McCain loves bailouts. I've told Republicans from the start of the primaries. There is NO WAY McCain could beat Obama, only Ron Paul could. Republicans are so far removed from reality its not even funny.

The ironic thing about shunning Paul (and they did in no uncertain terms from the beginning...barely even acknowledging him during debates and media coverage) is that many, many democrats would have crossed the line for Paul. It would have been a total sweep, let's be honest.If Palin could attract that many votes, Paul and a well-vetted, qualified VP pick could have picked up all of those votes plus a lot of the dem vote.I supported Paul for a long time before switching to Obama after realizing how tight a race it was and accepting that a Palin possibility was not acceptable. The only wildcard is the crazy fundamentalists that Palin brought into the fray. You really need someone stupid that can cater to that caliber of southerner and a Dr. Paul campaign would have likely been over their heads. With all due respect.

You're really never read your history have you..."The phrase separation of church and state is generally traced to the letter written by Thomas Jefferson in 1802 to the Danbury Baptists, in which he referred to the First Amendment to the United States Constitution as creating a "wall of separation" between church and state.[3] The phrase was then quoted by the United States Supreme Court first in 1878,[4] and then in a series of cases starting in 1948.[5] This led to increased popular and political discussion of the concept."- <a class="user" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separation_of_church_and_state">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separation_of_church_ ...</a>

The Republican party needs to get back to there original!! plateform and show us old time republicans, that they mean business this time. actions speak louder than words!! Voting for a republican use!! to mean they were going to protect the constitution and our God given rights. Even a blind man can see! that the Dem's and Repub's are one in the same now. I voted for Chuck Baldwin of the Constitution Party, It was the first time in my life I didn't vote for a repub.and it felt good!! because I voted for the person and what they stood for and not just a vote for a party.
