McCain and Plain answer a mortgage question about how to fix it. Hell no, they are too busy trying to tear down Obama.

erratic is being nice...my friends.

go OBAMA!!!

Mccain country is in crises suspend your camaign please and move back in one of your seven houses

That's not attacking... that's what I would call "matter-of-facting!"

Keep on pounding your message President Obama... the people are starting to hear you over "THAT ONE's" noise.

This is just another stunt from McCain. We are tired of McCain's demagogue and silly gimmicks. Republicans bankrupted our country, we need them out! Go Obama!

Thats true... I am a republican and in times of dire crisis we have to trust someone who knows what he is talking about....

WE WILL BECOME A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY IF McCain is ELECTED!! No way...

OBAMA SEEMS WAAAAY SMARTER AND HAS DISPLAYED LEADERSHIP!!!!

Hey Rob,

Maybe we should ask Keating or Liddy...What do they or Rezko have to do with our current financial mess? Are those comments at all helpful? Or do McCain supporters simply have nothing else to hold on to. OBAMA-BIDEN 08!!

It's Senetor McCains fault. Of course.. and he created all this.. Obama's solutions to the problem.

Let's fix it.. what Obama is doing or proposing to fix the issue? of Course except blaming President Bush and Obama. I want some thing like 1, 2 ,3 4 . when he was asked he shared the emotion of pain thanks but what is his solution . does anyone know if I have missed it. that will help

Mac-temper is done.See you at old folks home

That's nothing new! We all see McCain for what he is – an angry, old troll. He needs to head back to Sedona!

This economic crisis will be with us for a while ... it is not a flash in the pan.

John McCain get's really enthusiastic when talking about potentially going to war with Iran or Russian aggression, etc.

John McCain, historically has barely had a pulse when talking about the economy.

Over the next 4 years we are going to need someone capable and interested in providing ORIGINAL though on the economy in a PROACTIVE fashion. Ladies and Gentlemen .... that's not John McCain.

And if something were to happen to McCain ... Sarah Palin isn't ready.

Vote with your heads ... particularly in Ohio, Indiana, Virginia Pennsylvania & Florida.

McCain has lost his mind. Someone needs to test his cognitive abilities. He must be experiencing the onset of dementia. God help Americans if they vote him into office.....and that inept psycho he calls a sidekick.

Hey CNN, I have a question. I'm Latino and I was wondering if you could put one more Latino right wing conservative nut on your panel of experts. You have Costellenos and Leslie Sanchez, but we could use one more to help fool us into thinking being a republican makes you rich, rather then the truth, which is being a republican means you were already rich.

Isn't it a requirment that all politicians flip-flop like a fish out of water? If they stuck to just one opinion, then we would be able to take them at their word. They have to keep us guessing until they get elected. Then they do whatever the Hell they feel like. Which is to forget those that voted for them!!!

This is just one in a long, long, line of rash decisions by McCain. None of his recent decisions have been well thought out.

Rob, when you vote, I am almost certain that your vote will be for naught! Rezko? Which hole are you crawling of?

Obama-Biden '08

Most Klan members are erratic and on edge, McCain is no different.

Obama keep eye on the prize!

erratic is a nice word, I would say he has totally lost it.

Rob – that has already been debunked MANY times. Let it go.

Voting Oct. 16 for THAT ONE '08

McCain is trying to rally the hate in this country! He should be removed from this campaign!!!!

Who in the world would want such a hateful person such as this in the White House-

God's fury will show itself to McCain and when it does, that's when he'll experience "real" fear!

American is in such turmoil that we need someone extremely bright, calm and with some real inspiration/vision

Obama/Biden 08

Hey Rob,

I'd trust Toni Rezco over John McCain with fixing the US Economy.

Hey Rob,

How about asking Keating!?!?!?

Obama all the way to the White House!!!!! The only one with a cool, steady hand!

I'm not sure how you can't like this guy! What he says and how he goes about making things happen around him simply makes sense. I know getting everything turned around will be a very tough job but I don't just think, I know Obama has what it takes to make it happen. Vote with your mind and intelligence and you can't come up with a better answer than Obama/Biden 08.

