I have to agree that all of congress is to blame, HOWEVER, many of the members of congress (on both sides) have publicly stated that they were mislead by the president about the threat level. So I tend to put a little more blame on him. But you are correct suzy_Q the point is that we are now there and how do we get out repsonsibly??

I don't personally care, I was just wondering where one might get their facts. And according to 90% or republicans muslims are bad. You know because without promoting fear as the basis of an election the last 4 years would have never happened.

Mr_America agreed it would not be his only qualification, but I heard more about than any of his other qualifications and not just from him, but in almost every RNC speech that I saw. The 30+ years in senate to be would be the qualification that they should have put the most focus on and it didn't come across that way at all. It was implied and I believe basically said that because of what happen to him he knows how to run the country or is more patriotic because of it. You can be just as patriotic having never served a day in the military. Sure him choosing to stay rather than go home would be considered heroic, but president I am not so sure.

In the same token I would not at all suggest that being a community organizer would qualify one to be president. I am honestly a little conerned that neither candidate have the executive experience that is typically seen in an election/president. Excluding Palins 2 yrs as Gov. Because no matter how many times she says that Obama has no executive experience and she does, I think she needs to step back and remember that neither does the top person on her own ticket. (Again the election is between Obama and McCain)

I just want to say that in no way would I try to degrade the troops, I am proud of the military just not the people who put them where they don't need to be. With that being said, I am just asking opinions, what makes being a POW a certification to run the United States? And no dem in Obama's camp will ask/say that because of the backlash they would recieve, but in my opinion it is a fair question especially if McCain and his people are using it to win an election.

Suzy_Q I guess maybe I should elaborate, I would agree that McCain did'nt spend much of his time bashing Obama, he had the rest of the republican party to do that for him. I felt like rather than attacking his politics they made fun of him and to me came off as elitists. And maybe that is why Obama didn't put out a congratulatory commercial. Because Palin talked about him as though she walked on water and parted seas.

Of course when talking about politics we can argue back and forth all day. I think that the RNC was very brutal and vicious when attacking the Dems. I thought the DNC was mostly repspectful to McCain and his camp. Maybe that is why so many "regular" democrats like you and me feel the need to lash out because our party is for lack of a better word too nice. So here dems is something to lighten the mood and laugh about, because you all know the daily show is a good source for reliable news :)

I have to agree that there are pleanty of issues to talk attack John McCain on with out belittling what he went through and the fact that he served our county. The lack of emotion was definately there last night and it did seem somewhat "mechanical". Sarah Palin had the crowd more in an uproar than he did. I thought the presidential race was between McCain and Obama...sorry but over the past 4 days it seems more like it is between Obama and Palin....maybe (and trust me I am a strong democrat and would not in a million years vote for him) John McCain is that much of a genius in his unlikely and highly debated choice for VP? It has taken a ton of pressure off what he has to say and focused it all on her. (Sorry I got a little off topic)!
