Comments on: McCain Camp Blasts Shameless Obama in Post Debate Spin http://washingtonindependent.com/8766/8766 National News in Context Sat, 28 Nov 2009 03:57:43 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Kay http://washingtonindependent.com/8766/8766/comment-page-1#comment-34090 Kay Sun, 28 Sep 2008 20:28:06 +0000 http://washingtonindependent.com/?p=8766#comment-34090 I walked away with the impression that Juan McCain is ready, willing (and might be able if elected) to continue the policies of the Bush/Cheney regime regarding war and the spread of democracy. Obama, on the other hand, wants a different approach diplomacy. Obama also wants to mend America's reputation - McCain doesn't seem to care about that. No matter how McCain did in this debate - his actions last week lead me to believe that he is not a competent individual to hold the office of President.

Here's the problem: There are so many loopholes that have been written into the tax code, oftentimes with support of Senator McCain, that we actually see our businesses pay effectively one of the lowest tax rates in the world."<br>And on McCain's temperment:<br>"John, I -- you're absolutely right that presidents have to be prudent in what they say. But, you know, coming from you, who, you know, in the past has threatened extinction for North Korea and, you know, sung songs about bombing Iran, I don't know, you know, how credible that is. " Most of the times Obama agreed with McCain, the Democrat added a but and criticized McCain.

Born losers who bully, lie and try anything with the media and the voters. America can't afford such people. Thankfully for America and the rest of the world a new day is coming in America. Senator soon to be President Barack Obama has the temperament and the mind to be an effective President. He will make a refreshing change. The best people surround themselves with first class people. Second grade people like McCain attract third grade people like Schmidt. They certainly deserve each other.<br>Best Wishes from Australia Obviously McCain employs the same quality of campaign people as did H Clinton.
