		<description>This is something you need to think about if you are planning to vote for the McCain/Palin ticket.  Do you think McCain cares about the average American? – Think again! In 26 years John McCain voted against increasing the minimum wage 18 times.&lt;br&gt;In the same 26 years he voted for tax breaks for the wealthiest 2% of America 27 times. Why should that matter to you? McCain believes in a trickle down economy. You know if the wealthy get wealthier they will share with you. Obama believes in a trickle up economy, higher salaries for workingmen and women. When they earn more money they are able buy or keep homes, resulting in more employment in building trades. They buy clothes for their children, resulting in more Wal-Mart and GAP jobs. They will purchase new trucks and cars that will keep auto workers employed. Now what is better for this nation a trickle down economy or a trickle up economy?  This republican is voting for Obama because we have tried a trickle down economy for eight years and look where this nation is now! Could it get any worse with Obama/Biden? &lt;br&gt;The old John McCain before he developed Alzheimer’s:  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHoXkCprdL4&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHoXkCprdL4&lt;/a&gt;</description>

		<description>[...] I received my absentee ballot from John McCain just last week (see photo of the mailer) and although I called to verify that unsolicited ballots were legal, I’d never looked at an absentee ballot before in my life, so I had no idea of the problems being caused across the country by McCain’s absentee ballot forms. This is all looking very reminiscent of the Rovian tactics used during the 2000 and 2004 presidential elections. [...]</description>

		<description>Thanks.  I can&#039;t get the audio to work.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I run the National Political Do Not Contact Registry, any time you get a robo call I&#039;d love to know about it and post on my website and blog.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As I testified at the US. Senate these calls are an epidemic and are invading the privacy of All American Voters.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Our members are taking a stand and saying enough is enough at the National Political Do Not Contact Registry at &lt;a href=&quot;http://StopPoliticalCalls.org&quot;&gt;StopPoliticalCalls.org&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Here is a quote from a member recently:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&quot;I&#039;m a shift worker, working variable shifts.  I depend on my sleep to be able to do my job safely and efficiently.  I&#039;m a locomotive engineer.  Imagine the disaster were I to fall asleep, operating a freight train carrying hazardous materials in your neighborhood, due to fatigue from being awoken in my middle of the night on a continuous basis during election season.  Please stop..&quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Regards,&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Shaun Dakin&lt;br&gt;CEO and Founder&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.stoppoliticalcalls.org&quot;&gt;http://www.stoppoliticalcalls.org&lt;/a&gt;</description>
