Obama’s ‘Change’ Slogan Gets a Change

HOw fortunate you Americans are to have such a gifted candidate.
After 8 years of Bush, I thought America was doomed. Of course, you could still elect Mc Cain. And then, it will be curtains. And you will deserve what you get.

MCCAIN WOULD RATHER LOSE HIS INTEGRITY THAN LOSE AN ELECTION!!

McCain would rather lose his integrity than lose an election!!

I would rather lose integrity than lose election!

I would rather lose integrity than lose election!

Can I just comment on how ridiculous this call for change is? You want change? No way, I was the first person to call for change. Your change is fake! My change is real! I am glad you want change too, but it doesn’t count!
I have to laugh when he says “But let’s be absolutely clear about what change means – change isn’t just a word.”
And then he proceeds to not describe what change means.

Do you believe the SUDDEN ‘change’ coming out from the mouth of the person that sitting in the church listening to Rev. Wright for more than 20 years?
Do you believe the SUDDEN ‘change’ coming out from the mouth of the person who voted ‘present’ for more than 130 bills?

I would rather lose integrity than lose election!

“Change” as Obama has been inspired by is not the “change” McCain/Palin speak of.
Here are the roots to Obama’s change, straight from yet another “mentor” in Chicago. Funny, if you google Obama Sal Alinsky, you also find Hillary there as well.
This, from an article from the UK Spectator, Melanie Philips explains the concept:
This prompted the Obama campaign to issue a pained defence of community organisation as a way of promoting social change ‘from the bottom up’. The impression is that community organising is a worthy if woolly and ultimately ineffectual grassroots activity. This is to miss something of the greatest importance: that in the world of Barack Obama, community organisers are a key strategy in a different game altogether; and the name of that game is revolutionary Marxism.
The seditious role of the community organiser was developed by an extreme left intellectual called Saul Alinsky. He was a radical Chicago activist who, by the time he died in 1972, had had a profound influence on the highest levels of the Democratic party. Alinsky was a ‘transformational Marxist’ in the mould of Antonio Gramsci, who promoted the strategy of a ‘long march through the institutions’ by capturing the culture and turning it inside out as the most effective means of overturning western society. In similar vein, Alinsky condemned the New Left for alienating the general public by its demonstrations and outlandish appearance. The revolution had to be carried out through stealth and deception. Its proponents had to cultivate an image of centrism and pragmatism. A master of infiltration, Alinsky wooed Chicago mobsters and Wall Street financiers alike. And successive Democratic politicians fell under his spell.
His creed was set out in his book ‘Rules for Radicals’ – a book he dedicated to Lucifer, whom he called the ‘first radical’. It was Alinsky for whom ‘change’ was his mantra. And by ‘change’, he meant a Marxist revolution achieved by slow, incremental, Machiavellian means which turned society inside out. This had to be done through systematic deception, winning the trust of the naively idealistic middle class by using the language of morality to conceal an agenda designed to destroy it. And the way to do this, he said, was through ‘people’s organisations’.

People are starting to see through Obama. Change we cannot believing to now Change Obama needs.

The “Change We Need” is…
“Country First”…
Anybody But Obama…

I would rather lose integrity than lose election!

Has anyone notice that McCain is coping Obama. I think it’s funny that McCain is trying to copy Obama and he calls himself a person for Change when he has all Lobbyist on his staff. LOL Nice swift boating McCain.

Kerry you really need to climb out of that narrow, right winged tunnel you live in and open thine eyes. Barack has stated he is a chrisian, not that that means anything good, but even if he were muslim, so what? Religion, or lack there of, should have no impact whatsoever on the presidency…SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE… the only way to do it properly. Somebody who cares

Obama: Once a Chicago gangster’s lawyer, always a Chicago gangster’s lawyer. Graft, sweetheart mortgages after sweetheart home purchases, friend of terrorists, and one of the world’s biggest liar.

Lobbyists First
Maybe Country Second!
Maybe!!

