		<description>Actually, I thought the Columbus Dispatch&#039;s endorsement was a little better.   &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.dispatch.com/live/content/editorials/stories/2008/10/19/bikepath2.ART_ART_10-19-08_G4_GUBKEGH.html?sid=101&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://www.dispatch.com/live/content/editorials...&lt;/a&gt;</description>

		<description>And now let&#039;s take a look at Johnny&#039;s &quot;association&quot; with G. Gordon Liddy!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/chi-oped0504chapmanmay04%2C0%2C6238795.column&quot;&gt;http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/chi-...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;...Last November, McCain went on his radio show. Liddy greeted him as &quot;an old friend,&quot; and McCain sounded like one. &quot;I&#039;m proud of you, I&#039;m proud of your family,&quot; he gushed. &quot;It&#039;s always a pleasure for me to come on your program, Gordon, and congratulations on your continued success and adherence to the principles and philosophies that keep our nation great.&quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Liddy, on Vietnam:    &quot;I wanted to bomb the Red River dykes [sic]. It would have drowned half the country and starved the other half. There would have been no way the Viet Cong could have operated if we had the will-power to do that.&quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Liddy, advising Branch Davidians how to defend themselves from ATF agents during a radio show:&lt;br&gt;&quot;If the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms insists upon a firefight, give them a firefight. Just remember, they&#039;re wearing flak jackets and you&#039;re better off shooting for the head.&quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Liddy, on the impact Adolf Hitler had on him as a child:  When he listened to Hitler on the radio, it &quot;made me feel a strength inside I had never known before,&quot; he explains. &quot;Hitler&#039;s sheer animal confidence and power of will [entranced me]. He sent an electric current through my body.&quot;</description>

		<description>Obama has so many bizarre associates that Ayers and Wright are just the tip of the iceberg.  One does have to wonder about why these types gravitate to him?  Biden has just perhaps inadvertantly revealed more significant reasons to have qualms about voting for Obama: &lt;a href=&quot;http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalradar/2008/10/biden-to-suppor.html&quot;&gt;http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalradar/2008/10...&lt;/a&gt;</description>

		<description>What a hilarious editorial!  After reading it I&#039;m expecting a &quot;just kidding!&quot; at the end!  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; &quot;McCain&#039;s character, on the other hand, has been one of working closely with those who would build America up - not tear her down.&quot;     Seriously????????????????</description>
