Palin and McCain together in Virginia

Palin and McCain arrived at Virginia Beach October 13th. Together they tackled mainly economic issues such as how the $700 bailout isn't working, and how Obama does not know how to fix the economy. It seems that although the pair are always ready to bash Obama, they rarely if ever put forward their own plans.

Afterward, Palin continued on to Richmond, where she continued to bash Obama. As one conservative said,

"Its time to get tough. McCain is a gentleman and that's part of the problem. He doesn't want to get in there bloody somebody's nose verbally, and that's what he needs to do."


If McCain in fact lacks in the ability to "bloody somebody's nose verbally," then Palin sure makes up for it.

"Now America, doggonit, unfortunately we are deep in debt," she said. "Barrack Obama would make us even deeper in debt; we've got to reverse this.
You just have to love the fact that she said doggonit! Palin is expected to continue her campaign in West Chester, Butler County (the PA one i belive). With Pennsyvania leaning towards Obama, the Republican Party will be doing all it can to gain voter support in that state, and will infact be calling 150,000 voters with autimated phone calls.

I thought it was interesting that McCain compared Obama to Hoover in the Debate last night. Hoover wanted to raise taxes to get the economy out of the recession and his policies failed and the economy fell into in the Great Depression. Does McCain think we are in the same sort of situation in the economy now?

I thought the Hoover allusion was a stretch, a ploy by McCain to try to scare off voters who don't understand Obama's tax proposal.

In response to the blog, maybe the scariest thing to think about is Palin economics.Recall Palin's response to Katie Couric's question about the financial bailout which somehow branched off to healthcare and trade. I shudder to think how she would handle the economy...
