Grant it its not all about a speech but if you are so much of a reformer then state in your own words what you plan to do to actually help the lower 48 states. Not to discredit the good folks in Alaska but do you really want a big time oil woman who represents Alaska, one of the most remote states who insinuate that snowmobiling and moose hunting and being just is a normal way of life that we can all relate to help us get our affairs in order. we need to hear about health care, education, taxes, lowering oil prices and becoming energy independent. we all know the problem wont be solved over night but drilling for more oil is not the answer either. Just a temporary fix and another gimick like the whole gas holiday trick. remeber how Obama helped us understand how it was more of a gimick and not a solution. </description></item><item><title>Biden: McCain-Palin all talk</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/09/09/1367790.aspx#1367920</link><pubDate>Tue, 09 Sep 2008 17:35:05 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1367920</guid><dc:creator>GW, Vancouver, Canada</dc:creator><description>Joe, you are being too kind, they are not about talking, &amp;nbsp;they are all about lying. &amp;nbsp;Thankfully Ed Rendell and a few others are finally saying that.

She basically represents everything negative the Repubs said about Obama, except in her case it is true. I really hope that Missouri learns from its mistakes with BUsh. In 2004 here in the suburbs of STL you would see Bush bumper stickers, now you could not find a bush bumper sticker anywhere if you looked with a microscope. Hopefully we here in Missouri with STL and KC leading the way will fially be on the side right. &lt;br&gt;NO way No How No McPalin!!!&lt;br&gt;Yes we can Obiden 08!!</description></item><item><title>Biden: McCain-Palin all talk</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/09/09/1367790.aspx#1368015</link><pubDate>Tue, 09 Sep 2008 17:46:14 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1368015</guid><dc:creator>LJ</dc:creator><description>Say what you will about Biden, but he's a true work horse for the American people unlike McCain who's riding hard on the tail of a woman to get to the White House like the wuss he is. &amp;nbsp;The Obama campaign doesn't really have to do much to combat Palin's popularity, the MSM is doing a good job of that these days. &amp;nbsp;If McCain won't properly vett Palin, the American public will certainly demand to hear about this unknown woman and get results from the people who are on TV every single day who will report the news whether they like it or not.</description></item><item><title>Biden: McCain-Palin all talk</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/09/09/1367790.aspx#1368018</link><pubDate>Tue, 09 Sep 2008 17:46:33 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1368018</guid><dc:creator>subgruvet, ok</dc:creator><description>Go after em' Joe. &amp;nbsp;Their lies mustn't stand. &amp;nbsp;The RNC is selling an empty package wrapped in a lie and our children will suffer if it's sold. &amp;nbsp;Bring on the debates and let's hear some substance. &amp;nbsp;Also, I'd like to hear more about the report of Palin's son being arrested and given a choice between the military and jail.</description></item><item><title>Biden: McCain-Palin all talk</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/09/09/1367790.aspx#1368021</link><pubDate>Tue, 09 Sep 2008 17:46:43 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1368021</guid><dc:creator>Bud Ferrell, Waynesboro, Va.</dc:creator><description>From what I read, stem cell research is rapidly being replaced by newer techniques affording the same results.

There will be something that either John McCain or Gov. Palin says that will smack the poor people and&lt;br&gt;real working class people right in the face. They have&lt;br&gt;no plans except what the GOP already has working now.&lt;br&gt;Of course thats a lot , after another 4 years of GOP&lt;br&gt;they should be able to fit us all with our yokes and &lt;br&gt;we will truley be thier slaves. I know that Obama is just a politician, but at least hes smart and will &lt;br&gt;surround himself with other smart people with good ideas. Hopefully some of those ideas will take root and some things could turn out better than they are right now. Maybe health care, maybe jobs in green industries, maybe we could bring some of our troops home and then have enough sense not to send them on a &lt;br&gt;stupid mission that only helps the no bid contractors.&lt;br&gt;Maybe we could use diploymacy. &amp;nbsp;Oh Well, just thinking out loud.&lt;br&gt;No way&lt;br&gt;No how &lt;br&gt;No McCain&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;marty</description></item><item><title>Biden: McCain-Palin all talk</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/09/09/1367790.aspx#1368064</link><pubDate>Tue, 09 Sep 2008 17:52:12 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1368064</guid><dc:creator>Teresa, WA state</dc:creator><description>Attacking a pitbull&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Who is &amp;quot;attacking&amp;quot; mooseburger Palin?

Because they have no new solutions for these problems. &amp;nbsp;But the subtle message is as follows: &amp;nbsp;We are familiar, comfortable - like that favorite pair of loafers or comfortable old recliner. Change can be wrong for America, especially if it comes from someone who is different. &amp;nbsp;Can you really trust that he (Obama) has your interests at heart - if he isn't really like you? &amp;nbsp;ITS THE SAME OLD DEVISIVE POLITICS - PIT MEN AGAINST WOMEN, BLACK AGAINST WHITE, YOUNG AGAINST OLD. &amp;nbsp;The only difference this time is the the message is covert. &amp;nbsp;But it is definately still there. &amp;nbsp;The New Republican Party: &amp;nbsp;A Pitbull in Lipstick indeed.</description></item><item><title>Biden: McCain-Palin all talk</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/09/09/1367790.aspx#1368234</link><pubDate>Tue, 09 Sep 2008 18:12:19 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1368234</guid><dc:creator>Steve, Columbus, Ohio</dc:creator><description>Senator Biden on John McCain vs. Barack Obama!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;From ABC’s “This Week”, when Biden was still running for President.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Moderator George Stephanopolous saying to Senator Biden, &amp;quot;You were asked if he (Obama) was ready.

He himself has voted 95% the time with &amp;quot;Bush&amp;quot;, so it goes that he is just like &amp;quot;Bush&amp;quot;. Obama has no experience and he changes his mind frequently to just get your votes!!!!! What a shame? &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;McCain/Palin 08 Rock!!!!!!!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Truly happy to be an American who is also a Military Wife.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Honesty Counts and the Obama/Biden Campaign are truly unhappy with the VP running mate.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description></item><item><title>Biden: McCain-Palin all talk</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/09/09/1367790.aspx#1368720</link><pubDate>Tue, 09 Sep 2008 19:24:36 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1368720</guid><dc:creator>Rodney Hopper, Waxahachie, TX</dc:creator><description>The media is doing America a disservice by focusing so much on Palin and not giving Biden his equal dues. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;This is no pushover.
