  • Doesn't seem like you are interested in a debate, but here we go....

    Unless they cheat again McCain has the overwhelming task of re-selling the war.

    Mccain is also pushing change. A change from what? all the policies he's supported the last 8 years?

    40 years in Washington has yielded a lot of good things, but he's also got a lot of dirt. He was one of the Keating five after all.

    Under direct questioning the house of cards will fall.

    however, McCain does have the one endorsement that really counts...

    Diebold.

    I wouldn't really expect anyone to understand a lot of what you say.

    What is your stance on the Iraq war?

    ummm... right... Don't confuse you not knowing his stance on the Iraq war with him not having one.

    you dont think this could look bad for obama in a national VERY VERY popular debate..
    In debates, Obama has stated that he will immediately begin drawing down troop levels at a rate of one to two brigades per month, with a goal of having all combat troops out in 16 months. He also said he would not build any permanent bases in Iraq, and only keep enough troops in the country to secure U.S. sites like our Embassy. Then, he would restructure our anti-terrorist actions so that they are primarily fronted by Special Forces. That's off the top of my head.

    They both have plans, so you're wrong on that point. Whether Obama's plan earns him more votes than McCain's remains to be seen. But to say that there is no plan is - well, up there with saying the only person that could beat McCain is Gravel.

    Obama doesn't have a stance on the war?

    can I have some of what you are smoking?

    it's pretty simple

    If Americans vote for "endless war" than we deserve what we get.

    stop lying to yourself..hes a war hero.. the only guy who could of defeated him is Gravel..both with ties to vietnam...a fine line between the two

    instead its gonna be clinton or obama and no one knows what the hell they stand for... when the debates start and they ask a war hero about america..

    THE VOTES WILL ROLL IN

    what difference does that make?

    fyi, the post above is why you are delusional. the american people have turned on the war. mccain cannot win on it. it gives him no advantage. the dems kill him on all other issues and the republicans don't like him. he's going to lose. big.

    Ya know what, i give up. You're absolutely right. You, hillary, and everyone else who says this shit. You're fucking brilliant. Obama has no positions on anything. Nothing. He's a wind bag. He's been standing around with his thumb in his ass for the past 13 months drooling on himself and winning the support if millions americans and landing many high profile endorsements. i wonder how? The guy hasn't got one position on anything.

  • So you're bitter because your candidate isn't in the field anymore, so now you're going to support McCain?

    No matter who the Democratic nominee is, I think they have the upper hand on John McCain.

    Here's what I don't understand. Right now the Presidents nationwide approval rating is at 29%. So why the hell is John McCain running to embrace his policies? We'll just say the country is 50/50 between Dems and Republicans. That still means that almost half of the Republicans don't approve of the Bush policies either.

    Flip flopping on the Bush tax cuts and torture is not the way to head into a general election. John McCain can talk all he wants about the surge working, but all it has really done is get the violence down to the level they were before the peak which caused us to send in more troops.

    i would rather have obama than mccain but im not voting for either one...but im gonna remember this thread and these ridiculous replies and pull it back out in november.


    sheep.



    and to the ridiculous.. obama hasnt made clear his strategy

    his plan is to move the troops from iraq and spread them around the middle east

    i dont know about you...but is this open ended to anyone????

    USE YOUR BRAINS!


    facts.... its the only way to go people...anyone can call someone delusional...but the fact remains...

    obama doesnt have a strategy

    MCCAIN does...


    this is going to make McCain president unless Obama starts being honest...this is the only way the democrats or any party can win... they werent honest in 2004 and they still arent in 2008...

    dude... this makes sense to me and you... but when it comes time to vote..this country isnt going to vote based on history and facts

    the majority are going to relate to an OLD WHITE MAN


    this is your next president and is why i will state again

    Gravel or Nader up against McCain are the only ones that could have beat him... Nader wont get air time and gravel has been silenced by a party who is content on losing another election... almost as if... the democrats are secretly republican trying to sabotage the election


    THIS IS NOT DELUSION

    and we shall see come november

    So, let me see if I follow here.

    Obama's plan is to move troops out of Iraq and into other areas of the Middle East.

    Obama doesn't have a plan.

    Got it. Thanks for the - um - clarification.

    Sorry man, but re-deploying the troops to Afghanistan sounds like a good idea to me.

    calling people 'sheep' rather than supporting your views with any form of what the rest of us call 'logic' is no reply.
