Let's Not Debate!


I think this clearly illustrates John McCain's view of campaigning to be president: It is a game which has nothing to do with running a country. Once again he doesn't get it. This is a golden opportunity to outline the problem and present solutions. To communicate to the people exactly what's going on.


It's strange he doesn't understand this since he claims he came to Washington as a footsoldier in the "great communicator's" revolution.


It seems he is even more of a Bushie than I thought. To him campaigning is about treating the voters like children. What possible point could there be to having to talk to children about the problems in our country?

Really?




Can we please just stop this? I'm not saying every Republican is an idiot. I'm not even saying that Sarah Palin is an idiot. Maybe if she had spent the last 20 months running for president, she would be an acceptable Republican VP candidate. But this is just offensive to every American. And it is cruel to her. Maybe in four years she'll be a conservative superstar with a real future on the national stage. But, right now, she's barely qualified to be an assistant secretary of energy and McCain wants to make her one step from being president behind the oldest man to be a nominee for either major party.


Enough.
