McCain and Palin claim to be a change from Bush and Cheney, and they are.

Palin offers changes from Cheney: (1) Palin shoots animals, Cheney shot a friend; (2) Palin says "perhaps" to war with Russia, Cheney merely talks tough; and (3) as Palin says, she wears lipstick.

McCain has voted with Bush only 90 percent of the time, so he would be a 10 percent change.

Obama and Biden offer real change for the better: (1) better health care, not the Bush medical crisis; (2) lower taxes for 95 percent of us, no more tax-free corporate profits; (3) rebuilding our military, no more using them for unnecessary wars; (4) smart, targeted attacks on terrorists, no more killing dozens of innocent people and alienating thousands while trying to get one terrorist; and (5) letting the world know that we really believe that "all men are created equal" and that we are one nation of brothers and sisters under one God.
