I registered as an independent because I was not impressed by either party. Now that I have followed very closly this election and seen how far the RNC is willing to go with spreading lies I can only pray for this Country because after reading these comments, this country seems all to ready to believe anything and everything negative they hear. Quite frankly, it was not until (even though Obama's speach at the convention was inspiring)after the republican convention when I heard the VP nominee speak, that I formed an opinion about who I would vote for. Shame on you for buying into the Republican's crap and attempts to cover up the facts they have been lying to us for the past eight years. It might do some of you some good to actually do research before speaking instead of just spreading untruths and hate. If you have children, I pray that you are able to teach honesty, integrity and the pursuit of justice instead of this trash. God bless this country and remove the hate that blinds us ot he truth.

Thu Sep 11, 2008

Washington (The Daily Standard) – IT’S WIDELY ACCEPTED now that Barack Obama would be better off if he’d picked Hillary Clinton as his vice presidential running mate instead of Joe Biden. Obama had his reasons, particularly his discomfort with her as his actual vice president if he’s elected. Still, Obama sacrificed a stronger ticket by rejecting Clinton.

Absent Hillary, the contest between Obama-Biden and the Republican ticket of John McCain and Sarah Palin is throwing the Democrats into disarray. The consequences of Obama’s veep decision appear mostly to favor McCain. And if Obama had picked Hillary? Here are a few of the differences.

No Palin. Okay, McCain might have picked her anyway. He was looking for a running mate who would help him shake up the campaign. And Palin has delivered spectacularly on that. But choosing her would have seemed far less of a game-changer had Obama picked Clinton. Palin would have been merely the second female running mate in 2008. And her appeal to those who had voted for Clinton in the primaries would have been reduced if not nullified altogether.

As a result, the prospects of the other potential game-changers McCain was considering–Democratic senator Joe Lieberman and pro-choice ex-Pennsylvania governor Tom Ridge–would surely have risen. And while it’s unknowable whether McCain would have picked Palin if Obama had gone with Clinton, selecting Palin would have been a lot less likely.

No Biden. He’s not an albatross, but he certainly hasn’t given Obama a boost. He has brought no balance to the ticket, not in regard to class, gender, ideology, or anything except longevity in Washington. Worse, unlike Palin, he’s generated no enthusiasm or excitement. Biden has little appeal to the working class voters, especially women, who swarmed to Clinton in the primaries. He lacks the populist streak that Clinton had fashioned for herself. Biden is simply a weaker running mate.

Party unity. Democrats have come together fairly well behind the Obama-Biden ticket–but not as well as they would have if Obama had chosen Clinton. We still hear from disgruntled Hillary backers. Reporters have discovered they’re easy to find at McCain-Palin rallies. Polls can’t tell us how many will ultimately vote for McCain and Palin. But a chunk of them will–perhaps a few million–which means that Democrats aren’t as unified as they might have been.

Ohio and Pennsylvania. Republicans figured these states, notably Pennsylvania, were all but goners if Clinton won the Democratic nomination. Even as veep, she’d have had a favorable impact.

This article is good and so true. To put it succinctly, Obama is very good at discussing the questions, but has failed to learn how to answer them. The more I know about him, which I had to learn all of it on my own because the media failed to vet him, the more I dislike. I don't want a socialist country, wealth redistribution, or a community army. I also don't support FISA. I hate his vote on the Born Alive Protection Act, on the early release of sexual predators, and the fact that he supports sex ed in Kindergarten. Argue that one and I'll send a link to the bill - it is not about sexual predators and stranger danger. Obama himself even said (and its on youtube - search Obama and sex education for Kindergarten) that it's about abstinence. But its more - it's about disease, abstinence, contraceptives, etc. Obama said teaching kindergarteners sex ed "is the right thing to do." He went on to say that learning from friends isn't good, and that abstinence must be taught early. Good morning.
