Skybow: You mean sing like McCain did with a VC accent?
That and embroil his opponent in soooooooo many lies and partial truths to discredit him...rather than promoting himself based on his own merit and election platform...yep that spells guts and dignity to me....
Indyfella: Well when you have tv interviews with citizens saying ACORN reps pressuring them to sign 20-25 times and there's dozens of similiar reports...I say it meets the duck test. Just my humble quack quack
Yeah Obama hired them once....so what..that has what to do with him????
Skybow: Yes there is sparky apparently you didn't read my post
John McCain's campaign has directed $175,000 to the firm of a Republican operative accused of massive voter registration fraud in several states.
According to campaign finance records, a joint committee of the McCain-Palin campaign, the RNC and the the California Republican Party, made a $175,000 payment to the group Lincoln Strategy in June for purposes of "registering voters." The managing partner of that firm is Nathan Sproul, a renowned GOP operative who has been investigated on multiple occasions for suppressing Democratic voter turnout, throwing away registration forms and even spearheading efforts to get Ralph Nader on ballots to hinder the Democratic ticket.
In a letter to the Justice Department last October, House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers said that that Sproul's alleged activities "clearly suppress votes and violate the law."
That Sproul would come under the employment umbrella of the McCain campaign -- the Republican National Committee has also separately paid Lincoln Strategy at least $37,000 for voter registration efforts this cycle -- is not terribly surprising. Sproul, who has donated nearly $30,000 to McCain's campaign, has been in the good graces of GOP officials for the past decade despite charges of ethical and potentially legal wrongdoing.
But his involvement with the Republican Party's voter registration efforts has the potential to create a political and public relations headache at a time when McCain can ill-afford one. For weeks the Arizona Republican and his allies have been seeking to tie Barack Obama to the community organization ACORN, which they have accused of potentially committing massive voter registration fraud. Sproul's contract with the GOP ticket -- in addition to news of Republican officials attempting to suppress Democratic turnout in California -- raises, for some, questions about McCain's own efforts.
The thing is, I can't find much on this other than the Huffington post. I've checked the major networks and seen nothing (Not even CNN). If I find something I'll certainly respond but you know me. I want to see something a little more concrete. I would think the liberal media would have this all over the place. Maybe I missed something and I will surely reply if I find it.

shipoker58: He isn't running...because he doesn't want to be president, maybe??
But endoresments should not sway anyone because it is based then on the person making the endosement and no longer the man running.
It is like the greatest scientific discoveries for health being made by actors and singers. The faith of belief is then put on the actors and singers ....the product is then bought without further thought by a great many.
What Powell thinks is then the issue instead of what Obama does. many fall for this. It should not be used by any politician. It is a form of manipulation. We are being feed much and the masses of unthought are hearded to an end by those of ability to manipulate.
I am not saying anything against Obama or McCain. I don't like the manipulation of the masses.
Skybow: Plenty of men didn't cooperate jlw and they would have done anything to bring their brother in arms home not abandon them.
He wasn't being tortured then was he, or maybe by a guilty conscious.
