What You Probably Wont Hear About Tonight:

  In an attempt to deflect the attention off of Sen McCain's economic record, we'll probably hear little from John about the Wall Street financial crisis in tonight's second debate. Even though this is the most important and serious issue concerning Americans right now. Could that be because Sen McSame has voted with Bush more than 90% of the time over these past eight years? Could it be because John has championed himself as Mr. Deregulation for all of his too lengthy 26 year Senate career? Sen McCain is clearly a part of the problem, not the solution as far as what is broken in Washington these days. He is basically offering the exact same economic plan that has put America in the hole it now finds itself in.

  I hope we Americans all get to enjoy the retirement years most of us have saved for. Of course we're likely to now have to learn how to get by on a little less. Because our retirement accounts and 401 K's have been stolen by a corrupt bunch of already ultra wealthy Wall Street bankers. To bail them out of the mess they got themselves into with their insatiable greed. Their financial problems have now become the American peoples problem. All with the approval of our Congress, and current Pres.

  Is there any line the Republican party wont cross in this 2008 election season? Insinuating that a U.S. Senator is a terrorist sympathizer is disgusting. It represents a new low in the American political scene. The newspapers and Television MSM that run these kinds of personal smear ads should be ashamed of themselves. They also represent a new low in American political journalism. They now have even less credibility than "Baghdad Bob" had in the eyes of decent Americans. I guess Team McCain can't run on its actual record of the past twenty six years in the Senate, because its record is that bad. It will serve Sen Obama well if he keeps this Wall Street bailout in tonight's debate. As one of  Bill Clinton's main campaign advisers James Carville said during Bill's run in 1992, it's about the economy stupid!
