What kind of a hack is he??
Everytime I think he has sunk low, he goes lower!!
This will be played out a lot.
It has legs and is runing all over the internet.
He has sunk low because he repeated saying that have been around for ever? Boy. I bet this means he lost your vote - oh that's right, you weren't going to vote for him anyway.

Obviously you've never tried some really, really nicely prepared pit bull.

Yum!

The secret is: extra-virgin olive oil.

Kind of speaks for itself, no?

Ben Smith's Blog: Obama: 'Lipstick on a pig' - Politico.com
If ever wondered what it sounds like when wheels come off a bus, just listen to Obama and Biden ratchet up the nasty rhetoric. No pretending folks, Obama's camp is flailing right now and McCain is hitting a stride. Palin was a brilliant pick and all the cattiness is really blowing back in the Dems face.

I already found out he is a low person, whiner and a loser, but this time he is going even further.....well he will regret it...people might laugh when it is said, but later they will hear it back or start to realize what was said and meant....Obama you are getting what you deserve and you are a lousy loser.....and you know what "if you hang out with losers you become a loser"!

Anyone see a correlation between Sarah Palin....pit bull....Michael Vick, pit bull..........
They are both major distractions to that took a lot of Americans minds off the real issues!
The day the Vick plead guilty was also the day that either Gonzo or Rove resigned last year, don't tell me this is not done by design on the part of the GOP!

I think Obama needs to keep his mouth shut unless he's got a teleprompter to look at.
