Respect
John McCain deserves our respect no matter what party you are affiliated with. There are very few people that have made the sacrifices this man has made for his country. I remember a time not so long ago when he was hailed by liberals and a thorn in the sides of conservative Republicans. Now, because he happens to be running for president against a well-spoken, cult-like, black candidate he is reviled by democrats as much as any republican ever was. There was a time he was seen as bi-partisan and one of the few in Congress who truly tried to work across party lines. Now, the Obama camp is basing their campaign on trying to convince voters he would be just a replica of George Bush. Guess what people...McCain was not the first choice of many republicans because he wasn't conservative enough..because he wasn't enough like Reagan and Bush. Romney dropped out too soon and by the time Huckabee started to gain ground most republicans had given up and didn't even vote in the primaries believing the media when they reported that nobody else really had a chance.
The Obamas' lives, while interesting, ambitious and commendable can't hold a candle to the lives Cindy and John McCain have led. They have something the Obamas do not. A long history of proven sacrifice for their country and others. For that reason alone they deserve our respect.

"There's no reason not to respect her and I believe she's qualifed to be the Vice-President"- Joe Biden (9-2-08)
* With her years of executive experience and many accomplishments for the people of Alaska, Governor Sarah Palin is more prepared than Barack Obama to be President of the United States. She's made decisions, taken action, and faced accountability.
* When Barack Obama was a community organizer, Governor Palin was serving as a local chief executive.
* When Barack Obama was voting present 130 times on the most contentious issues of the day, Governor Palin was taking on corruption within her own party and stood up to the special interests, lobbyists, big oil companies and good-old boy network.
* When Barack Obama was voting with the Democrats 97% of the time, Governor Palin was standing up to members of her own party and passed a landmark ethics reform bill.
* When Barack Obama was requesting nearly $1 billion in earmark spending, Governor Palin was championing reform to end the abuses of wasteful earmark spending. She put a stop to the "Bridge to Nowhere" that would have cost taxpayers $400 million.
* Governor Palin has a record of accomplishment that Barack Obama simply doesn't have. She has spent her time in office shaking up government in Alaska. Barack Obama has only passed one bill as the lead sponsor.
* Governor Palin is an energy expert. She is the chair of the Interstate Oil and Gas Compact Commission, a multi-state government agency that promotes the conservation and efficient recovery of domestic oil and natural gas recourses. She also served as Chairwoman of the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission overseeing energy development on state lands in Alaska.
* Governor Palin is a tough executive who has demonstrated during her time in office that she is ready to be president. She has brought Republicans and Democrats together within her Administration and has seen approval ratings of over 80 percent.
