| McCain makes attempt to coopt Obama's mantle of change |
| 2008-09-07 |
 Arizona Senator John McCain vowed to fight for America as long as he draws breath, in a patriotic pledge to bring political change as he accepted the Republican presidential nomination. The 72-year-old war veteran offered himself as a warrior to fight one final battle for his country, arguing a character forged in war gave him the judgment and vision to lead from the White House. |

| #6 Me neither. But what worries me is voter fraud and lawfare (to include Tasergate). |

| #5 Sarah Palin was disgusted with Randy Reidrich, State Republican party chairman. So she went around him and the G.O.B. network while they were feeding from the trough. She earned her credentials. She and her family have the strength of character to weather the sh*tstorm of smear that is going on now. I would not wish it on anybody. |

| #4 "the MSM uncritically suck it up, and then go after her repeatedly looking stupid, and burning their credibility" The MSM has any credibility left, OS? Who knew? |

| #3 Mike N., that's exactly what's happened to Gov Palin. The crooked R's are feeding all their old innuendo and attacks to the left, who then carry them to the MSM. And the MSM uncritically suck it up, and then go after her repeatedly looking stupid, and burning their credibility. |

| #2 Mantle? Far more like good'o Chicago veneer. O'Man talks the talk about change. Palin walks the walk. Americans know a cheap street hawked knock off when they see it. Some will settle for it, because they really don't care. They only want to project the image and are not concerned about the functionality. It's a pop fashion statement not a practical choice. Palin has had no problem pissing off the corrupt of her party [unlike the Donk who's a product of the same in his own]. Looks like she's going to deliver far more votes come November than those party hacks. |

| #1 Hope he doesn't piss off too many crooked Republicans. The last thing he needs right now is to be undermined by some of his own. |
