We have seen how America has embraced Sarah Palin since entering the race. How they have responded to an true Washington outsider and a real change for change.
The Dems are desperate, the Obama train pulled into a train station and really has not been able to leave since. His campaign has many Democrats worried that he is no longer able to stand up to the pressure of the campaign, they are standing by watching his campaign collapse daily.
Today we saw two interesting stories and one has to wonder, will they pull a major stunt just a few short weeks before the election?
Today Obama was on the Today show and was ripping on John McCain for bing against the AIG buyout before he supported it. “What has been clear during this entire past ten days is John McCain has not had clarity and a grasp on the situation.” But then Matt Lauer pointed out, scarcely three minutes after McCain said he opposed the AIG bailout last week, “in an interview with Meredith Vieira, Joe Biden, your running mate was asked the exact same question, ’should the federal government bailout AIG?’ And he said, ‘No, the federal government should not bailout AIG.’”
How did Obama respond, “And I think that in that situation,” Obama said, “I think Joe should have waited as well.”
Then Joe Biden ripped on his own campaign for the disgusting ad they had put out. The Delaware Senator took issue with an attack ad from his own side telling Katie Couric that the Obama hit on McCain’s ignorance of computers and technology was “terrible.” The ad paints McCain as out of touch — and all but calls him ancient — but doesn’t mention that the Arizona Senator’s war injuries actually prevent him from using computers for an extended period. Asked whether he’s disappointed with the tone of the campaign, including the ad that Couric characterized as “making fun of John McCain’s inability to use a computer,” Biden said “I thought that was terrible by the way. “I didn’t know we did it and if I had anything to do with it, we would have never done it”
Is this the end of the Obama/Biden ticket? Are they going to put someone in his place that will try and offset Sarah Palins popularity?

Well the big day is over and it looks like America has a lot of dark days ahead. While Obama continues to hang in there Hillary is still pulling the big states with the delegates. There is a still an outside chance that Obama will recover but it will take a lot of work on his part.
John McCain was invigorated with the wins last night, actually now declaring himself the front runner. I am not as negative on John as some conservatives are coming across, however, I am highly disturbed by a recent addition to his campaign. Dr. Juan Hernandez. He’s a dual citizen of the US and Mexico, was a member of Vicente Fox’s government, and is as open borders as you can get. McCain says he understands that the American people want the borders protected, but yet he does something like that.
The fear America is feeling for 2009 and beyond is depressing. The choice of a progressive conservative like McCain or a socialist like Clinton as our only choices for leadership, speaks disaster for the American family and the middle class taxpayers for four years. Its a shame that American politics has been destroyed by the corrupt two party system of BIG MONEY and SPECIAL INTEREST.

Remember last year when a woman in South Carolina asked Sen. John McCain about Clinton, calling her “the bitch.” and at the time CNN showed a video clip of the incident and strongly criticized McCain for not admonishing the woman.
Well this past weekend we had another incident, has the MSM picked this one to death? Have not heard much. In Bridgeton, Mo., Hillary Clinton addressed a town hall meeting there and was taking questions from the audience.
One elderly woman rose and was asking the Democratic candidate about a rumored economic union among the United States, Canada and Mexico . The woman said the president planned to implement the secret agreement in 2010.
Then the woman called the president “Bush the bastard.”
The Democratic crowd immediately roared its approval.
Sen. Clinton nodded her head slightly and smiled.
Lets see if the media has the same disgust for Hillarys reaction as they did for McCain.

This has got to be one of the most frustrating elections in years. On the left we have three candidates who are so busy pandering to the far left of their party that they offer nothing that the working class in middle America can identify with. They are talking more taxes, destruction of the best health care system in the world with a government run fiasco and pandering to terrorist.
Then on the right we have several candidates that are at best conservative liberals, a few who try to come across as conservative and then there is Ron Paul, where we just don’t know where he fits in.
This is going to be a tough year, we can’t allow one of the three socialist in, which leaves the question, who is the conservative candidate? Who will finally protect our borders? who will be the one to shut off the gravy train for the illegals who flow into our country? Who will be strong enough to contine standing up to terrorist.
Who is there for America? This is a question with few answers this election cycle.