I think they should have kept “Change we can believe in” to make the point that only a fool will believe in Republican “change”.

Not Debate-Gate ABC in the tank for Obama. ARE YOU SERIOUS? That is a laugh…The McCain/Palin ticket is finally being shown for what it is a phony ticket promising change because it make popular polling. Looks like McCain would rather lose him integrity instead of the presidential campaign. He looks tired and desperate with those sleazy ads, sad to see him in such a tragic state.

Wade…I was at the rally in NH today. Obama said that change isn’t just a word…and then he went into gory detail about each issue and how he would change it. If you want the details go to his website.
What is McCain going to change? He has no specific plan for anything. His ideas are vague and non-specific. His idea of fixing the energy problem is “drill, baby, drill”. His idea of fixing education is to just give out vouchers but not to fix No Child Left Behind. His idea of fixing the unfair tax code is to give the biggest tax cuts to corporations and the wealthiest Americans. McCain’s plans are eerily similar to George W. Bush’s.

McCain is so out of touch. How can he relate to the average American? One house, one spouse. Obama/Biden 08.

the only change we need is to have Hillary run as president, obamma as vice. now that’s change we can believe in.

Hillary supporters should support McCain/Palin. If Obama wins, Hillary will not have a solid position in DEM. Obama, Kenndy and Blacks will dominate the party. Hillary will never has a chance to run again!!!
Think about it!!!!!!!!!!

Liberals -
You know all that money, from oil, that’s going to our enemies? Get this: if we “DRILL BABY DRILL”, that means the money (AND JOBS) get to stay HERE! What a concept! With all those extra tax dollars that your government makes on each gallon of gas (way more than big oil by the way), we can afford to fund the welfare programs of the left (which, btw, are what has us in record deficit, not the war).

Mcain would rather win an election then be honest to the american people,And talk about the issuses and what his plans are as president instead he mudslings smears and lies really a shame what happen to the john mccain of 2000? what happen to the john mccain that said he was gonna run a clean campaign no attacking just talking about the issuses seems to be 2 john mccains but the scary question is IF HE WINS WHAT MCAIN WILL WE END UP WITH THE OLD MAVERICK OR THE NEW MCBUSH??

Where’s Biden? I haven’t seen him since he was picked by Obama as his VP. He needs to get out and do something. Come on Senator Biden help out a little. Now McCain is moving ahead on the electorial votes on the deligate map.

Hillary supporters should support McCain/Palin. If Obama wins, Hillary will not have a solid position in DEM. Obama, Kenndy and Blacks will dominate the party. Hillary will never has a chance to run again!!!
Think about it!!!!!!!!!!

The debates will the great. We will find out that Caribou Barbie is not compentent enough to be VP which goes back to McCain’s integrity. He will do anything to win this election.
Obama/Biden 08

Debra
What kind of change does mccain bring what change has he done in 26 yearsin senate as far as palin she is george w bush in a skirt with lipstick!

McCain is an embarrasement to honorable veterans everywhere. He refused to support veteran programs, but with ‘shoot em’ up’ Palin at his side we will be at war with both Iran and Russia in no time.

Marion, At least McCAIN admits, in public he would give corporations tax breaks, unlike Obama who does it “quietly”. That’s a fact, yes. Do some research on your own rather than spend time on left wing blogs parroting their talking points.
Btw, I think Americans like working for corporations. The work = JOBS. We like jobs and we would like to ATTRACT corporations BACK TO American since they left because of their 35% tax bill.
Also, food for your little brain: Ford Motor Company, that’s a US company is doing great abroad and has a car that gets 65mpg. We cannot have that car in the US because of government regulation. Hmmm. GM is doing GREAT abroad too!

Kerry your plot is about two weeks too late. President Clinton and Obama met in New York on 9/11. They are both campaigning for Obama. Try talking about Caribou Barbie instead.

