Suzi, one of my issues with McCain is the cheating on his wife issue.  I know, I know...it seems endemic and common among political figures...but to me, it says something about the character and integrity of the man, his honor, and his promise to his wife.  Perhaps Obama has cheated too...that will remain to be seen, as these guys aren't terribly bright about covering their tracks.  

Clinton cheated, and I lost a lot of respect for him.  It didn't make a lot of difference to US policies here and abroad, but it surely did disrupt the workings of the government for quite a long time, and a lot of time and money was wasted on the ensuing investigations.  It exposed him to be "just" another man whose lust let him make a stupid and hurtful choice.

I think McCains speech was wonderful, and he encouraged all Americans not to simply accept the outcome of the election, but to embrace it and to work to make the next 4 years beneficial for all.  I have a lot of admiration for that.  McCain himself says there is nothing to be scared about, and that he himself holds Obama in high regards.  

I have real hope for the first time in a long time, that we can work together and put partisan politics on the back burner, and start looking sensibly at what we can do to not only salvage what's happened in the last 8 years, but move forward and build a better future.

(hey--do you think I can get McCain to pick me next year instead of that Palin dimwit?)

This is a man who happened to have a piece published on the same day 9/11 occurred, not something he wrote in RESPONSE to 9/11. Big difference! He did not conspire to bring down the towers, nor did he commend and applaud the actual terrorists who executed the plan that ultimately took down the towers. And he was writing and fighting AGAINST a war we should never have been involved in, much like we are now. He spoke out against a war that killed far more of our citizens than the towers, pentagon, or flight 93 did combined.

Again, you are skewing "facts" and using baseless accusations to try and smear the president elect because your candidate lost. It is more difficult for some folks to accept this than others.

Apparently the majority saw through this propaganda and made the best decision for our country. Hopefully it makes up for the last 8 years.

I love the way when Dems talk about Republicans it is just stating  so-called "facts". but when a Rep says anything about a Dem it is considered mudslinging.....

I am not talking about a man who went to jail because of a moving violation or a DWI...I am talking about A KNOWN TERRORIST!!!  The same man who said on 9-11 that the terrorists didn't do ENOUGH!!!!

Obama didn't just sit on a charitable org. with this man....or chatted with him at a mailbox....he planned his political strategy and candidacy at HIS HOUSE!!!!

If Obama so "loves" the USA, how could he be more than just aquaintances with this man?  

I think it is a dignified question that he never answered.  He said that he denounces what he did, but still never said why his "friendship" was more than just an aquaintance.

As I said....it is my concern....I will give him a chance...I will support his ideas because for some reason America feels he is qualified for the job and I am an American.  But the same way the Dems would be questioning McCain I have that right to question Obama.

My goodness, that IS right. They served on CHARITABLE boards together. The horror!

Are the same person you were 40 years ago? Let's make it a little more realistic, are you the exact same person you were when you were a teenager, maybe even in your early 20's?

If your neighbor, whom you have spoken with at the mailbox, maybe even the neighborhood watch meetings, burned a flag 20 years ago, planted a bomb, had an abortion, whatever else, does that mean you are of the same moral fiber she is because you co-chair the block watch program together?

For the good of our country, I sincerely hope that folks move on from the unfounded mudslinging and work to help fix the current administrations foul ups.

Of course my comments were sarcastic...however, the Bill Ayers relationship is true.  It is not mudslinging...it is a fact.

I AM cynical...I will see how it plays out and I hope that I am proven wrong with all of my fears about Obama.  I want the USA to be as great of a nation as anyone else on this site.  I am just leary about Obama's way of achieving it.

Yes, Suzi, I am certain Ayers will be in there.

*rolls eyes*

Thankfully the majority didn't buy into that garbage.

Looks like the mudslinging hasn't stopped for some people.
