Just when I thought I've read the stupidest thing ever on ET, I am amazed yet again. Whether right or left, just please don't fall into the ignoramus trap of brain washing from either side. c

Man, what a sad case of media brainwashing. Be afraid, be very afraid. What a crock. c

This will be a pretty sad state of affairs if this politcal divide that has lined the pockets of media types who preach hatred and bullshit actually hits the streets if the other guy wins or loses. Are we really that unAmerican? Has it really gotten to that point guys? I hope not. c

It can be argued that America's policies are sockialist for the last 80 years or so. c

I just can't stand it you guys. Do any of you really believe that Obama is a Communist, a Socialist, or an AntiAmerican. Do we think we need to research every congress-person to see if they are Anti American? Have we really let the pundits pollute our minds to that degree? Do we really think...

Still interesting that Intrade shows Obama up 4 after the debate to 86, McCain down to 14.3. Oh well, only 3 weeks to go, should be interesting at least. c

Just a note to address the numbers after the debate, from Intrade of course. Obama Up 5 points to 86. McCain down 3.3 points to 14.3 Which, in all fairness is a long way from exit poll reality, just a curious result. c

A couple of things come into play when using polls and something like Intrade, especially in this election. As mentioned several times in other posts, pollsters don't use cell phone numbers when polling, and most Obama supporters/voters are likely to use cell phones primarily. I'm sure this...

Just when I thought I read the dumbest thing ever. c

More left versus right yak yak. Liberal media, Hannity is a known bias. All that is no justification for an interviewee not to be able to answer what she reads. Virtually every interviewer over the millenia has asked pretty much the same thing. A simple NY Times, Alaska Daily, WSJ, would have...

I think the Couric interviews have given warning to the handlers, and I think she's good enough to pull off a pretty good debate with Biden. It's really going to boil down to the questions, of course. I still question the choice for VP, and since the first few days of poll numbers have gone...

Very impressive. First off, yes, I agree with you. I am just impressed by your accross the aisle inclusion of both Obama and Clinton. c:)

Yes, but we come back to the same 2 basic points when speaking of majority rules. First, of course, is what if the majority voted that all non christians pay all income taxes or something equally as ridiculous. The second is the majority consisting of those more educated, as in all of history...

Nice post. I question that the Bush admin really knew anything about the price of oil, but did a pretty good job of making sure it didn't decline in price, primarily by keeping Iraq oil our of our hands as promised. The whole idea of an administration elected soley on the basis of fear just...

Oh good Lord. Let me see, spend money on the U.S. and its' citizens, infrastructure, medical aid for our citizens vs. invading a country for nothing, giving the real terrorists basically a free ride instead of chasing them down, spending a trillion on the war and rebuilding their infrastructure...

Obama reads telprompter, great speeches, ragged on by Reps for just giving good speeches. Palin reads teleprompter, attempts to energize extreme evangelical base again, and it's pure genius. Dem busted for ties to crimes, reps beat to death, reps as in Alaska busted with ties, no big deal. At...

So funny, everyone rags on Obama for giving such great speeches, saying little substance,and now the same people praise Palin for being able to read a teleprompter. Oh well, can't really expect much more these days. I think her future chances are being undermined by this attempt, but, as...

I don't like all the finger pointing and name calling here on ET. And I understand that the Dems are doing their best, as the Reps do, to come up with dirt on the other side. By fiasco, I simply mean all this that you're seeing. Whether based in fact, as some charges are, or if mere mud...

I think perhaps a better discusson point might be to compare VP candidates. The candidates themselves have already been picked. Choosing a Biden, long time Senator with tons of global experience vs. an unknown from Alaska? Whether you agree with the politics of either Obama, Biden, McCain or...

I've stayed out of this Palin discussion primarily because of the complete absurdity of it. I can suppose that she's fine, and loves God, probably the evangelical ilk, and loves kids, has a few, is anti-abortion, as I am. But, come on, don't you think she is simply put in this position because...
