It also explains his ability to cross the aisle in a way the dems have nightmares about. <BR/><BR/>Paul will it be any worse than what the far right did to him earlier this year? I'd say that Rush and Mark and Sean and Michelle and and and pretty much ripped off his head and crapped down his neck and yet he was able to withstand those attacks. <BR/><BR/>Don't forget that the 65+ crowd comes out in huge numbers to vote and I have a feeling that many of them will vote for him. He's also been able to really get the independents behind him as well.The Vegas Art Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09800692010017718392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14598933.post-62295535280322711642008-04-27T20:21:00.000-06:002008-04-27T20:21:00.000-06:00thanks for this info karen...

I may not agree with him on everything, but that is life and I don't agree with a lot of my friends all the time. He will be a great President. I think in the end America prefers what it knows vs. the unknown and that is Barack Obama.

I do think that he's a better choice than the other two but right now I wish we had some other better choice. :) Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04341552847782764780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14598933.post-2241950819193648982008-04-26T19:43:00.000-06:002008-04-26T19:43:00.000-06:00Thanks for the post, Karen.

I think McCain should have let it go, especially after Obama did the taunt that if he's the leader of the party he should have the power to get the ad pulled. Self serving and smugness again from the unifying candidate who is above any reproach, lest it be called racist. How about when all the attacks are lodged on McCain's age? Does he call ageism? He won't because he is the change guy.Karen Townsendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12692791436106987353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14598933.post-13436872512726492912008-04-26T12:38:00.000-06:002008-04-26T12:38:00.000-06:00McCain will lose any lead and more after the Democ...McCain will lose any lead and more after the Democrats quit demonizing each other and turn attention to him after their choice is made in August. The media assault will be so relentless as will their failure to give McCain the same amount of time that the Democrat will have.<BR/>The Republican N.C. ad will look like childs play compared to what the DNC will do to him..<BR/><BR/>Speaking of which, I think he's really handling that bad. It is not racist or bigoted to point out a man actively practing both qualities and his association to a presidential candidate. We seem not even allowed to discuss such a man without being accused of the same things he preaches.Paul is a Hermithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11119019764545408730noreply@blogger.com
