You'd Think Obama/Biden Should Win Simply On The "Not Tainted By Scandal" Ticket
The idea that a good portion of the electorate could pull the lever for a VP candidate embroiled in numerous scandals and a POTUS candidate who was at the center of an S&L scandal that bears striking resemblance to the meltdown in the financial markets this week boggles the mind.

All things being equal - which they aren't - why would anyone vote for a couple of proven liars and thieves when there is an excellent alternative available?

OK, I'll answer my own question: racism.

3. Our Party is permitting the Republicans in the House and Senate
to put this failure at the feet of Clinton and the Democrats.

The Democrats in the House and Senate are so good at laying low
and staying off TV--they permit the GOP to put out any information
they wish. Undefended, it sticks.

Why do you think their numbers have gotten so low?? They have never
understood the importance of TV .
