POLITICS: OBAMA USES PALIN AGAINST MCCAIN / MCCAIN USES BIDEN AGAINST OBAMA

On Monday, Barack Obama told Florida voters that the negativity of the campaign has gotten so bad, even Sarah Palin feels the same.

Palin told reporters Sunday that if she were in charge of the campaign, there would be more time spent with voters and less on “the conventional ways of campaigning that includes those robo-calls”.

Monday was the first day Floridians could vote early, and Obama urged them to do so.

“I want everybody after this rally, if you have not already voted I want you to go vote. Don’t wait until November 4th you don’t know what might happen on Nov 4th. Your car might break down, you might have an emergency, the alarm might not go off and you don’t get to work on time. So take the advantage of early vote.”

MCCAIN USES BIDEN AGAINST OBAMA

At a rally Monday in Belton, Missouri, John McCain reiterated Joe Biden’s prediction that Barack Obama would be tested in office.

He guaranteed that if Senator Obama is elected, Senator Biden said, we will have an international crisis to test America’s new president. We don’t want a president who invites testing from the world at a time when our economy is in crisis and Americans are already fighting in two wars.”

On Sunday, Biden said that within Obama’s first months in office, “we’re going to have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy”. He added that it may not be immediately “apparent” that the administration’s actions were the right ones.

“Forget ‘apparent’,” McCain said.

“Senator Obama won’t have the right response, and we know that because we’ve seen the wrong response from him over and over during this campaign.

“He opposed the surge strategy that is bringing us victory in Iraq and will bring us victory in Afghanistan. He said he would sit down unconditionally with the world’s worst dictators. When Russia invaded Georgia, Sen. Obama said the invaded country should show restraint.”

    OBAMA 08

  2. Chris

    That’s so true what Obama said; he should of also thrown in that they may be in a horrific car crash leaving them paralyzed, and not being able to vote for him.

    What is this victory that this ill man McCain talks about? What do we win in Iraq and Afghanistan? Please educate me somebody, because I’m just sooo confused.

  3. MISSBDAY

    I feel that the negative energy surrounding the campaigns and the other issues
    are very bad for both candidates. Obama 08.

  4. elle

    OBAMA ’08 AND ’12!

  5. Meat

    —–Pray for Obama’s grandmother, Madelyn Dunham.

    —–Sarah Palin going against John McCain? A house divided against itself will fall.

  6. UrbanChic

    *****Meat, you know what, McCain picked Palin for the wrong reasons. Notice how
    *****everytime something occurs, somehow he has to always defend her. If it doesn’t
    *****start right, it won’t end right.

  7. kellz

    I think that its so ridiculous that Mccain can’t face the fact that OBAMA is an intelligent man and that he’s goin to be our next president..they’ve tried everything so far I wonder wats next
    Good lord,
    OBAMA 08-12

  8. Tasha

    T McCain should really listen to Obama’s strategies on handling this condemned country we have on our hands. I think Obama’s taking his time in making the RIGHT decisions, approach to handle difficult situations etc will benefit all of us. Not one who has a hot head, one who is irrational etc.

    Also on another note, did anyone hear about McCain sending a letter to Russia asking for money towards his campaign? I guess he forgot he doesn’t even like Russia not to mention it is against the law to do what he has done. McCain quickly said “oops, sent it to the wrong person”! However, had that been Obama trying to get money from Foreign nationals from anywhere they’d find some way to link him to terrorist. People please get out there and vote.

    Here you can find the link on the letter sent to Russia!

  11. dukesman2000

    This election season is so charged, some for the right reasons and some for the wrong reasons. I often tell people quit these Obama assassination talks, because McCain or Palin isn’t safe either.

  12. Nichole

    McLame needs to sit his old geezer ass down. He’s not winning this election, no matter how desperate he gets.

  13. Ms Ke

    I was there to see Obama! Great speech. What Pailn said was more damaging then what Biden said. Yes, the next president will be tested. And I know that Barack can can handle it!

  14. Arron Bright

    Thanks for the update McCain….

  19. Nothing But Love

    This election is making me so nervous…

  20. Anartist

    Obama is a great speaker, and I too would like to know what “victories” McCain is referring too, last time I checked Iraq is still a mess and has cost over $10billion a month (That’s not even an exaggeration: http://www.washingtonpost...3/07/AR2008030702846.html) and for what?…

    The Difference Between Barack/Michelle/Biden & McCain/Cindy/Palin you ask?

    If a black candidate left their wife dying of cancer to marry a drug addict 33 years younger than him, he would not be of good “character” to Amercan voters.

    If a black female or male attempted to hide a Pregnacy for 8 months until it “leaked” out, yet parade their special needs child for Americans to exploit, would not be of good “character” but of someone who may or may not have missed an adoption opportunity. (Hey, if an Ayers can be theorized, why not this!)

    If a black man claims his first marriage he was out of touch and in his second marriage could not tell that his own wife was zooted off drugs most of the time, would not be someone Americans would consider…”of good judgment”, in matters of the people and in the economy. (McCain is experienced in Torture and he practices this most at home!)

    If a black female had 5 kids (2 of whom throw the middle finger at each other on camera!), a teenage pregnate daughter and a shotgun wedding to arrange in between her Panther rallies, she would not be considered flexible or unbiased enough to run our country. (I can’t wait to call my homegirl and tell her to re-dream herself to the highest office!)

