You folks noticed we haven’t heard from Ann Adams (Letters, Sept. 13) as long as Sen. Barack Hussein Obama’s poll numbers were high and had his rock star patronage. His numbers are collapsing because of a fresh-faced Washington outsider. Shouldn’t you be comparing Gov. Palin with long-time Sen. Joe Biden who said that Sen. Clinton would have been the better choice? I guess that throws "change" out the window with this do nothing senator.

Compare apples to apples not apples to oranges. This should be about Sen. McCain and not Gov. Palin. You’re so alarmed of the governor that you will try to find something negative on her. Rest Ann, Sen. Obama has already sent his lackeys to Alaska to find anything negative on this woman. Wow, she built a hockey arena in her small town. Haven’t you heard that sports build character? If that’s all you can find on the most popular governor elected in modern times, well my dear, you are grasping for straws.

Have you ever received a check from the state of Washington from excess taxes paid from the governor? Folks did with this president and the governor in Alaska. With my line of work I have more executive experience than Sen. Obama. I really feel sorry for Sen. Clinton that Sen. Obama would not even conference to her regarding the VP choice. And so much for the millions she loaned her campaign. She got a whole $130,000 from Sen. Obama. Speak up women in Washington state and vote. Our state has a small chance to be a red state. Like or dislike President Bush he has kept us safe since 9/11. On another note the Dems, call all politicians by their title even though they are no longer serving. The sitting president is called Bush, George, George Bush and names that make me sick. If you can’t respect the man respect the office.
