First of all, congratulations to Gov. Palin for making history as the GOPs first female vp candidate. We all should recognize what a step this is for the GOP and America.
However, we are losing our focus. Obamas numbers, as we have seen, go up whenever the election is about the issues. Obama and supporters alike need to get back to that. McCain cannot win if the election is about the issues and the solutions.
If this election is about personality-i.e. character- McCain will win thanks to the midwest. Obama needs to get his focus and talk about the economy, healthcare, education, and hammer away on his tax policy. As someone from the great state of Ohio, I know first hand that people will vote for the candidate who talks about job creation. Obama needs to talk about the 5 million jobs he wants to create. If he doesnt, he will lose big here.
Obama supporters...
During the primary, you talked more about character than you did about the issues. You cannot do that in the general election. Outline and explain in simple english Obamas plans for America to your friends and family. Dont go around bashing on Palins daughter, YOU WILL LOSE VOTES. Talk about the economy, job creation, and healthcare. Hammer away on those three, and youll get the votes Obama needs.
We cannot make the same mistakes of 2000 and 2004. This year HAS to be different. Obama-Biden need to win.

And Obama ran the greatest primary in recent history, so I don't know how you can find fault.
He came from a complete unknown and campaigned and organized and managed an organization that skyrocketed him past 16 other well known candidates who had been selected as the best of their best, with all thier name recognition and money machines behind them,
but thank you for your concern and you are absolutely right about Obama/Biden needs to win---
