Although it is obvious to everyone that his advisors went along because of the GENDER PANDER card. MCCain made and honest choice, given his values and beliefs.

I saw him in a clip saying that the only role of a VP was to attend funerals and inquire daily as to the health of the president. But secretly, he had a third role in mind for his choice....eye candy.

Ouch!

Not my beliefs...his. Kay Bailey had too many wrinkles for John.

Agreed Steve...

Never has a VP been more of puppet...er...blow up doll. lol

Their ticket is certainly full of hot air, that's for sure.

You cannot hide your words "eye candy" and "wrinkles". You invoked them. Good luck with that.

Hey hey Cindy McCain, how many face lifts have you had today?

I do not think Michelle wants you to attack the candidatesâ€™ wives, do you?

They already have....remember she's not proud and is really a 60s style radical. Give me a break. His honorable man image must be shown for what it is.....lies.

Let's try this again ...

I do not think Michelle wants you to attack the candidates' wives, do you?

I don't really give a flip about what Michelle wants. I am sick and tired of everyone on our side saying how honorable McCain is. Bullshit. I don't drink kool-aid either.

And what kind of man doesn' know his wife is illegally getting stoned for three years....probably one who is out cheating on her.

Hi again,

By Vidya Aug 29th 2008 at 3:13 pm EDT (Updated Aug 29th 2008 at 3:13 pm EDT)

Hi Terry, it comes as no surprise that a man without the moral character to keep his family together would stoop so low, does it?

Re: Hi again,

By Terry Aug 29th 2008 at 3:15 pm EDT (Updated Aug 29th 2008 at 3:15 pm EDT)

Are you talking about Steve attacking the candidates' wives?

nope

By Vidya Aug 29th 2008 at 3:19 pm EDT (Updated Aug 29th 2008 at 3:19 pm EDT)

No I am talking about what I perceive to be a lack of moral character in McCain, and I believe he is attacking McCain, and his choice of VP, which is I think, fair game.

Re: nope

By Steve Wilson Aug 29th 2008 at 3:37 pm EDT (Updated Aug 29th 2008 at 3:37 pm EDT)

We ain't got nothing to fear on the "character" issue. Ours has it...theirs doesn't. Thanks Vidya.

MIX IT UP

McCain has shaken the political landscape & Sahah an interesting pick. My guess is that McCain would pick a female but I had no idea of what female...

HEY MoB, I think Mikey had it right....Kay Bailey or Condi or some woman who had already accepted backed out at the last minute because Obama got tough with his acceptance speech and let them know, he fights to win.

Others would like to be on the winning side of history!

Re: MIX IT UP

Yes, no one is voting against history now.
