Care2 at DNC - Day Three, Wednesday

We can't believe it's already day three of the Democratic National Convention, but time flies! We've already seen great speeches from Hillary Clinton, Senator Ted Kennedy, Michelle Obama, Governor Mark Warner and more. And we are eagerly awaiting a speech from President Bill Clinton, and of course the acceptance of the nomination by Senator Barack Obama.

Today, Heather gives a rundown of the past day at the DNC (including a fun rant about the media coverage of the event...don't miss that!) as well as what's going on at the Big Tent Denver, where Care2 is hanging out.



What are your thoughts about the convention so far? What are you looking forward to?

You people just don't get it do you.

Why do you think the government owes you! take a second job, if you can't paid your health insurance. I work hard I am tried of giving my hard earned tax dollars to free riders!
The democrats will raise our taxes! Obama does not see this to be a problem even if you make 30,000 per year! Anything where government as complete control - takes away are rights. Big Business doe what they want, bush has no control over that any more than you can tell your boss what to do..
Obama does not even repect the American flag...if you don't like it here go somewhere else. You don't go to Paris and tell them to change their flag or speak english... Obama was not a good senator he made 400,000 per year not did not vote on the issues - that a FACT!

Oh. And yes I got my rebate check. And I used it to pay for a fraction of the six months past due I have on my health insurance.

The Bush Republican Agenda has been in place for 8 years. This country is suffocating in debt, and quality of life is in a landslide for all americans. What does that have to do with Hilary Clinton's personal campaign contributions. The congress is in constant gridlock BECAUSE of republican filibustering. That is your Bush. This is what he has accomplished. I am sorry you are sick of Bush bashing. I am sick of it too. The solution? Get him outta there.

YOUR RIGHT WE MUST TAKE THIS COUNTRY BACK AND IT MUST HAPPEN NOW!

THAT IS WAY I AM VOTING FOR MCCAIN!~ WWW.GOP.COM ~ www.JohnMcCain.com

let's send the democrats where the sun don't shine!

Since 2006 the democrats have ruled the senate floor- raising gas prices...what are you stupid!

Stop blaming the Bush Party! Every sheep out there blames the Bush Party! When was the last time you saw a president give us a rebate check!

The democrats voted NO to regulating crude oil...what planet are you on! I guess following the crowd!

I cannot believe this has gone this far, since when is congress a Hollywood production! Wasteful government spending, most expensive campaigning in the history of congress between Obama and Hillary. Their won’t be any CHANGE IN MY POCKET LEFT!

NO Thanks! NO Bamanation!

I am voting for McCain and Cindy who would make a wonderful fist lady!

you have got to be an idiot to vote for Obama! What bullshit at the DNC!~ I grew up poor too and worked for everything I ever got...this party is screwed up from head to toe... It's sickening how many dumb voters support the democrats and never took the time to look into congress voting records...of what these senators have voted on! Thank God for Fox news! I am sick of people blaming the Bush Party - there are 535 officials who make up Congress including Hilliary and Obama what have done to date! Nothing! Oh yea now that thay are running they are going to do all these great things...bullshit! Obama recently voted NO to the Preventive Forclosure Act - this much needed bill prevented people from losing their homes! The bill got passed without him! yea that change for you.
McCain supported the Bill! NO BAMANATION! AND KID YOURSELF HILLIARY IS NOT GOING TO BE WORKING ON THE INSIDE - SHE IS NOT THE ONE RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT OBAMA IS-SHE SOLD OUT TO PAY HER DEBT BACK OF 20 MILLION DOLLARS TO THE PARTY THAT SCREWED HER! WHILE BILL CON WHO EVERYONE KNOWS HATED OBAMA - BUT MONEY TALKS AND BULLSHIT WALKS...NO THANKS- NO OBAMA!

I am fascinated and frustrated by the republican agenda and it's followers. These people have a cult like clarity of a world view. They seem to view themselves as victims, not of their GOP, but of a democratic conspiracy that their GOP has been fighting against. How do you rationalize with the delusional? How do you compete with all those scary graphics on FOX when these people believe they are watching news? We must take this country back. And it must happen now.

