Senator Obama is slipping in the polls. Please send this article to ALL
YOUR contacts. The US simply can't take another four years of dishonesty.

America ....wake up. Palin and McCain will ruin your country even more. And honesty is lacking in both of them.

Too many people never get beyond the window dressing and appearance.. I feel sad for America...and where it is going to go if these two get in office.. IT is like no matter how much suffering is going on, no one cares, and no one is blaming the people who caused it; Republicans... Fine, keep on suffering... it will get 100 or 1000 times worse if these two get into office.. Maybe then the dots will start connecting.

The Republicans use religion. There is no place in politics for religion. I for one saw right through Palin. She wears what she is if someone takes the time to look. If voted in and McCain dies she will do the very same thing as the President. Pretty scary! The other problem with Americans they don't look beyond the window dressing.
I simply can't take another 4 years of this and maybe worse. When Daddy Bush was in office we almost lost everythign then. When McCain says no more pork he menas to cut every thing that helps we the people. The big corporations will get richer while we the people struggle even more. The sheeple are going to elect the wrong person because they need to be lead around by the nose.
The sheeple want the governemnt to do everything for them. I for one want to take care of my self. I don't want to give up my freedom for security. which will be a false security.
Lets hope these polls are wrong.

Everytime I see Palin now I cringe. What a dishonest, cruel, deceitful woman. Thanks for post, Clever.

In the last eight years, we've gone from a national budget surplus to an insurmountable national deficit. Seven years after 9/11, Bin Laden is still at large. We've lost more than 4,000 American soldiers fighting in a country that wasn't involved in the attacks on ours. We and the rest of the world have witnessed evidence of US government sponsored torture -- and seen the world-wide good will that 9/11 garnered us squandered to pursue the interests of big oil. We've gone from fulfilled dreams of home ownership to record numbers of home foreclosures. Retirement savings that were growing are now devastated by market declines.
GET ON MESSAGE AND STAY ON MESSAGE. McCain = Bush, the economy sucks, our national security situation is more dire than ever due to the failed Republican policies. Repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat...

As they say: "The truth shall set us free." May the truth about Palin come out so that the American people can see her for what she is.

This is a very serious election people.Probably the most crucial decision we will all make together. Please truly consider the ramifications of having those 2 crazies in office. Think about our everyday lives. The price of gas, milk, electricity, food, water, rent or the morgtage....and then on top of it all, the environment, animal & HUMAN rights. It has been dire and unhappy for TOO LONG! Please let us come together..ALL of us, and bring a young, fresh open-minded perspective to this American Dream that has turned into a nightmare. We all have very similar values here..we ALL CARE, right? So set an example & let us create a MOVEMENT that will blow them away. Let us be the Americans we can be...proud, strong...& SMART. Let's show them what we are made of!!! LET'S SHOW THE WORLD THAT WE CAN STAND UNITED AND THAT WE ARE UNWAVERING WHEN IT COMES TO LOVING OUR COUNTRY! DEEP DOWN WE DO KNOW WHAT IS RIGHT...even if it rubs us the wrong way..that is what VALUES are for! SAVE US BARACK...SAVE US FROM THEM!
GO OBAMA!

Oh, this nasty woman. I so can't wait for a debate between her and Biden. She doesn't have a leg to stand on. Let's vote and vote for change. Obama won't be able to fix, all these idiots have done, but, at least he is for change. Gotta start somewhere.

what is really interesting is this race has become about Obama and Palin. McCain has sort of slipped to the "down low" for awhile and is letting Palin shock wave get his votes. This irritates me.

I saw a news show on PBS that said they thought this was the peak of Palin mania and once debates begin they thought Obama would pick up a lot more support from voters who would probably refocus on the issues. I PRAY that is true.

Yes, that's one thing about Obama that's different from any Republican. With Republicans, they pray that their candidate will just keep there mouths shut b/c they lose thousands of votes for every idiotic utterance that comes from their lips, but with Obama it's the opposite--idiotic or otherwise, if you listen you will be mesmorized.
