MSierra, SF — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 19:05:14 GMT

Time for Simple Sarah and Cranky John to change the subject....

The Bush/Gramm/McCain economy doesn't LOOK TOO GOOD

How about this story about the true friendship between John McCain and 'radical' David Ifshin ?

But what about McCain's own associations with former 60's radicals. Indeed, until just a few years ago, McCain openly boasted not only about his passing friendship but also his deep collaboration with one of the most prominent of Vietnam-era student radicals, David Ifshin. The same David Ifshin who denounced America on Radio Hanoi as McCain sat locked up as a POW.

Gee !!
Ask Simple Sarah what the difference is between David Ifshin and Bill Ayers ?
Does Simple Sarah know ?
McCain and David Ifshin were assoicates who worked on projects together

John McCain, there's NO FOOL like an OLD FOOL

Thanks John McCain - I'm supposed to retire in a few years but thanks to you and Phil Gramm, my 401(k) is down almost 25% and dropping. Gee, maybe John can lend me one of his 9 or 10 houses.

Where is McCain's plan to try and trun around this country! I have one end the war in Iraq and invest some of that money in the USA. Your out of touch, out of ideas and running out of time.

voter — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 19:08:38 GMT

this is enough. when the economy is suffering and the markets went down over 760 points McCain is discussing guilt by association. Please, how is this putting money in my pocket to pay my bills or create jobs? This is riduclous considering that the media debunked the story. Ayers and Obama have no relationship. They sat in a charity board for education. That is it. As Obama said today, McCain aid indicated that talking about the economy means McCain loses. Obama said people are losing their jobs and retirement funds. McCain is not putting country first, he is putting himself first.

Stock analysts all over the place seem to be changing their message from "hold" to "every man for himself."

Even the relatively bullish Jim Kramer this morning was saying if you think you might need the money in the next five years, you'd better pull it out of the market now.

More and more, I hear 8400 being thrown around as a new target floor for the Dow, but admittedly I have no idea how people have come up with that figure.

Maybe you need to retire John; a well deserved rest of a POW. I for one won't blame ya!

When McCain says anything about Ayers Barack should simply reply,

I'm just so tired of the Obama fanatics tell us what we can, and what we can't talk about. Listen Obamanuts, the press did absolutely nothing to vet out Obama and his shady past. That leaves it to the candidates to take it upon themselves to do the job. Obama is a product from the Chicago Machine, the most corrupt bunch of pols this country has ever seen. There is a lot of dirt on this Obama character that the press refuses to talk about because they're too busy trying to (unsuccessfully) find stuff on Palin. So quit your whining and for once listen, you might learn something.

Thanks for actually reporting the real news. This crisis is what will be on people's minds when they go into the voting booth. What EXACTLY do John and Sarah plan to do to help the American people, whose futures are looking a bit shaky at the moment?

If anyone has an answer, please feel free to provide it. All I'm hearing from McCain-Palin is "blah-blah-blah-Ayers". That, my friends, has ZERO bearing on these troubling times.

The saddest part is, it's all McCain-Palin have. Pathetic.

Do we want to elect a president that left the poor first wife who weathers the, worries, hardships, and uncertainty of his survival ??
Do we want to elect a president that applied for marriage license with his second wife but was still married to his first wife? What type of person do that?? A Cheater

Do we want to elect a president that he's wife is a drug addict ? What type of association is that ? What example can provide tom our kids….

Do we want to elect a president that left he's FIRST wife because of her health condition? What type of person would do that ?

Do we want to elect a Vice-president that her husband belong to a group advocating Alaska secession from the United State ?

Can we really afford to elect a president with a "psychiatric condition" such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder?

Do we want to elect a president that take antidepressant medications? .......

Remember Charles Keating? Didn't Keating go to jail for fraud? Were you not in favor of deregulating Keating Savings and Loan? How much credit do you and Phil Gramm accept as contributing to this financial disaster?
