Obama's and Biden's only experience is in the US Senate. Their total experience base is as Washington insiders. They also are not running on public funding, but rather the money from wealthy celebrities and influence buyers in an attempt to run an expensive targeted marketing campaign. On the other hand McCain has long had the nick name of Maverick and has lead political action reform efforts in Washington and Palin is certainly a refreshing new face for change. Also, McCain and Palin are running a straight forward campaign using limited public money as many reformers have long advocated.</description></item><item><title>Obama mocks McCain-Palin as 'change'</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/09/06/1358110.aspx#1358166</link><pubDate>Sat, 06 Sep 2008 19:40:36 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1358166</guid><dc:creator>COPY CAT</dc:creator><description>MCSAME &amp;nbsp;/ &amp;nbsp;MCPALIN&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;JUST FOR YOU PEOPLE WHO KEEP SAYING OBAMA IS NOT READY TO LEAD.

The media was only doing their job. Because of this they are playing the guilt trip on the media and using them to promote her ideas, some of them false, without allowing them an interview. This tactic will ensure everyone knows her and those false information she is touting, without any reporter or panelist having a chance to ask her a question or let her answer to all these allegations hanging over her head, such as: -&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;1.	Why say you put the Gov. plane on Ebay and McCain boats she sold it at a profit when the plane was sold by private treaty at a loss of some $600,000.00&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;2	Why boast about saying no to the bridge to nowhere when she was first for it and when it became political expedient she was against it.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;3 &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Why reassure parents with special needs children she will support their cause when she cut the budget for funding those special needs children in Alaska.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;4	She declares she is not a part of Washington yet she used lobbyists to obtain $27m in earmarks.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I believe they plan to keep her away from the media for as long as it takes to get voters locked onto her and create a support base which they hope will stand firm even after the false and half truths come to light during the debate.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The media should close ranks on this and do not allow the GOP to manipulate them in this way. If GOP wants free press it should come with interviews, other wise any publicity she gets should be paid for.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Obama has every right to call her out on these issues. I am waiting for our female surrogates to take it to her. Have no mercy on this female. She like her counterpart McCain speaks with a forked tongue.

Also take note of the following, that we're going to be looking into next week. Within days of Palin's selection, at least seven of her aides and associates, who had previously agreed to cooperate with the trooper-gate investigation, informed investigator Steve Branchflower that they were now no longer willing to be deposed. Note too that this was immediately after the McCain team deployed what George Stephanopoulos reported was a &amp;quot;rapid response team of about ten operatives that includes lawyers&amp;quot; to the state. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;So the question is: what contact did representatives of the McCain campaign have with these aides that had agreed to testify but within days of her selection took back their pledge and are now refusing to cooperate?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Team McCain and the Trooper&lt;br&gt;Nominee's ally moves to curb probe of Palin&lt;br&gt;Key Alaska allies of John McCain are trying to derail a politically charged investigation into Gov. Sarah Palin's firing of her public safety commissioner in order to prevent a so-called &amp;quot;October surprise&amp;quot; that would produce embarrassing information about the vice presidential candidate on the eve of the election. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In a move endorsed by the McCain campaign Friday, John Coghill, the GOP chairman of the state House Rules Committee, wrote a letter seeking a meeting of Alaska's bipartisan Legislative Council in order to remove the Democratic state senator in charge of the so-called &amp;quot;troopergate&amp;quot; investigation.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://www.newsweek.com/id/157439/output/print"&gt;http://www.newsweek.com/id/157439/output/print&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description></item><item><title>Obama mocks McCain-Palin as 'change'</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/09/06/1358110.aspx#1358240</link><pubDate>Sat, 06 Sep 2008 19:55:55 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1358240</guid><dc:creator>Patrick Era</dc:creator><description>Come to think of it: how can a candidate whose campaign is mainly run by lobbysts promise to go to Washigton and clean it of lobbysts?

She said thanks but no thanks to the bridge to nowhere, and then kept the federal money anyway. The only reform she brings is to disheartened right wingers who really needed an anti abortion shot in the arm to wake them up. &lt;br&gt;I will be interested to hear Palin defend her record to the press, if she ever decides she needs to actually speak to them.

