Win a Chance to Watch Charlie Black Lobby from the McCain Bus
Posted by Matt Ortega on March 25, 2008 at 03:06 PM
John McCain sent an e-mail message to supporters offering a chance to ride the "Straight Talk Express" with the Arizona senator -- a spot typically reserved for lobbyists.
My campaign has come up with an opportunity for a supporter to join me on the Straight Talk Express for a day of conversation and campaigning. As a token of my appreciation for your financial support, you will be entered to win this seat aboard the Straight Talk Express if you make a contribution before midnight on March 31st. I hope you'll consider joining me by making a donation today. If you can give $50 or more, not only will you be entered to win a ride on the Straight Talk Express, but you'll receive a commemorative Straight Talk Express ticket.
Ride along with John McCain and watch as top adviser and lobbyist Charlie Black lobbies for foreign governments and corporate interests on the road!
A quick observation: I guess the "No Surrender Express" was good enough to woo Republican faithful but not cheery enough for the general election that they gave up on it.

You might as well call it the "Orient Express" because that's where the Republicans have sent all our jobs, corporate profits, and infrastructure improvements.
Warren Buffet should highjack the bus, drive it back to Washington, and dump the whole lot of McCain's lobbyist friends in the K Street gutter...with the rest of our economy.

Nope, the real name of that bus is "Road to the Bottom" because that is where this country will be if McCain is elected President. McCain will continue the same failed policies of the village idiot from Crawford Texas. Dems, we need to get our act together and prevent old senile McCain from ever becoming President. Let's just dump McCain and his buddies somewhere else such as Iraq or someplace they can't do anymore harm.

I know the elders of the party are nervous about the bickering. They have seen the worst of times, imagine being in the house or senate under Delay or Hassart. They are witnessing the biggest primary turnout in decades and they do not want to see it ruined. Have faith, even though we are each pulling for our side hard, we will vote for the nominee,(as long as no rules are changed in the middle of the game.) Even if we think the rules are weird, we still will abide by the rules because it gives order and justification. Because, like one white male Hillary supporter said, on the Bill Maher Show last night, "I'd vote for anyone they could drag off the street rather than go thru 4 more years of this." His wife was an Obama supporter.

Sorry, I meant Frist in the senate. Look how far we have come since 2000 - Frist, Delay, Hassart, Gonzolaz, Rumsfield, Libby, Brownie, Allen, Santorum, Burns, Foley, Lott, (the guy Clair McCaskel beat was it Trenton, Jeb, Rove, Haggart gone. Soon to be gone - warner, Hagel, who have I missed?

Mike Dewine for one who is now helping McCain set up his base here in my state. Kenneth Blackwell who was reponsible for Bush's re-election. We need to do whatever to prevent McCain from being the next President of this country.

One thing we can do is not reward huge corporations for their own mistakes. If the democrats in congress vote to bail out the construction industry, I will not vote in november. Because, in essence I would be voting for republicans because there would be no difference. The bear sterns deal, vote it down. Did the Dems promise that deal or was it bush. He's got the money, let him pay for it. You are in control of congress start acting like it and be a democrat. Corporate wellfare for the multimillionaires at the expense of the working people is not democratic. You as a party, will not be able to say, they are for the rich, multinational Corp.s, but we are for you. You will blow it. Howard get on this one, this is bigger than any fighing between the parties, this is our reputation. Besides all of the construction companies hired illegals at 3.00 an hour and charged typical americans as if it were built by a u.s. taxpaying citizen. They made huge money, this makes me sick to my stomach.
