Was it pure coincidence that the day McBush was accepting the nomination, Abramhoff was being sentenced to 4 years in federal prison?
Watching McBush last night talk about changing D.C. etc. while talking to the group of republicans cheering who did nothing but support Bush for nearly 8 years during a period of intense corruption by the republicans was quite ironic.
McBush acting like some crusader, preaching to the corrupt and the corrupt cheering.
Quite comical...

Quote from WaveStrider:
Uh-oh. I just saw something that disturbs me about voting for McCain.
Context: Ron Paul - Republican Congressman, was given a pass to the RNC but only under very tight restrictions. He had to pick it up at the door, couldn't have any guests, and had to return it when he left. So he declined to attend.
Disturbing item: Ralph Reed was interviewed by BBC. He stated that he was on the floor of the RNC watching Palin's speech. Ralph Reed is someone Jack Abramoff described in his own e-mail to another corrupt lobbyist as "a bad version of us."

"WASHINGTON - Broken and disgraced, lobbyist Jack Abramoff will spend four years in prison for his role in a corruption scandal that upended Washington politics and contributed to the Republicans' loss of Congress in 2006."
A BAD VERSION OF US!! This from a convicted felon!
Letting guys like that back near/in the White House is a no-no.
Now Dems have their share of money-grubbing, freezer-box politicos too, but the Abramoff scandal was a real biggie and it's net was pretty wide. The other players are still out there - and Reed is strutting on the RNC floor!
Not good.
