Amekubali kwa sababu alisema kuwa yeye yupo open to DC if needed, na amekwenda kwa mwaliko wa Bush na sio McCain japo nothing will take place on the bill is the photo opportunity for McCain. Na Obama kawaweza hasa wao walijua atakataa ili wapate political talking point. Yaani mwaka huu GOP wamefunikwa kwenye mtungi hawafurukuti hata kidogo - Kila angle ni tight. Hahahahaha Babu yako anajuta kuwa GOP Nominee, anomba ata angekuwa independent. He can't run away from this mess.
 

Haya bana naona sasa wewe umekuwa msomaji wa mawazo na hisia za watu. Kwa hilo sitabishana na wewe.
 
Lakini tuache ushabiki na partisanship pembeni....Hivi ina maana McCain hana hata watu wanaomuambia ukweli? I used to love McCain..the real Maverick. Lakini amebadilika sijui Bush alimpa nini maskini. The guy (McCain) use to be a hard nose. Akaanza ku folter..mara leo yuko kwa Rev. Falwell (alishafariki), mara he's voting with Bush 98%...mara kampeni yake ikawa hijacked na Bush's operatives -- Karl Rove one of them..they guy he hates the most. He was not liked by the far right wing nut jobs kama vile Rush, Sean Hannity, Ann Coulter (gosh she needs some meats in those bones)..lakini sasa hivi ni vipenzi
What happened to the real McCain???
 

You saw the real McCain yesterday. He put his country first and suspended his political campaign. He put his country first when he was the only one who supported the surge, and look what's happening now. He has always said, he'd rather lose an election than see his country go down the drains.
 


He's the one who goes down now, by put the campaign first.

Perfect example mkuu.
Ina maana siku ile Tom Brady alivyoumia mguu..Coach Belichick angeahirisha game? Hapana..game haiku ahirishwa kwa sababu team ina quarterback wengine..japokuwa sio wazuri kama Brady. Nina maana gani?
McCain's campaign second string quarterback ni Sarah Palin. Sioni kwa nini huyu mama asiachiwe a take over wakati McCain ana shake hand na kupiga picha Washington. What do you think?
 

Ahahahahahaaaa....absolutely!! I don't mind having our number 2 debate your number 1.

Hold on...not so fast Nyani......I didn't say "DEBATE"...I said your # 2 could take charge of the campaign and your #1 should still debate our # 1.
For Truth sake Nyani...your # 2 can not answer Katie Couric despite all the coaching..is she gonna fair well even with Biden?
 


Hapa utakuwa umetoa point za juu ya meza kwa Nyani. Ulitakiwa useme, atake over campaign events kama anavyofanya Biden, wakati Babu yake anapiga picha za "Matangazo ya uongo WH"
 
Hostede...Nyani ni mbishi kwa hiyo I have to go slow with him and digest every thought in great details. Hiyo strategy ya matangazo ya uongo wao wanaona ina work..it did work in 2000 and it worked in 2004 why change it?
 
Obama says leaders need to 'come together' to solve economic woes
Last Updated: Thursday, September 25, 2008 | 1:02 PM ET


U.S. Democratic candidate Barack Obama says a presidential debate set for Friday should proceed because Americans have a right to know how the next administration will lead the country out of its grave financial problems.

Obama and Republican presidential candidate John McCain were set to debate on Friday, but McCain has said he will not take part unless a plan is in place to solve U.S. economic woes.

McCain officially suspended his campaign Thursday.

Obama said leadership is needed now. Americans go to the polls on Nov. 4.

"Our election is in 40 days, our economy is in crisis, our nation is fighting two wars abroad," Obama said, speaking via satellite from Clearwater, Fla., to the Clinton Global Initiative for Climate Change in New York City.

"The American people, I believe, deserve to hear directly from myself and Senator McCain about how we intend to lead our country. The times are too serious to put our campaigns on hold or to ignore the full range of issues that the next president will face."

