Think about it... when your campaign is based on millions of Americans who are willing to embrace change and work for it, then when a disaster hits and President Obama sends out a call to action. It will be far more effective then the candidate who's campaign is funded by a bunch of "fat cat" rich folks.
Even before the election, Obama is showing that he is by far the most "Presidential" candidate. As McCain goes for the photo op in Mississippi, Obama is readying an army of volunteers to actually do something once the storm has passed.
That is Change We CAN Believe In!

"Expert" Status?
It appears the Republicans are "dumbing" down, once again, what it means to be an expert.
Apparently, if you are a former sports news caster what-a-be, Miss Alaska runner-up, with only a Bachelor of Science degree in communications-journalism, and you helped your husband fish a bit; you are suddenly an "energy" expert because you live in Alaska. It is like saying I am a "Wheat" expert because I am living in Kansas.
BTW - If my wife just had a baby with special needs, do you like I should go out campaigning 24/7 for the Vice Presidency? That does not sound like good family values to me... putting yourself ahead of your family seems to be the new Republican mantra. First McCain cheats on his first wife, and now he picks a completely inexperienced person for VP who really just LOVES the lime-light.
Here we go again with the Republicans hoping the American people are dumb as rocks and will believe anything they are told.

They Said, "Pray for Rain"
Short-sighted conservative religious leaders recently asked their parishioners to "pray to God for rain during Obama's speech" at Mile High Stadium.
God has sent a clear message back to them... not one but TWO HURRICANES bearing down on America during the Republican convention.
If you believe in BAD omens... then don't vote Republican, that would be a true disaster.

SMACK!
After Obama delivers one of the most impressive speeches of the campaign, McCain comes out today and gives every woman in America a collective slap in the face!
There are many, many more qualified woman to be vice president. For him to belittle American woman by picking someone with ZERO foreign policy experience, almost NO executive experience and someone who stands for the same conservative mantra that has driven America in the complete wrong direction; is worst then unacceptable.
This is GENDER PANDERING at its finest.
I am not saying that the Governor of the most sparsely populated state in the Union does not have merit. I am just saying, if McCain has a heart attack as president, is she ready to lead. I think not.
This is a pitiful political stunt. I am glad Rush has his "Babe" on the ticket as he said today... but I have a feeling that American women will see through this horrible gender pandering.

There Was Not Always A Middle Class In Kansas
You may not remember an America without a middle class but you do not need to go back too far in history to get to a point where there were only the VERY RICH and the VERY POOR.
Before World War II, it was rich and poor only. There were a few points in time where a middle class started to form but it never took root and grew. Right before the stock market crash of 1929 we came close to having a robust middle class. Most of us who paid attention to our history lessons know that there was no middle class once the soup kitchen lines formed. It was quickly wiped out.
Surprisingly, through the Great Depression, the rich did just fine.
What you need to know, what you must understand... is that the very rich are absolutely OK with turning the clock back and putting the middle class back in the poor house. Those "high paying" manufacturing jobs are being outsourced and Walmart Greeters just don't make that much.
What will happen when both the husband's and wife's pay does not pay the bills anymore? It used to be that a single working spouse could provide for the whole family. We lost that in the 70's. Will your children have to stay at home until their 30 and work to make ends meet. Will you have to sell the house you have mortgaged to the hilt? Will you buy a old car to drive in? What exactly will you give up?
If you like a new car, if you like a nice home of your own, if you like being able to go and buy things freely at the store... you had better pay attention to this presidential election.
Putting John McCain in office. A man that can't even count how many homes he has. A man that has has lived in the lap of luxury since divorcing his first wife to marry his rich mistress. He does not understand what it means to pay 10% more for groceries, or what it means that gas prices are rising and piching the budget to the breaking point.
McCain does not understand you.
It saddens me greatly that my great state of Kansas, according to polls, will blindly vote for McCain. To do so does not represent true Kansas values.
Kansans should not vote for an adulterer.
Kansans should not vote for someone so rich, he does not know the number of homes his family owns.
Kansans should not vote for a man who so easily confuses the facts.
Kansans should not vote for a man that admits to not understanding the economy.
Kansans are humble people who want what is best for America. As the election draws nearer my deepest hope, is that Kansans reach deep into their soul and take a hard look.
A hard look at what type of World we want for our kids. This is not just another election. This election, like no other, could mean the end of the middle class and a rapid decline of our lifestyle. As rapid as the stock market crash in 1929.
Wake up, pay attention and vote smart. It is too important to blindly march to the drum of destruction for the American way of life. 8 more years of ignorant leadership could mean the end of the American Dream.

McCain Can't Remember How Many Houses He Has!
Nothing seems to stick to this guy but this actually might.
In an interview yesterday, McCain could not recall how many homes he has.
Let me ask you... how many to you own?
This guy is out of touch with America!
He is just a SUPER RICH old guy that is using his POW status to run for office.
This after Cindy says, "The only way to get around Arizona is on your private jet."
WOW... how many private jets do you have?
