[quote who="Zubaz"] Giving your money (which I support and do) is differnet from having it stolen from you and given to another who didn't work for it. [/quote] Have you ever heard of an INCOME TAX? America has spoken in a landslide victory, give us change (btw- America didn't want the bailout (heavy socialism) but both republicans and democrats voted for it, theres more than one person to blame)

Sounds like this site where only right-wing articles hit the front page
LOL for real, she doesn't even comprehend the first amendment. Notice how you'll never see a article like this hitting the front page, only right-wing bia
I love how dead these message boards have become ever since Obama took a huge lead in electoral votes
http://hotair.com/archives/2008/10/10/mccain-booed-after-telling-crowd-to-be-respectful-to-obama/ Well, I gained some respect for McCain after watching this but I feel so bad for him, these people are so confused/afraid, I feel scared for the United States right now

Yeah I wasn't crediting Indiana to the Palin effect, I was just saying that's interesting. Latest polls show Virginia pretty solid blue, which is also interesting... my current home state of Utah will likely never go blue again, they'd vote for a turd over a democrat
[quote who="Dr Guy"] 1 has some to do with it, 2 has very little, 3 is closest to the truth, and 4 is just flat out wrong. And unless there is a significant change between now and the election, I think your electoral count is optimistic - for McCain [/quote] 2 does actually have "very little" now because the economy issue is so big now, but as for 4, I think this has something to do with it, look at polls before the conventions and polls now, I bel
11/5/08- Obama easily wins presidential election, 364-174 (http://electoral-vote.com/). Where did the republicans go wrong? 1. George W. Bush- Having the president with jsut about the worst approval rating ever preceding you doesn't help your campaign at all, espiecally when your oppenent can point out you voted with him 90% of the time. Bush approval rating 9/11/01 = 90+% Bush approval rating today= ~28% Source:http://www.hist.umn

"CBS News and Knowledge Networks conducted a nationally representative poll of approximately 500 uncommitted voters reacting to the debate in the minutes after it happened. Thirty-nine percent of uncommitted voters who watched the debate tonight thought Barack Obama was the winner. Twenty-four percent thought John McCain won. Thirty-seven percent saw it as a draw. Forty-six percent of uncommitted voters said their opinion of Obama got better tonight. Thirty-two
[quote who="emximer"] Yes, he put country first in a political stunt that accomplished nothing, if anything hurt the whole process. McCain also put country first when he pissed 64% of votes in the senate, more than any other senator..... [/quote] meant to be missed, not pissed.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/politics/images/26Sep_Friday_WSJ.JPG an excellent ad run by McCain campaign claiming a victory in the debate, hours before the debate even takes place Country First!
[quote who="lulapilgrim"] Emeximer posts #1 I don't know what kind of tactic it is but it sure is bizarre isn't it? Knock, knock, neither Obama nor McCain gave up their senate seat to run for President. That means they are still getting paid to do their job....so, since when is it a tactic or bizarre for a Senator whos' running on "Country first" to mean what he says and say what he means when warned that an economic crisis is at hand to return to Washington to do his job?<b
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26900453/ It's obvious he realized what a stupid move he made, and will go ahead with the debate
[quote who="Anthony R"] Don't be so sure of that. While Obama rehearses his red sea parting voice for 3 days, McCain is rushing to Washington to work on an economic crisis. Is it a gamble? Probably, but if McCain gets positive results its not all that dumb. [/quote] Rushing to Washington or doing an interview with Couric in a studio?

Have you guys ever heard of FALSE DILEMMA? You can do both, taking a couple of hours to have the most important debate in many many years won't hurt anything. Stall tactic
http://elections.foxnews.com/2008/09/24/biden-dropping-out-rumor-thrives-on-internet/ Couldn't find any news of this anywhere else, sounds like a wild rumor to me, I guess we'll see October 3rd though.
One more thing I forgot to add- "Republican presidential candidate Sen. John McCain announced Wednesday that he is suspending his campaign to return to Washington and focus on the "historic" crisis facing the U.S. economy." Just a few days ago the fundamentals of the economy were strong, no?
LOL I'm glad to see you agree! I don't know what kind of tactic it is but it sure is bizarre isn't it? Canceling a presidential debate in such a big year... Let's hope he decides to go through with the debate on Friday.
So I take it the original poster is a Ron Paul supporter?
[quote who="Dr Guy"] Can you legally commit suicide? No. Can you sell your organs? No. Can you put Cocaine, Heroine, LSD, Meth, etc into it legally? No. So what can you do with your body legally? Not a whole hell of a lot. [/quote] You say that you can't legally commit suicide, but what is the punishment for someone who does? Death? So tell me why it's illegal, what is the point of a law making suicide illegal? Let's say abortion
