The talking point for the week must be that McCain is a hero, but we don't need 4 more years of Bush/Cheney; 8 is enough. And McCain has voted with Bush 95% of the time.
McCain has said that the fundamentals of the economy are strong. It is true, though, Mr. Obama; they are! But never mind the facts, when you can demagogue the economy in front of 75,000 people.
This is clearly a populist campaign, which plays very well in a stadium setting.
OK, we've heard all this before. I'm only going to keep blogging this speech if he says something truly unexpected.
I just wonder, if the roles were reversed, would a Republican be talking to the convention crowd about how badly off the country is after 8 years of Democrat rule? I seem to remember Bush and Cheney in 2000 tacitly admitting that the economy was in good shape, but I remember Cheney saying "The wheel has turned and it is time for them to go" and Bush's signature line being "They have not led; we will!"
Obama acts like no outsourcing ever occurred before Bush came into office in January 2001. This is pure, unadulterated rubbish. I remember the '90's. NAFTA passed in 1993 and the factories started shutting down.
OH, Obama has just said he will cut taxes for 95% of all working families....who will qualify? Clinton promised the same thing, then had to take it off the table.
And we will also end our dependence on Middle East oil in 10 years. Impossible. What world is Obama living in? He WILL have trouble for this. Americans have to know that this cannot be done. Alternative fuel research is not far enough along.
