http://www.statenews.com As Nov. 4 inches closer, Republican party members said America’s youth are beginning to realize Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., is best suited to be the next president. en-us Gryphon 2.2.3b-tsn (woodward)/Foundry5 Sat, 06 Sep 2008 07:57:35 -0400 webmaster@statenews.com http://www.statenews.com/index.php/comment/view/21585 McCain is a POW and had a divorce, he doesn’t know what he is talking about and finished some navy academy and wants to send even more troops to Iraq. Obama on the other hand graduated from Columbia Univ. and Harvard Law. Sure, students will pick McCain (Bush 3). I wonder how much Hall was paid to state this.

That’s resonating with the youth.” Appearantly, this guy, like most republicans, has delusions of grandeur…resonating with the youth…that’s about the last thing McCain is doing…did you see him come out last night…he looks like he’s one night away from not waking up.

Or should I vote for a war hero, who has spent his entire career supporting the US? I want an American Hero, not an American Zero! Vote McCain!!

Way to take the exact words you heard on television last night and recite them on your own this morning. Kudos. Just like your presidential nominee, you follow the masses and find comfort in repeating history.

It’s a valid opinion and no one would lynch the writer for it. Bad journalism.

The truth is he barely made it out of Annapolis, he graduated somewhere in the last 20 cadets out of a class of well over 800. He was passed over for a command in the navy, in spite of the fact that his father and grandfather were both admirals. The judgement was clear 40 years ago as to his ability to lead anything. Yet after spending 6 years isolated in some Vietcong POW camp and the next 30 bagging a wealthy beer baron trophy wife and dumping the paralyzed mother of his children he’s now fit to lead me?!? He’s got stink lines wafting off him no matter how much the GOP tries to purfume and polish up this turd.

Thanks for making my day!!!

Take a look at their actual voting records – McCain’s AND Obama’s. John McCain’s: http://www.votesmart.org/voting_category.php?can_id=53270 Barack Obama’s; http://www.votesmart.org/voting_category.php?can_id=9490 I don’t care which side you vote for…at least be informed!!! I’m just tired of hearing people spit out things from commercials… Sat, 06 Sep 2008 07:57:35 -0400 http://www.statenews.com/index.php/comment/view/21761
