Mccain continues to try to tie Obama to lobbyists, crooked CEOs, and everything else under the sun. But it continues to fail, just like he will.

Absolutely \“real howlers\”. Who is advising this guy? Absolute goofiness. Even friends like Letterman are wondering what\‘s going on.

We have third parties — my favorite policy-wise is the Green. But the Green Party botched it big time when it ran Nader for president, took votes from Gore, and let the walking disaster, Bush II, sneak in. I think the Green Party should forget national races, and run candidates for city council and school board, where they could win and gain strength. But there is a quick-fix for third parties in national and state races — instant runoff voting, where you would vote for your third party candidate as first choice and a main party candidate as second choice. As I understand it, if no candidate had a clear majority, and your candidate was not in the top two, your second choice vote would be applied. So you wouldn’t be “throwing away your vote” by voting for the third party candidate. Australia has a “winner take all” system like the U.S.A., but the Australians put-in instant runoff voting, and I think it’s working out well for them.

Wow we got screwed as a Nation Today. I’ll never vote for an incumbent again. My recommendations are dump your dollars and American stock. Take long positions in the Euro and ADR Receipts and forget about American investments for a while. Also start taking deductions on your Income Taxes. I always used to overpay, figuring, “aww let Uncle Sam have the extra cash”.
Never again will I do that as its not Uncle Sam that gets the Money, its the Banks,Wall Street and Congress that take your tax dollars for their own use. We Need a Third National Party!
