George K

For GeorgeK

It would appear to me that the Dems would be the thankful ones that the media is not reporting BO’s lack of experience, his rather shady religious associations, and with his less then patriotic associations with Bill Ayers, a former leader of the Weather Underground. Enjoy your Kool Aid

Cry me a River

What a shame to see grown adults crying like babies... Folks I hate to point it out but your guy(McCain) is losing. Be a good sport and stop crying... BTW: I'm going to see and hear the next VP!

8:45 AM speech

Sorry I will not be able to attend the morning meeting. I will be at work where my tax dollars go to support the non working attendees.

Republicans should be thankful for the lack of media scurtiny

Do you really want the media to focus on John McCain? Were he to get more media coverage people just might learn who he really is. As Uncle Henry said: "Every election is a sort of advance auction sale of stolen goods."

Visibility for Virginia Beach

Whether a Democrat, Republican, Libertarian, Independent, the presence of a Vice Presidential candidate indicates the value of the city to the respective party.
