I believe that's why Senator McCain could say with a straight face, as recently as this morning, and I quote "the fundamentals of our economy are strong." That, "We've made great progress economically" during the Bush years. But friends, I could walk from here to Lansing, and I wouldn't run into a single person who thought our economy was doing well, unless I ran into John McCain.

John McCain just doesn't seem to understand what middle class people are going through today. I don't doubt that he cares. He just doesn't think that we have any responsibility to help people who are hurting.


Full speech here.

My big question is: Why isn't Hilary taking Palin apart like a tinkertoy?

I think if she did the media would cast it as a catfight, and unfair because Hillary isn't on the ticket.

Hillary has basically been instructed not to go after Palin, IIRC.

Because if she was the point woman for attacks, the media would cast it as a catfight and frenzy about that and about how Hillary was such a mean bitch and just jellus because Palin might be the first female president

CNN is already treating her as the missing white woman of the day; it runs in the break room at work and every time I walk in, it's talking about Palin or running Palin doing her stump speech or McCain talking about Palin.
