		<description>Its damn official now: If McCain is elected, he will be Bush the third.

That&#039;d be a sad day if lobbyists become more powerful in Washington under President  McCain. Can the word &#039;hypocritic&#039; apply to Sen. McCain?</description>

		<description>Hasn&#039;t McSenile said that he doesn&#039;t have lobbyists on his campaign team and hasn&#039;t been influenced by them? That&#039;s a nice joke there Johnny Boy. You&#039;re just the next handpicked puppet to keep the fleecing and selling off of America alive and well until its dead and gone. I guess maybe you&#039;ll soon be buying a compound in Paraguay?</description>
