It's over--Barack Obama is the Democratic nominee for president. Now the media finally gets to turn its guns towards John McCain--someone they actually hate (as opposed to the sudden fake hatred they had for Hillary Clinton). Glenn goes over some of Obama's victory speech, which seemed to have many of those socialist 'shared prosperity' ideas tossed in there. And people were cheering. Obama also said it was America's time, and that in an Obama administration 'the oceans would recede' . . . He can change the tide too? This guy is good! Read the transcript. (Insiders listen here).
McCain pros & cons
Now that the Dems have chosen their candidate, conservatives have to decide whether or not they are going to suck it up and fully back McCain--even though he isn't the most conservative Republican who started campaigning on the GOP side---or just disengage and vote 3rd party. Glenn decided to hash out on air a pros and cons list of Senator McCain, because Glenn strongly feels you should be voting for a candidate not against another one. Read the transcript. (Insiders listen here).
If you'd like to help create the final pros and cons list that Glenn will present tomorrow, use the form on this page to send us a brief email with a few of your pros and cons for McCain. We'll tally the results for tomorrow's radio program.
Poll
We started this poll back on Super Tuesday (geez, remember that day?) when it became apparent that John McCain had clinched the nomination. How do you feel about McCain now that you see he's up against THE most liberal senator in the Senate? Take the poll here.
