I think he thinks we're stupid
Indiana is in play. I hear McCain is spending some of his own money (not the RNC or various nefarious 527's money) on ads here in the Hoosier State. Then today I received in the mail a flier with a picture of Obama on it and at the bottom of one side it said "Not who you think he is." (I immediately tore it up, disgusted.) What do you guys know that the rest of us don't? Does Homeland Security know? If you've known all this time something viable, shouldn't you have come forward a little sooner that two weeks before the election? If I am a person of reasonable intelligence and reasonable stability, am I going to look at this as well as all the things that are being said regarding Muslim and Socialist/Marxist and say, "Well, gee! I guess that super fat tax break I will be getting as a regular Joe doesn't matter. Or the erraticness and lack of discipline and planning on McCain's part. Whew! I was almost fooled for a minute with newspapers (liberal elitists!) and Republican former Cabinet members endorsing Mr. Obama. Wow. Good thing Mr. McCain is here to look out for me. Maybe he will make his dear friend G. Gordon Liddy in charge of Homeland Security with his tips for shooting ATF in the head since they usually wear body armor. Or maybe Mr. Davis can head up the whole financial "rescue" since he has a) a lot of money and b) a lot of experience taking money from people like Freddie and Fannie. Or maybe his lovely friend Phil Gramm can be the new Treasury Secretary and convince the whole world that the recession isn't real, it's just mental." I have heard plans from Mr. McCains camp, but one I'd like details on is how he's going to sweep the lobbyists out of D.C. when the majority of his lead campaign directors will be going back to lobbying as their day job (maybe they figure it's okay, he'll give them a gov't job. I just hope they can make under 250k working for the gov't, or else the whole tax argument will be shot!) I was driving down the street today and saw a bunch of modest ranch houses. About 1200-1500 square feet, in reasonable condition, with McCain/Palin signs out front. I wondered why. I feel bad for some of these people- the ones saying Obama is a Muslim, the ones saying his tax policies (that McCain at one point agreed with) are socialist, that we have to stay in Iraq and win no matter what the cost- I felt bad that they are so filled with anger that they cannot see the truth. I just hope they get a big fat helping of the truth come November 4, because it will set them free.

you need to print this and mail it to your town's paper to the editorial department. no joke. this is spot on! i love how the past two days i've turned on XM Radio to POTUS 08 and Obama has had a business forum (yesterday) and a foreign policy forum (today)...he's working before he's even hired! he's fixing and bringing people and ideas and dreams together before he even gets to dance at the ball. that isn't measuring the drapes, Sen McCain. that's the measure of a president. that's the measure of an AMERICAN president - putting people and ideas together to bring our tattered ship around instead of name calling and hate-baiting. Sen. McCain, you could learn a thing or two about putting country first from this junior senator.
