Thanks for not reading the entire post...I am absolutely not "hiding my head in the sand" when it comes to the McCain camp. He has been less than stellar in many business relationships, personal relationships, and other gaffes you apparently thought important enough to school me in. The point of the post is that OBAMA IS NOT PERFECT!! The second point is MCCAIN IS NOT PERFECT!There should ALWAYS be open discussion when dealing with the personal past of both candidates, with nothing being considered off limits. The problem is when neither side are focusing on solving real problems this country has, not when one side is telling on the other. Support Obama or support McCain, the point is, there is nothing wrong with being completely aware of both the past and future plans, pals, and potential of our candidates.
The truth is, she is right…Obama has these specific connections to a terrorist (American or not, old or not, yes, a true terrorist), and many other relationships with people who have made racially charged statements, or in their actions, have presented themselves as dangerous, un-American, or in the least, ignorant and hateful. While Elisabeth may not be considered smart or liberal enough to run in the cool circles, the truth is many Americans believe in the adage "You are the company you keep." If you don't think associations mean much in a candidate's capability or character, then don't worry about it. Just remember that both sides are presenting this sort of information, and both sides have yet to fully explain a purposeful economic salvation plan for their ticket (another issue important to Americans). Find a focus on either side, instead of downing them when they DO tell the truth about the other.
