Race to the finish in search of votes

McCain tours back roads of Ohio, shows off action-hero Schwarzenegger. Obama TV ads appear on airwaves in Arizona, Georgia and North Dakota

From Beacon Journal wire services
COLUMBUS: John McCain bused through Ohio in search of votes Friday while Barack Obama broadened his quest to win Republican states by buying TV ads in McCain's Arizona for the first time and returning to the airwaves in Georgia and North Dakota.

Upbeat and on the offensive as he toured the back roads of Ohio for a second day, McCain accused rival Obama of a Halloween trick to tax people's retirement contributions.

McCain brought a little extra star power along with him, showing off Arnold Schwarzenegger, the movie star and governor of California, in the state capital, and Rudy Giuliani, the former mayor of New York, in Hanoverton.

''John McCain has served this country longer in the POW camp than his opponent has served in the United States Senate,'' Schwarzenegger told a pumped-up crowd in the Nationwide Arena in Columbus. ''I only play an action hero in my movies, but John McCain is a real action hero.''

Being president is about leadership, Schwarzenegger said: ''If you were in a POW cell with the threat of dangers and torture as part of your daily life, who would you want with you?'' The crowd chanted McCain's name.

Campaign officials said they have just had their best 10 days of polling since the convention, boasted of a voter contact operation that would dwarf President George W. Bush's from 2004, and promised a final 24-hour burst of campaigning in seven cities in seven states leading up to Election Day.

''We're jazzed up by the movement,'' said campaign manager Rick Davis. ''And we are witnessing, I believe, probably one of the greatest comebacks that you've seen since John McCain won the primary.''

Since the convention, the campaign and the Republican National Committee have spent $325 million — the most ever spent by the GOP in a two-month period in history. Davis expects to outspend Obama on television by $10 million in the last 10 days of the race. And in the last week alone, Republicans say they have contacted 5.3 million voters and expect to reach 17 million more in the next four days.

This weekend, McCain is to appear on Saturday Night Live, indicating that as the Republican nominee, he is willing to accept the inherent risks in a comedy spot only three days before the election, and on a show that has regularly mocked the Republican ticket.

McCain, who on Friday was on a daylong bus tour in Ohio, will be in Virginia, Pennsylvania and New York today, possibly in New Hampshire on Sunday, and on an eight-state swing, ending very late in Arizona, on Monday.

Biden stumps in Kettering

Obama's running mate, Joe Biden, also in Ohio on Friday, spoke to about 1,500 people at a rally in Kettering. He took aim at McCain and his running mate, Sarah Palin, as making personal attacks, and Biden hinted that the worst might be yet to come.

''You cannot lead the world with a divided country,'' he told a rally in suburban Dayton. ''We need to move past the politics of division and attack. Over the past week, Republicans have gone way over the top in my view, calling Barack Obama every name in the book. It will probably get worse in the next three and a half days.''

Meanwhile, Obama was expanding his reach and drawing large crowds as he moved methodically from one state to another that voted Republican in 2004.

''What you started here in Iowa has swept the nation,'' he told several thousand on an unusually warm Halloween day in Highland, Ind. His victory in the state's Democratic caucuses on Jan. 3 set him on the path to the party's nomination, and now to a lead in the presidential polls in the campaign's final hours.

One senior adviser said the Illinois senator had been given the names of potential Cabinet and White House staff picks for review but had not had much time to consider them. The official spoke on condition of anonymity.

TV ads in Arizona

Aides announced Obama would air television commercials in McCain's home state of Arizona as well as in North Dakota and Georgia. He had run ads in the latter two states earlier in the campaign before suspending the effort.

The ad in McCain's state was a soft sell in a campaign that has had its share of attacks. This spot featured endorsements from former Secretary of State Colin Powell and Warren Buffett, the nation's best-known investor.

Even so, McCain's campaign manager, Davis, dismissed it as a waste. ''We encourage them to pick other states that we intend to win'' to spend their money, he said.

Obama's campaign manager, David Plouffe, indicated in a conference call Friday that he thinks that the prospects of victory in Georgia, with the help of black and young voters, are more likely than a win in Arizona because of McCain's support in his home state.

However, he said, support from Hispanics and some suburban voters in Arizona, which has a Democratic governor, could make the election close there.

''It's enough in the realm of possibility that we want to put a little extra effort in the end,'' Plouffe said. Obama won't campaign in the three states in the final days leading to Election Day, appearing instead in Ohio, Florida and other battleground states.

