Economic Crisis Changes Electoral Map

New York Times:

The turmoil on Wall Street and the weakening economy are changing the contours of the presidential campaign map, giving new force to Senator Barack Obama's ambitious strategy to make incursions into Republican territory, while leading Senator John McCain to scale back his efforts to capture Democratic states.

Tuesday night:

McCain: William Ayers! William Ayers!

Obama: I've never b.o.m.b.e.d. anyone Senator. Have you?

McCain: Hammana hammana hammana

[MNmommy]

Heh.

[TheOppressed]

McCain: Well Senator I've not bombed America nor have I associated with anyone who has bombed America. Moreover, I've never associated with anyone who is unrepentant in bombing America. The issue Senator is the type of political orientation that brought you together with an unrepentant domestic terrorist. I guess in Chicago that is acceptable, but in middle America that is considered outrageous.

Obama: But I was only 8 years old......

McCain: You weren't 8 when you associated with this unrepentant terrorist. And it was just 2001 when Ayers said he had not bombed enough. I would think that would have been enough for you, but it wasn't. You continued your association after that interivew.

Obama: But I was only 8 years old....

NUFF SAID!!!

Year robbweeb we want that line from the One bigtime.

Just for the record, when O did "meet him", HE was a celebrated Professor, who he met through chairing a renowned charitable organization.

But that's not what's important, right? It's more pressing to look back 40 years, while we hear Winky Smurf ask that we don't look into the past.

What a freakin transparent joke all of it is. It's not wonder we're not looking at a complete spanking in November.

John "Keating Five" McCain is a Maverick on Wall Street issues.....ha ha ha ha ha ha ha...lets put Sarah Palin in charge of the economy, she seems to better understand the nuances...ha ha ha ha
Her previous experience balancing her checkbook gives her more than enough expertise--she's overqualified by GOP standards

[trollslayer]

They're all dumb. When you're measuring dumb is there really any nuance?

[Mogamboguru]

the McCain camp reportedly will bring a new state into play, where they are absolutely sure to b.e.a.t and outright a.n.n.i.h.i.l.a.t.e. the Obama-campaign hands-down:

The State Of Hysteria.

[ChiGuy]

I should say something profound here.
I'll be right back.....I gotta go check my Starbuck's cup.

[suzycolorado]

it says: stop wasting 5 dollars on a cup of coffee;)

[Heavy]

And stop taking a whole motorcade to get it ;)

Why aren't the troIIs at church?

[3Westies]

They dialed-a-prayer today.

[Heavy]

It isn't a full moon yet.

Winky Smurf is pushing for "End of Days". They're prepping for the rapture.

Palin has injected di-rt in the middle of an economic crisis. She doesn't care about the well-being of millions of Americans. She only cares about how she can st-e-al the Presidency for a man who doesn't deserve it because he associated with a man who ruined the lives of tens of thousands of people who lost their life savings in the S&L scandal which costs taxpayers billions.

John McCain received many favors from Ke-ating and in return he was investigated for suspected eth-ics vi-0-lations which had to do with intervening in loosening regulations.

[larazon]

i.e. loosening regulations for his friend, Keating, who cost taxpayers billions.

[darcy]

And Obama voted for the criminal bailout, so what makes him a hero? I'm voting for Nader.

[urweatherman]

You could say the same thing for Obama....but 100X worse. He associated with Raines and received lots of dough. Difference is that the Fannie and Freddie scandal will ruin millions of lives and cost taxpayers hundreds of billions! Which is worse? Hope you can do simple math!

[CyrusBeaucephus]

Ha ha ha you desperate Freak--John McCain is Mr Keating Five and Mr De-regulation. His bestest buddy Rick Davis is the Man Behind the Meltdown. Keep pounding that sand, boy

[Mogamboguru]

One of JMac's campaign managers was paid by Fannie Mae up to last month.

Would that be close enough to qualify JMac for Nepotism, in your eyes?

[baghdadjoe]

I love this GOP desperation. Keep it coming!

HILARIOUS.
