We have to be vigilant and prepared for the underhanded attacks on Barack Obama that will come from Mc Cain and Palin in the coming days. It is disgusting that they have to stoop so low. They will both spread more lies because they want to focus attention away from the economy. They should direct their energy toward telling us how they would work to fix the mess created by 8 years of ineptitude in the White House but they can't because they don't have a clue. If, God forbid, they are elected, they will just continue the failed policies of Bush. I hope in the upcoming debate, Obama hits a homerun by pushing Mc Cain to define his plan and then hits another homerun when he tears it to shreds.
Mc Cain is an old man who will do anything to win this election - including selling his soul. He once opposed Bush's tax cuts for the wealthy - Now he wants to make those cuts permanent. He once referred to Jerry Fallwlll and Pat Robertson as "intolerable" - then he chooses a far right extremist just like them to be his running mate! This is NOT a maverick - this is a conniving, me-first, dangerous LIAR.
Americans are not stupid and I hope they realize that this negative campaigning is being done to take attention away from the real issues. Let's hope this disgusting strategy backfires as fast as Palin's candidacy is imploding. You betcha!
Let's send Mc Cain back to Arizona to begin his much needed retirement and Palin back to Alaska to pal around with the moose she likes to shoot!
