Barack isn't just whipping McCain because the economy is in the tank
I'm getting a little annoyed how the pundits are making like the only reason McCain is doing so poorly is because of the way the stock market and economy are crashing so much as of late.

Barack Obama is whipping McCain's sorry ass because of the pathetic Iraq War, because of the corruption of Republican administrations, and because Barack Obama is 50 times the candidate that McCain and Palin are, put together.

All of that, and the tanking economy just makes his lead a little bigger.

1. yes! It's been bugging me too
Obama has run a better campaign, not nasty, doesn't lie and didn't pick a bimbo as VP.

5. Aint that the truth. It's just about flawless. I've never seen a more careful campaigner
nor have I seen a campaigner who is doing all the things we want him to do, like not take any shit from the repukes.

4. Obama is inspiring at a time when America needs to be uplifted
Economy, war, Bush fatigue, fallen status in the eyes of the world...

Americans crave hope, change and a new beginning.

McCain offers negativity, anger, resentment and just plain old crankiness.

6. McCain Helped Put The Economy In The Tank
McCain never met a deregulation bill he didn't like. He has always been like that.
That's why he became one of the Keating 5.

He's still like that.

What good is all that experience if you never learn anything from it?
