Rep Power: 59 | | Incredible speech.
I seem to remember the leftist wingnuts deriding President Bush's speech in 2004...
The one that put him up for good

Rep Power: 10 | | | I gave Palin props for her speech.
But, McCain was awful. What's up with that shit-eating grin? He looks like a senile old fool. |

Rep Power: 50 | | | He seemed confused and disorientated at times.
Like I said elsewhere, after Palin he was a ho-hum ending to the GOP's party at the VFW.

Rep Power: 12 | | | He's no orator... but the content of the speech was right as it needed to be... positive... appealing to his maverick nature... focus on the proper things.. highlighting the differences.. and a true call to bipartisan work, as he has shown a history of doing....
Not that I agreed with everything he said... but his mission and the majority of points I agree with.... hence why I will vote for him over Obama, with whom I agree with barely 1 or 2 things

Dave, I see that you are an Army vet and are voting for McCain. What do you think about the way he has voted against vets benefits and such? This is an honest question from somebody it affects, I really would like your opinion.

you know I remember reading somewhere that in the Kennedy Nixon debate those who watched it on television thought Kennedy won and those who listened on the radio thought Nixon won.
Interesting how much the visual image can shape your perception of what is being said.
abd why is this in current events? is it not pertaining to the election? I'm cornfuzzled.