Kerry
Bill and Hill will not let theirselves get hijacked by anyone did you ever stop to think obama will maybe make hillary sec of state or maybe supreme court justice if bill and hill didnt want to campaign for him they wouldnt the clintons are noones puppydogs THE CLINTONS WANT A DEMOCRAT IN THE HOUSE BECAUSE HILLARY WILL BE THERE AS WELL!

Monarchland:
OBAMA supporters is living in the image world. Hill and Bill know Obama will lose, sure they will just play to come out to support OSAMA. Do you know Hill did not attack Palin?

I recently sent a suggestion to the Obama campaign for a new slogan. Although they didn’t adopt it, here it is for your thumbs up or down.
4 more of the last 8? You decide!
Vote Obama/Biden!

angie:
Sec of state? You are joke, that is Rice’s work. Hill will become the president of US in 2012!!!!

kerry
is it his name or his color???

Obama, here is a little lesson for you.
Just because you talked about change first doesn’t necessarily means you stand for change.
You didn’t change Chigago politics, which is the most corrupt one in America. You are the most liberal senator, according to your voting record. You chose Biden as your running mate, whose son is a lobbyist. You don’t represent change, so stop acting like one.
Action speaks louder than words

Just like McCain supporters are living in la-la land if they think a guy who has been around Washington for almost 30 years will bring one bit of change. McCain switched strategy because ‘Change” is polling well this cycle. Just like he picked Palin because she would poll well. Old man McCain will say or do anything to win.

WHAT IS MCCAINS NEW CHANGE ALL ABOUT SINCE HE STARTED COPYING OFF OBAMA CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT HIS CHANGE IS ABOUT??

HaHa… Now I hope McCain takes “change we need” and uses that too. This is awesome. Instead of sounding like bush, he sounds like Obama. Obama has no more identity! HAHA

I am surprised Obama supporters have not been called sexist because we don’t like Caribou Barie and her thin swiss cheese resume. Hey I used to live in Brownsville, TX on the border next to Mexico. I guess that makes me a foreign policy expert too. YAY!!!

angie:
Sec of state? You are joke, that is Rice’s work. Hill will become the president of US in 2012!!!!
I AM LAUGHING NOW, OBAMA SUPPORTERS.
IF YOU DO NOT SUPPORT A EMPTY SUIT, YOU WILL BE RACIST.
Palin is a new fresh air, OBAMA IS A DIRTY CHICAGO POLITICIAN.

McCain will send us to war…
Tax our health insurance…
Ensure that our educational system remains subpar…

How about ‘thug for president’. Bill Clinton will approve, after all he did say that Obama has the mindset of a Chicago street thug (Politico, 2008).

Why doesn’t Obama bring back his “OBAMA PRESIDENTIAL SEAL”?
While he’s at it, bring the whole Greco column stage props as well.
Obama cancelled his SNL appearance NOT because of Hurricane Ike, BUT because so many people were making fun of him… saying he needs to leave this race and become one of the cast instead.
He’s becoming one big joke.

McCain = Bush part Deux

I, the “OBAMA” voted for/againts it before i voted against/for it. Blah Blah Blah. Vote for me and I’ll set you free. Remember the Great White Hope has been replaced by the Great Black Hope. The ” O B A M A ” But; Alas….Snow White appeared and a new dawn arrived with her awakening.

seriously?! this guy feels he needs to change his slogan now?! really?! with 2 months left to go, he thinks he needs a new slogan????!!! wow…. this is getting funny now. what does he think this will accomplish besides creating confusion which will lead to a sense of desparation? thats the vibe i get from it. so i ask this question to obama suppoters on here: why do you think he did this???

angie:
obama USE THE EMARK TO INCREASE MITCHEL’S SALARY!!!

