All I saw was a blog with various opinions, the first ones seemed to be dissing Obama. I didn't bother reading the whole blog. If there was something there you thought was worth reading maybe you should have c+p'd it?

It says I don't have the latest flash player but I can never download the right one. You were trying to give a link directly to the video? There is a way to do it that always works. I don't recall the code for it. This is why I avoid U-tube.

Dunno, man. Vid is called "The Real John McCain 2"--perhaps a Google search will find it for you in an agreeable form. Worth a couple of minutes of your searching, maybe.

On edit: try the website http://therealmccain.com/ (http://therealmccain.com/)
hope it works!  :twisted:

The problem isn't finding the video, it's making it play. I'm sure the problem is on my end. There is code that will make it play for anyone. Just pasting the url from your browser doesn't work.

The election is turning into the usual lesser of the evils. Obama seems like a good choice but he is being pressured into picking Hill as vp. That would be a disaster and would lose my vote among many others and would guarantee a Mccain victory. A repub vp might be a wise choice. The hard line demos might hate it but they will not vote Mccain no matter what. They may sit out, a few of them.

The battle is for the mainstream voter, not for the hard core demos. Repubs will vote Mccain or sit out. Demos will do the same for Obama. Mr and Ms mainstream will decide. Obama has to present himself as not just another extreme left winger but as someone who can reach out to all sides. A conservative or at least a moderate with conservative leanings would go a long ways toward doing that. Not someone he has major differences with but someone the non-extreme right of center voter can cotton to.

Mccain has repackaged himself as a moderate. Obama must do the same or pay the price.

well, being born in Panama should exclude him automatically from becoming president.  What do you think?  Only natively born Americans can be President.

Panama being a us possession at the time may be an exception to the rules. I'm not sure if that will be an issue or not.
