With McCain, there's at least some hope for genuine, GOOD change. Unlike Barack Obama, who has spent his entire life being a follower, McCain has taken risks by sticking with what he believes. From the Gang of 14, changing his mind on McCain, that's just the kind of guy he is.
"1. He doesn't run a smear campaign despite saying he's campaigning on "straight talk.""
-What did Barack Obama promise?
A new kind of politics.
What did Barack Obama give us?
The campaign that destroyed Hillary Clinton.
The campaign that lies about the Ayers association (William Ayers and Barack Obama crossing paths on a street sounds like a bad joke), and wishes it would go away, when it is Obama himself who has the power to stop it.

Dozens Of Call Center Workers Walk Off Job In Protest Rather Than Read McCain Script Attacking Obama
By Greg Sargent - October 27, 2008, 5:18PM
"Some three dozen workers at a telemarketing call center in Indiana walked off the job rather than read an incendiary McCain campaign script attacking Barack Obama, according to two workers at the center and one of their parents.
Nina Williams, a stay-at-home mom in Lake County, Indiana, tells us that her daughter recently called her from her job at the center, upset that she had been asked to read a script attacking Obama for being "dangerously weak on crime," "coddling criminals," and for voting against "protecting children from danger."
Williams' daughter told her that up to 40 of her co-workers had refused to read the script, and had left the call center after supervisors told them that they would have to either read the call or leave, Williams says. The call center is called Americall, and it's located in Hobart, IN.
"They walked out," Williams says of her daughter and her co-workers, adding that they weren't fired but willingly sacrificed pay rather than read the lines. "They were told [by supervisors], `If you all leave, you're not gonna get paid for the rest of the day."
The daughter, who wanted her name withheld fearing retribution from her employer, confirmed the story to us. "It was like at least 40 people," the daughter said. "People thought the script was nasty and they didn't wanna read it."
A second worker at the call center confirmed the episode, saying that "at least 30" workers had walked out after refusing to read the script.
"We were asked to read something saying [Obama and Democrats] were against protecting children from danger," this worker said. "I wouldn't do it. A lot of people left. They thought it was disgusting."
This worker, too, confirmed sacrificing pay to walk out, saying her supervisor told her: "If you don't wanna phone it you can just go home for the day."
The script coincided with this robo-slime call

Representatives at Americall in Indiana, and at the company's corporate headquarters in Naperville, Illinois, didn't return calls for comment."
"With McCain, there's at least some hope for genuine, GOOD change...
McCain has taken risks by sticking with what he believes...
He doesn't run a smear campaign despite saying he's campaigning on "straight talk."..."
NO. McCain is about the same dirty old slimy pathetic political filth that his close ally, George Bush, found so effective in 2000 and 2004. Maybe McCain was once principled, a straight talker, but now he is just a failed sliming sell out. He doesn't believe anything, but will say anything. Pathetic merchant of lies, hate and fear.
"The campaign that has fueled the fires of sexism, racism, and prejudice with no regard for who gets hurt in the process...
The campaign that's not a new kind of politics, but stereotypically like those of the olden days."

Listen at about :40 for the N-bomb. Palin hears it, gathers herself up, and continues louder than before. Doesn't stop. Doesn't say anything about it.
The campaign that harkens back to the olden days of racism, prejudice and a complete disregard for others is clearly the McCain/Palin campaign. "Kill him," "off with his head," "traitor", and now, "Because he's a n_____!"
"Mission Accomplished" at another McCain/Palin campaign rally.
For you, and every other McCain supporter, I respect your passion if not your grossly distorted sense of reality. With sense of humor intact, I offer you a link to your next bumper sticker. Supply side loving Republicans are going to love that an entrepreneurial spirit has anticipated your demand.