    It’s scary to think the Fox News and all the other conservative media expect to convince people over 5 years old that Tina Fey and ACORN won the election for Obama. They are comical! Bottom line is that I can’t wait for the people of America to silence Fox News and I only watch them to see their reaction to McCain and his GILF’s constant and consistent LOSS anyway. I will remember what media to support when Obama is elected and Fox will not be one of them!

    Remember that Obama will need us more than ever 4 years from now so keep your vote alive! They are going to try to win every republican vote back by attacking his character and how he won this election. They are already rigging machines to break, arresting minorities on more warrants than usual, and watch drinking and driving near vote day, you are guaranteed not to be out in time! Head this warning. You will have four years to decide if I was right.

  22. jewell

    where’s my post? I don’t beleive I broke any rules and exercised decent freedom of speech. Please explain.

  23. d from texas

    I voted yesterday Barack and I am going back to the polls with a car load of friends and family. I am praying that your grand mother recovers and gets a chance to witness all her hard work when your nominated.

  24. Huemanity

    It’s so funny that the GOP is trying to scare Americans by labeling Obama as the most liberal, taxing Senator.

    There is NO WAY he will get his tax increases passed by Congress with the economy the way it is. Even with a Democratic majority, he won’t get it. Those moderates know their constituents will vote them out REAL QUICK. The dems will lose their majority in 2010 anyway, because the American public will see that they are no better than the Republicans, just different.

    The only reason I want Obama to win is because he is BLACK. But he is far too liberal for my tastes. But yes, his blackness and the historical nature of his candidacy trumps abortion and taxes for me. At least right now.

  25. Cyn

    Dag i’ll be glad when all this is over week after next. It’s really starting to stress me out.

  26. SASSYDANCER

    OBAMA WAS JUST PUTTIN IT DOWN THE WAY HE SHOULD ABOUT THE GOOF-NAMIC DUO!!!!(PLAIN AND McCAIN).

    VOTE BEFORE NOV 4TH IF YOU CAN…..
    IF NOT THEN VOTE ON NOV 4TH.

    HOPE YOUR GRANDMA GETS WELL PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY, OBAMA!!!!

  27. FranCisco Vegas

    after reviewing all the text and talk that is combined with the coverage of this years elections it has concerned about our future for the younger generations and i know that if i am at this age already really worried about how our country will be able to overcome the really bad decissions that have been made i think that obama will bring about a great change for this country and if he doesnt win… i am leaving forever!!
    lol !!

  28. Q.B.

    I just can’t for these next 2 weeks to be over with. McCain’s camp is so desperate right now they’re doing everything they can to destroy Obama’s character. Its just pathetic to me, McCain had every opportunity to make this election seem close,but by him creating all this negative energy in his whole campaign, and not talking about the issues specifically, and waiting to distant himself from Bush is a little bit to late. By what the polls are saying Obama is leading into double-digits.

  29. Mike J.

    Obama/Biden ’08 & ’12 – GET OUT AND VOTE, DON’T TALK ABOUT IT BE ABOUT IT!!!

  30. tiny_t_sigh

    These comments are so typical.

    At this point I’m just ready for Nov 4th. I’m tired of the bickering, from both parties, I’m tired of the constant hate that’s being promoted by Obama-supporters. I’m just sick of it all.

    Those that support Mccain, support him because in their opinion, he is the better man for the job. He has a record of bi-partisan, has gone against Bush numerous times in the past, for the haters look it up, and he has suffered the costs of what it takes to protect our country, i.e. POW. It doesn’t get any more American than that.

    Despite what a lot of blacks don’t understand, Mccain supporters, believe that he has traditional values & morals, and will do whatever it takes to uphold these virtues while President. IMO, this is an admirable quality alone.

    If Barack gets into office, well…I’ll be praying and hoping for the best. Especially since his VP seems to think that a terrorist attack is immenent and that Obama will need the American people’s help in solving those crisises. I guess this must be what his supporters mean when they say his “experience” is irrelavent. SMDH.

    God help us all.

  31. tiny_t_sigh

    What do you folks mean by “vote early”? Do votes prior to Nov 4th even count?

    This is getting ridiculous.

  32. MANDY

    “What do you folks mean by “vote early”? Do votes prior to Nov 4th even count? ”

    @ Jessica & Mandy

    Am I not allowed to have an opinion? Just like you don’t agree, or like my opinion, well guess what—-you don’t have to read it.

  39. Mel

    #31 read between the lines, he will be tested by his own americans. There will be crazy people who will try to attack him literally. If this man can fight against all that is hidden and there is alot that is hidden in america, than pray for him and applaud him.

    As far as your so santified John McCain and his so called values he has been married twice and has done some shaddy things to both his wives so how do you believe is has good values and morals. I believe in actions and not talk, and his actions show that he is not an honorable man.

  40. judasgoat

    there is a definite blacklash going on w/ my white bro and sisters on the republican side. they do look at you and roll their eyes or i have caught them looking at me w/ a glare. so i just look back. then they catch themselves and give a fake a## smile. i just say oh well, basically they can do want they want, as long as they don’t put their hands on you.
