Obama was compared to Britney Spears and Paris Hilton (her parents actually paid money for McCain campaign). Now he is compared to Mose. Does it make any sense?
Obama=B.Spears=Mose
Obama is called a great communicator just like Reagan. So, in some ways, both are similar, but Democrats never compared Reagan with Hollywood stars IN SPITE OF THE FACTS THAT HE WAS AN ACTOR!!!!
Where is a logic here?
I am waiting for the first presidential debate between McCain and Obama. I am waiting for any type of positive message from McCain. Did any of you heard any positive AND REALISTIC message for future from McCain?

I have one thing to say where I heard it I don't know but this is not a casting call for president it is an election of a new president. We will be stuck with him for the next four years. If I had the two resumes in front of me for a CEO it would be McCain. Has the experience and is not wet behind the ears.

We already had a CEO and it was a vice-president Cheney. He did himself good during this eight years but the country is in a worse shape than 8 years ago. The only people who benefited are the very rich ones.

Good add from the McCain camp for Obama. Obama will simply say "Yes, I can (lead)!"
Obama has good people behind him, he managed to unite Democrats behind him and attract (conservative) republicans and Independant voters (conservatives) as well!
He is beter at economics than McCain and will focus more on American internal affairs, and that is what the ordinairy Americans, who are the voters, want!

A number of progressive religious figures are angry over the McCain campaign's recent ad "The One," which they believe paints Barack Obama as a kind of anti-Christ, specifically to conservative evangelicals:
On Beliefnet.com, Mara Vanderslice, founder and director of the pro-Obama religious group Matthew 25 Network, writes:
I found this McCain campaign ad "The One" to be one of the most offensive ads we have seen in American politics to date.
At best, this ad implies that those who plan to support Senator Obama are looking for a new savior or a replacement Messiah. But many are reading it even more darkly as an attempt to portray Obama as an anti-Christ figure.
A vote for Senator Obama is a vote for the man we think will make the best President, not for a new Messiah. As Christians, we have one Lord And Savior. Jesus Christ. It is blasphemous to suggest otherwise.
And it is beyond offensive to suggest that Senator Obama is a false Messiah or the anti-Christ himself. How low can we go? It shows the McCain campaign is willing to make a mockery of our faith to feed people's fears. Christians need to reject this out of hand.

Scrub a dub dub: JohnMcCain.com removes McCain calling himself “The One” from websitewww.crooksandliars.com/2008/08/04/scrub-a-dub-dub-johnmccaincom-removes-mccain-calling-himself-the-one-from-website/It looks like John McCain’s people are at it again. They just released an attack ad against Obama trying to make him the anti-Christ and calling Obama: The One. As they did with their “Celebrity” attack ad scrubbing on their website—it seems that they have scrubbed away John McCain saying that he is in fact: The One. John McCain’s Experience Sets Him Apart In The Presidential Field John McCain: “The difference between me and Mayor Giuliani and Governor Romney [is that] I fought against the failed Rumsfeld-Casey strategy and advocated for the policy that is succeeding. I’m the one that did that. I’m the only one. And I said it in the summer of 2003, and I said it and I predicted that that strategy would fail because it was a terribly flawed strategy and I advocated the one that is succeeding now. That’s based [on my] military experience from service for many years on the Armed Services Committee as well as in the military.” (WKXL Concord, 9/4/07)

UPDATE: (Nicole) Wow. McCain really does think he’s the One.
Thursday, McCain called Debra Bartoshevich, the Racine County resident who lost her delegate seat at the Democratic National Convention for endorsing McCain instead of Obama, a “person of great courage” for endorsing him.
“Perhaps your reward will be in heaven - not here on Earth,” McCain told Bartoshevich as he addressed the Civic Centre crowd.
