Inconveniently for Palin, that's the very same secessionist party that her husband, Todd, belonged to for seven years and that she sent a shout-out to as Alaska governor earlier this year. ("Keep up the good work," Palin told AIP members. "And God bless you.")

    I didn't see it that way. McCain was too busy stumping and not giving the audience, local and viewer, more information. I saw him weaving around and dodging specific that I would have considered important enough to consider his campaign. Obama also weaved and dodged, but he was more of the meat and potatoes course, You got to see and smell was was going to be served.

    You kidding me? McCain completely OWNED Obama. Crisp and to the point and didn't avoid questions... unlike Obama who always tried to go back and attack McCain when he was supposed to be answering the question, etc.
