Obama Hammers McCain Campaign Manager for Saying 'This Election Is Not About Issues'

The only party that have had women issues at heart have been the democrats , from childcare to the freedom of choice for women , president bush not so long ago veto a child healthcare bill ,

they have zero issues in their platform in respects to women , the ones they have is STONAGE ..and the women better watch out in respects to the courts .

Regardless who is the candidate of the Democrat party you go vote and protect yourselfs , that supreme court bench is old ; and WHO will take those vacant spots when the time comes nobody knows but with crazies like Palin be very AFRAID.

What's Obama whining about now?

I was LMAO! Here you have Barack running a revolunary hi tech ground campaign for the ages.. that will be the carbon copy in the future.

Here you have Romney and Rudy Giulani 2 of the BIGGEST LOSERS you ever seen in the primaries now BASHING Barack last NIGHT.

For a GUY who they CLAIM dont know MUCH or have experience. HE SURE THOUGHT THEM A LESSON ON HOW TO RUN A CAMPAIGN THAT BLEW EVERYONE OUT THE WATER.

IF BARACK PLANS TO RUN THE COUNTRY THE WAY HE RAN HIS CAMPAIGN.. AMERICA IS IN VERY GOOD HANDS.

McCain = awesome! Obama = not so awesome.... Palin = amazing and who is the other guy... oh well Palin is still better

HER BELITTLING OF BARACK BEING A COMMUNITIY ORGANIZER WAS DOWN RIGHT DISGRACEFUL AND SHAMEFULL ,

SHE PRETTY MUCH ATTACK EVERYONE WHO IS OR AT ONE POINT DID GET INVOLVE AS A VOLUNTEER AND HELP OUT THEIR FELLOW MAN , BE IT MEALS ON WHEELS FOR SENIORS AND THE DISABLE , AT RISK YOUTHS, THE FOOD BANK , FIGHTING FOR WORKERS RIGHT...ETC

SHAME ON HER , BUT THIS IS TYPICAL OF THIS REPUBLICAN PARTY.

THE REPUBLICANS HAVE NO ISSUES TO RUN ON , OF COURSE YOU ARE LEFT TO ATTACK THE OTHER GUY ,

HOWEVER SHE CONVEINTLY LEFT OUT THE MESS BUSH MADE OF THIS COUNTRY FOR THE PAST 8 YEARS ,YOU WOULD THINK BARACK WAS THE PRESIDENT.

SHE IS JUST ANOTHER MOUTH PIECE FOR THE BUSH CAMPAIGN CLAN AND THEY USE HER SO WELL IN DELIVERING THEIR LIES AND TALKING POINTS.

THE BUSHMOBLE= STOPING TO PICK UP PALIN AND MCCAIN.

ANOTHER 4 YEARS IN THIS FLAT TIRE VEHICLE

NOT ONE TIME did palin mention the issues. I've seen people having to work 2 or 3 jobs just to make it on day to day basis and I AM FURIOUS!!! Gas prices are high, jobs are being shut down, people are losing their home, and etc. NOBODY should have to suffer that much. This is not about obama, it's about us. We are the ones who are suffering and I am tired of going through what we went through the past 8 years. I'm only 21 years old and I can't even afford to go to college. How can people vote for someone who agrees with bush 90% of the time. The only reason McCain chose Palin was because he thought he could use her to win w omen's votes and as a woman I believe the neither McCain nor Palin are ready to lead our country. In my opinion Barack Obama and Joe Biden will run this country the right way. We need excellent leaders for our country and that's why I'm voting for obama and biden.

I wonder how many jobless workers, homeless borrowers and legless veterans were comforted and took solice in the words they heard tonight.

One issue I never hear anyone saying anything about is Science vs. Religion. McCain is with the party who thinks cells in a dish are life so we cant test them even though we can save lives. Palin is with the party who thinks telling kids about condoms is a "sin". This is the same "Mother" your all promoting? Who has a 16 year old daughter that was knocked up by her pedophile boyfriend? Open your eyes! Really, seriously no pun intended!

Of course this election and any other election should be about the issues. McCain is counting on distracting people away from the issues because he doesn't have any realistic answers. He doesn't understand the economy, he wants us to stay in Iraq for at least ten more years, he would like abortion to be illegal, the list goes on.
Just compare the websites of McCain and Obama. McCain's website has small changes to existing Bush plans as the answers needed. Obama's website under 'issues' has specific workable plans for each topic such as Social Security, Defense, Veterans, 24 different topics. They are terrific ideas that will make great change for the good without raising taxes on anyone making under $250,000.
I know I'm not going to convince any of the hard-core Repubs here but if there are any independents out there compare the two websites to make a truly informed decision. Sound-bytes have proven to be a dangerous way to decide on a president.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if people voted for the person most likely to succeed, that smart guy who showed how capable he was by pulling together and directing a campaign so brilliant and to get people on both sides of the political aisle are remarking on how his savvy.

Instead we get a campaign where McCain defines himself in terms of the leader Obama instead of detailing his plans.

McCain talks to us about old movies, pop culture.

McCain seeks out an 'exciting' rifle packing, hunting and moose skinning former beauty queen who's now a slick politician and WOW - she's also buddies with the oil companies. She's for earmarks until she get's caught and now she's against them. She's for TEd STevens but now she's against him.
and her personal life is being visited on us in high drama - I don't wanna know anymore!

Oh boy Peggy Noonan and Mike Murphy were caught on open mikes dissing Palin and calling her a gimmick pick when there were other more qualified candidates.

Funny how he brings up the whining thing again when on his video at the convention he said something like his grandparents worked hard and weren't whiners. I take that to mean others were whiners.
And does he ever get the cities names right?

Oops! We all know Obama is the DNC's Sugar Daddy - I meant he needs to send a list of the beneficiaries to the media.

Then the Obama campaign can easily send the list of PAC benefactors to the media, can't they? I believe they have their contact numbers.

I am so sick of hearing Obama talk about the economy when by the time this election is over, he will have received close to a half a billion dollars in campaign funding from individuals. Somebody is making money somewhere. If anyone has a different set of totals for his campaign contributions from individuals, I would love to see them.

The McCain campaign called it like it is. BsO was selected and pushed on IMAGE, not issues.

"At another point in his remarks, Obama, as has become a campaign tradition, misstated the name of the town he was visiting, calling New Philadelphia 'New Pennsylvania'."

When the "post-partisan" hype-monger starts saying "folks", it's a good bet that whatever ELSE he says will be patronizing and looong, but not memorable.

LOL.

Calling media attacks unfair then mentioning Rush Limbaugh as a victim?

LOL.

One more sign that Obama has left reality. The attacks of the past few days have made it impossible to find coverage of the issues. The issues are national the economy, national security, foreign policy, the deficit, job creation, abortion, domestic oil production, and many more wide ranging plans that address Americas needs.

A sick child is not an issue, a 22 year old arrest is not an issue, and educated move to drop support of bad legislation and oppose it once more facts are known, is a good thing not a bad thing.

The media has unfairly attacked an All American Mom. They have torn through her family and friends with no regard to limits, and have lowered themselves to tabloid media instead with the printing of pure lies and trash talk.

Isn't this the same media that calls Rush Limbaugh sexist? You boys are far worse when given a serious threat by a Proud American Woman. Get a life and find a new job as reporters report news not trash.

len,

I hardly expect commentators on a blog to discuss issues. But I do expect it from the candidates.

John McCain's campaign is the one who called this an image election where issues do not matter.
