So Long, Democrats - The Daily Beast

The party I believed in wouldn’t look down on working people under any circumstance. And Joe the Plumber is right. This is the absolutely worst time to raise taxes on anyone: the rich, the middle class, the poor, small businesses and corporations.
Nice comdemnation of her former party.

Before I cast my vote, I will correct my party affiliation and change it to No Party or Independent. Then, in the spirit of election 2008, I’ll get a manicure, pedicure, and my hair done. Might as well look pretty when I am unemployed in a city swimming with “D’s.”

Obviously, there was nothing to aid Obama with since he wrote his own speeches. McCain however, has the same delivery of an Undertaker, and needs all the help he can get.

Why would McCain even ACCEPT Obama's speechwriter if he DIDN'T respect Obama speeches? Seems to be an endorsement of Obama.

She is very good and I know she will get an even better job and most important she will be respected by Rep.

Most of us saw how even the Dem. woman on the view behaved horrible towards Cindy and John McCain..you might not agree with them but to be so disrespectful, that is horrible...and I guess the ratings will plunge....they only time the went up was if Obama or McCain came and that will not happen that often, so unless they have another weird thing on their show, the show will drop in the ratings and they deserve it.
Where????...Romper Room was cancelled years ago.

Not only has this party belittled working people in this campaign, it has also been part of tearing down two female candidates.
If it's true and she's gone, then good for her...No time for calling each other "diva" and "wackjob" or going "rougue" and effectively dessimating a campaign by backstabbing each other in the Obama campaign. I'm sure she can find a job with the McCain campaign. Plenty of spots for traitors over there.