I watched McCain today in Wisconsin..........he scares me! Palin in still a joke!!!

TRUST Obama? That is hilarious!

Rob October 9th, 2008 2:27 pm ET

Maybe we should ask Rezko how to handle it. just a thought….

Rob, you're an idiot. Just a thought...

OH, I get it. Obama waits in the weeds for McCain to take a stand, then weed whacks his comments. Great leadership there, Barry. Typical liberal – incapable of REAL leadership.

McCain = sad, desparate, unbalanced, not fit for any public office.

Palin = she should be ashamed of her behavior.

Obama = Cool, intelligent, heopfull

Erratic is the BEST description for McCain

Rob October 9th, 2008 2:27 pm ET

Maybe we should ask Rezko how to handle it. just a thought….

Rob, you're an idiot. Just a thought...

At least Senator Obama shows up to campaign every state. NC is going blue, and it wouldn't surprise me if Georgia goes too, and well we already know Virginia is gone. The one who actually shows up is in the end probably get more votes. Senator McCain don't count us out yet because we are about to decide your future.

The Glenn Beck commentary by the was was pretty worthless.

Senator McCain has always been that way and will continue to go down that shakey, messy path to his distruction. The Republicans have tried to distroy the Democratic Party and Senator Obama from the time he said that he was running for President and they underestimated him and his abilities so now they are trying to defame his character with lies, deception, racisim and just playing to the Devils charms. They have even gotten the SkinHead Policeman to get up there at a rally and try to scare the people. WELL THE AMERICAN PEOPLE HAVE CAUGHT ON TO THEIR UGLY, LIES AND DECEPTION AND CORRUPTION.

Mccain is acting more unamerican and showing that he's full of hate!

McCain's the unintelligent, disrespectful person in this campaign!

Mccain is the one that is showing NO honor!

We even can't stand Obama here in Illinois. You all in the rest of the USA are in for a rude socialist awakening if you actually elect this clown.

"Erratic" is code for "old." These ageist attacks must stop.

say it to his face mccain! you coward!

mccain is being so dishonerable right now. what a shame to go down this way. he has become the ugliest lieing, nastiest politician i have ever seen in my 63 years of watching politics. cindy should be ashamed of dragging in her son on this nasty take-down. sarah palin is responsiable for these rallies that are now turning to nasty clans. why can't the american people hear who she really is? her back ground is both scary and dishonerable. she is not who she pretends to be.

The GOP is a stinking corpse. As soon as this last generation of right wing conservative nuts dies off, which will unfortunately take up to 20 years, the GOP is finished. Never again will we vote for someone we could see our selves eating pot roast with. How retarded is that?

McCain is worse than erratic. Obama's just being nice. The truth is McCain is beginning to suffer from senile dementia. He reminds me so much of Ronald Reagan at the beginning of his second term. This isn't a bad thing and it will happen to us all eventually. But we cannot afford to have a senile president in thise hard times. This is especally true because of his choice of running mate.

McCain will say and do anything to get elected.

And Obama's plan is what? present?

watch for RICO charges to be filed against ACORN very soon. The investigation already undway includes Howard '52 state' Dean, Donna Brazzile and the Lord High Obama.

Should make for a very interesting next 3 weeks.

Erratic? that's all... try offensive, discusting, and hypocritical to name a few adjectives for McCain.

Every State is in play for Sentor Obama! A landslide in November the name of Jesus!!!

Senator Obama has hit the nail squarely on the head.
McCain is becoming more erratic on an hourly basis. I don't know how people could in good conscience vote for him. He has dreamed of being president for years, thinks of it as his just due, well guess what bucko.....you've gone from respected by some as a man who has served well to an old screw loose nut job.
Take the woman from the back woods of Alaska and your little blondie wife and go back to AZ (even though we can't wait for you to retire from the Senate or lose the next campaign) so we can get someone who will fight for our state.

