A call for change, but more of the same
"After ten years as a prominent Chicago politician and in his first year in the Senate, Obama got a $1.32 million loan below market rates without paying the normal extra fees — a rate which saved him $300 per month on his mortgage. Obama managed to do this despite the extraordinarily large mortgage and his lack of history with the lender"
Can you say sweetheart deal?
Joe Biden for VP... quintessential Washington insider
His association with Antoin Rezko for 18 years... on trial in Federal corruption court for demanding kickbacks for doing business with the Illinois governor and in another case on trial for shaking down a Hollywood producer to the tune of $1.5 million for a political donation to the same governor.
His association for years as a parishioner and desciple and friend of the racist Reverend Wright...
Obama is nothing about change.
Oh wait, he is. He wants to talk to the terrorists and open up a dialogue. So I guess when he asks Iran to play nice and stop building nuclear bombs they will see the error of their ways and acquiesce? And when he outlaws guns here in this country all the thugs and gang members will turn their guns in and we will sleep better?
Drink your Koolaid libs..

I'm too tired to take apart your slop piece by pathetic piece, Paranoid Jane, so I'll make it easy on you: Cite one credible source where Obama says he's outlawing guns? Just one.
ask her hometown if she's ready to govern the homeland

Alright then, let's take a look at what Palin did while in public office.
Sarah Palin left the finances of her town Wasilla in tatters when she moved on in 2002. She wanted a legacy as mayor, it seems, and pushed hard for the town to build a hyper-expensive sports complex. But Palin screwed the process up badly. Instead of buying the land for the complex when it was offered, her administration allowed a developer named Gary Lundgren to snap it up. Then Wasilla tried to seize the land from Lundgren through eminent domain. In the end, what with court costs Wasilla paid at least $ 1.7 million for land it could have bought for less than one tenth that sum - if the purchase had been handled properly. For this incompetence, Wasilla is still paying a steep price: higher taxes and cutbacks in services. In other words Palin is about as efficient as Michael Brown, onetime head of FEMA.

Saying that Obama has no "executive" accomplishments is a republican framing tactic. Look at Obama's accomplishments while in the US Senate. Using the word "executive" is a framing tactic to make all accomplishments as a legislator irrelevant. They are not.
