POLITICS: VOTERS MOVE TOWARD OBAMA / MCCAIN’S ‘WILLFUL IGNORANCE’ / PALIN’S SHOPPING SPREE

Thursday, October 23, 2008

83393037.jpg
Barack Obama greeting a young supporter in Chantilly, Virgina on Wednesday afternoon.

The latest Pew Research Center findings show religious voters are gradually gravitating to Barack Obama as their pick for president. Obama is also leading McCain 51-42 in the latest Gallup poll which tracks the percentage of registered voters who say they would support each candidate if the presidential election were held today.

With a few states already voting early and the U.S. presidential election occurring in less than two weeks, look out for Concrete Loop’s upcoming Voting Etiquette Guide.

MCCAIN’S ‘WILLFUL IGNORANCE’

On Tuesday, Barack Obama said that John McCain offers little more than “willful ignorance, wishful thinking, outdated ideology” to the economic crisis.

While President Bush and Sen. McCain were ready to move heaven and earth to address the crisis on Wall Street, the president has failed so far to address the crisis on Main Street, and Sen. McCain has failed to fully acknowledge it,” Obama said at a jobs summit in Florida.

Obama said that McCain’s to the economic crisis doesn’t offer enough to those worried about their jobs, homes and lifestyles:

“Instead of commonsense solutions, month after month, they’ve offered little more than willful ignorance, wishful thinking, outdated ideology.”

PALIN’S SHOPPING SPREE

According to Politico, the Republican National Committee has spent more than $150,000 to clothe and accessorize Sarah Palin and her family since John McCain picked her in August.

The McCain-Palin campaign released a statement: “With all of the important issues facing the country right now, it’s remarkable that we’re spending time talking about pantsuits and blouses. It was always the intent that the clothing go to a charitable purpose after the campaign,” said McCain-Palin spokesperson Tracey Schmitt.

What’s ‘remarkable’ is how stupid this is, especially during a financial crisis, writes Marc Ambinder.

It wasn’t too long ago that John Edwards caught grief for his $400 haircut, but it would have taken him over seven years of getting one of those haircuts to spend what Palin has spent.

Perhaps Palin should put the shopping sprees on hold and find out what it is that the vice president actually does.

If Palin was a man would they have spent that amount of money on campaign suits? I’m leaning towards no, this further proves the superficial reason as to why she was picked to be VP.

Looks like the real sexists are in the republican party.

Perhaps it would be in the best interest of the Republican party to realize that they have made a fool of a choice for President and VP. WE have all this crisis going on in the Us and they can spend over 150K for sara palin wardrobe. Might I add that I have not seen anything yet that she wears that is so impressing. Then to add insult to injury they say oh ” we are gonna donate the clothes to charity” Please!!!!! Obama/Biden 08!

BUT, have you seen the McCain campaign’s latest flyer with “Terrorist” on the front and a picture of BO on the inside? McCain says he’s “absolutely proud” of the new flyer. There are no words to describe - why are they (the Republican’s) trying to insite fear and hatred to win a campaign? Oh my bad, that’s the same thing Bush did a few years ago… McCain is trying to make this campaign about race, because he can’t stand on the issues.

And I’m sure the RNC feels that the discussion of spending $150K on Palin and her family is “petty in light of today’s economic crisis.” It was also “petty” for Cindy McCain to spend 27K on 1 outfit for 1 appearance. It’s petty that the McCain’s own 6 homes; it’s petty that McCain left his first wife to marry his jump-off.

Yeah, all of that “petty” stuff says a lot about McCain and Palin’s core values.

It’s very interesting to me to see how Sarah Palin prides herself in being an “outsider, a reformer” and yet she seems to be doing everything that she can (or at least the McCain-Palin campaign is) to make her more “mainstream”.

I watched a bit of the interview that Palin and McCain did with Brian Williams and he flat out asked what is her definition of “pre-conditions” and she still hasn’t answered it yet. I find it hard to believe that the campaign have yet to brief her on “her” attacks on the Obama Biden ticket. She doesn’t even know what a vice president does, and yet she has more executive experience than Obama! Come on people

It amazes me just how much the media is trying hard not to come accross as sexist, or harder on her because she’s a republican, but don’t we need to be hard on the people running for two of the highest positions in the country and ultimately the world? If she is this ill prepared for interviews with the media asking her straight forward questions, what are we to think about her capability and competence to hold the highest position, if it were to come down to it?

Also watching that interview I noticed how tense McCain and Palin were. She seemed as if though she was seeking approval from him or help from him on just about every question. It seems to me that McCain is trying to convince himself that he made the right decision every time he speaks of her “qualifications”….

