    Tied not just by money, but by policies. So, McCrazy will be relying on Big Money Interests which can become another campaign point for Obama to go after. The few voters who actually believe McCrazy's bullshit are probably tapped out by now, as evidenced by his struggling for money anyway.

    The American people will not allow the capitalists who have put so many into penury over the last 8 years get away with it...all you have to do is look at the "small money" Obama has raised. People are pissed, and McCrazy doesn't even realize it; he lives in a rich bubble just like his mentors, Bush43 among them.

    Where's Cindy's tax returns, and what the hell is she hiding? How much money has she and her company provided to McCrazy? Another company funded by mob interests years ago--such is the hypocrisy of the Ice Queen and her Consort.

    Let Me Think about this for a minute. What does Bushco get in returm? Can you say scott free, off the hook, cover up, corruption?

    This is no surprise. The corporate greedy pigs are terrified that Obama and the Dems will run the show in January. They are shitting their pants. McBush will continue the same ole same ole and that is why he won't hurt for cash. The corp-pigs will do anything to hold onto this power. Anything. I am sure Diebold is working hard right now on their three for one voting system in the red southern states....McCain gets three votes for every African-American vote for Barack.

    Oh those delcious gay pride parade video commercials with bare butts in chaps are now being edited for commercials come October.

    All that's left are corporate interests to hit up. The people have deserted the GOP.

    Dems to launch one-stop-shop McCain oppo site

    The DNC will tomorrow launch "McCainPedia," a wiki-like hub of their opposition research on the GOP nominee.

    The site features a bevy of articles and documents organized into such categories as "economy," "security" and "ethics."

    Unlike WIkipedia, though, the general public (and McCain's campaign) can't offer their own edits to the material.

    The goal is to not just provide a one-stop-shop of anti-McCain information but to underscore the party's commitment to using technology to get their message out. In addition to the text, they've included video, some of it culled from the committe's trackers who've been following McCain across the country.

    "While the base of the Republican Party continues to shrink, Democrats are growing our ranks by trusting the American people with the facts of John McCain's own record," said Howard Dean in unveiling the site.

    AZ and UT, the only states McCrazy might carry...yeah. Looks like Mitt will be delivering the Mormon vote and Cindy will be buying votes in AZ. Both have a vested interest in doing so...Mitt craves the VP slot, and Cindy wants to be First Pimp for the BoyToy [snark] she bought. : )

    Obama has an awful lot to work with here, doncha think?

    My question to Mc


    My question to McCain: Would you pardon convicted and at the present time incarcerated one Randall "Duke" Cunningham and do you promise now you will not at any time during your presidency?

    Oil companies will probably pour money into a 527 that will educate the public re Obama.
    That's partly why the price of gas is up. We'll be making the donations.
  • DCinDC · 1 year ago
    In late April, John McCain entered into an agreement with the Republican National Committee that would allow him to raise upwards of $70,000 from individual donors. Normally under the law individual donors have a maximum amount of $2,300. Big difference in the law and what McCain is doing.

    Do we really want a president bought and paid for by a few very rich individuals? Did McCain author these campaign finance laws with the idea he could use this back door to raise more money than normally allowed? McCain looks more and more like a crook. Corruption!

    Bush must be very happy that McCain has to rely on Bush Republicans to finance his campaign. Now, McCain is in Bush's pocket no matter what claims of independence from Bush he wishes to misrepresent to the American people. McCain's problem is that the perceptions that he depends on lobbyists and George W. Bush to fund his candidacy are facts. In other words, the financial structure of McCain's campaign belies his claims of being a man of the people in that the people aren't financing his campaign the way they are financing Obama's......and McCain is literally keeping his campaign afloat by the good graces of lobbyists and Bush Republicans.

    That picture of Grampa's 'Bull For Sale' rally is so pathetic, I almost feel bad for the old golddigger.

    Bush's bucks are a little tied up in the little 700k acre plot next to Poppy's 900k one in Paraguay. So don't ask.
