"For the sake of the country, I hope he gets it right by Nov. 4. Otherwise, Obama gets a chance to complete Jimmy Carter’s second term in office." McCain and this empty set of rhetoric really highlight why some many support Obama. Here in Virginia, the move is real. Republicans have no standing on economics, national security and a very weak standing on social issues. I want Paul Volcker economics! “For the sake of the country, I hope he gets it right by Nov. 4.

It is one of the funniest skits I've seen in a few years. SNL gives a great satire of what happened during the VP debate. Palin constantly changed the subject. She did not really answer any questions and focused primarily on being relatable to the public. This no doubt contributes to the fact that many polls believe that Biden won the debate. Also of note, gallup has Obama up by 7 points in the national polls. Here is a link at Hotair that has clips of the SNL VP debate and The Bailout Press Conference. http://hotair.com/archives/2008/10/05/video-snl-on-the-debate-and-the-bailout/ Thanks Doug for the link to the skit.

He (Romney) specifically mentioned an emerging China as a potential threat. If the U.S. is passed by the communist nation in the economic sector, it is only a matter of time before China's military is stronger as well, he said. Romney said he attended the Beijing Olympics and noted the Chinese "love free enterprise" but not freedom. He said CNN is censored and television screens often go black. "I'm sure FOX isn't even allowed over there," he said, again to enthusiastic applause. He said Russia plans to "drain" the U.S. economy through energy demands and terrorists simply want to kill us. "That's why it's so critical John McCain is elected," he said. "He'll keep the economy up and taxes down. We'll get energy independent."

He said Russia plans to “drain” the U.S. economy through energy demands and terrorists simply want to kill us. “That’s why it’s so critical John McCain is elected,” he said. “He’ll keep the economy up and taxes down. We’ll get energy independent.”

Palin is rabidly liked by the small group of simpleton social conservatives that opposed Romney for suspicious reasons, but she and McCain are deal breakers for the rest of the Republicans. If the Democratic candidate was more experienced and wasn't such a Leftist I think we would be looking at a Democratic landslide instead of just a sound victory. I hope Obama doesn't screw it up too bad before 2012 comes around--especially the Supreme Court and Iraq. And I agree with the post above--I hope Romney still wants to take another shoot at 2012 despite how badly he was treated by some in his own party.

I'm afraid (well, not really afraid since I don't think much of McCain anyway) that the republican ticket is toast. And it won't be getting my vote either. Let's hope Romney still has it in him to give it another shot in 2012. Yes, I have noticed that about McCain’s conservative policies…having Mitt’s fingerprints all over them.

McCain is going for what goal? Who knows. Fla lost. VA lost. Now Mich. All which Mitt would have delviered including Nevada and Colorado. His pick of Palin gave him a needed exposure and bump, but she is proving to be just perky, with no substance. She toddled along the other night, dancing to her own questions, and not those of the moderator. Often repeating herself, or using lines from past Reagan debates. McCain has killed any career she might have had, had she waited 8 or so years to run for an office like this. He's done her no favors. I don't care for her for number of reasons, but not haveing enough braincells rattling upstairs is a biggie. She looked good and camera, and sounded funny and folksy. but this is the Presidency (with McCain being 72), and with all that is going on, I'd rather have someone a heck of a lot smarter than my kids kindergarten teacher leading the charge. I do get the feeling that all McCain wants is the title, and not the job. If that was the case, he should have picked someone to step in, that the country is comfty with for more than a mooosehunt and beer. His twilight tour is about to happen. John, so true.

Wouldn't you love to get a first-person account from him of working for Mitt vs. working for McCain? I'm guessing there was a world of difference between the two.
