What is really going on at those political rallies for the presidential candidates?
* Why don't we see crowds at the McCain rallies? Why don't the cameras show the people? Have you ever seen so many old white people at a gathering in recent years? Are there any minorities in the Republican Party? Any women under 90?
* According to some recent news items, Sen. Hillary Clinton raised $35 million last month. Sen. Barack Obama brought in $50 million for his campaign during the same time period. How much did John McCain and Mike Huckabee raise last month? Why won't they give us figures? Are they embarrassed because of the paltry amount they've received?
* Did you notice the other day McCain did a little backtracking on his statements about the Iraq war? He said the war would be over soon, but the insurgency would last for years. If he were elected President, would he keep U.S. forces in Iraq because of the continuing insurgency? Is this like President Bush's use of the word "surge" to describe what was really an "escalation" of the war?
I think we need answers to all of these questions.
