The work of community organizers, who work for low salaries to help people in impoverished communities, is getting lots of attention this week as Republicans poke jabs at Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama’s job experience.

Judged: 8 6 4 I hardly think Palin is 'stupid'. I do think she was doing exactly what she was supposed to do. The same thing Biden does, which is play the attack dog for the Presidential candidate. There really isn't anything wrong with being a community organizer, but Obama should have had the forethought to realize that attacking her experience would only open the door to attacking his. Unfortunately for him, this was a very unwise move politically. He's going to need to prove that as an organizer he had to make decisions that were essential, important and would have an impact upon many people. He'll also need to show a vast scope of responsibility. As for his legislative work, they also brought up that approximately 80% of votes he was present for - he didn't vote. Many of the other 20% where he did vote, he had added 'earmarks' for special interests that he had connections to.(Trinity Church, The Acorn Foundation and Father Flager's Ministry among others.) I'm surprised that these issues were not brought up, I suspect they will be in the future. |

Judged: 5 5 1 Yeah, she didn't think before she spoke. It happens to McCain a lot, maybe it's rubbing off. I'm pretty sure that insulting people who give back to their communities wasn't such a good idea. |

Judged: 6 3 3 Well, as mayor of that small town, she did get to cut the ribbon with the oversized scissors every time a new gas station or Wallmart opened. That sort of counts as executive experience. And she recently had to hire a lawyer after being hit with ethics violation charges, so that right there puts her in league with some of our most executively experienced politicians. |

Judged: 1 1 TOM BROKAW: But the fact is, governor, that you have had eight years of a bush administration and a lot of Republicans in Congress for the last eight years, so why wouldn't the American people say, look they had their shot we're going to change? TOM RIDGE: Because John Bush - because John McCain is very much his own man... Get more details: http://www.sefermpost.com/sefermpost/2008/09/... |

"But now, change is coming. I'll lower all of your taxes while at the same time creating programs to train workers in community colleges to do God knows what and extend unemployment benefits Because God knows you people are gonna need them. Ill lower all of your taxes yet somehow continue to spend billions in Iraq and Iran if you let me. I'll lower all of your taxes yet I wont leave this massive debt to some less fortunate generation to deal with." "With the help of the hockey mom and her lipstick, I will change Washington. I, John McCain, will protect you all from... John McCain!" |