&amp;nbsp;i disagree.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;for 6 years Republicans controlled congress and the white house. &amp;nbsp;their platform was jammmed through, and they almost succeeded with the biggest removal of freedom that the american people have ever suffered. &amp;nbsp;they torture 'enemy combatants' and work to justify their actions through corrupt politics. &amp;nbsp;No bid contracts given to those in power's partners and power players, when these contracts have been proven to be against the best interests of the people.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;and for the past two years GW has used the veto on anything and everything that wasn't one of his party's pet bills, while the whole time railing that the Democratic congress is unable to accomplish anything. &amp;nbsp;John McCain had is hand in this standoff, and wasn't so interested in Bi Partisanship then, so i have no reason to believe that he will be his stolen slogan &amp;quot;the agent of change&amp;quot;. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;This whole campaign by McCain has become a direct rip off of Obama's, and the two Bush campaigns. &amp;nbsp;Swift Boating whenever and where ever possible, playing the playing the racism card, our VP candidtate can't talk to the sexist media when the truth of her character has been brought into question by ethical investigations and first hand accounts from people who didn't vote for her in her hometown elections.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;it is sad how the christian conservatives can give their vote based on the issue of abortion, yet are so eager to send their grown children to war, committing some of the most evil and scarring crimes against humanity ever done and be happy because it is &amp;quot;God's will&amp;quot; being done. &amp;nbsp;i'm fairly certain that Jesus was said to have never fought, and won't until the final battle between Satan for the gates of heaven. &amp;nbsp;His message of love has been ignored because of perversions to the message and dreams of ideological supremacy.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;This type of message from the leader of the US will remove the last vestige of trust that the world has in the US, and we can not be victorious when standing alone against the rest of the world community. &amp;nbsp;Long have the enemies of this nation held her in high esteem because of the balance and good judgment that marked her. &amp;nbsp;this is no longer the case, as her actions have proven to be selfish, petty, and hypocritical while claiming to hold to the platitudes of the past. &amp;nbsp;Continuing on this path will only lead to worse tensions and a decision by the world that america is not to be trusted because her leaders don't keep their word, and their actions are unjust.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;This is the situation, and a POW who likes to shoot from the hip, and is easily prone to snap decisions without thinking the situation through will not improve this situation, but they will instead intensify the dislike for american goals in the world.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://www.horneddevil.proboards98.com/"&gt;http://www.horneddevil.proboards98.com/&lt;/a&gt;</description></item><item><title>Obama mocks McCain-Palin as 'change'</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/09/06/1358110.aspx#1358361</link><pubDate>Sat, 06 Sep 2008 20:26:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1358361</guid><dc:creator>marybeth, freeport maine</dc:creator><description>Please understand that the republican party has nominated a spokesmodel for the religions right, the most breathtakingly unquailfied person ever nominated for national office. &amp;nbsp;No person of either sex with her qualifications should be considered for v.p. &amp;nbsp;As a woman I am embarrassed that she does not understand this &amp;nbsp;herself and feel humiliated &amp;nbsp;as they parade her with scripted one liners, and keep her from any opportunity to be evaluated by the american people.

I don't think so. &amp;nbsp;It's election first, then let the country deal with the disaster that might occur &amp;nbsp;should Sarah Palin ever be asked to take the oval office. </description></item><item><title>Obama mocks McCain-Palin as 'change'</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/09/06/1358110.aspx#1358363</link><pubDate>Sat, 06 Sep 2008 20:27:15 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1358363</guid><dc:creator>John</dc:creator><description>He is absolutely right. &amp;nbsp;These bums have been in power for 8 years and have screwed so much of it up. &amp;nbsp;Now they want more power? &amp;nbsp;McCain is change? &amp;nbsp;hah lol funniest lie I've ever heard.</description></item><item><title>Obama mocks McCain-Palin as 'change'</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/09/06/1358110.aspx#1358366</link><pubDate>Sat, 06 Sep 2008 20:27:30 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1358366</guid><dc:creator>Dante Myers, Philadephia</dc:creator><description>Only willful blindness would cause one to accept McSame as a change agent. &amp;nbsp;Keep exposing the hypocricy of the Repugs.</description></item><item><title>Obama mocks McCain-Palin as 'change'</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/09/06/1358110.aspx#1358369</link><pubDate>Sat, 06 Sep 2008 20:28:35 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1358369</guid><dc:creator>Eraticus</dc:creator><description>Crash McSame is a reckless oportunist.

Public outcry and further legislative action restored most of these projects -- which had been vetoed simply because she was not aware of their importance -- but with the unobservant she had gained a reputation as “anti-pork”.&lt;br&gt;She also was for the bridge to no where, and only changed recently. She has accpeted earmarks and lobbied for them as mayor and as governor. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;But she stays to the Republican narrative: say things often enough and people will accept it as true. Let's change the narrative to research for the facts and act on those. </description></item><item><title>Obama mocks McCain-Palin as 'change'</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/09/06/1358110.aspx#1358412</link><pubDate>Sat, 06 Sep 2008 20:41:39 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1358412</guid><dc:creator>A Spectator</dc:creator><description>I recall McCain insisting that he will conduct a campaign based on issues and refrain from personal attacks. &amp;nbsp;Since, locking the nomination all McCain has done is send his attack dogs after Obama. &amp;nbsp;And now he would like Americans to be believe McCain+Palin=change. &amp;nbsp;Country First is his mantra; how deceptive. McCain will do anything at this point to win this election, this is why he chose Palin (insulting many qualified women in his own party). &amp;nbsp;Obama will continue to focus on issues but he should compare and contrast his record because McCain will continue to tell lies. &amp;nbsp;By the way McCain never open his mouth and denounce LIES that were told about Obama but Obama was the first one to defend Palin's family only to have Palin accuse Obama of spreading lies about her family. &amp;nbsp;What a joke??? &amp;nbsp;Obama=Integrity.
