Lets say the 'small town' that they say they care so much about has an oil refinery or some sort of industry that the town depends on.. when the crap hits the fan, who do you think the GOP is looking out for?? I dont judge the economy's well being by looking at the DOW.. I look at the strength of the middle class.. Who do you think is going to do their best with the middle class as their focus? Palin is a smoke screen.. However I will admit I am biased because I have seen Bush lie, cheat, and basicly screw the american people in the name of corperate profits.. McCain is not bush and is more moderate.. so I will say that I dont think that things could possibly be worse if he is elected..

However, do you really think being a moderate liar, cheater and screwer is really going to help us non-big business folks? |

I listened to her speech but couldn't keep from wondering what it would be like to get head from a vice-presidential candidate........?
Is that fall under the impure thoughts category?
Hmmm, a vp hummer, what would that be like?
Does that make me a bad person?
Other than that all I got from it was "Jesus is lord, from my cold dead fingers, I'm a mom, I was mayor of a hick town and governor of a state (that doesn't have as many year round residents as New York City )and the feeling that her favorite book is the latest Smith & Wesson catalog.
She is cute but she doesn't seem all that genuine to me, she was a reporter ( sports I am told) but I never trusted reporters news, sports or otherwise.
Leave it to those wacky republicans to mix things up in a campaign. The most fun will be Biden vs. Palin debates ( is there more than one televised vp candidate debate?)
I am so glad I am an un-enrolled voter this year.  |
Why even try.........

Nebe and Likwid were wondering the same thing when they watched Biden's address.  |

Isn't Nebe your vice President?
   
Come on Steve, you know the country will be a lot better off with an experienced President rather than one with charisma and no real way to accomplish all of his promises, face it, he just wants to be President just because it is his dream. |

While the republicans may favor big business, it was the dems (Clintons in particular) who forced NAFTA down our throat, that hasn't done a whole lot of good for the little guy and helped big business get manufacturing cheaper in other countries...
I like her, and her guns. She is my kind of girl.

Blame Clinton?
Wasn't NAFTA initiated under George Bush 41?
