if first term senators don't deserve to be President, does a dumb "governor" who lets her husband abuse his rights really deserve to be Vice President, and a heartbeat away from the Presidency?

senile old men who call their supporters "fellow prisoners" do not deserve to be President

When he promised almost immediate troop withdrawal from Iraq upon his election and when he pledged to accept matching public funds for his campaign and therefore the campaign spending limits. He reneged on both promises almost immediately after Hillary Clinton withdrew from the race, which makes him look like a LIAR who made those promises only to get votes.

First and foremost, I have been an obama supporter for months now.

But I do not think that buying a primetime show will change many minds at this point. People are annoyed with this election. People either hate obama or mccain. People who have already made up their mind that they hate obama will not watch. People that already like him may watch, but that doesnt make a difference. The undecided are so sick of it all that maybe they will switch the channel to baseball, or just turn the tv off.

As for me, I would like to think that maybe a few undecideds will watch and decide that barack is the better way to go. But I think it really is more of an annoyance to the majority of people at this point. I would like to see more positive commercials with ideas instead.

(And by the way, McCain's health care credit idea is SHIT) ...sorry couldn't resist.

It is shit, but it's a plan, one that doesn't center on raising taxes and importing drugs subsidized by the Canadian government.

It is irresponsible to rely on another government and its tax money to subsidize our drugs.