He's right!!!! McCain has shown nothing but pure erratic behavior and even more now with this "Who is Barack Obama" question...when there's only more or less 20 days before election... McCain isn't ready!!!!

McCain is just stabbing in the dark at this point. This plan makes no sense.

I saw Mica on MSNBC suggesting that when someone uses 'erratic' they're just using campaign buzz words.
That's a load of crap. McCain is erratic, hence everyone calls him erratic. McCain is too impulsive to be a leader of a country. He could be a leader of a small armed force, but definitely not a country.

Erratic is putting it mildly. Mccain is on the ropes!!

And we certainly don't need a leader who has incredibly BAD judgment; one who selected a dodger of a court subpeona! How can this woman be allowed to continue to run for this office when here she is openly defying a court order!!!!

Why isn't anyone questioning this?

I AM VERY PROUD OF WHAT SENATOR OBAMA HAS ACHIEVED IN THE PAST FEW YEARS,MY WHOLE FAMILY ARE SUPPRTING HIM.MY DAUGHTER IS WORKING FOR HIS CAMPAIGN.AND I DO WHAT I CAN DO ON THE WEEKENDS.MY HUSBAND IS A DOCTOR IN N.VA.AND WE ARE ALL OBAMA SUPPOTER

CNN PLEASE POST THIS:

"Sooner or later people are going to figure out that if all you run is
negative attack ads you don't have much of a vision for the future, or
you're not ready to articulate it."

-John McCain, 2000

This is why I supported him 8 years ago and is the same reason I now hope he loses. True Maverick for Barack Obama.

mccain and his running mate have scraped the bottom of the barrel, not only are they liers, and dishonest, THEY ARE RACIST, VOTE OBAMA-BIDEN

McCain's plan is nothing more than catch phrases with absolutely no substance.

John McCain and George Bush gave you their plan over these past 8 years, how did that work out for ya?

John McCain repeatable indicated that one should be judged by their actions well John, you get a failing grade because this country's economy is much worst off than before you and George Bush deregulated the banking industry.

Wow, CNN took a break from splashing McCain's attacks on their network to talk about what Obama is saying? Thanks CNN! And thanks for the commentary from Glenn Beck! I was almost going to vote for Obama until he reminded me that, it's OK to not to vote for Obama. Just because I'm a racist doesnt mean I have to face my prejudices and maybe change my mind. Thanks Glen!

This message is for all of you McCain supporters who rail against Obama's supposed plans to make us "socialist"?

First of all, you're very wrong. Secondly, would you all like to comment on McCain's plan to buy these bad mortgages? You know what that is, don't you? Umm, yep, it's socialism. You betcha!

President Obama bring it on home. Erratic is calling him sane at this time. I think his campaign is in dire straights right now and the are throwing the kitchen sink at President Obama right now.

Obama/Biden 08/12

If McCain's plan is so great, then why doesn't he suspend his campaign, run to Washington DC and make this plan law?

I was surprised when John McCain proposed this, or at least the way in which he did, during the debate.

He said that we "must..buy..bad..loans"

One thing you should know at this point in the race is the impact and the politics of language.

Buying up bad loans doesn't sound like a particularly good idea at the moment.

What the heck were you thinking?

Way to go Barack. We will take back the country from the Fascist GOP!

In this time of crisis we need strong leadership. McCain is only in this for himself. McCain proved he is not putting country first when he selected Palin as his 2nd.

Obama/Biden 08

Maybe we should ask Rezko how to handle it. just a thought....

Calling McCain erratic is like calling the Chicago Cubs a team on a cold streak.

"You and I together will confront the ten trillion dollar debt that the federal government has run up and balance the federal budget by the end of my term in office," McCain began, making his way to pork barrel spending. "Across this country this is the agenda I have set before my fellow prisoners and the same standards of clarity and candor must now be applied to my opponent."

HE NEEDS TO WIN IN IRAQ BECAUSE HE's STILL IN THE HANOI HILTON IN HIS MIND....

Do we really need Section 8 material in the White House?

You gotta admit. McCain has gone full tilt around the loop 'd' loop on this one.
