President Bush will address the Republican National Convention tonight. As he prepares to pass the GOP torch to John McCain, how would you grade the eight years of the Bush administration? Tell us how you think the president has done on social issues, the economy, national security and more!
Republicans Defending Palin
Republicans are getting back to business in Minnesota. Tonight, delegates will hear from President Bush, Sen. Joe Lieberman and former Sen. Fred Thompson. Thompson’s job will be not only to boost John McCain but also to defend Sarah Palin. Is this a good idea or a mistake to discuss the media frenzy about Palin and her family?
Who Has the Experience Advantage?
Barack Obama says running for president gives him more executive experience than McCain running mate and Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin. Is he right, or is the McCain campaign right in calling that claim “laughable”?
Gustav Comes Ashore
Hurricane Gustav slammed the Louisiana Gulf coast Monday morning at Category 2 intensity. The rebuilt levees in New Orleans are being tested and water is coming over the top of them but so far no breaches have been found.
What’s the Right Republican Response to Gustav?
The first day of the Republican National Convention was scrubbed as the party tries to be sensitive to the people affected by Hurricane Gustav. Is this the right response to show there are things much more important than conventions or is the GOP running scared after Katrina?
Former DNC Chair: Joking or Tasteless…or Both?
Former Democratic Party Chairman Don Fowler is apologizing after being caught on camera saying a hurricane during the week of the Republican convention shows that God was on the side of the Democrats. What do you think? Big deal or does everyone just need to lighten up?
Obama Comes Out Swinging
After weeks of Democrats worrying that Barack Obama was unwilling to exchange punches with John McCain, Obama went right after the Republican nominee on Thursday night. Did this show the mettle that was missing? Or did Obama come across as another mud-slinging politician? Share your thoughts on the Obama speech and whether you think it makes him a solid favorite to win in November.
Republicans are Hailin’ Choice of Palin
John McCain shocked just about everyone on Friday when he named first-term Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as his running mate. It’s a choice Republicans love. Was this just the kind of shake-up McCain need to generate buzz and excitement for his campaign or is gambling on a political novice? Will she appeal to many of Hillary Clinton’s supporters? Tell what you think.
