Don't do that remember this was started by the McCain camp and it is being suggested they are doing so to turn people off to the election and thus keeping turnout down which helps McCain. If idealistic people are turned off that will hurt Obama more then McCain and Team McCain knows and wants that!

My personal favorite,

"I'm glad to have his endorsement. I condemn remarks that are, in any way, viewed as anti-anything. And thanks for asking." --after being asked by George Stephanopoulos about receiving the endorsement of Evangelical pastor Rev. John Hagee, who has made a number of controversial remarks, including calling Catholicism "The Great *****" and blaming Hurricane Katrina on gays

That quote is worn out and means zero. You keep spinning it and if you do not understand what he said then you should not be voting.
Get all the quote in here, he said that jobs and people are the key fundamentals to this economy.
At least he gives American workers credit while dumbo the moronic clown has never given American workers a good word.


AWESOME QUOTE by McCain.

Obama had better have his vest on tomorrow night because McCain is going to nail him to the wall.

He will be coming with all the associations Barry, even your commi mommy!!

this is not an election to stay home! these are probably not the best candidates that our country has to offer, but they are diametrically opposed. one is for bigger government and one is for smaller government. one is for increasing taxes to generate revenue and one is for cutting taxes to stimulate growth. americans need to stand on which way they want the country to go and then we will live with the choice that has been made. i think that a 3rd party candidate is well poised to make a serious run in the next election with our faith in the government at an all time low. this election will make history with either a black man or a white woman, but the next election may be an even more defining change in the course of american history.

For the Democrats, here are a few quotes you might like to consider:

YouTube - Obama Gaffes
OR

YouTube - Yes Or No? Obama stumbles
But this is genius:

Amen to that.

My other favorite this election cycle is from Huckabee:
"I'm not a Republican because I grew up rich, but because I didn't want to spend the rest of my life poor, waiting for the government to rescue me."
Yeah, I need to have those made into inspirational posters:

It's not an insult. I'm just amazed that someone who would refer to them self as an "educator" could spew forth such nonsesne. An opinion is one thing, but you are making accusations regarding the Obama family, as if you are a fly on their wall. How the hell do you know what goes on inside their home? Your comment was juvenile at best. As was your "dig" at my sceen name, which incidentally has family meaning regarding my late father, but thanks for thinking that one through also.

You still didn't answer my question. What subject do you teach. Or is that insulting to you?
