Why is the word of a crazy atheist loon being taken as truth? Nancy Reagan endorsed John McCain, she can speak for herself. Ron Jr is an extreme liberal from way back. I don't believe him.

This lady is a separatist. It's treason to put a separatist on your ticket. What was he thinking? Mcsame starts to sound senile.

Ron Reagan Jr. hinted at a little mentioned health risk: McCain's 4 bouts of melanoma were on or above the neck. CANCER SPREADS UPWARDS, not downwards.

A 72 year old man statistically has a 20% chance of dying within the next 4 years. That is WITHOUT calculating in the risks from the melanoma and the cumulative effect of 5 years of imprisonment and untreated injuries.

When it comes to putting the country first, it requires making tough choices that are in the best interest of the country - even if they are not the best gimmick for winning an election.

Respect for our First Lady...and to know she sees something deeper and richer in this journey with Obama...something most deny, and the majority that never lie! We will see what comes of this...For Ms. Nancy and her son are present through all of this...Apachecheynne

Debra: You are so right. Those that make comments against McCain and Palin are showing their fear because they know now that she is feisty and will not take anything from Bidern or Obama. The news media at the convention said it was a historic speech, not a JFK copied speech that Obama used as usual. Yes, he can run this country and run it to the ground. He took that world tour because he wanted the Americans to believe he knows foreign policy. Like the former Mayor of NY said, Obama never ran a state or a business and cannot run the country. What he did have at age 17 was an excessive drug and booze habit and it wasn't for a short term. He was a street organizer in Chicago on the southside but I bet it wasn't in Englewood. And how long did he do that? Anyone can give good advice to young people. That's not a job. That's just talk. I can't wait to hear a debate between Biden and Palin.

Debra: I don't believe a word that comes out of Ron Regan's mouth. Mrs. Regan is a staunch republican and would never back up a democrat. Its Ron himself that likes Obama but is putting it on his mom. Let's face it Ron is a democrat not a republican. Ron and his father were not on speaking terms for years and his sister that passed was not on speaking terms with her father either. The fact is President Reagan would not allow his children to run him and they made comments about their father. Don't believe anything that comes out of his mouth. There is a lot of jealousy from democrats towards Palin and I think they fear she can make McCain win the election and also because she is the VP on his ticket that Hillary not got. Obama's supporters should think about that and wake up to the fact that there will be thousand's of women voting for McCain that voted for Hillary no matter what the media says. And don't believe the polls. The media wants people to believe that Obama is winning McCain when McCain is winning Obama.

I'm curious...what exactly did "they" do to Hillary? She lost the nomination fairly...noone did anything to her. She simply lost. I know some people can't accept defeat, and would rather believe something evil happened here...but she simply lost. Get over it. And if you supported Hillary but now support McCain then you were not a real supporter of Hillary, you couldn't possibly be a supporter of Hillary if you support McCain now. Its just impossibe. So stop pretending you were.

Titus: Don't be angry because McCain picked a women for VP that has more experience and knowledge that Obama ever will have and what is he doing running for president at age 47? We all know he is a know nothing, do nothing and says nohing. He picked Biden to do the talking for him because he lacks the know how. Do you know what college did for him? He learned how to be a drugger, boozer for a long time. That's the highly educated Obama.

Paul: You certainly don't understand politics and you don't know the whole story of why she lost either. You should be aware of the fact that Pelosi didn't want Hillary to have a roll call or have her delegates in all 50 states because she was afraid some of the superdelegates would switch so she told her to only count 32 states and cancel her roll call. I can guarantee that Palin would tell Pelosi to take a swift jump. Hillary let Pelosi and Obama get away with that. I am a Hillary supporter but no an Obama supporter. I wouldn't vote for Obama even if Hillary was on the ticket because every vote counts.

con me not: Obama is a real leader alright. No doubt he was a leader of all the drug and boozers in college for a long time. And I also think that some of the people making comments about McCain and Palin are also take drugs to keep them alert as stated on the internet. I am willing to bet that many of the young women today will never accomplish what Palin did in her young life and the young men of today will probably not accomplish what McCain did in his young day. You have to work to make your goals in life and that's what they did.

Mariann -

Please take your Prozac and go to bed...

