McCain Assertions From His Acceptance Speech It's Tough to Argue With

marylou,

That's because we actually agree with our candidates position on the issues.

(This is the freakin' strangest election I have ever seen..)

Obama has never battled his OWN party - and he never will.

Republican strategy: plug ears and hum as loud as you can.

Two great points. He has a real record of change.

If I have to hear that POW story one more time. THere were a lot of POW's. He survived - many didn't. Let's talk slavery and the benefits McCains and others still receive from it. Let's talk about the issues that Mike Moore continues to point out in his movies (no one has sued him for liable) he speaks truth. McCain changes support and issues daily.
I am not going to waste my vote on a 3rd party, its like helping these idiots. As a Mother I stayed home with my children (republicans were civil then and had Christian principles)now we want to flunt sex, lies and neglect of family in front of our kids. You go Family values - is a thing of the past. There were too many qualified women who have given theri blood, sweat and tears to the Republican party - only to receive this slap in the face. We not only need tosing God Bless America - We need to Pray it. We have went from being disliked around the world to being the joke.

Jennifer,

You go girl..
Sarah will give you everything you
lost with Hillary.

Do you know that JOhn McCain was a POW?

I really dont see what's so attractive about John McCain. He lacked self-control as a Naval Cadet. He was a POW along with thousands of others of that era. When he came home he ran wild until he military psychologists could get his head together. When his first wife had a serious auto accident McCain cheated on her and later dumped her to marry a wealthy beer heiress who set him up to run for Congress. He has never been able to get along with his party - not a team player. He said he wanted to run a clean campaign but he hired the Bush campaign team, and in the gutter he goes. He has a hair trigger temper - and we want to give him the nuclear red button. At age 72 his one criteria for choosing a VP was someone who could be President 'on day one' so he gives us Sarah Palin. What are we thinking?

Jeff,

Republicans think you can repeat the past.
Democrats know this is illusion.

It's an excellent argument - if you are the John McCain who hadn't made a Faustian pact.

The main question is does he see himself as a one-termer.

What ego that seeks the presidency does?

Iraq isn't "winnable" and because of that, we've already lost. And yes McCain, you will lose this election.

geeze even the DNC dead has risen. Dukakis what a loser. Please Larry King bring on people who are not bitter or Vogue cover models like the SF Mayor.

Well, well, well.

Now Obama thinks the surge has been successful, or so he told Bill O'Reilly tonight.

He must have had a sneak peak at McCain's acceptance speech where McCain mentions how he jeopardized his entire candidacy by fighting for the surge.

Anyone who wants to make a journey should have in mind right from the beginning, what he has to do at his last destination.

Barack had in mind "CHANGE"

McCain is trying anything: experience (he dropped it out), the war hero, and now jumping on "CHANGE".

Independents have you realised this as well!!!!!!!!

I am a life long African American democrat who is voting for McCain. I find Obama to be very insincere and the sort of politician that says what he needs to to get into office. I look at Obama's actions as a senator from Illinois and I see nothing. Obama did not go to Washington for Illinois. He went for himself.

Obama will not wear a US flag pin so why would I expect him to stay in a cell and be loyal to his comrades. Obama strikes me as the sort of guy that would sell the US out.

Tonight I saw man that at least told the truth about his past unlike Obama's books which are embellished and filled with mis truths. Why would I respect someone that belongs to a church and then severs ties with them after 20 years of membership?

I am black. Obama is black. that is not a reason for me to vote for him. He did nothing to improve my life as an Illinoisan. or an African american. In fact I find him to be a very divisive person. He will do nothing to improve my life as an American. Obama = the change we need is More garbage This is the same stuff he said during his senate race.

PS... Bush not showing at the convention is a blessing. If Bush had showed up they would have beat it death. Bush hates McCain and I applaud him for staying away. He did McCain a favor. Bush and Cheany are cowards. Hillary while your speech was great. You and Bill cannot stand BO. I would never have endorsed him. I admire your loyalty to the DNC but I saw through the act. I saw Michelle Obama frown during your speech and feign smiles when she knew the cameras were on her. The DNC was not united, it was an act. Michelle and Barry are divisive people. they will be the same in the oval office.

No Odrama.

I have never seen such a display of CODEPENDENCY from the Republican voters. They are slaves to their own voting patterns and they don't even know it. It's as if they are making excuses for the faults of the people they elect. For example, here comes their elected officials apologizing for their behavior and promising to never do it again. "We're going to change, you'll see." Then, BAM, off they go with their addictions to oil, lying, cheating, stealing, and killing for it. The voters then say they just can't leave their party in this time of crisis. They love their party and must help them to get back on their feet. It goes over and over and over again.

Okay, my family is mixed Puerto Rican race, most are black. I just asked about that and they said; "What does that have to do with anything?" John McCain, to them is like a no brainer....I am still going third party, I don't care what my dad says.

Wholly C! They just took count 57 people, there are 59 adults, my husband went ouside and I am working hard at the computer so I am laying low, but they are in unison saying they're voting for McCain. They're Democrats!!!! They always have been.... WEIRD.

McCain tried very hard to appeal to independents and moderates, but Iam sorry he will still lose.

McCain ran fron GWBush to the extent he will not even call his name, but he will still lose.

McCain even bashed the Repugs as corrupt and power drunk (amazing, it has never happened before), BUT HE WILL STILL LOSE.

POTUS OBAMA SALUTES YOU.

"1 of the last four presidents was a "tax and spend liberal” democrat who left office with a budget surplus." Then why didn't you get Hillary Clinton as your nominee??!!!!