At the end of the day I just want people to get out there and VOTE!
No matter who your voting for people it is important to exercise your right!

Personally, I don’t trust ANYTHING out here that has to do with the Government. So I know it looks good for Obama, but people better be prepared for the worst. Because unfortunately, we aint running nothing in this country as much as we think we are. I’ve known that, but through everything going on - it’s being confirmed. Billions of dollars being spent on a war - half the country doesn’t want. Billions of dollars be giving to Fat Cats - half the country doesn’t want. Who EXACTLY is giving the OK on all these BS things - it aint us. So actually we don’t have say in SHIT that happens in this country and we won’t have say in who gets elected either. If they want to rig the election - who is going to know. The few that run the country run EVERYTHING in it, too. I’m keeping it positive in my heart - but I’m serious preparing for the worst. You think Black people are slick and I say you aint seen the likes of slick YET. How many times has the government lied to the millions and gotten away with it? As long as they keep the streets clean on top of the hill - white people will let them get away with anything because they never have to suffer despite their actions. But let them suffer and then laws, etc. EVERYTHING gets changed.

That pic is so cute……….Early Voting in Florida started on Monday……..we are breaking records and supporting Obama like its no tomorrow. Wait time have been reported to be as long as 3 hours at some sites. But everyone has had a great attitude and no one is complaining about the wait instead being proud to make the difference that can brighten up the future for all people.

I wonder what the Clinton campaign spent on her wardrobe/pantsuits. Because if spending $150K still leaves you looking like a hooker in short skits and go go boots, dressing with class must cost at least twice that amount. Wouldn’t you say?

“But everyone has had a great attitude and no one is complaining”

@NINAGIRL1
My husband and I noticed that too. We were so proud to see that more than half of the over 400 there were black. They were all so friendly and more than a few people greeted us with “brother” and “sister”. Why cant we be like this towards each other all the time? I wont complain though. I will take it when I can get it.

I voted for “that one”.

The saddest part about the $150K shopping spree is the excuse that “she needed clothes”and that the clothes will go to charity…Palin and her trashtastic family is the charity…The wardrobe is worth more than she makes in a year…pure foolishness on behalf of the Republican ticket…Putting trash in a pretty package, and still having the audacity to justify it! Send the b*tch to Wal-Mart…thats what she should be accustomed to!

Let’s be honest people…a lot of us are voting for Obama because he is black and I feel like if that is what gets you to vote OH WELL! But let’s be clear, Palin is a pawn and unfortunately we are taking are frustrations out on her. We know that McCain chose Palin because he wanted the Angry White Women vote let over from Clinton. Had Hillary won the nomination, the Republican VP would probably be black for the Angry Black People Vote. McCain is smart and so is the Republican Party. They seen an opening and took it by using the whitest women in the American to face off against the big black mean man. They want the women to empathize with her because she is a mom and the men to feel like they have to protect “lily” like they did in the ’50’s and ’60’s. The $150,000 would have been used on a man if he was a Hill-Billy like Palin. You can’t be in the White House in Flannel carrying a moose gut pouch holding a hunting rifle. And on a side not…I seen Palin on SNL and she was great. If she wasn’t so “backwater” and a staunch Republican, we could be friends!

**I get why people are upset about the hyprocracy shown by Sarah’s spending on the wardrobe but I’ve been checking out the blogs on CNN.com and FOXNews.com (even though fox would still support Sarah Palin if she came out in KKK robe) but most of them don’t seem to mind paying for it. I guess those hockey moms shop at Nieman Marcus too. Now I dont know how Alaskans feel about her charging them to fly her kids around and put them up in hotel suites. I’d be pissed but since I’m not voting for that ticket, I could care less. Just another reason they’re going to lose!!

**Obama just got done speaking here in Nap, IN. and I got motivated to go vote early but the lines are already 2 hours long!! don’t forget to NOT WEAR ANY PRESIDENTIAL PARAPHANALIA SO YOU WON’T GET TURNED AWAY!!!

Damn country going into a recession and these GOP fools went and spent $150 G’s of donated monies in less than 2 months for a freaking red leather jacket, etc??? She does not know the job of a V.P., doesn’t know what magazines she reads, doesn’t know that there is no such thing as a city being “More Pro-American” than other cities….Everything General Powell said on Sunday was right on point when it came to McCain’s judgement on picking Palin as V.P. Hell, I would not pick her to speak to my son’s pre-school class…

I am about to bust my side from some of these comments! Yall are too doggone funny!

I agree with the posts that state that McCain is now upset that he selected Palin because she is more of a liability to the GOP and they did not bargain for this. Yea, the $150K clothing bill does not make for “good press” but hell, they’ll still find a way to justify it.

