"ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, the New York Times, Washington Post, etc are telling me that voters don't care.
I must be an anomoly, because it matters to me.

"PatrickPete - This site is about Obama - see the name of the domain in your browser. As far as the Huffington Post page, yes, I read that and re-watched the videos. Which one has "kill him"? All I am seeing is a claim in text that it was said. As far as your opinion on why McCain left his wife, that's amazing that you were a confidant of his and know what happened in their relationship in the years after he returned from the war. The only thing we know is that they got divorced. There is no parallel there to the people Obama has been involved with throughout his political career. Regarding the Keating Five, McCain was cleared of all charges. Fannie Mae and Obama comes down to more than just that he was the second biggest recipient historically from them - impressive in just three years. Two of Obama's fundraisers are Jim Johnson and Franklin Raines. Given his penchant for pork in the past, I think it's fair to say he has engaged in political favors for donations. And Johnson was on..." - Shawn Collins

Governor Palin was reminding the heckler that the military fight to protect our rights.
A document, by itself, doesn't protect the country.
No idea what you're talking about with a "missing CBS interview"." - Shawn Collins
"I've searched around and I cannot find any audio or video with this "kill him" shout.
As far as no one from the McCain camp stepping forward, what are they responding to exactly? Claims that somebody shouted it?
And the MSNBC thing - the McCain camp was commenting on criticism by Obama about the crowds getting riled up - no mention of "kill him" there.
> How low will your party go to try to get elected?
All I can find are people disgusted by Obama's relationships - that is despicable? This linking of the McCain campaign to somebody that supposedly shouted something is despicable.
If it did happen, I would not be surprised at all if it were a plant. It's not as if that didn't happen during the Dem primaries." - Shawn Collins
"I've heard Obama make both claims you've made above - I haven't seen evidence to back either up.
However, the tax cut for 95% of Americans was long ago debunked, and Obama keeps repeating the lie." - Shawn Collins
"When have I encouraged people to believe Obama is a terrorist?
I've pointed out that he has ties to terrorists, a slumlord, a racist preacher, an organization that is known for voter fraud, and he's tight with folks in Fannie Mae that are in the middle of the economic mess.
I think these combined associations are telling about his character, and that should be an issue." - Shawn Collins
"Jeff -
I didn't say Obama was a terrorist, but rather that he has had a relationship with one.
I don't agree that the full story is at CNN - see http://townhall.com/Columnists...... to fill in the blanks on the relationship.
> If some nut job shoots him because of it, all of the right wingers who encourage this bullshit will be to blame.
Right wingers would be to blame for some nut being outraged about Obama's connections to Ayers, Dohrn, Khalidi, Wright, Pfleger, etc?
I don't accept that premise at all - Obama preaches transparency, so why shouldn't we know his past? Not just his cleaned up past in his memoirs, but the full story." - Shawn Collins
"Just a few weeks ago, Obama was saying how he could walk and chew gum at the same time when McCain insisted that they focus on the economy.
So, since Obama doesn't have any solutions for the economy, I think it's rather reasonable that he explain all of these skeletons in his closet.
After all, he's applying for a pretty important job, and we can't afford to have an unknown quantity in there." - Shawn Collins
"Wow, you're just Tommy Talking Point today, aren't you?

""Paul" -
What is the source for your claim that McCain is "the man with almost the most NO VOTES in the senate".
Have a look at this link for a factual look at Obama's voting record:

> who was embroiled in a scandal that cost a lot of tax payers their savings
Please explain McCain's role.
> who unapologetically wants to to keep taxing the middle class which giving relief to the rich
Both candidates will continue to tax the middle class. But look back at the votes to see that Obama has continually votes for tax increases on the middle class.
What triggered this change of heart for him? For years, he has supported increased taxes for the middle class, and now he's promising an about face?
> giving relief to the rich

"It's a franchise called Wings To Go (http://www.wingstogo.com/) and it is at the site of the old Katie's Restaurant.

As I mentioned above, you can see the 14 lies on issues from Biden during that debate at http://www.johnmccain.com/McCa......
The mainstream media does nothing but talk about McCain and mischaracterize his statements.
How many times have you seen them correct Obama on the lie that he will cut taxes for 95%? That would be an amazing feat, since that number exceeds the percent of workers who actually pay taxes.
But still, he repeated it again a few times tonight." - Shawn Collins
"The dollar is strengthening against the Euro - we have challenges here, but the economy is even more fragile in other parts of the world.
Oil has been steadily going down, too.
While there are international ramifications of a strengthening dollar, it is naive and shortsighted to think it is a bad thing." - Shawn Collins