Ha! I’d like to see OBAMA get gang-tackled by Barbara Walters and Joy Behar. Oh second thought… ewwww

I know I know I know…….How about “OBAMA” CHANGE we Believe we Need Ta Dah!!!!!

obamamama…your information is false. The Tax Policy Center, a non-partisan economic group, did a comparison of the McCain and Obama tax plans and Obama’s was determined to be much better for those making less than $250,000. There are no tax cuts for corporations in Obama’s plan. And if you want to believe in the trickle down theory go right ahead. It can also be argued that if the American people are better educated, they can compete better in the global economy, then they can make more money, and buy more things. And yes, the American car companies are doing great abroad because they pay people poorly in other countries. They don’t have to worry about regulations that might keep workers safe or pay them a fair wage.
And deregulation did wonders for the energy(Enron)and finance (Fannie May/Freddie Mac) companies didn’t it?
So continue to spread your lies, I’m sure some people will believe them, but that doesn’t make them true.

Obama was on The View which is in the tank for BO like ABC and the women were swooning and giggling and acting like silly school girls. Yesterday the old hags had their fangs out. It was laughable and pretty disgusting. I won’t watch anymore the always biased crap or (ABC).
McCAIN/PALIN ALL THE WAY.
Gov. Palin SHOULD NOT go on The View….they are dying to chew her up.

Barack “shape-shifter” Obama confessed that rescinding President Bush’s tax cuts or raising new taxes will hurt the economy. (Associated press, 2008) He has amazingly shape-shifted into a tax cutting republican, but don’t hold your breath, in a second he will shape-shift into something new. The new slogan should be “Now you see me, now you dont”.

the view?! who would actually watch the view for political insight?! may as well turn on oprah, her and michael moore can give yoyu the facts about healthcare.. lol

Debra-
what do you look like? Really, ‘cuz right now I’m imagining an old hag with stingy gray hair, always in an old woman’s robe with no social life and very bitter.

Stop, Tammy.. you’re turning me on

Apparently, the “change we need” is mocking a man for being unable to type because of injuries from being tortured in Vietnam.
Oh, sure, the Obama campaign didn’t intend to do so when they made the ad. But it’s still linked to from the front page of their website right now, most of a day since the Drudge Report carried the story. Every minute the ad is left up now is a minute the Obama campaign is knowingly mocking McCain for injuries he suffered under torture as a POW.
It’s utterly despicable, and Barack Obama approved of that message.

obamamama (sic):
Thank God for the google, which led to this:
“A user has been editing the page to say that “Rules for Radicals” was dedicated to Lucifer. This is not true. Please give a citation if you’re going to make such claims. The book is dedicated to “Irene.”
71.221.89.250 05:16, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
On the following page there is a jesting reference to “Lucifer,” but to call this a dedication is to take it entirely out of context. Alinsky was known to be a character, even once suggesting a rally where everyone ate lots of baked beans and went into an Opera House for the rich. He called it a “fart-in.” Although some might call this “confrontational,” it’s actually quite funny. Laughter has quite a cleansing effect on the soul. On the same page with the Lucifer jest there are also quotes from Thomas Paine and Rabbi Hillel.”
As a proud “community organizer” myself, not just with the Obama campaign but also a long history with Vietnam Veterans and otherissues you conservatives scoff about, I detest your rant against organizing from the bottom up, though I do realize this is a foreign concept to you Repugnants.
In spite of conservative whining to the contrary, Jesus WAS a community organizer, and the work he did 2000+ years ago is certainly a model to look up to. Of course, most of the “evangelicals” (sic) would likely be thrilled if the bible stopped with the old testament.
The bottom line continues to be the question of whether we as a nation can afford four more years of what we’ve experienced over the last eight years. To me, the clear answer is “Heck NO!!!
No Way, No HOW, NO McSAME!
Obama/Biden 08

Jack – Jesus was not a community organizer. He was a lawyer. That’s why he is an “advocate” for your sins.
He did not “organize the community.” The Pharisees did. That was their job. Now what?