I am one women who will stand up to the bull crap that Hilliary Clinton is a Con, she sold out to pay her 20 million dollar debt that she owes to the Democratic Party! This is not a role model - her lying words of how Obama is ready to be president sicken me and not even 2 months ago she said is he not ready to lead...what has changed - her debt is paid in full at our expense! You can count of it out taxes will skyrocket and our country will be ruined if the democrats get in and there will be no return...look what happen when they took pray out of school - now are kids follow the horoscoopes of the day! If you believe in family values and morals then vote for John McCain!
www.JohnMcCain.com John McCain has a very good chance of winning this election. Don't you at least what to take a look at what's he about for yourself instead of following the a crowd of Con Artists.
www.JohnMcCain.com I dare you, you just might learn a thing or two...

I WAS A DEMOCRAT I AM NOW A REPUBLICAN~ Obama is a non-voting Illinois freshman senator- the only accomplishments he achieved is with the black community and of course his racist church of over 20 years… As a senator, he was not doing his job! How can people be that stupid not to check his voting records or background? I cannot believe this has gone this far, since when is congress a Hollywood production! Wasteful government spending, most expensive campaigning in the history of congress between Obama and Hillary IN THE BILLIONS NOT MILLIONS. Their won’t be any CHANGE LEFT IN MY POCKET!
YOU JUST WAIT HOW MUCH ARE TAXES WILL SKYROCKET IF THE DEMOCRATS GET IN!
MCCAIN IS NOT BUSH! JUST BeCAUSE THEY ARE IN THE SAME PARTY~ HILLIARY IS NOT OBAMA THEY ARE IN THE SAME PARTY. AND HILLIARY IS NOT WORKING ON THE INSIDE YOU HAVE TO BE A IDIOT TO BELIEVE THAT ONE! After her lying speech at the DNC - I have loss all respect for her and will NEVER VOTE FOR HER NEVER! SHE CANNOT BE TRUSTED! NO BAMANATION! ITS ABOUT TIME PEOPLE START TO GET TO KNOW MCCAIN!
www.JohnMcCain.com
VOTE: MCCAIN
www.JohnMcCain.com check it out i dare you! or be an idiot!




It is evident how much the Democratic Party cares about the American people and it is evident what change is…this is the biggest screw job of the century! If by a narrow escape this blasphemy gets threw the door, you bet we will all pay for this…

Oprah has backed Obama before 2000, they are both members of the same church- That church is racist, opposite to the kkk, but worst! Proof on youtube! Oprah produced the Movie "The great Debater" with Denzel Washington and Timed the movie to hit when Hillary was campiagning - that aided in 92 percent of all black voters to vote for Obama. I once had great respect for Hilliary, but after what she did at the DNC- I am sorry I have no respect for her or Bill Con!- THEY sold out! Her debt is paid at our expense.
I will never again vote for her NEVER! SHE CANNOT BE TRUSTED! After hearing her words Obama is ready, blah, blah, A freshman senator with no expericence, and a backgroud such as his. HE WAS NOT EVEN A GOOD SENATOR! NEVER VOTED ON THE ISSUES AND STILL TOOK HOME A 400,000 THOUSAND DOLLAR PAYCHECK! WE DO NOT NEED MORE OF SAME IN CONGRESS LIKE JOE BIDEN - FOUR YEARS - NO thanks! NO BAMANATION!
I AM GIVING MY VOTE TO JOHN MCCAIN! HE FOUGHT FOR ARE FREEDOM, HIS OWN SON IS FIGHTING IN IRAQ - MCCAIN DOES NOT WANT WAR ANY MORE THEN YOU OR I DO FOR HE KNOWS FRIST HAND - OBAMA OR BILL NEVER FOUGHT FOR OUR COUNTRY! CINDY MCCAIN IS WONDERFUL, CHECK OUT HER BACKGROUND! I am sick and tried of everyone blaming the bush party for everything THERE ARE 535 MEMBERS IN CONGRES - CHECK OUT bushes VOTING records- he never got the credit he deserved! When was the last time a president give us a rebate check! My taxes are lower with Bush, then with Clinton! Vote: John McCain!