Senator McCain stands up in front of veterans groups wherever he goes and pulls out his quote from George Washington on the need to take care of returning veterans. Meanwhile, McCain has one of the very worst voting records when it comes to veterans issues of any legislator past or present.

But you don't have to believe me - many non-partisan stats are out there for you to find out what a FRAUD McCain is on your own. At the following link you can see just what the DAV thinks of him:http://www.votesmart.org/issue_rating_detail.php?r_id=3483.
At this next link - you can see how the IAVA feels about him:http://www.votesmart.org/issue_rating_detail.php?r_id=4227&rtype=R

In both cases above- you will see that Obama (and every other Democrat) scores MUCH, MUCH better than McCain.

No Fraud can be greater than the fraud the Republicans on the aggregate have pulled when sending troops into hell and bringing them back to no support. Only TWO Republicans above 66?

Using non-sequitor sort of argument McCain has tried to foist in so many ways - if McCain has been lying to veterans all along - his brothers in arms - why then, should he hesitate to lie to you?

D,

Obama has a half brother living in a slum in Kenya on a budget of $1/month. He has an aunt living in a slum in Boston, who is an illegal alien, and who is breaking the law by contributing to her nephew's political campaign. If BHO won't help his blood relatives and openly supports illegal acts by these relatives, what makes you think he will protect and help you?

Who do Republicans think the best President of the United States was? Did they also know that FORMER REAGAN ADVISOR ENDORSES OBAMA?

Former Reagan chief of staff Ken Duberstein told CNN’s Fareed Zakaria this week he intends to vote for Democrat Barack Obama on Tuesday.

Duberstein said he was influenced by another prominent Reagan official - Colin Powell - in his decision.

“Well let’s put it this way - I think Colin Powell’s decision is in fact the good housekeeping seal of approval on Barack Obama.”

Powell served as national security advisor to Reagan during Duberstein’s tenure as chief of staff.

Duberstein spoke with Zakaria about his final days in the Reagan White House. The Reagan official, along with Clinton Secretary of State Madeleine Albright and Carter National Security Advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski, also discussed the transition process to a new administration.

What does Joe the Plumber have to say about that? Are you calling Reagan's advisor a socialist?

WHO IS JOHN McCAIN? Read below.

I wish I could say I was surprised by this, but let face it: there were signs. There was John McCain’s long opposition to a national holiday for Martin Luther King, Jr., his use of racial epithets, his love of racist jokes, and the increasingly racist tone of his campaign.

It seems that John McCain was a member and sat on the board of the US Council for World Freedom (”USCWF”), an organization noted for its extreme ideology, racism, and anti-semitism. This organization has been described as “largely a collection of Nazis, fascists, anti-Semites, sellers of forgeries, vicious racialists, and corrupt self seekers.” Why on earth would John McCain associate himself with such a group? Why would he take a leadership position with it?

John McCain’s membership in this group goes a long way towards explaining why his brother Joe McCain goes around referring to everything he doesn’t agree with as “communist.” In the eyes of this group Jews, Blacks and Communists are all pretty much the same thing.

I don’t see how anyone who calls themself a friend of Israel could be involved in any way with such an organization, let alone sit on its board and coordinate its activities. When it comes to racism and anti-semitism, John McCain has a lot of explaining to do.

BOTTOM LINE: NO TAX CUT BY OBAMA

OBAMA's PLAN MAKES ALL AMERICANS PAY HIGHER TAXES

Senator Obama is not being truthful when he says only Americans earning $250,000 will get a tax increase.

Senator Obama plans to let the current 2007 rates lapse. The rates under Obama will return to the higher 2000 level. Senator Obama claims that letting a tax cut lapse is not a "tax increase."

But requiring Americans to pay more taxes than in 2007 amounts to a TAX INCREASE.

For a married family, filing jointly and earning $75,000 a year, this INCREASE will be $3,074.

For a married family, filing jointly and earning $50,000, this INCREASE will be $1,512.

Even struggling American families making just $25,000 a year will see a tax INCREASE-- they'll pay $715 more in 2010 than they did in 2007.

Across the board, ALL WORKING AMERICANS WILL SEE SIGNIFICANT INCREASES in their taxes with Obama's plans.

WHY DID OBAMA GET OVER $100 THOUSAND FROM FANNIE MAE???