Baracks close friend Bill Ayers (politico, 2008) once said, “Kill all the rich people. Break up their cars and apartments. Bring the revolution home, Kill your parents.” Then on 9/11 he went on to say, “I don’t regret setting bombs, I feel we didn’t do enough.” (New York Times, September 11, 2001). In the 1990s, Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn introduced barrack obama to “neighbors” during his first run for the Illinois Senate. Obama’s association with unsavory characters is extremely troubling. Barack of president? No bloody way!!
Country first, McCain/Palin 08

ahhhh i believe it was the great tom petty who sang “the waiting is the hardest part”… obama fans??? where are you??!! you will sit and attack but no answers for me yet…WHY DO YOU THINK HE NEEDED TO CHANGE HIS SLOGAN???!!!

tommy-
Sean hannity is a wimp and a racist fat as- who hides behind a self-proclaimed “you’re a great american” slogan that means nothing when the sh-t he says is so extremely divisive and hateful.
Anyway, Obama proved himself against O’Reilly…much more tougher and crazier.

obama proved himself to oreilly?! depends who you ask i guess..

yeah, i also give credit to obam for going on, but he didnt say anything impressive. pretty much a stale mate. and orielly wasnt that tough on him either.

man, i never would have guessed. ive been on here for about a half hour, and have asked 4 times to get a reply from obama supporters on a simple question: why they thought obama changed his slogan. not ONE reply… nevr would have guessed… lol ill give you the answer: desperation.

Do you believe the SUDDEN ‘change’ coming out from the mouth of the person who voted ‘present’ for more than 130 bills?
——————–
Yes! Much more so than the Senator who woted ABSENT over 35% of the time.
More so than the Senator who “in good conscience” couldn’t support tax cuts for the rich, but now that he’s a candidate, thinks they’re a great idea.
More so than the guy who has:
“..agreed with President Bush far more than I have disagreed. And on the transcendent issues, the most important issues of our day, I’ve been totally in agreement and support of President Bush.”
McCain’s Meet the Press Interview
One candidate wants to change Washington. The other only wants to change your memory of his record!
OBAMA 08!

I replied to you tim, what…you can’t read?!
WE NEED intelligent AND educated leaders, not deceitful liars.

John McCain is no patriot.
John McCain is a deceitful liar.

tommy…
yeah, you have a point. i just cant believe he didnt feel it would just make him look foolish and unsure. i mean, his nubers are starting to slide, so it makes him look desperate to try all he can. its just confusing and wasnt at all necessary.

LA…
i saw you’re answer. the only one with the balls to answer such a silly question, but your answer had no bearing on the question… lol

As a veteran, it is disappointing watching McSame spit out lie after lie after lie.
It is also disappointing watching know nothing Palin spit out lie after lie after lie.
They attempted to co-opt the Obama/Biden theme, but the theme that is really catching on is McSame and Dogsled Barbie’s, Lies Come First!
WE NEED HONEST AND INTELLIGENT LEADERSHIP – Obama/Biden 08

what lies are you refferring to la???

LA in indiana: Yeah, you’re a little bit rabid for my taste.
Here’s the read deal: McCain is cool. Not hip cool, but cool. He’s afraid of nothing. Not The View, not Obama, not Putin, nothing. He’s Chuck Norris. He rules.
Obama is interesting. He has ideas but can’t articulate them. He’s afraid of his wife, public opinion, and Mayor Daley. I don’t like that. He’s getting tougher but it doesn’t suit him. His ideas aren’t developed enough which makes him sound idiotic. Too bad.
Palin. I like her. She has charm and she’s a tough little rabbit. Can’t look away. Time bomb. But I think she loves her country. Very important. Did she lie? Don’t know. I think she’s trying to put on a face for us, which is not advisable. She should remain true to herself. Still, a good politician.
Biden. Where did he go? Is he still on the ticket? lol.. jk.. Tough guy so I like him. More hotheaded than McCain makes him a liability. Smart, loyal, a good guy. Should be a Conservative but oh well.

what makes you think he is “for us” anymore than mccain is? you have to explain? do you mean he is for YOU, or us?!

