“We’re happy being the underdogs.”

This was your comment made during the first part of an interview that aired on Hannity and Colmes (Fox News Network) last night and echoed by running mate for VP, Governor Sara Palin. What??????????

Senator McCain and Governor Palin, this isn’t the Super Bowl. You can’t sit back and hope that your opponent’s photo shows up on the cover of the Super Bowl issue of Sports Illustrated, the superstitious curse.

It is now time to get in the game. The last presidential debate was a yawner. Senator Obama came out and did what Obama does well. He didn’t address anything with specificity, kept cool and collected – almost cold and kept tying McCain to President Bush but was very articulate.

Senator McCain seemed almost distracted. He started making notes the minute he reached his seat, seemed agitated at times and stuttered through a few of his comments.

When they were presented with questions about the financial crisis facing this nation, neither had a quality answer. McCain unveiled his new mortgage plan but had no real details. Are these two candidates so far removed from reality because of their wealth that they really don’t understand what the average American faces? Why has neither one of these candidates echoed the anger of Americans and made it a point to go head hunting for those responsible.

The reasons are very different. Obama won’t go there because too many of those responsible are close personal friends and Dems. McCain won’t go there because the Dems have labeled him unstable, argumentative and angry. McCain doesn’t want those labels and tries to show himself outside of that light.

Senator McCain, get angry! Take the gloves off and show America just how much you care about their financial future. You have two very experienced individuals at your disposal who, I’m sure, would be pleased and honored to accept cabinet appointments even prior to your election as President. Fill the positions of Attorney General and Treasury Secretary now!

Appointing Rudy Giuliani as your Attorney General with his extensive legal experience and as a US Attorney would be the right choice. Mitt Romney has a proven record of fiscal financial responsibility and would be a perfect appointment as your Treasury Secretary.

Senator McCain, start action now towards finding and prosecuting those who are responsible for this financial crisis. Let the American people know that you mean business. Make the promise to Americans that you will get to the bottom of the corruption, put a stop to it and put the perpetrators where they belong, BEHIND BARS! We have already seen that the corruption has not stopped. Shortly after AIG’s 80 billion dollar handout, their executives spend almost half a million for a vacation (bonus based). Then, they come back and request another 37 plus billion. How is this benefitting the American people? Bonuses? AIG is in the tank and they are still handing out bonuses at taxpayer’s expense. Corruption is alive and well on Wall St.

Senator McCain, the gloves come off now. It’s time to get into this game to win. Only in sports does the underdog get the kind of support from the fans that you are looking for. NOW is the time for fighting for what is right. It’s time to stand up and get in the face of the opponent, not to belittle or slander him, but to show the American people his true colors.

Senator McCain, we can’t afford an Obama presidency!
