Please. One trillion dollars of tax payer money on the line and some of you think a stupid debate over foreign policy is more important.

McCain or Obama will take over as President in a few months and I personally can't think of anything more important than what is going on right now in Washington.

McCain stop the campaign and let's put aside the election and do our job for America.

Obama...The Speaker Pelosi and Majority Leader Reid have my number and they can call me if they need me.

Please.

I can't understand why Mr. McCain can't do both.
But i guess It's tough when your too old to cut the
mustard.
Maybe some of us geezers round here
can teach him how to cut a rug.......

Imo, Neither of those bums could run a two kid day care

biz/managing experience is less than most 3rd year
sales people, imo.
A president does not have to know how to run a car wash or day care. He does need an idea of what he hopes from those businesses and then hires people who know all about car washes and kids to run them in his vision.

The president may have no idea of the suds cycle or the latest diapers, nor should he, but he can check out the finished cars and inspect the day care facility, and talk to the owners and parents. He can have his accountants check the books. If it all sucks, he should hire new managers.

We should hope that our president does expect a good washing and day care experience for us citizens. I would like a visionary who will try to upgrade the wash plant so it is better, faster, uses less water, etc. I would like to see the day care center become more accessible and be a great place for the kids.

So, I'll go for the visionary and progressive smart guy. There are millions of competent and committed people who, if hired, will keep everything running great as long as the president is involved and committed.

It is more important for the day care personnel to have experience in dealing with kids than it is for the president to have experience mopping the floors.

He's one up on you Quick. Why do both when you can put politics aside and yet score political points.

Part of the game is taking an upper hand by placing your opponent on his heels and having him react to your game plan.

So far you will have to admit McCain has made some bold moves and kept things close in an otherwise landslide for Obama after the Bush fiasco.

That's OK...Biden already admitted that Obama should have chosen Hillary. I'd say in an even match between the two I'll choose the better looking one.
