I believe it was his son that made the comparison, do you not see that as relevant? You believe his own son did not know who the man was? Her religion and desire to keep America "One Nation Under God" is a good starting point.

Sarah Palin will have a hard time matching Ron Reagan. But she is a true believes in the Reagan ideals (as is McCain) and she could be our next President in a heartbeat if McCain kicks the bucket (although I do NOT expect that to happen, specially since McCain's mom is 96 and he's still doing very well). McCain is tough, Palin is tough - America needs their strength, which combined, may match Ron Reagan's.
it's not fair to compare mccain's mom's longevity to mccain's. after all, she is a woman and women ALWAYS live longer than men. not to mention, mccain's vietnam experience may have shortened his life by a few years. john mccain jr (mc's father) died at age 70. john mccain, sr (mc's grandfather) died at age 61. time will tell about john mccain.

Does that mean that because I'm adopted and voting for Obama and my father is a big wig republican supporter I am not his REAL daughter? Are these cheap shots because you don't like the guy or do you really think that adopted children are not REAL members of their adoptive families?

Does it not sound hateful? Apparently I'm having a hard time understanding hate....

They were TOLD to evacuate and they didn't listen. That's Bush's fault? And how many resources were there to help? And continue to be there to help? Lots. AND a lot of the aid went to NO because they were the whiners, when people in the rest of the gulf were affected too, but HELPED THEMSELVES instead of sitting waiting to be rescued. Housing crash? That's not Bush's fault. That is the fault of the greedy banks who loaned money to people who they knew couldn't afford a house. NONE of that is the fault of the Republicans, or Bush, or any political party for that matter. The economy? It's in a slump, but that's the way the economy goes if you haven't noticed. It goes up, it goes down. It is NOT a recession. And cutting taxes and giving tax rebates, not raising taxes, HELPS the economy. Bush has been doing the right thing. If you have noticed, the stock market GOES DOWN when Obama's numbers go up. Investors are AFRAID of Obama getting in office. You wanna see the economy take a nosedive? Elect Obama and you will.
Blah...............Nothing can get worse then the legacy that Bush has left us. I'll even give McCain a point on that one.

It is the banks that have been hurt with the unpaid loans although they remain at a very small 2% of the nation. 98% of us are able to pay our mortgage on time. Last quarter the economy grew by 3.3% more than any other industrial nation. As for the rest yes you would be correct. Why did federal money pay to evacuate NOLA? Everyone else on the coast was able to evacuate on their own dime or the state took care of it, but not NOLA. You want to live in hurricane country you pay your own way or move! Let's not forget that Mississippi took the brunt of Katrina and I never once heard them asking for a handout...Rita took out Beaumont and not a single Texan asked for a handout.
What is your source to your information 1. Clinton made it almost impossible for banks to deny loans. 2. Mississippi didnt ask for federal aid. They did ask for aid as I recall and Bush had to declare it a national desaster. 3. whats your source and proof that "Rita took out Beaumont and not a single Texan asked for a handout" I would greatly appreciate it if you could supply this. Please, don't source the weekLIE standard.
