McCain still thinks he's a young and chipper 55, when the country of Czechoslovakia still existed.

A little nitpicky, but he's still citing a country that no longer exists...

McCain just said the United States should set up a missle defense system in Czechoslovakia. Should we assume he meant the Czech Republic?

This has to be rectified. He has to be elected as President so he can reunite "two peoples" who didn't wnt to be united in the first place.

He's perfect, just like the stooge georgie. Tell him all he has to do is stay focused on the teleprompter, and read what's there.

The problem is; he just has to stay focused....... stay focused..... stay focused.

COME'ON JOHN ----- YOU CAN DO IT!!!!

McCain asks for funds to extend the Siegfried Line to Prussia.

McCain needs that lump in his back that Bush had so Karl can tell him what to say.
He is already a puppet, but he needs someone doing voice over to get the story right.

John McCain not only has *NO* business running for President, he should be removed for the Senate.

African-americans support Obama becuase they believe a black man can lead this nation.

White women support Clinton because the believe a woman can lead this nation.

The elderly are the most outspoken AGAINST McSame because they know what a hard job it is and find it hard to believe that a senior citizen can live up to the rigors of the job for FOUR YEARS! He will be 76 when his term ends! 11 years past retirement!

I think they are more outspoken against than for that. They know the McNutjob, pandering to this corporate supporters, will continue to screw the aged through healthcare butcher, cutting social security, and the rest.

Not just because he's old like them, and they know they can't hack it.

Senator Obama is going to blow the professional POW out of the water in November. McCain has had a free ride for too long.

Naw, he meant Czechoslovakia, that's Old School, man.

It just seems cruel to exploit this man, can they still replace him? Is that the plan, shock Obama with a new candidate he has not familiarized himself with?

Don't think they can, look at the possible replacements:

Romney- Corporate Elitist who never moves his upper lip. Ever.

Huckabee- likeable guy but can't see him debating Obama- he'd have everyone's foot in his mouth.

Paul- scares the bejeezus out of every true Republican.

Guiliani- Scares the bejeezus out of every Evangelical Republican.

The actor dude, oh yeah Thompson- Don't think he cares enough. Better to play people on tv and in Clancy novels-turned movies.

The others- an assortment of political extremists, racists, and other bigots.

So, McCain is the best they got. Truly frightening.

He probably still thinks Prussia is a country.

McCain is sooo out of it--in sooo many ways. Pathetic that the GOP should run a hero from 40 yrs ago to act as front man for all their corporate giveaway plans for our future.

Hear, hear! And I propose that after the missile defense system is firmly entrenched in Czechoslovakia and fuctional, we move on to protect our great allies in the Duchy of Grand Fenwick. After all, their Q-bomb may no longer be the deterent that it once was.

One must wonder if the lethargic and dull-witted Republicans will be able to develop any weapons against Obama that weren't already used by the Clinton campaign. Will the Republicans be fighting WWIII with Vietnam-era weaponry?

McCain, bless that senile old man, has absolutely no clue of the what's going on. I bet if his handlers told him that the USSR was marching on Poland, he'd be out denouncing Yeltsin for giving in to Czarist forces.

There's only one issue remaining...
Will Obama bring Nader, Gravel, Kucinich, Paul, Richardson and others like them into his administration, leaders who understand the kind of change that the U.S. needs, who have the vision to steer us through the years ahead.

I predict that if he doesn't he will have a besieged, stagnant, handicapped and, ultimately, failed administration - then out after four years with the U.S. in even worse shape than today.

Re: John McCain;
I have no use for a man who dumps his handicapped first wife to marry the Barbie doll he was schtupping in the bushes. If John McCain is the new Republican family values candidate I have a great suggestion for his veep; Larry Flynt.

I agree! What a scumbucket. Dumped his first wife because 'she got fat and was 3" shorter' from the horrendous car wreck she was in while he was in Hanoi Hilton. She was also raising his 3 kids. What a hero!
