Hell, Obama evens thinks that there are 58 states.

The townhall maneuvering was a joke and bluff easily called and slapped away, it isn't even a debate and was devised to increase the Senator's public reach when he had none...round two - See Gov. Palin.

Go ahead and search what I said about Clinton before. Probably not too much of anything.

Don't get yourself all worked up. You might have a stroke!
So why would it be different from Danielle thinking that Huckabee is making sense? Why call her out on caring about what he is saying, unless you just want to start a flame war?

You think you said not much of anything? You previously blamed him for 9/11, now you love the guy? Don't you get it, you think he is making sense because he said positive things about your candidate. The same attitude applies to a Democrat liking what Huckabee is saying, because they are saying positive things about their candidate.

Since you didn't run the search, here are your prior thoughts on Clinton (before he started saying positive things in the press about McCain). For someone who you think is responsible for the attack on 9/11, you sure changed your tune fast once he was positive towards your candidate...

So before you attack Danielle - take a look at your own words.

I own a small business and of course I take all the deductions I can; it would be stupid not to. And I pay a lot in taxes.

Some idiot is more worried about a million or so dollars in production costs over 700 billion of tax payers money (your's and mine).
Any sound and reasonable person would address the problem of greater magnitude and try to resolve that issue.
Sounds like the idiot is of like mind with Biden/Obama.

He was for it before he was against it..

Is that really the best you can do?
Obama prefers standard debates, McCain prefers town halls. - McCain is not happy because he lost that battle (this is why he runs adds with lies so he says)

Both candidates use teleprompter. Your candidate has a hard time reading his! (Think of the acceptance speech in front of the green background)

As for the 57 states (gets your gaffs right!!!) after campaigning full time for a year he made an error...instead of saying "forty... he said fifty..." states completed and he has to get too...

McCain supporters are in full blown panic mode trying to convince people that their guy is a leader when he looks nothing more than a fool. A fool who even let his own party pick that idiot Palin!

I guess that means not picking Huckabee was a good idea.

I agree...That to me would be more of a 'leadership' move. That is why I think this was a ploy. He does not put his country first and he is not a leader. He is irrational and does not use good judgement at all. I would have been way impressed with him if he had put SP's debate tonight. I would have been impressed with her as well for dealing with the issue at a moments notice... But that is not the case...

This isn't daily life stuff. This is emergency stuff. When emergency stuff comes up we prioritize and dealing with the emergency comes first.