Have you all heard of those states where the polls are switching Obama votes to McCain? People, please pay close attention to your polling machine when you are casting your vote. Also, if you have moved since the last election, you will be required to complete a “statement of residence” card. You will need to fill it out and hand it in before or after you cast your ballot. Hand it to one of the polling volunteers. If you leave with this card, your vote WILL NOT be counted!

I voted early and had to turn around and return to the polls because the older “white” volunteer would not accept my card. So, I gave it to a “black” volunteer.

Yall be careful because we don’t want to be hoodwinked or bamboozled this time around! OBAMA 2008 baby!

I don’t care how much they spend on her she still looks like a plain Jane. When this is over maybe she can get a makeover. She is a fool and McCain threw away his campaign once he selected her as his running mate. Just to hear her talk makes me so mad (No one speaks proper English in Alaska). She is a mess…..Their campaign was to smear Obama’s name and what he believes in for this country, but everytime it backfires.

Shelly B - Obviously there is alot of excitement surrounding the prospect of a black president. But is it too hard to believe that he’s just the better candidate? Why can’t we be voting for the better candidate who happens to be black? What’s the alternative? McCain? who doesn’t appear to give a rats about the low/middle class. It’s clear that Obama has our interests at heart regardless of his race.

Sarah Failin doesn’t even know what a VP does huh? I am not surprised. Anyway, I voted early and it took me about an hour. I urge everyone to go ahead and VOTE EARLY because if the lines are this long now, you can imagine what they’ll be on November 4th. If you do decide to vote early and happen to be in a long line, don’t get discouraged and put it off for another day… follow through. The lines move at a steady pace. O and I must say that I felt a bit of relief after voting. This election has gotten to me but after voting I felt a whole lot better.

I’m sure 70% of the money is spent on her but they also dress her husband and kids.

I’m not saying this because I am a McCain supporter but to be straight out honest. Michelle resembles and African cat/Monkey and Sarah has a very pretty face. Some people don’t take great photos and I’ve seen Palin and real life and she is absolutely stunnning.

Dont’ just vote because it’s your right vote because you are an informed voter… you know how many senators there are for each state…what your Congressman’s role is and because you know how the system and governing works and how it trickles down. The affect and effect of your pulling that lever…….

SARAH PALIN SEEMS SO CLUELESS WHEN SHE’S ASKED QUESTIONS THATS HE SHOULD BE ABLE TO ANSWER.THIS IS THE MOST IGNORANT SHYT I HAVE SEEN IN A WHILE. AND IT’S NOT THE CLOTHES IT’S THE FACT THAT PEOPLE ARE OUT HERE STRUGGLING TO HOLD ON TO JOBS AND THEIR HOMES, PEOPLE CAN’T AFFORD TO PAY THEIR BILLS, AND THEIR LIFE IS CRUMBLING AROUND THEM, AND THEY WASTE MONEY LIKE THAT LIKE IT MEANS NOTHING. YEAH OBAMA IS BLACK, BUT SO WHAT JUST FORGET THAT FOR A SECOND AND THINK ABOUT WHERE HE STANDS ON IMPORTANT ISSUES AND WHAT HIS GOALS ARE FOR THE COUNTRY. HE IS RISKING HIS LIFE LITERALLY JUST TO MAKE A BETTER PLACE FOR ALL PEOPLE. SO I THINK PEOPLE SHOULD REALLY, REALLY LOOK INTO WHATS GOING ON. PUT YOURSELF IN SOMEONES SHOES FOR A SECOND AND IMAGINE WALKING OUTSIDE AND YOU CAR HAS BEEN REPOSSED OR GOING TO WORK AND FINDING OUT YOUR DEPARTMENT IS BEING LAID OFF, OR GETTING A LETTER IN THE MAIL THAT YOUR MORTGAGE IS GOING FROM $760-$1200 BECAUSE OF TAXES AND YOU GOT A BAD MORTGAGE LOAN. SO PLEASE PEOPLE, THINK BEFORE YOU SPEAK. AND PLEASE, PLEASE VOTE. WE NEED A CHANGE, THE LAST 8 YEARS HAVE BEEN HELL ON EARTH! THINK ABOUT HOW MANY PEOPLE DIED IN SEPTEMBER 11TH AND IN IRAQ ALL THESE YEARS. IT’S TIME FOR A NEW CHANGE, AND IF OBAMA WAS WHITE, ASAIN, MEXICAN OR WHATEVER HE WOULD STILL GET MY VOTE…

You are nothing but a stupid, dumb ass negro (I dont give a damn if your ass isnt black either). The fact is my pinkey toe would make a better vice president than Sarah Palin. Michelle is much classier, respectable and even a better mom. You voting for McCain shows just how stupid you really are and Im sure you are proud of that. I hope you know ol’ white boy is the great granchild of former slave owners. That’s right, you just sh*tted all over the great ancestors who were beaten and whipped like animals ( an animal in which you described Michelle as). You and McCain both need to walk to the nearest tree, tie a rope around your necks and kill yourselves. Between his old pasty ass and your ignorant ass, you both make me sick. Both of you are nothing but a waste of space on this cold, detoriating ass Earth.

