It's as if

It is as if they don't know any better any more. All judgment has flow out and the Repub groups respond by creating racist material. The theory they all seem to work under is that maybe people won't notice. It's as if we are not even living in the same world. When it's all you have left, because you cannot win on basis of offering something different or having an idea, maybe even a better idea, but at the least an idea of what you will do to make this country better, then you resort to racist insults. Geez... Well the scorn that must be reaped on them will be well deserved and I am sure they know it by now!

Not Surprised Anymore

I am just not surprised anymore, the Repubs are loosing badly everywhere, so now all they have left are the tactics of Joe McCarthy. It is pretty bad if you have to use those tactics. What is shows is Republicans are willing to do and say anything, but this year, people know and they don't care, they are saying to John McCain and his ridiculous followers, that they simply do not trust Republicans anymore. Say what you want. I think they are also quite disgusted that Republicans have nothing to say other than, you aren't American enough. According to their Trophy VP candidate, there are parts of the country that simply aren't American enough. And this year it isn't playing. Republicans have mismanaged everything. They have proved incompetent and proved unable to run a government. Tomorrow morning their fate will be sealed if Colin Powell really does endorse Sen. Obama. Republicans at this point look desperate. It isn't pretty.

New York Times Article

I read that article this morning and in the end all I felt was bad for Cindy McCain, it seems she is stuck in a marriage, they vacation separately, they don't spend much time together, we know she goes on outrageous shopping sprees. Her drug addiction seems to be the result of unhappiness at home. It seems all these things say more about Sen. McCain really than Cindy McCain. Sen. McCain is obviously a lousy husband, the evidence of that was there with his first marriage, but he seems to have spent little time building his marriage and much time running for the presidency. I suppose it is the only thing he ever really wanted. She has problems, but what a lonely life!

Ouch

Will those folks on the right now attack another one of their own and throw her out of the party?

V.I.?

So what does V.I. mean? I am sure it is some Republican slam but I don't know what it means, can someone tell me?

Thanks

Worse Yet

The clothing thing doesn't bother me as much as seeing her two school aged children accompany her to many of her rallies. Although 150,000 bucks does seem quite steep, as someone who often shops at Neiman, they certainly do have a number of womens suits available for $300 - $400 dollars in the sale section.

But more concerning is that her younger school aged children are not in school. They seem to be with her all the time. My children are in school right now. Why aren't those children in school?

All they have left

It should be obvious to everyone, this is all the Repub's have left. They've gone far down the low road. But they've done it in a way it makes them seem desperate. The latest was Mel Martinez calling Sen. Obama a communist, and by then it almost seemed comical. What will they call him next, I think they only thing left is to first liken him to Stalin, then to liken him to Satan and then that is as far as they can go, I don't think you can get lower than that! Most American's see this for what it is, pure and simple DESPERATION. This is the year the Republican Party destroys itself! Who knew there were so many benefits to supporting Sen. Obama!

Taxes

According to Tax experts Sarah Palin is going to have to pay taxes on that 150,000.00 worth of clothing, I wonder if she knew that?

Charity

It actually doesn't matter if those clothes are donated to charity, because Palin is still going to have to pay taxes on that $150,000!
