I didn't like her speech, about "small town values". It sounded like they want to return to the 1950s. The whole thing, to me, sounded like a rally for "White America" to stop the Democrates from changing the establishment. So they nominate "wholesome Mrs.America" as a VP. I do agree with you about laying off the personal attacks. Folks are scared really, this whole election is something very new. Everything is a turning point. We have a our first black candiate for President. Ya, damn right the otherside wants to "shock and awe" us to go back to the 1950's "small town values. The Democrates are scared too, they have something very historic happening in their own party, and want to do everything to keep their lamb safe from the slaughter. Hopefully, they won't shoot themselves in the foot. Its early in the game. McCain and his VP don't "get it" but they were never talking to folks like me in the first place. Yeah, I heard her statements about prisoners. Well, she and McCain don't have worry about the ex-convicts in all the red states(southern states) about voting since they lost that right. So there goes the half the minority votes right there. They're not counting on the other minority folks to come out and vote. That's my "straight talk" right there. Sorry, if I sounded a little pissy, but I don't like where they want to take the country. That's who they are appealing too, the folks that want to go back to era. I can see it in my own city, the progress that was made, is slowly being eroded back to what it use to be.
