Palin. Then she turned to the rear of the room (where the press are located) and called outshame upon the media for their attack of Palin. Followed up the comment by asking where are the 30 investigators into Ayers. A wonderful moment; hope there's a video that can be posted everywhere. BTW: McCain said Palin is tough enough to stand up to what she's been facing. PS: All this is paraphrased, as best as I can remember. :^) McCain in Scranton PA: The third question he took was from a well-spoken woman who first thanked McCain for picking Gov. Palin.

Also I must say that if we go to ELLIS ISLAND, THE MUSEUN ,LIBRARY and do a little bit of research we will happily find out that moslems had settle in usa for almost 80-90 yrs and had lived with us peacefully, and are good americans WE MUST BE PRECISE when we talk about the issue not to put eveyone in the same sack, we could hurt good people #260 murphy

I have been called a racist, as I am sure many of you have also been called. I am not. My youngest son is adopted and is of mixed race. AA, white and Japanese. He is partial to AA because he is an excellent athlete, and most are AA. We live in white suburbia outside of Philly. I chose to attend church in an AA area of the inner city so I could teach my children that their lives were not how most of humanity lives. My church was also mixed, in the Germantown area of Philly. The area is violent, drug infested and filled with the homeless. My church does outreach for all. I loved being involved and having my children involved in soup kitchens and neighborhood projects. However, a strange thing happened when I switched allegiance from Dem to McCain. My church which included everyone: drug addicts, felons, homeless, and mental patients suddenly had no room me. And now I am a racist. Fine, keep calling me a racist. Keep calling everyone a racist. Keep blaming everyone for losing in the polls. And the more you yell racist, the more people you will lose. I have been lurking for awhile, but am stepping out to chime in on the racist claim.
