Hey, McCain voter...
Yeah, you, the one reading a Democratic web site

I'm wondering...

What's with all this talk about him being a POW 40 years ago? That's nice and all, but how is that going to fix the economy today?

I know that paid the price, but hell, he's a US senator, for God sakes...that's not good enough?

And another thing, wasn't he part of the same crew that got us all in this mess to begin with? Are we supposed to trust the same people to fix this? Man, that sounds crazy. I mean, really.

Where I come from, if you screw up and keep screwing up after getting a lot of benefit of the doubt you'll eventually get canned.

And these people have had eight long years to prove that they don't know what they're doing.

Even today, McCain admits that the economy isn't his strong suit. What else doesn't he know? And Palin knows even less than he does about national and international issues.

Wow.

That's just piss poor, don't you think?

And speaking Sarah Palin, what the hell does she know? Excuse me, but I highly doubt that they discuss field dressing moose at Davros, NATO and the G-8 summit. They tend to talk about international politics, trade, defense, economics and stuff like that.

When I last heard, she doesn't know anything about any of it. Have you heard?

Sorry, I guess not, because she hasn't done any interviews yet. (Boning up on Wikipedia....)

Oh, Unions... I guess that McCain and Palin don't like 'em.

I tell ya, that kind of attitude is going to go over like hotcakes here in, uh... Michigan.

Working folks really hate unions here.






PSYCH!!!


Oh, yeah, what's this I hear about Palin comparing herself with a pit bull wearing lipstick?

Is she saying that she's a bitch? Jeez, I hope not.


Another thing... McCain is a old dude that has had cancer four times... And if he dies in office, he'll hand off the rest of our lives to someone who doesn't know anything about anything and sounds suspiciously like THE CHURCH LADY.

Is this the kind of decisions he'll make as president? Half ass and a dollar short?

Excuse me, but that doesn't sound like a vote of confidence.

Lookee here... You're reading a Democratic site for a good reason, I guess. Maybe you're concerned that you're about to make a bad choice and you're trying to see why you should change sides. Believe it or not, that's a pretty smart way to go about this. Getting a different angle.

I don't blame you... McCain's a pretty risky proposition and he's getting even riskier by the day.

I tell you what. Go ahead and dig. Not just here, but even places that aren't as pro-Obama as we are. Ask questions, demand answers. Even about Obama.

Get informed.

And if you find out, for real, that McCain isn't as up to snuff as you currently think he is, come on back over here and talk to us.

We'll be all ears.

God bless!

1. Why, MrS! You are presenting them with LOGIC!
Not sure they could handle it. Maybe if you spoke to them in tongues.....

Kidding aside, excellent points you put in your post!

Hopefully, people will soon see through the haze of Caribou Barbie (and John McSame), and realize that the only thing they promise is more of the same, and worse.

2. This is one of those times ...
... when I wish a donation to DU could buy you an "Unlimited RECs" card to be used at your discretion - because if I had a thousand "RECs" in my account, I'd lay them all down on this post.

:toast: :bounce: :thumbsup: :kick: :loveya: :pals: :headbang: :yourock: :woohoo: :applause: :patriot:
