    The Old dog has not only run out of old dirty tricks but has no new tricks either.

    So, there are no issues he can resolve. The only thing left is to attack some one personally.

      I'm sorry but I don't think that discussing who your possible next President has associations with is a personal attack. His associations with these people are real and public. Perhaps you need to open you eyes and do a little research if someone speaking the truth bothers you so much.

      With all due respect, I don't think that talking about who our possible next President associates with has anything to do with a personal attack. Funny, Obama can smear McCain/Palin all he wants to but when they get it back it's "OMG." Truth can be very ugly at times and sadly, Obama's truths are uglier than most. OPEN YOUR EYES!!!!!!!!!

            It's funny. Suddenly everyone is all up in a roar over McCain's attack ads, but all I've ever seen up until now is smear ads AGAINST McCain. So now that John has joined the Obama bandwagon and is throwing a little mud, suddenly it's dirty pool. I just can't believe the hypocrisy that flows out of the Democratic camps.

              personally, i haven't seen any obama "attack ads", but then i'm only in a battleground state called missouri.

                The old dirty dog has run out old as well as any new tricks. All he is left with is personal attacks on Obama.

                I will be surprised if this 72 year old scum bag who is losing his bearings comes out able to walk in a couple of weeks. Good for him to check in to a good nursing home.

                      Please get an education. It's you ignorance that's gonna bring us down. Oh, and if you're so sure of the prophetic message you're apparently getting, then encourage the rest of you zealots to vote for Barack so that the scriptures might be fulfilled. I suggest you do more reading concerning the Pharisees - sums most of you up to a tee.

                        please go bang your bible elsewhere. i'm fed up with people insisting on electing candidates and establishing public policies based on their interpretation of the bible.

                        get over yourself, in the us, there is separation between church and state.

                        I think bloggers are full of selective retardation. Obama is a scary man who listens and associates with even scarier people. He didn't know that his mentor, the man whom his book is named for and one of his closest friends HATES America... HATES whites and Jews and embraces radical Muslims under some strange banner of Christianity. Is he stupid? Hmmm clearly not with his impressive IQ that's been touted all over the liberal media. Is he that poor of a judge of character-I mean this man was like a father to him- could he just have not notice? I doubt it. And if so, I certainly don't want someone that oblivious making "new" friends in office. My guess that Osama-I mean, Obama is l y i n g! He knows exactly who he's shaking hands with and who he's bedding with.
                        Regardless of party lines, or conservatism vs. liberalism at least in every other election the American people were choosing an American president.
                        The Muslim nations absolutely HATE America and we are about to elect one of their followers as our leader.
                        good thing Obama's getting all those prison votes tallied too. If we are that pathetically blind as a people we deserve to have our democracy decimated and be ruled by someone who HATES us from the constitution up. And luckily then Michelle can be proud to be an American fro the second time.

                          you sound like you're coming unglued! investments not doing too well? kid in iraq? lots to worry about out there, but electing obama is not one of them.

                          take a breath, you're hyper-ventilating.

                          Once again, Obama correct on all fronts. The McCain campaign continues to show that they know Obama to be far more intelligent and mature than McCain and Palin together. What other reasons can be given for a smear campaign? There's no other way to justify it.

                          The American people want questions pertaining to the economy, health care and our abilities to withstand this economic downslide answered, not deflected, as Palin did in the debate against Biden - "Can I tell you about what I heard about Barack?" Enough, already. There you "Mavericks" go, again - looking dumb, acting dumb, preaching doom and gloom. So what's changed? And nothing will. As long as you continue to feed the ignorant that upon which they feed, gossip, divisive talk, us vs them, we'll continue to never make progress and won't be able to attend to the important needs of this country and our world.

                            The Ayers connection with Obama is just stupid. The arguement is that if someone puts you on a board with another person that person is your associate. Obama blew the smear away in the debate and anyone still spouting this lie is no patriot. What about the McCain Transition chief who lobbied for Sadam in trying to lift the sanctions? Does that mean McCain hires terrorists? McCain has made a choice to bring that man into the campaign and advise his administration if elected.
