#1 Sounds a lot like pandering to me. First, he tells the rubes how much he's going to give them. Second, he tells them how much he's going to cut taxes. He gets applause on both counts. Neither he nor anyone else gets to have their cake and eat it too, and that sounds exactly like what he just promised them.

In a country of 300 million people we've GOT to have some better choices for POTUS than these three lying jerks. Thinking that one of them will be the next President is depressing as Hell.

#2 Guilt ridden, ear-tickling platitudes and victimization confirmations. A gross example of good breath wasted. If he were to gain ONE vote from his attendance I'd be astonished.

#3 They do love to be fawned over though, and I think you're right, not a single vote. Not when they can have a shot a putting a brother in there.

#4 Sad to say, but blacks are more driven by race in voting than whites, anymore, especially concerning Obama.

#5 "You, boy! Another julep over here!" would probably be out of line, I guess...

#6 As Mr. J. Jackson or Mr. S. Lee would quip - it's ok for them to say it, but racist for anyone else.

#7 Enduring McPain's pandering and stuttering is causing excess stomach acid. Why do I have flashbacks of '96 and Dead Man Dole ? Any decent dog could have trounced Billy then. Any reasonable Republican ought to be able to whip the Magic Man with the forked tongue. McPain is only the candidate until the first round of voting at the convention, correct ? Maybe they'll get some intelligence and toss his shifty ass, put in a real candidate and roll over Barry like a steam roller over a drunk in the gutter.

#8 Woozle, its not going to happen.

I can tell you from personal experiece with 2 different state GOP organizations, that they country clubber's at the top would rather control a loser party than lose control of a winner.

UNtil the GOP cleans house and boots the go-along get-along RINO, it will continue to lose.

#9 "Sad to say, but blacks are more driven by race in voting than whites, anymore, especially concerning Obama."

-which is why I think there will be a huge racial wedge driven this fall between the two.

Scary. Deeply disturbing.

Blacks are more driven by race, period.
