I agree with him 100%. Just a shame he isnt the one to lead.

He also said today:

"I have never been an astronaut, but I think I know the challenges of space." --John McCain to the Des Moines Register editorial board when asked if he has ever been without taxpayer-financed health care.

So now he says we can do without taxes of the painful kind. The painless ones are OK? I'm confused. Which man's plan is less painful? Let me guess. I might check with factcheck or the Tax Center.

I believe the winner is.................BHO

Is it just me, or is the guy who thought Britney Spears and Paris Hilton was good campaigning is trying to copy Obama's 2-minute serious ads? Unfortunately, he always do a terrible job trying to impersonate Obama.

McCain's commercial would have more credibility if McCain hadn't attempted to score political points last week, and if he hadn't taken credit Monday for the bills passage within an hour of its failure. McCain's a tool, and despite the courage he displayed as a POW, more and more Americans are starting to see him in a negative light.

This message would be more effective if Sen. McCain hadn't immediately blasted Sen. Obama for the bill's failure to pass the House.

And this is a good ad why? What leadership did McCain show recently in his attempt to ride to Washington to save the day?

What good leadership skills has he shown by selecting an unqualified running mate?

What good leadership skills has he shown by blaming Obama for the financial crisis?

What good leader would suspend a campaign because he cannot multitask?

Give me a break!

Intelligent Voter, St. Louis, MO — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 20:07:02 GMT

HAHAHAHAHAHA that's all I'm going to say to this. First of all, does he expect us to forget that he's been blaming Obama and the Democrats all week? Second of all, McCain and Palin are banking on the stupidity of the American people to win this election and that bet is NOT going to pay off for them.

Reno Will — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 20:09:23 GMT

Sounded like he was talking about Sen. Obama, didn't it? When McBush mentions crisis it's usually from looking in the mirror. The man is a crisis. Self-admitted not very interested in or up on the economy and for me....his close involvement with Charles Keating and ruining the lives of many Lincoln investors did it for forever with this guy. He can't be trusted.

Can't wait until Obama uses this ad against him when he piggybacks it with McCains ad a couple days ago blaming him and the Democrats for politicizing the bailout.

What a joke this guy turned out to be.

Let's move forward, not backward -

Obama / Biden 2008

This is the kind of ad that McCain needs to release.

No more 'Celebrity' or 'the One'.

Be sincere. Tell us what you'll do if elected. Stay away from petty attacks.

Paul Miller, Woodbridge, VA — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 20:12:30 GMT

McCain's leadership?

First he suspended his campaign to fix the economy.

Then he suspended his suspension to attend the debate he said he wouldn't.

Then he suspended his suspension of the suspension to go back to Washington to ensure the economic bailout passed.

After the economic bailout didn't pass - rejected by McCain's own party in the House - he suspended the suspension of the suspension of his suspension, and started campaigning again.

And the only saving grace to all this suspended animation is it kept Palin out of the news, and thus from not further appearing as an inanimate object.

If these words had been spoken by anyone else we'd assume it was an Obama spot.

Sorry, Johnny, you're too far down the slime road to turn back now. You picked your tactics and your smear merchants, and there's no do-over at this late date.

OMG!
All the media in the tank for Barack, Raines & Johnson at Fannie Mae, & Gwen Ifill as the "moderator" for the OBiden/Palin debate.

Now Barack has to find more money to pay fr all the kiddies' candy.

Where is there ANY objectivity?

I heart the U.S.A. — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 20:15:34 GMT

I have a question to the citizens of Alaska.

Has Sarah been embarrassing you?

Did she have you all completely snowed?

Has her popularity decreased?

I did see the protest against Palin in Alaska. Those people seemed to be reasonable and happy to voice their views. Why are they not being covered by the media.

The more I find out about Sarah, the more I am very afraid of her in the VP position.

And I guess she is likable, if you can get past there shrill voice...

I viewed her debates online and she did well. I am sure she will have the mccain talking points down cold by tomorrow.

BUT THAT DOES NOT make her ready to run the country.

I hear people say she has more experience than Obama. I disagree. Him running his own presidential campaign is comparable to running her state with it's population. PLUS, for almost 2 years he has put himself out there for us to test and evaluate every little detail of his life... even his kindergarten papers!

He's been in his State Senate and a Law professor after EARNING the job as president of the Harvard Law Review.

His BS degree did not take 6 years, like hers (failing out of two of them).
I expect her to read and memorize since she was a news caster before mayor of her small town.

I am a Republican woman over 50 and could not vote for her or Mccain because

I CARE about MY COUNTRY!

DON'T YOU???

say NO to mccain/palin

McCain has a habit of sticking out his tongue after he delivers a verbal jab at his opponent. He managed to avoid doing that in this commercial so that's good.

Cross in margate, FL — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 20:18:53 GMT

Ok. I would like to ask a question to Sen. McCain. Sir, if you love veterans so much and they know it, why are a lot of veterans not happy with votes that you have cast on the floor of the senate that are anti veterans? If you love us so much, why did you not vote for the improved GI bill? A lot of us sacrificed our youths but a lot have sacrificed their lives because "THEY" put country first. Why do you not think is fair for the country to offer more than what we have now, which is very sub-par care, very few health options, and little chances of getting quality education and services? If you can make a case, I am willing to listen. Otherwise, sir, please, dispense with all this whaaaaa whaaaa whaaaa

It is so funny how McCain keeps plagiarizing stuff Obama said first -- this is straight from Obama's 2004 convention speech + what Obama was saying about economic oversight two weeks ago while McCain was still saying we were in great shape!

Hey "Hillary Democrats for McCain":

If you're so gung ho for "small government" then why did you support Hillary who has built her fine career on putting the government to work on behalf of the people? Are you a real person or just Rick Davis posting under a phony name?

John Tucker, New York, NY — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 20:56:05 GMT

When i saw this ad, I just laughed so hard, it still hurts! I mean are you kidding me?? Look how old this guy is, he has no plans for the future, he has a sucky VP that doesnt know ANYTHING and now he is the leader after he didn't get anything done last week and continues to attack Obama and lie out of desperation this week... who are kidding?? Honestly, who is going to vote for this old, out of touch Bush clone??

The man is a clown! He shouldn't even be running for president, he should be retiring and looking after his health. This election maybe so tough on him at the end he might not take it! Sorry McSame, its Obama's time, It's America's time, It's The World's time!.... Not yours!
