Most people know that Cindy McCain is John’s second wife, but the details surrounding his first marriage have been glaringly absent from the Republican nominee’s bio.
Carol McCain waited patiently in the U.S. while McCain was imprisoned for five years in Vietnam, raising their three children and suffering a car accident that left her terribly disfigured. After suffering through 23 surgeries that left her unable to walk, Carol began gaining weight.
Doctors wanted to get word of Carol’s injuries to her imprisoned husband, but she resisted because she thought he had enough problems already. When John was released and returned home, friends say he was appalled by her weight gain. Although their marriage would last another six years, he began persuing Cindy six months before they divorced and married her only one month later.

The new McCain ad focusing on B. Hussein’s relationship with Bill Ayers. Easily one of the best ads so far.
The NRA has endorsed McCain . I would guess this is another benefit the mavericky Palin nomination has brought the campaign.
Pollster Zogby warns everyone not to believe the Dem hype about the polls. McPalin, you see, is still very much in this race.

Disgusting.
That is all that comes to mind when I heard Cindy McCain unleash yet another low blow attack on Obama while stumping in Pennsylvania. Funny how the campaign that kept screaming "leave families out of it" when it came to very valid discussion of Palin’s teenage pregnant daughter and abstinence only teaching is now using their children as political pawns. Here’s part of Cindy’s screed:

Democrats may tax health benefits - The Boston Globe WASHINGTON - In the last month of the presidential campaign, it was one of Barack Obama and Joe Biden’s strongest attack lines: John McCain, they warned, would “tax your healthcare benefits for the first time ever.”But now, some Congressional Democrats in charge of health reform are talking about doing just that. ... more

Welcome to Vichy America
This was not just another election. The last time we had a presidential election, the Left tried to get a brazen traitor elected - namely John Kerry. This new President from the Left is even more than that. Obama was no traitor, because he never was really on our side in the first place. Obama was really a foreign candidate - in spirit, funding, and citizenship.

I’ve always hated it when the time skipped ahead an hour in the spring. It means getting up earlier after staying up later - at least until my body adjusts to the difference - but this time is more dreadful for another reason.

Imagine if I were to vote for someone simply because they were homosexual - regardless of their political views. Even worse, what if I chose them simply because they were white?

Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshiped, and said, “Naked came I out of my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return thither: the Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord.” - Job 1: 20-21
