Of the four candidates, I'm starting to think Palin is the one I trust the most as President.

Can you provide me the link, plese to your quoted statement that Ayers and Obama traveled together last year, gave speeches together and Obama contributed to Ayers? I asked nicely for that. You did not state it as a hypothetical but as a fact.

Thanks,

Re: "... he won't even admit that he was wrong about the surge."

Pretty sure I head him say more then once words to the effect that 'the surge had succeeded much more then he'd ever expected'... heard that a couple of times, in interviews and in the first debate.

(Still... no one really expects McCain, either, to go around repeating his pre-war or pre-occupation predictions that the 'American victory would be cheap and easy', and that 'oil revenues from Iraq would pay for it' and that 'there was not a history of Sunnis and Shia fighting each other', or that 'Saddam was likely behind the 9-11 attacks'....)

Naturally enough --- with both candidates trying to shape public perceptions and win an election --- NEITHER ONE is going to pull out all of their less sterling efforts at prognostication and parade them around in public much.

Just ain't normal for pols to act like that.

(Wouldn't expect Sarah to repeat that line from *her debate* either that 'our troop level is now down lower then it was pre-surge'... since so many people have pointed out that that ain't so, either.)

Just ain't normal for politicians to stress their flubs. :-)