Obama said "now is the time to come together" for the benefit of all Americans. He said he has no intention of suspending his campaign.

Obama made the comments before he left Florida for Washington, where he is scheduled to meet with U.S. President George W. Bush and McCain to discuss a $700-billion bailout plan to rescue banks from risky mortgage debt.

Future of economy 'in danger': Obama
Earlier Thursday, McCain said American politicians must set their differences aside as they try to grapple with grave problems facing the economy.

"The whole future of the American economy is in danger," he said in New York City.

"If we do not act, credit will dry up with grave consequences for workers and businesses across the American economy and beyond. People will no longer be able to buy homes. Their life savings will be at stake. Businesses will not have enough money to pay their employees."

McCain said he hopes the Bush administration and U.S. Congress can reach consensus on the bailout plan before markets open on Monday.

McCain said he officially suspended his campaign for now because he cannot proceed when there is so much at stake, given the fragility of the economy.

"I cannot carry on a campaign as though this dangerous situation had not occurred or as though a solution were at hand, which it clearly is not," he said.

Bush says plan needed to avoid economic pain
Bush called for the meeting with Obama and McCain in a nationally televised speech Wednesday night, where he warned that Washington's failure to pass the plan could cause "a long and painful recession.

"There is no question there are a lot of people who are opposed to aspects of it, but it's hard to find anybody who is prepared to vote directly down against the package itself," said the CBC's Henry Champ from Washington on Thursday morning.

"So this meeting ought to be the kind of dam breaker that is necessary."

The plan has met with opposition from Republican and Democrat congressional leaders, as well as their constituents, over its high cost. Many congressional leaders have also called for government oversight of the distribution of the package.

But the administration has cleared a major sticking point by agreeing to limit pay packages to the executives of the failing companies.

Among the issues still to be worked out is how to phase in the cost of the plan, whose implementation the future president will have to oversee after he is elected.

But some lawmakers on Capitol Hill, including Senate majority leader Harry Reid, have said it isn't necessary for Obama and McCain to get involved in the negotiations, reported Champ.

"It must be pointed out that neither Obama or McCain are on any of the relevant committees that would be dealing with this," said Champ.

Both Obama and McCain agreed Wednesday to attend the meeting, and in a joint statement called for a bipartisan approach in the crisis.

"This is a time to rise above politics for the good of the country," said the statement.

"We cannot risk an economic catastrophe. Now is our chance to come together to prove that Washington is once again capable of leading this country."

Friday's debate, the first of three, was scheduled to take place at the University of Mississippi in Oxford.
 

And Biden can't stop himself from babbling inaccurate facts.....during the Great Depression there was no TV and the President was not FDR.
Hivi Kisura angesema hivyo si ndo angejimaliza kabisa...maana mgemrukia kaa Simba mwenye njaa anavyorukia Pundamilia...

Yaani sasa hivi Biden ni gaffe kila siku....mpaka watu tumekuwa desensitized!!! Mimi sishtuki tena akitoa gaffe.

Ndio maana jana nilisema kuwa polls don't mean anything...People say one thing and they do another. This race is so tight...na McCain better pray kwamba hii issue ya uchumi ife mara moja. Should there be another collapse of an investment bank au Dow ikawa unstable next month. He's done. Economy is not his forte.
 

Well, rafiki yako (Susu) ali clown jana baada ya kuona poll ya FOX
 

Nyani is pulling your leg, ye mwenywe anajua hizi polls zinatuzingua tu. But I think that we have to continue to work as if we are down 10 points.
Babu anazidi kuchemka na majority of people saw his campaign suspension as political ploy. Na ndo wametangaza Congress kwamba wameshakubaliana, this is an old story. Na sasa tuone kama kesho Babu ataendelea kususa. Na hata CNN wamesema wataonyesha live. Watu wamesha-invest in this. No going back. I hope someone told Babu that Nov 4th elections are still on, asije akaomba time-out Nov 3!!! Kwikwikwiiiii!
