Excerpt From "Asheville-Citizens Times"
ASHEVILLE – Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius linked the current stock market crisis to policies backed by Sen. John McCain during a campaign event for Sen. Barack Obama at a North Asheville coffee shop on Friday.
The popular Democratic governor spoke to a crowd of more than 100 just after noon at Mountain Java on Merrimon Avenue, the first of two stops in the state aimed rallying women voters in the presidential campaign.
Sebelius told enthusiastic supporters that GOP candidate McCain has vowed to sustain failed policies contributed to the nation’s economic turmoil, while Obama advocates regulations to reign in misbehavior on Wall Street.
“It isn’t just a string of bad luck that produced the tumult that we see on Wall Street,” Sebelius said. “It’s a stream of bad policy and a stream of deregulation of the financial services industry.”
Sebelius’ appearance was part of a larger push by the Obama campaign this week to shore up support among women in North Carolina.
Sen. Joe Biden visited Charlotte on Sunday, while Michelle Obama spoke in Charlotte and Greensboro earlier this week. Barack Obama is scheduled to speak in Charlotte on Sunday.
Sebelius said Obama would fight for equal pay for women and give tax breaks to middle-class families rather than large corporations.
One event attendee said she didn’t believe Obama really cares about women voters. Kathy Skerl, a former Hillary Clinton supporter now backing McCain, held up a sign during Sebelius’ speech that read, “Sweetie is a code language for sexism,” a reference to Obama’s use of that term, she said.

What the paper failed to mention: that on the bottom of the sign it said: Puma4McCain and Puma4Palin and afterwards someone came up and said to Kathy 'there were no Pumas, we were Republicans.' This is a common accusation that Pumas of "Just Say No Deal" commonly handle on an everyday basis.
Paraphrased from Kathy: 'And yes, the campaign appararently does not encourage its followers to talk to people like me because I think they are afraid we might change some minds. The campaign manager invited me to come down to his headquarters and when I said I wasn't interested he actually acted surprised. Poor little dear...quite the eqo crush, not everyone is interested.'
Today,Kathy is canvassing..Kathy says: "remember, time is short....we gotta get busy and the Obots are organized."
Kathy, Thanks for your hard work. America appreciates it.
