Comments on: Gingrich: McCain Won't Win On Experience

Former Speaker Says If Republicans Campaign Against Obama's Resume They Will Fail

But then he slept on it. And by the next morning his hair was in full flame, having been lighted by the dissenting Neolithic wing of the Supreme Court, whose head Neanderthal, Antonin Scalia, had warned that upholding the Constitution would be "devastating" and "almost certainly cause more Americans to be killed."

That was all it took -- one evening of watching the right-wing base chew on the red meat that Scalia had thrown them.

Literally overnight, McCain went from mild "concern" to the most exquisite of manufactured panic, now telling a New Jersey crowd that the Court "rendered a decision yesterday that I think is one of the worst decisions in the history of this country."

One more lunge to the right, and in a left-center year that promises "an overwhelming Democratic victory," as presidential historian Allan Lichtman recently told the Politico.

Added fellow presidential historian Joan Hoff, "McCain shouldn''t win it." Said Alan Abramowitz, a professor of public opinion and the presidency, "It would be a pretty stunning upset if McCain won."

In Iowa, Bush is MIA, Yet Again. Remember His Negligence with Katrina? Remember His Reading "The Pet Goat" After 9/11? The Man is a Walking Lump of Malfeasance.

I am sorry it is the person not the policies. If all you look at is the policies then why even vote who cares if the President of the United States hates the United States. Who cares if he takes an oath on the Koran why is it even a law then that they have to be a US resident why don''''t we just elect anybody!

You are unbelieveably misinformed, and its unfortunate for America that there are tens of millions of other misinformed voters out there just like you, no wonder Bush got elected twice!!!

whatithink - They need to stay home and let adults vote this November.

Is that the same adults that vote 95%?

american30,

Have a good day. I''m afraid you have been a bit misguided by the GOP propaganda machine. Read about FDR and how he created the middle class. Read also on Bush''s grandfather and how much he hated him for doing it.

[whatithink-2009]

american30,

When I vote, I''m not only voting for the candidate but also the policies behind the candidate. Obama/Clinton/Edwards would have primarily the same type of advisors and would primarily vote for similar supreme court justices (a very, very important thing to consider). The same would have been the case with Kerry. So, compared with Kerry and Bush and considering I''m a middle class voter who is interested in keeping a strong middle class in this country, Kerry was the only option available. Not because he was the best possible presidential material, but because his policies were more aligned to supporting the middle class. With that said, between Obama and McCain there is really only one decision...Obama. I would have voted for Clinton or Edwards if they were the candidates as well.

Well I actually have a job the democrats don''t support me so I must go to work now. It was nice talking with you have a great day!

Maybe you should just go somewhere where they appoint presidents then you wouldn''t have to worry about it.

[whatithink-2009]

american30,

Considering that Obama/Clinton/Edwards have very similar policies and McCain has completely opposite policies, the fact that you would vote for Edwards or Clinton over McCain but not Obama means you are living in a state of confusion. That''s like a vegetarian picking a hamburger over carrots because the peas are not available.

[american30]

I don''t see how you can say it is a voting failure. I disagree do you actually think Kerry was a better choice!

[american30]

And you know I am not a dead set Republican I think I would have actually supported Edwards if he were up agaisnt McCain but I just can''t bring myself to support Obama I might would have even considered Hillary!

[whatithink-2009]

american30,

Doesn''t matter. If personal responsibility is your mantra, you need to take personal responsibility for your voting failures. The fact that you have aligned with other fools does not absolve you.

[american30]

Well I am not alone because he did win so my vote was not the only one cast!

[whatithink-2009]

american30,

If you were truly an adult and blamed yourself, you''d go somewhere and reflect on your poor voting decisions over the last AT LEAST two past elections. Bush is a FAILURE. Yet, you blame everyone else but him because that would require YOU blaming YOURSELF for voting for him.

Here is some advice...Take YOUR OWN MEDICINE.

[american30]

And by the way I didn''t mention anything about him being muslim You did?? I just don''t understand how you can support someone who has listened to and support such people that are so hateful to America. Please enlighten me I am just trying to understand. It is very conveient of him not to come out and say he does not support those people and now he will salute the flag. I am sorry it just seems a little to late for me. But we all have our opinions we can support anyone we want that is America! It wouldn''t be if we couldn''t have our own opinions. And this is my point about Bush everyone is quick to blame everything on the Republican''s just wait until the next Democratic president it will be the same with him win the first thing goes wrong. I am sorry but that is why we have a Congress and Senate not everything is the President''s fault.
We have to take some responsibility for our own actions we are adults (at least some of us). I mean really we know what we are capable of and what we are not it is nonsense to act like 3 year olds and blame everything on our big brother or big sister. Get my point?

[whatithink-2009]

american30,

Look at history? Most of the members of the Republican party were the old Democrats, so your history is blaming the people within the GOP. Learn YOUR history.

"If I had to guess who was more responsible between a $17K a year strawberry picker and the $300K a year banker who gave him a $700K loan, it wouldN''T be hard for me to blame first the banker."

chitown639,

If I had to guess who was more responsible between a $17K a year strawberry picker and the $300K a year banker who gave him a $700K loan, it would be hard for me to blame first the banker. You''re going to offer a lot of money to poor people and wonder why they were too stupid to take it. It should have been the responsibility of the banks to prevent this from happening. However, they didn''t keep the loan and received their fat commmissions, so didn''t care. The first responsibility is with the banks.

[american30]

I don''t have to insult the democrats they do it all by theirselves. Look at history. You are just mad because you know I am right.
