While the issues that concern people like Dobson are important, no limited view should be used in making a decision on who to vote for. In 2000 &amp;amp; 2004 those supporting the Bush-Cheney campaign successfully appealed to people’s emotions based on many single issue biases, prejudices and concerns, neglecting everything else. The huge mistake in electing Bush, not once but twice, was the result of this success in getting people emotional about one or two issues and thus smoke-screening their way through. With this experience I hope the people are now smarter and this time around will simply not be led by a few, maybe well meaning, maybe just egotistic, biased leaders.</description></item><item><title>McCain: Dobson to endorse?</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/07/21/1211545.aspx#1212178</link><pubDate>Mon, 21 Jul 2008 16:13:34 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1212178</guid><dc:creator>David,  </dc:creator><description>After 8 years of George Bush and his Republican Party policies that have America in the mess we are in,know endorsement would help John McCain. &amp;nbsp;Americans is smarter wiser, broke and sick and tired.</description></item><item><title>McCain: Dobson to endorse?</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/07/21/1211545.aspx#1212188</link><pubDate>Mon, 21 Jul 2008 16:17:45 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1212188</guid><dc:creator>T. in Huxley, IA</dc:creator><description>Wow, I would have thought Dobson was stronger than that.
