Is John McCain his own worst enemy? I think he has done more damage to his campaign than all his opponents put together!

looville: could not have said it better.

Wow! I didn't think Captain Flop could listen to scientists. Or as he calls them "wizards". Still it doesn't seem like he knows really what he is talking about and he's just talking crap a lobyist told him to say. Was he on the first nuclear ship? Just wondering.

Would Obama have someone on stage who disagrees with him? He can't even have some women in head wraps. And we have seen how Bush has always loaded the audience with only his loyal supporters. I think McCain is giving us a view of realizing that everyone won't agree. I also chuckle when people say "it won't provide any help for ten or fifteen years" yet there isn't anything that will help us tomorrow besides saying that no one can drive for pleasure.

To Becky:

McCain has people who disagree with him on his panel.

McCain gives the press unprecedented access on his bus and plane and press conferences.

McCain holds press conferences.

McCain holds town hall meetings all the time. McCain allows dissent. Obama doesn't.

Obama gives the press no access.

Obama won't hold town hall meetings with McCain.

Obama is all packaged and has the liberal media let him get away with it and fawn on him with great packages.

This election is a disgrace. Most unfair election coverage in our history.

This is what happens when 85 percent of the media favor one party.

lordy lordy: Obama wants to shut down the Enron loopholes, McCain voted yes for them, now if he can get this done it is said by the experts that we will save 30% to 50% OVERNIGHT in our cost in gas.

Now why is this not top priority?

The wackos were saying the same things 20 years ago. If we drilled back then we would have the oil flowing. and it doesn't take that long.

John McCain is a good man but clearly in big trouble. He should never have put himself in a situation where a person he invited disagreed with him. Looks like he's letting the party call all of the shots... which helps explain why Obama will win it in a cakewalk.

I love how McCain always says "my friend". It makes him seem even more disingenuous than ever. Who wants someone who sounds like a used car salesman for President? McCain is indeed his own worst enemy. Keep campaigning, "my friend"... keep campaigning hard. You're doing yourself in.

The best and easiest way to drive down oil prices is to quit driving for pleasure and car pool to work. But whats getting me is I don't think its a supply problem. Production hasn't droped off and demand has at least in this country gone down from last year. Then China ends subsadies and our gas drops by $4 a barrel but gas still goes up. I'm confused somebody is screwing alot of people, There is more than market forces at work here. so were I agree yes we need to drill here but no they don't need more land because they don't use the land they got. Why? because it's cheaper to buy the oil from them then gear up to do it ourselves. this open more land dispute was just brought up to give the "news" something to report and give the canidates an issue.

Doug: sorry! I would never vote for McCain, my family is to important to me.

Then why hasn't the Bush administration drilled on the land they already have available during the past 7 years? I'll give you a clue: M-O-N-E-Y. If they've been doing such a fine job, why are we in this mess? They had a full term and a half-term with control of the presidency and the congress.

Becky, Americans aren't the only ones speculating on oil and the producers are going to sell to the highest bidder. The only short term solution is if we don't buy oil and let the speculators take their losses.

Geevil has been afraid of his own shadow for 7 plus years. Now that misery is about to be removed, he's standing on top of his Ford Truck screaming at the top of his lungs,

"I LOVE MISERY"!!!!!!! LEAVE ME ALONE!!!

Geevil, my friend, you should be ashamed of yourself. We know you're miserable and we know that misery loves company, but you might want to go back to your cave.

HOPE IS ON THE WAY.

OBAMA 08

Doug are you nuts? Were have you been getting your "liberal news" from? All I see everyday on this website is ABC digging up crap on Obama. We don't hear about mccains fund raising investigation,we don't hear how him and Huckabee are getting along, We don't here about his shady pastors or shady friends or The KEATING FIVE! There is at least 3 times as much dirt on Mccain than Obama he's been around longer. But you don't hear about it.

McCain thinks he's getting lambasted now, just wait until that first debate between him and future POTUS Obama.

Obama is not only going to lambast and expose him. McCain will also be embarrassed and written off as an out of touch, grumpy old man who needs to shoo the neighborhood kids from walking on his lawn.

McCain will be made quick work of over the coming months.

POTUS OBAMA

mccain why dont you go retire now in a home your an old fool and the more you talk the more you lose do us all a favor go away far away

Funny how we see things from our own perspective. I saw this story and thought: "Uh-oh, he messed up again." McCain backers saw it and thought: "What a man! He invites those who disagree on stage with him!" Hmmm, which of us is correct??

Obama is trying to end the U.S. addiction to oil and so we won't be dependent on the Saudis and OPEC members.
If we drill and 20 years from today we have oil. After 40 years the oil runs out... what then?
We go back to the Saudis?
Drilling won't solve the problem.

Dear American Voters, reporters, media. professionals, political parties, and presidential Nominees,


Please plead and request the media, pundits, and politician's to "Compare And Contrast" " Presidential Temperament" of our Presidential presumptive nominees? as we do for the appointments for the Supreme Court Justices of Our Greatgrand Nation.

Yours truly,

COL. [retd] A.M.Khajawall
Disabled American Veteran
Forensic psychiatrist, Las Vegas

PS: Please talk about the " Presidential Temperament, Composer, Consistency And Caliber " is the key for our presumptive presidential Nominees. We do talk about the "Judicial Temperament" of our Supreme Court Justices nominees and so far we have failed to talk about the " Presidential Temperament " of our presumptive presidential nominees. The " Presidential Temperament " is the ultimate and in my opinion only requirement of our president as that effects every living soul here and around the world.

Thanks once again.
