					<description><![CDATA[WSJ probably minimizes the group because the claim of 5 million members is ridiculous.  On August 17th, WSJ reported the group had &lt;a href=&quot;http://online.wsj.com/article/SB121894355972047277.html?mod=opinion_main_review_and_outlooks&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;10,000 members&lt;/a&gt;.
Likewise, &lt;strong&gt;Lady&lt;/strong&gt; Lynn Forester de Rothschild has discredited herself and made her endorsement of McCain a joke by claiming she won&#039;t vote for Obama because he&#039;s &quot;elitist.&quot;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Nick R,
I would never believe anything politicians have to say one month before the elections. That might apply to supporters too, to some extent. The polls get better and better the closer you get to elections, though...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Warren,
The little credibility you had has been lost over the last few weeks. You&#039;ve definitely come across as nothing but a partisan hack. All reason, logic, and commitment to objectivity have been thrown out the window the last few weeks. But hey, with politics the ends justifies the means doesn&#039;t it?
Tell me, how do you feel about stirring up bigotry and hatred against a presidential candidate? Palin&#039;s speeches are inciting people to violent speech and threats (&quot;kill him&quot;, &quot;treason&quot;) and she doesn&#039;t speak out against such speech, whether at that time or later. She just ignores it and continues her slander. (So Christian, unfortunately). This is so reminiscent of the right-wing preachers who speak slanderously of gays and then refuse to acknowledge that their speeches have incited others to violence, whether directly or indirectly. With the death of Matthew Shepard now 10 years ago this week, one would hope that right-wing &quot;religious&quot; leaders would pause to consider how their speeches incite others to violence. But no, they continue to slander, to lie, and to deceive. After all, the ends justifies the means - isn&#039;t that in the Bible somewhere?
You&#039;ve lost the little credibility you have with your biased promotion of one political party over another. Let&#039;s face it - they all lie, they all deceive. So when you only point out the follies of one party, you lose credibility.]]></description>
