We don't know anything about her. Obama has at least been in the national spotlight -- and vetted by the national media -- for almost two years. You can't have it both ways!"<BR/><BR/>You've got to be kidding (to the anonymous blogger paid by the Obama campaign to spin for the candidate). Sarah Palin has been subjected to more vetting by the national news media these past 4 weeks than Barack Obama has been subjected to in the past 4 years. The American public has learned about 5% of what they should know about Obama. If the truth were told, Obama wouldn't have gotten past the Iowa caucus. He's a self-dealing Chicago politician who should be prosecuted for selling his public job to help out his political cronies and line his own pockets.Gary R.

You can't have it both ways!<BR/><BR/>And just because as a child I converted to Judaism to please my Jewish step-dad doesn't mean I am still Jewish if I don't actually BELIEVE in it. You can't call a person a Christian if they are baptized as an infant but denounce the doctrines of Christianity as an adult. <BR/><BR/>I don't understand what's happened to you. I read your blog a lot last year and, as a progressive, always enjoyed your perspective. I even supported Ballard based in part on arguments you made. And we all see how that worked out. So maybe that's evidence that people shouldn't trust your perspective anymore. You seem to be all over Obama, but you should be pointing at least a fraction of your questioning and criticism on McCain. You've come up with all kinds of crazy reasons for why people shouldn't vote for Obama (which are crap). But can you come up with any reasons for why someone SHOULD vote for McCain?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-42394966790520112472008-09-23T11:26:00.000-05:002008-09-23T11:26:00.000-05:00I do not like Obama but you have got to be kidding...I do not like Obama but you have got to be kidding. He is not a Muslim and has never been one. Conspiracy type reasoning is not "irrefutable evidence." The Muslim school he attended was secular, both his father and his step father were non practicing Muslims. By all accounts Obama is a more devoutly practicing Christian then McCain. This type of hate speech about makes me want to vote for Obama. It makes me think that the McCain campaign is playing such cheap politics that they might not be able to govern honestly.jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00816297008963458506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-30616625785068841202008-09-22T16:12:00.000-05:002008-09-22T16:12:00.000-05:00Brenda, It is possible the campaign provides a lin...Brenda, It is possible the campaign provides a link for someone to fill out information if they would like to become a registered voter. It is my understanding that the person isn't registered online; rather, the person provides information to allow a campaign worker to follow up with the person to register them to vote with the appropriate forms.Gary R.