I'm sorry, taking drugs is obviously not a great thing to do. Leaving your disabled wife after she is disfigured in an accident for a younger, prettier model is disgusting. But, you will still vote for him?

All of the Hillary supporters who say they are voting for McCain are ridiculous. You will honestly vote for a man that offered his wife up for a topless contest? You were never true Democratic Party Members if that were the case. This entire election (Hillary's defeat) is apparently personal to you. Please just stay home on election day. I am sick to death of the bitter people who whine constantly about her having the election stolen from her. SHE LOST. I definitely would recommend some therapy for you.

I have always respected Nancy Reagan! Wow! What a de facto endorsement! She, like anyone in America who truly loves this country, is scared to death of what Karl Rove and George Bush have created, and she knows that John McCain will do the same.

John is a decorated war hero who did not cave into his captors; but, he is now a coward who caved in because of pressure from the religious right!

Nice try junior.

Nancy already endorsed McCain.

Get real.

I have a strong feeling that the people complaining on this board about how 'Hillary was mistreated' by Obama are paid republican political operatives trying their standard swift-boat tactics spreading lies to divide the opposition and generate momentum for their pathetic ticket. McCain didn't even have the courage to stand up to the religious right in his own party, and this preposterous fake 'hockey mom' who believes her daughter's pregnancy is a private family matter (except for campaign photo ops) but that everyone else's pregnancies should be a matter for government legislation. Totally disgusting GOP behavior - they richly deserve the butt kicking that's coming their way.

GoUSA427 is a paid republican political operative. Please disregard this poster's comments - they're obviously GOP talking points. Thank you.

I think the only people not impressed with Obama are the ones that can't get those republican talking points out of their heads.

I'm having trouble keeping up with the talking points. I see people using stats that are not true. Palin has a 65% approval rating and dropping. She left her HUGE small town in debt. She raised taxes. She did accept earmarks. She has a history of using her position to wrongfully terminate people. Everything that she is claiming is a lie. She may not even get to November since she is under investigation for abuse of power.

Sorry ABC. Your Obama endorsement gambit -- with the ne'er-do-well Reagan son Ron putting words in the former First Lady's mouth -- is not very convincing.

Of course, I'm not surprised that the would-be dancer, who has never hidden his liberal bias, and the ABC TV network have been taken in by all the hype surrounding the Illinois Senator. Indeed, even a casual look into the Obama "story" reminds one of the lack of substance regarding the candidate, which is not unlike the superficiality and lack of substance associated with so many Hollywood movies and television programs.

obama's pick of biden was doing the right thing of country first.not the easy homerun hillary would have offerd.this guy has more judgement than 4 mccains put together.he did not even consideer his health just because he wants to win an election.dnt be fooled these people have notting to offer

Ron Reagan is an Idiot his father would of had alot to say about Obama and it would not have I also dont believe Mrs Reagan said thats she is impressed with the great one untill it comes out of her own mouth.

I know now Mrs Reagan thinks Obama the great is a wonderful Man. My Foot untill I hear it from Her own mouth I dont believe. I think Ron should have went to the Obama convention and stayed the hell away from the Republican one.President Reagan would of had alot to say about Obama and it would of not been good.I would also remind Ron he has a wife so he is out of luck.

I've always been a closet Nancy fan. Kudos and Kisses! Thanks Ron!

Nancy Reagan was one of the coldest first Ladies ever. She did not relate well to middle America so we really do not care what she thinks. She did very little for America and she did nothing overseas- unlike Cindy McCain who travels the world, helps children get medical care, adoptions and donates heavily to charity. Nancy Reagan cannot even come close to Cindy McCain or Sarah Palin either. As for the Obamas -yeah the speeches are mesmerizing but after the koolaid wears off you start to wonder why Obama is so VAGUE and why he tap dances around every question. When does life begin ?? Obamas half-#$@# answer "thats above my pay grade !!!!! " What a fake he is ....NO Bama !!! As for Ronnie jr he should go back to being a ballet dancer - he is no journalist !!!

I bet Republicans weren't expecting that one...I totally agree with Ron, Jr., Gov Palin is not ready for the VP position. Her selection shows a serious lack of judgement on the part of Sen McCain. Between now and election day the media will have the opportunity to closely scrutnize Gov Palin and I'm willing to bet its not going to be pretty.
