That should take about 10 seconds! No doubt they'll "back you" in 2012! Then you can run against Caribou Barbie, because she's in the game!

I really don't see the point in continuing to trash McCain. He, to me is not that bad as a person. It's his ideas and his party that are bad. I have read that he refused to bring up the Reverend Wright. There were many dirty tactics that he refused to use. I used to demonize Republicans, but after reading some of the comments by the more hard core Obama supporters, I don't demonize them anymore, esp. not John McCain, who I consider to be better than most in his party. Some people accuse him of using racist arguments. I have seen many ageist comments by many of the more hard core Obama supporters. Would I ever vote for McCain? NO WAY, NO HOW. Do I have respect for him as a person? Yes, I do. Anyone who is not that well regarded in his own Republican party cannot be that bad as a person.

They tax the successful oil companies, they ALL own the resources, so they ALL share the wealth via a hefty check each year. This year she even made it better by adding $1200 to each resident, working or not, no age limit, just a government check. Isn't this what you've all been whining about that Obama would do? But you love her and her radical, hate America husband.

However, there was onemajor item that stood out in John McCain's campaign that he highly criticized Senator Obama for. That was judgement. McCain's judgement was highlighted more and more as the general election progressed to the point where hit was visibly very poor. It appeared to me that he used judgement appropriate for 20 to 30 years back when he gained his POW status. That judgement is like using an abacus rather than a computer. There was no way he could compete on the same level as Obama simply because the skillsets were different. Just like all of the lies that the McCain campaign used throughout the election process, id believe he was duped very strategically by Senator Obama by not accepting public funds. That was an extremely stragtegic choice that Senator McCMain failed to see, and he complained later that Obama lied to him to Wolf Bilitzer in their interview on CNN. It was not an attack on McCain's character, rather it was it seems to have been under the radar until Sept. when McCain had only a finite amount of funds available.

I'm sure that many of you had fathers, uncles and grandfathers that served our country. How would you feel, knowing that spoiled brats were talking about them that way?
Think about it!

But, if any funding came from outside of the United States, that could be concerning. I'm happy for the black community because America worked for them, and proved herself true. If one people are oppressed, while others prosper, then it is a divided country, but America is supposed to be open to all to achieve their full potential.

He did an honorable thing in serving this country. For that he deserves our gratitude. I have been reading the posts on cnn.com since after the election. The comments have ranged from inspirational to down right frightening. I think to myself.... What is the hatred all about? I live in Mississippi and since the election results, minorities have been put on alert about reliation plots of the KKK and other hate groups. This should be a time when the nation starts the healing process that has lasted through racisim. Minority children can't even feel safe in saying that they are happy about the new president. I am fed up with bigotry, racisim, sexism, and down right stupidity. All bigots should be ashamed! All racists should be ashamed! How dare any of them make others feel unsafe or afraid.
