Laura - you don't bad-mouth anyone. One of the reasons I'm comfortable talking with you. I wasn't refering to you when I made the 'anti-' comment.

What rest of the plan are you talking about, Jerry?

Every politician has more in mind than they're telling us. That was not a comment against Obama personally. I certainly hope any politician with a plan has more in mind - at least more specific ideas. McCain has other agendas in mind, also, that he's not talking about. The nature of the beast.
Read my lips: Laura, I quoted a bad source. I am chagrined. I generally try to do better, but I have to eat crow this time.

Yes, Obama's had his share of mistruths and scandals - I'm not denying that. Am I happy with it? Nah, actually I'm not. But jeez-louise, he stood there and took it. And he either explained it or he apologized for it, and, either way, he tried to fix it. I can respect that. I've had to do it myself, and I know it's not always easy to do.

I kind of feel that way about Palin. Several things she supported (the bridge to nowhere / the state owned industry) she later came back on and said she was wrong and changed her position. (She tried to keep the industry open because it was employing Alaskans, but she finally had to sell it.)
Yea - she's a pawn, but hey! Did you expect her to turn the job offer down? It also appears to be working in McCain's favor, so he may be insulting a lot of people but he also judged a lot of them correctly. The ones who feel insulted proabably wouldn't have voted for him anyway.
