In fact, it was already known at that election that he was so bad, yet Republicans pushed this man forward as the person best to lead. It was a sham. You said that he needed 4 more years to finish the job and you lied. The red states were wrong. Neocons were wrong.

What's to keep one from thinking that you are NOT lying yet again in pushing McCain? Your record is not good.

This is a terrible post. First of all the alternative to Bush was John Kerry... so even if you didn't like Bush, c'mon, John Kerry. (for the record I did vote Not Bush, or in Kerry's favor, but I can understand if someone didn't like Bush that much, they voted for him anyway). Second, gas prices have especially shot up since the democrats took over the house and the dollar dropped like a rock in the last year.

Lastly, this is one more lame attempt at a bi-partisan superiority post. What happened to the best man for the job? Too many people take pre-determined sides, including the politicians themselves. One thing McCain has unquestionably over Obama - he is at least saying that he will work on both sides of the aisle. This is what I thought Obama was saying, real early in the campaign. Turns out he's as one-sided as they come, and I'm ashamed of myself for voting for him in the primary.

The truth is, BOTH parties don't give a hoot about any of us. They are all typical politicians, make empty promises, get elected, never deliver and blame it on the other party. The vicious circle continues this Nov.

Its not the democrats fault that the Republicans filabuster every single thing!!! They have been the most obstructionist republicans in history. So blame the republicans for not being team players.

Yes it did make me happy when he picked Biden. I knew then he was finished. Not a lot of Americans like Biden.

This was an excellent inquiry back when McCain was running and it applies today. Pubs have exercised historically bad judgment, and this year Romney is being offered up. He stinks and Pubs continue to lie, deceive, try to suppress votes, skew polls in their favor, and pretend as if Republican presidents are a good thing. What fools.

Enjoy President Obama's second term.

Everyone please disregard ALexus as this person has proven him/herself to be the single most profoudly moronic poster on CD. I rarely respond to their threads but I feel like I always get a laugh out of reading them. This poster uses the same exact MO in every single post. It is literally an almost verbatim rubric they use. Exemplified as follows:

Stupid statement......Obama praise....Republican insult.....Stupid statement that attempts (poorly) to criticize GOP policies......Obama praise......stupid statement that attempts (again, poorly) to link a positive with Obama......stupid if, then statement.......and of course punctuated with an emoticon or three......and ended again with another short-bus caliber insult.



Move along...nothing to see here.