OBAMA GAVE A PAYBACK TO FANNIE MAE

Back in 2004, when the Republicans controlled the House, they tried to have a hearing on the threat that the financial mismanagement of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac presented to the U.S. economy. Here’s the video evidence of the Democrats blocking efforts to hold officials accountable. This problem did not get the publicity it deserved in the liberal media, such as the New York Times and the Washington Post. This incredible Congressional video shows Republicans in Congress trying to regulate better Fannie Mae and how the Democrats fought that tooth and nail, even referring to criticism of former chairman Raines as a "lynching".

Redistribution of Wealth

Today on my way to lunch I passed a homeless guy with a sign that read "Vote Obama, I need the money."

Once in the restaurant my server had on a "Obama 08" tie, again I laughed as he had given away his political preference--just imagine the coincidence.

When the bill came I decided not to tip the server and explained to him that I was exploring the Obama redistribution of wealth concept. He stood there in disbelief while I told him that I was going to redistribute his tip to the homeless guy outside. The server angrily stormed from my sight.

I went outside, gave the homeless guy $10 and told him to thank the server inside as I've decided he could use the money more.

At the end of the day, I realized the homeless guy was grateful for the money he did not earn, but the waiter was pretty angry that I gave away the money he did earn.

I guess Obama's redistribution of wealth is easy to swallow until it happens to you.

OMG,

The middle class cannot become strong again by allowing the government to become an integral part of every aspect of its existence. The government has proven over and over again (see: 1930s, 1960s and 1970s in the US) it is a lousy arbiter of wealth distribution.

The only way the individual can get ahead is by making good personal and financial choices. No one held a gun to the head of a loan applicant to sign up for a mortgage they could not afford. In fact the federal government (led by congressional dems) helped perpetuate the disaster by forcing banks to make bad loans to people who couldn't afford it in order to be "fair" to minorities. People made bad choices and now want the government to bail them out.

Also, the overall economy was expanding and had in fact expanded uninterupted for a record length of time. The housing bubble, caused by the dems, burst which caused this downturn. Other factors included oil prices, which the dems wouldn't help to lower by allowing drilling off the coasts and in ANWR.

Ohio's economy has sucked for years, including when BJC was president, and can be blamed on poor leadership in Columbus, not DC.

Senator Goldwater's granddaughter and the rest of his descendants have endorsed Obama because they can't stomach the sleaziness of the Republican campaign or the philosophy of the 'new' Republicans-today's Republican party is nothing like the Republican party of Goldwater, Rockefeller, and Eisenhower. George W. Bush and Karl Rove have turned a fiscally conservative, socially moderate, small government party into a disgusting machine for the looting of the taxpayers by well connected big businesses like Halliburton and Bechtel. They favor intrusion into private matters such as whether or not a woman should get an abortion, and Palin favors the end of separation of Church and State. McCain clearly would give us more of the same as the current Administration. Their incompetence has given us huge budget deficits and a catastrophic failure of the banking and finance system. No wonder traditional Republicans like George Will and Secretary Powell are leaving the party in droves. The new Republican party's motto should be, "Not your father's Republican Party -Unfortunately!" Vote Obama for a return to sanity and responsibility.

Tim,

Any Republican who is voting for Obama because of what they perceive has happened to their party in the past eight years was not a true Republican. A vote for Obama, Pelosi and Reid is a vote for a far left wing government that will certainly more intrusive on personal rights than the conservative Pro Life stand.

The Obama campaign has given a few glimpses on how he will govern if he is elected:

Three reporters have been booted from his plane because their papers endorsed McCain.

A TV station in Orlando has been black balled because a reporter asked Joe Biden some tough questions.

Democrat operatives from the great state of Ohio have broken several privacy laws in order to dig up dirt on Joe the Plumber, who's only "crime" was to ask a question of BHO who answered it by stating his true intentions of wealth distribution.

BHO's half brother and aunt are living in slums while he is a millionaire. While he keeps saying we are our brother's keeper. Sounds like he is waiting for the government to help his relatives.

BHO hasn't held a press conference in over a month.

Couple this with all of the secrecy regarding his life (grades at Cambridge and Harvard are sealed, Thesis at Cambridge won't be released, health history not available, original birth certificate not released, Aunt has been told to not talk to press until after the election, etc) and to state he will be an improvement is just wishfull thinking.

For a married family, filing jointly and earning $50,000, this INCREASE will be $1,512.

Even struggling American families making just $25,000 a year will see a tax INCREASE-- they'll pay $715 more in 2010 than they did in 2007.

Across the board, ALL WORKING AMERICANS WILL SEE SIGNIFICANT INCREASES in their taxes with Obama's plans.
