Guess you didn't hear, bhrandon. McCain went in there and grabbed the bad guys by the collar and they let the hostages go. Or at least that will be the way they report it on Fox. So it must be true.

JC in Iraq - Wow - but somehow I am not surprised. In America Obama is the media darling. Sorry - I guess that tells you a lot abot our democratic s-election process.

You people are a sad bunch!! You think McCain/ McBush/McSame or whaever you name you use makes McCain less than what he is. What do you know about Obama that makes you think he is able to better lead this country than McCain? Maybe you like marxism, maybe you agree with rev Wrigt, maybe you like Obama's friends who all hate America; maybe you fell under the 'change' speeches spell. Maybe you like empty rhetoric speeces that convinced you Obama is man of God and a patriot and no he is not a racists either. Common people tell me someting about Obama that would show me he would be able to lead this contry out of the position we are now in..

Geevil -- have you ever HEARD the Black National Anthem? It's a gorgeous piece of lyrics and music, and very patriotic. My guess is that the claim that the soprano substituted it for the national anthem is just one more piece of trash from the Swiftboat crowd.

Get with the program, Geevil. People are onto that nonsense this time.

What's wrong with the McCain campaign? Why can't McCain keep his staff together? Why so disorganized and lack of focus? Is this how McCain would run the WH. No thanks!

Yet another McCain anger management story surfaces:

One of John McCain's Republican colleagues, Mississippi Republican Senator Thad Cochran, says he saw the presumed GOP presidential nominee roughly grab an associate of Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega and lift him out of his chair during a diplomatic mission to the Central American nation in 1987. Cochran said he saw McCain, who has a reputation for being hot tempered, rough up an Ortega associate during a trip to Nicaragua led by former Sen. Bob Dole, R-Kan. "McCain was down at the end of the table and we were talking to the head of the guerrilla group here at this end of the table and I don't know what attracted my attention," Cochran said in an interview with the Sun Herald in Biloxi, Miss. "But I saw some kind of quick movement at the bottom of the table and I looked down there and John had reached over and grabbed this guy by the shirt collar and had snatched him up like he was throwing him up out of the chair to tell him what he thought about him or whatever ... I don't know what he was telling him but I thought, 'Good grief, everybody around here has got guns and we were there on a diplomatic mission.' I don't know what had happened to provoke John, but he obviously got mad at the guy ... and he just reached over there and snatched ... him.'

Very bizarre incident and speaks to the instability of John McCain. The man is unfit to be POTUS.

JC - re military vote in Iraq. Do you really believe posts like this? It came through my mail box weeks ago. The media didn't ignore 54 solders lined up to support McCain - they ignored 540 pro-McCain solders. Get it right.

Maybe the guy deserved to be ruffed up or McCain and the guy were horseplaying. Can't you come up something more revelent and with more details instead of I don't know happened but I say McCain grab another guy's shirt?

Welcome Mr. Smith ! You give us George W. Bush for EIGHT YEARS ! How many years are you promising McSame? Or is this George W's. contribution to McCain for another EIGHT YEARS of the same- $10.00 oil, $4.00 bread ++++? Sincerely, Lake Hart, a Native American Writer.

Ok Walter

Time to put your straight jacket back on.

Impressive.

Although you have the IQ of a brick you have excellent computing skills.

Cutting and pasting from the right wing nutjob talking points.

kudos to you

Polls are often skewd with the poll takers own bias and ineptness. Just how many polls were wrong last time? Most if not all?

It is not the numbers in the polls that are important - it is the trends they reflect.

What would he stand to gain?

By the time election time rolls around, McCain will have morphed another 50 times, and be a war hating leftist looking like a beatnik from the 60s and 70s wearing a T-shirt with the peace sign and claim he was raised poor and on food stamps. Yeah, he'll fire this other bozo and hire another bozo.

I am a life long Democrat who wasn;t sure what to do when Obama got the nomination. I was hoping against hope that Hillary would run as an Independent and can't believe she has thrown her support to Obama simply because of her campaign debt. I'm sorry but that action is a little too much like prostitution for my liking. While I have not found a new party, I feel I have found a new candidate in McCain. More and more I am starting to see that he is really the only choice for those of us who feel that Obama, his friends, family and church are too radical for us. I suppose I would have to really consider any future support for the Clintons.

only Senator Clinton is capable of being the best President that our children, our troops and our country desperately needs right now.....its on your conscience if you support lesser candidates (mccain/obama)....

if you love your children, truly want to support our troops and want America to be the great nation it once was, then you already know that Senator Clinton is your best hope for a greater future

chris - maybe so, but she's not in the running anymore. i supported Clinton, too and now I support Obama, since he at least shares her ideals and policies. i don't love it, but that's the way the ball bounces... would you rather give the GOP four more years to enact their horrible, failed policies?
