Democrats Wake Up there is blood in the water, go for the kill! September 10, 2008 Sean Lewis
McCain turned hard RIGHT in his selection of Palin. He had to because he had nothing else to run on. He IS part of the Republican machine that has decimated the US economy. Yes the Surge was a success technically but so was the initial invasion! The true test will be what happens now that the surge is over. This may be another premature 'Mission Accomplished!' Lets not also forget that if the Bush Administration had not rushed to war, with Mccain's support by the way; we would not have needed the surge in the first place. How much credit do you get organizing a bucket brigade after the barn has already burned down? Let's also realize that Palin has not given a REAL interview or taken questions from the press. WHEN is she? It is clear she is being sheltered because she is so far off the beaten path of National and International events and politics the gaping hole of knowledge she does not have would be clear to anyone. Also if you want to know how to handle Palin think of how the Republicans treat Hillary, take a page out of the Republican playbook. Take off the gloves, the rest of the world will also. She keeps repeating the same speech like a trained parrot! Come On! McCain keeps talking about change and being a maverick? Well based on his pick for VP, McCain seems to be full heartedly embracing the same politics of the Bush Administration. He is pandering to the Right and practicing the politics of divisiveness Bush used to get elected. This is Change? The more McCain does this, the more he is becoming the very thing he says he is not, a party man, another Bush. Bush ran based on fear and the lack patriotism of the Democrats, McCain is doing the same thing? This is Change? Bush ignored the downturn of the economy, McCain is doing the same. This is change? Bush pandered to the Religious Right, McCain is doing the same. This is Change? Bush ran on slogans, platitudes, attacks and no actual details on HOW he would fix things. McCain is doing the same. This is Change? Forget Plain or view Palin for what she REALLY is. The Desperate move of a drowning political campaign. The way the Republicans blindly embraced Palin based on nothing but a prepared speech in a secure setting. The way Palin energized the Republican party, shows just how little McCain has to offer. These are the actions not based on logic, but fear, desperation and need. The Republicans were drowning and clung to the first thing floating by, it doesn't matter what it is, it just mattered it was there, The Republicans KNOW the Bush Administration failed utterly and completely. The Republicans had the opportunity to put into practice all of their political beliefs. The result is complete and total failure on a systemic level. The Republican Broke the US, figuratively and literally. McCain with his pick of Palin, his pandering to the religious right, the fear mongering about America's safety, the embrace of partisan rovian politics is the final page of the selling out of the McCain legacy. McCain HAS changed, for the worst. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Thanks for being part of "PoliticalForum" at Google Groups.
