It is not a commercial. It is a Presidential address to the nation. If people are bothered by that, they can watch MTV or something.

Exactly. And "Presidential Addresses" run free of charge as a public service, as opposed to this block of PAID ADVERTISING.

I hope you're right, but I sincerely doubt it.

I think is will be a congrats to President McCain for winning.

Maybe he is going to resign tonight.

Ohh wait, McCain will come up with something to wipe out the 6 million dollar joke.

He is wasting your money Obots.

We all know what he is about, its you who follow him who are blind.

Waiting on McCain to steal his thunder AGAIN....

PRESIDENT MCCAIN WILL ADDRESS THE NATION SOON.



* Yes, this will back fire, people are already sick of his buying of the election and now this when everyone is losing their homes, cars and need money for food, Obama is spending 6 million dollars to lie to us again.

Now we find out Obamas own Aunt is living in a slum in Boston and starving and he is out spending 6 mils on a joke.

How about his spreading the wealth comment, will he be talking about that tonight??

This is America. The best way to reach us is through our TV sets. Sad, but true. As long as he keeps saying what he has been saying it will not backfire. It is basically a one-man debate. Millions will tune in and tomorrow we'll see the clips all over the news and YouTube. It is kind of a final blow to McCain.

Some of the recent posters are so bereft of ideas or even decency that they are left with nothing but their vulgar bathroom images and write on C-D as if it were their lavatory wall. It does reveal the caliber of the opposition --but it is still sad.
