September 27, 2008 at 9:32 PM in reply to: Who won the Presidential debate? Comments as the Presidential and Vice Presidential candidates debate before the election. #276463CAwiremanParticipantOh gee, someone opened up a thread on this.
I thought Obama held more of a presidential posture. He’s a far better speaker and easily grasps all the topics. I’d feel better if Obama respresented our country based upon his ability to communicate. Bush is an embarrassment. While I think all politicians are owned by big business and special interest, I feel that Obama is the lesser of two evils and is young enough to have not lost all touch with some honorable balance between reality and idealism. But, he is green. However, we need some youth to get us going in another direction. If he wins let’s hope he doesn’t fall into line with the tax and spend liberal stereotype.
(Did anyone notice the little bit of spit on Obama’s lower lip towards the end of the debate? Gross! You’d think someone would have let him know….)
Mcain is a long time committee politician. Having survived a war, survived 5 years in a prison camp, and possessing an unequaled up close and personal knowledge of the military, defense and defense spending, he’s without many peers in this area.
But let’s face it, republicans are about getting the rich richer at any cost. And, the Republican leaders don’t care if that means the elimation of the middle class. It surprises me how many middle class republicans don’t see this. Regardless of what Mcain says he’ll do, he’ll fall right in with the republicans and continue to feed the engine that is taking our country in the wrong direction.
If I’m incorrect and he actually intends to buck the system and try to get it on track, then great – if Obama loses, Mcain – go get em. But he doesn’t inspire confidence. When he talks, you want to tune him out. We’ve had enough of the empty republican suit for the last 8 years. While, Mcain would go a long way towards filling a suit that Bush has left empty, Mcain is a pro/heavy military supportor and will never admit that the decision to go into Iraq was a colossal error, or worse.September 27, 2008 at 9:32 PM in reply to: Who won the Presidential debate?

Weren’t familiar with the area and it was mainly $1 million and over.
Some homes were furnished, others were empty and the agents were suggesting that the owners were willing to negotiate.
These homes are out of our range and we aren’t planning to buy for years. But it was interesting to see what nice homes in that area were selling for.
I did ask the agents: Why are the owners selling? Some didn’t know, others said “the owner bought a new home”. I didn’t know what to believe. Maybe they are examples of the folks in the article…

September 24, 2008 at 8:01 PM in reply to: Carlyle group urges fast approval of bailout so it can help taxpayers #274877CAwiremanParticipantThe Carlye group is a huge equity company like Blackstone, etc.
They buy up companies, they outsource the jobs they can to India, consolidate subsidiaries, and sell off what’s left, after about 3 years leaving the company footing the bill for the sale.
Theys guys are vultures circling carcasses.
While I don’t know what the alternative is, this process doesn’t set well with me.
