Sorry. I'm a middle-aged woman from the suburbs and I've never called anyone
a douche bag in my life.

I felt now was an appropriate time.

:blush:

he's lower than a virus.

I've been thinking about this and the direction that he's taken with his campaign. He wasn't like this until CariBOO Barbie came into his life. She started all of the baiting and the scurrilous rhetoric and I think she just swept him off his feet, by her filthy talk.

BTW...Hello from another middle aged woman from the suburbs!

:hi:

6. Hey there...us suburban moms have to stick...
...together. You never know when we'll run into a hockey mom, right? ;)

I agree, McCain's entire personality has changed since Palin entered the picture.

You just have to wonder who is really running that campaign. Everyone who knows John McCain
is saying that he's not acting like himself. Is he listening only to his advisers who are
giving really bad advice?

Take care...you betcha!

5. The real story is the poll. AOL has many right leaning members and so far, McInsane's
tactics don't seem to be much appreciated.

11. If Senate seats weren't so crucial...I'd send Collins some money.
I hope to see the day when government isn't all about fighting and we can support republican candidates who we like.
