The point is that they never indicated where the cause of our current problems fall in --- is it in 90% that McCain voted with or the 10% that McCain disagreed upon? Most likely it is in the 10% that led to the economic woes, job loss, taxes, etc. we face now (and in the years to come). &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Obama definitely is immune to this kind of attack because of his short experience as a senator as well as his 'present' voting record.</description></item><item><title>McCain as Butch Cassidy? </title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/10/24/1590340.aspx#1590607</link><pubDate>Fri, 24 Oct 2008 18:16:24 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1590607</guid><dc:creator>A New America</dc:creator><description>Of course Gov Palin is for the oil companies ... her husband works for an oil company.

If everyone just listens a little to Mccain, you can hear him repeat the old republican party rhetoric before he changes course. He now talks about Obama's tax policy &amp;quot;will take from the rich and give to the poor&amp;quot; as some entitlement program. Haven't we heard this quote before from &amp;quot;Robin Hood&amp;quot;, who was seen as the hero and not the villian? Wake up we already have entitlement programs such as: social security, medicare, disability, etc... from taxes we pay &amp;nbsp;If this is so bad, then why is everyone,who is eligible trying to receive these entitlements? The hypocracy must stop. Obama has real plan, Mccain does not. simply put.--Obama the real canidate for change</description></item><item><title>McCain as Butch Cassidy? </title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/10/24/1590340.aspx#1590675</link><pubDate>Fri, 24 Oct 2008 18:24:22 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1590675</guid><dc:creator>Cindy H.</dc:creator><description>If there is such a thing...
