  Qualifications???

  For all of McCain's vaunted experience, he still doesn't know a damn thing about the economy. What good is your 26 years in the Senate if you don't know anything about the economy?

  McCain is desperate. As my late beloved mother would say, some of you folks are "dazzled by bullshit". McCain talks about the surge, but he was and is still wrong about IRAQ. Hell, even George Bush agrees with Barack Obama's commitment to a withdrawal timetable. When you Hillary honks were calling Barack naive for suggesting that we go into Pakistan and attack Al-Quieda if Pakistan failed to act, George Bush was doing exactly that. That's intelligence folks. No, not experience, but someone damn knowledgeable about the big picture.

  John McCain has to lie about his record and his VPs record to win this thing. That tells me that the Republicans have a lot to worry about. No Dem was going to have a cakewalk to the Whitehouse despite what the pundits in the media would have you to think. The electorate, for the most part, is split. I agree with others who say Barack has to roll up his sleeves and go into the diners. He has to come out swinging in the debates and he has to have SHARPER AND CRISPER ads explaining what he will do for Americans (TAX CUTS AND LESS WAR)too. Look if you timid Democrats want to attract more bigots to the party, count me, and I strongly suspect, lots of other blacks out. I'm perfectly willing not to vote for another Dem Presidential candidate. Did Bill Clinton win a huge majority when he first ran for the Presidency? Nah, he didn't.

  I'm registering voters tomorrow.