If you’re gonna pride yourself on being a “maverick” and a “reformer” on spending, it might be a good idea to NOT get caught with a 150 k wardrobe Palin. This is why I dont believe a word that comes out of that campaign’s mouth. The game of politics is really something else. I dont want this woman anywhere near the white house. And #56, You have every right to vote for who you wanna vote for, I just hope you voted for McCain based on his policies and not because of your issues with black women. Pathetic. And did anyone catch that special they had on Fox News where they linked Obama to socialists he supposedly “studied” and has ties with. Surprising behavior of Fox news, right? lol. I wonder when they are gonna air the special about the secret societies the Bush’s belong to and the terrorists they have ties with. hmmmmmmmm.

Wow,

I hope all of you voted.
First 150k is not a lot to spend in these terms. I understand that this is a first for some of yall and you dont understand, but this is not uncommon male or female.
Now what I do find distasteful is the how much Obama and McCain have spent on air time. It hurt the common man. I bet you guys didn’t know that during election the FCC requires stations to gives equal time to everyone running. They also require the station to give the lowest price for air time. How does this hurt the common man. I’ll tell you. The station jacks up the rate for are time. some of the rates are impossible for the average store owner to afford. over 30 mill in advertising ( most of that on Obama’s side) and that does not include money from special groups that pay at the higher rate. I’m sure they could have gotten the word out better for less. But hey lets keep talk about that 150K.

I find it funny that states with Republicans in most if not all offices at the state level are doing way better than state who do not. I dont think it has anything to do with parties just the fact that we took the time to vote in local elections. Newflash if your local gvernment is jacked up there is nothing the president can do.

Yall kill me with the “Obama Said” that like “McCain said ” or “My Mamma Said”

Why do people care about what she is wearing anyway ( I know the answer I just think its silly) People we are voting for the President of the United States, not the First lady of the United States, or what so people fell to believe the Vice President of The United States.

What’s even more funny is the fact that you guys are calling each other names and getting all upset. When the truth of the matter is that all these people are friends ( with the exception of Palin ) NOT that much is going to change. Mark my words. Their will still be war in Iraq, poverty, racism, and rich people will still be rich, some people will advance ( as is the case today), and there we will be people no matter how much help you give them will still insist on say the government is not doinf enough.

One more thing. As the President you have to “care ” about everybody. That means folks with money. If anyone knows with proof what Obama intends to offer to the wealthy to encorauge them to keep their money here in the state please inform me. I swear if Oprah builds one more thing over seas because she feels Americans dont deserve her help. I’m start a peition

___________@JA. THE REASON PEOPLE CARE ABOUT WHAT SHE IS WEARING IS BECAUSE WHEN YOU’RE TRYING TO BE A LEADER YOU HAVE TO SET EXAMPLES AND BE A ROLE MODEL. SHE HAS A TEENAGE DAUGHTER WHO IS PREGNANT, AND THATS PROBALY BECAUSE SHE DOESN’T WANNA TALK ABOUT SEX EDUCATION IN HER SCHOOLS, AND A YOUNG DAUGHTER THAT WAS PHOTOGRAPHED GIVING SOMEONE THE FINGER. IF THE SHOE WAS ON THE OTHER FOOT PEOPLE WOUD GIVE OBAMA HELL FOR THE SAME THINGS. YA’LL PEOPLE ARE KILLING ME. AND PLEASE, PLEASE LEARN SOME BETTER GRAMMER. YOU MEAN TO SAY “FAIL” NOT FELL . PEOPLE HAVE THE RIGHT TO THEIR OWN OPINION BUT SOMETHINGS SAID ARE JUST PLAIN IGNORANT, PERIOD. 150K ISNT THAT MUCH YOURE RIGHT, BUT AT A TIME LIKE THIS IT IS. REGARDLESS, IF THEY HAD TO DO THAT MUCH MAKING OVER FOR HER THEN SHE SHOULDN’T HAVE BEEN CHOSEN IN THE FIRST PLACE. SO MANY PEOPLE IN ALASKA HAVE BEEN SAYING THEY WILL NEVER VOTE FOR HER AGAIN, AND THATS HER STATE. SO SAD…
