Inciteful McCain

If Sen. McCain is not careful, he could go down in history as the candidate that incited violence AFTER the election is over! He is ratcheting up the stakes with his new robocalling strategy. What does he think his radical right wing followers will do if he loses? After he's told them that there's a terrorist headed for the White House? Where will all that hate go? It's shameful what this one-time-American-hero has stooped to.

The US Consumer Market is the Most Coveted

The US consumer may currently be down.....but certainly not OUT! It's frustrating to hear "conservatives' talk about the advantages of McCain's plan to cut corporate taxes to rates that are more consistent with the European average. As if that is the key to bringing business to the United States.

This is laughable.

Just as parents will pay more to live in the best school district, corporations will pay more to do business in the US. Why do the conservatives insist on putting our markets on par with the rest of the world? Isn't it bad enough that our blue collar work force is competing directly with the lowest payed workers in the rest of the world.

We need to begin to leverage the immense strength of our market or it WILL atrophy.

Sarah Palin

I don't care how "well" she performed in the debate! This person was a small town mayor just two years ago!
