How can a man (Mccain) face another gracious man (Obama) while being praised..
A little bit ago I saw Barack Obama's humorous speech at the Alfred E. Smith dinner and the ending remarks by Obama were remarkable in their graciousness toward McCain. (He spoke of McCain's honor and lifetime of "service" to this country and how admirable it has been).

But for the life of me, I simply can't understand how a supposed honorable man could sit there and listen to Obama saying these things knowing the kind of Robocalls he has signed off on to run against his opponent.

Disgusting.

2. That just tells you more about Obama than it does about McCain.. McCain is
a man who is driven by the sense of entitlement and by ambition... He is not an honorable man.

3. I think a great ad for Obama would be to take this ending...
and have the narrator say this his how he feels about his opponent.......

Seeing McCain bask in this man's generosity made me want to throw up...

4. I consider the McCain TV ads to to be as bad as the robocalls.
TV ad "Ambition"

"When convenient he worked with terrorist Bill Ayers. When discovered he lied."

It makes it sound like Obama was caught building bombs.

5. John McCain is the same as George W. bUsh; Ìt`s just politics`. In John`s own words...
``When it came to lying or losing, I chose to lie.`

7. Biden's take is that he thinks McCain is uncomfortable with his campaign tactics
but feel that's his only path to victory.
