Most Americans can't even define Socialist or Socialism. These claims by McCain are just more smoke to distract the American public (which has a notoriously short attention span as it is) from the fact that the platform offers no solutions, only fear, hate, and more of the same we have had for the last 8 years. I am concerned that Obama may lose:
- there are more racists in the US than many will admit
- fear-mongering has a proven record of keeping otherwise thoughtful people from thinking straight
- we have had 8 years of one man with "daddy issues"...do we need 4 more?
Obama is looking to do nothing more than return to Clinton's tax setup....and we all know what a mess the country was back then...all that budget surplus and employment...eeeew!...who would want that?
TR was a huge champion of breaking up monopolies and the power corporations had...hardly a plank in the current GOP platform.
He was also a man who took responsibility and it's time Americans stood up and admitted that they had a hand in the current economic trouble - no onf forced them to buy homes they knew the couldn't afford or to live way beyond their means on credit cards:
"If you could kick the person in the pants responsible for most of your trouble, you wouldn't sit for a month."