tommy…
i like you man… lol

lafranzo…
you’re hilarious!!!! too funny.. lol

LaFranzo: If more liberals were like you, we could have an actual discussion on politics in America. You’re a good guy for being tough and honest.
That said, we need to be clear: McCain is not Bush. His voting record is NOT 90% with Bush, but more like 74%. It’s too bad that McCain doesn’t point this out more often, but he wants to avoid the word “Bush” altogether.
McCain would be good for us in a lot of respects. Not s ogood in others. Same with Obama. Everyone has strengths and weaknesses. But Obama’s economic policy is not mine, so no go.

tim, as a 20 yr veteran, I have seen McCain’s bs firsthand. So I’m not one of these kids you all refer to on the boards.
Obama has worked hard for the PEOPLE in this country. He has put forth bill after bill for consumer protection, Veterans, Education, Katrina Relief. McCain has worked hard to keep his Social Security and maintain his 8 homes.
I’ll shout it to the roof tops…John McCain is no patriot, he’s nothing but a disgraceful liar.

Tim at 3:07…it is being drug out too long, but if Obama had agreed to the 10 town halls that McCain has been requesting since June, we’d all know who we want to vote for….although, I’m thinking 85% of know by now.
BO has no cashews (Jessie cut them off). He runs and dodges, just ask Hillary. Needs script and prompter. He came AFTER McCain at Columbia the other night and nuanced his answers to sound like McCain’s…”best and brightest”, “serve a cause greater than yourself”…these are McCainisms.
Send this clown back to dirty Chicago politcs….from where he came.

la…
sorry man, you’re just too one sided to even talk to.

Just a bit more on liberals. If they could hold their tongue more, they would make sense. Unfortunately, libs have big mouths. They sound (and many times are) fascists who want a minority rule, or an impenetrable moral wall. They come off as hypocrites screaming about free speech as they shout you down. Look… we all have a point of view, but liberals have no monopoly on sense… or nonsense.

tommy…perfectly said.

Obama: “Change we Need”, so said Mao, Stalin and other communist reactionaries
B. Hussein Obama,if he is not happy with US “as is” should visit his father’s homeland.
Reminds me Of George Orwell satire “Animal Farm” when the pigs decide to kick out the Man.
McCain/Palin 08
We need reforms not change the whole system.

As I recall, Hillary had to re-invent herself and her slogan several times during the primary! It didn’t work!!
The product is what people buy…the packaging isn’t as important! Obama’s lack of a real message is the problem!

Tommy’s posts all make sense….and long ago I heard D-i-c-k Morris say this is McCain’s to win as a candidate, and Obama’s to win as a party….and that’s the truth.

Thank you Ricardo and all you other foreign jerks who said the US got what we deserved then. I hope whoever is elected President, he will cut all funding to all foreign countries cause the US is broke and I am sick and tired of so much of our tax dollars going to countries who don’t like us.

too much garbage to even bother responding too;; repugs must have a day off or are getting paid to work overtime – here

The racist rethug bastids are all over the boards today.

good thing im not a repug huh dmsc?!

you got it… all repugs are racists. excellent work sherlock.

McCAIN IS FOOLING THE AMERICANS CLAIMING THEY ARE THE AGENTS OF CHANGE. I THINK THAT HE IS DESPARATE.
MCCAIN/PALIN = BUSH 8YEARS FAILED POLICIES. WE ARE NOT FOOL AND CAN NOT BE FOOLED. THE AMERICANS ARE TIRED WITH THE SAME FAILED POLICIES. NOT THIS TIME, NOT THIS YEAR. NO MORE SWIFT BOAT.
MCCAIN HAS NOTHING TO OFFER.
WAKE UP PEOPLE.
“CHANGE WE NEED”
OBAMA/BIDEN ’08

mccain isnt fooling me. he just happens to be the closest thing to a conservative in the race with a shot to win. end of story. no fooling necessary.

why they thought obama changed his slogan
————–
most likely to draw attention to it. To point out that now that McCain/Palin have jumped on the “change” bandwagon, the change we NEED is not going to come from them. The only thing McCain/Pailin can change is their minds.
GOP = Gas Oil Pipelines: who’s been a buddy to the oil companies that are wanting to drill drill drill? Who’s “national security” background only means “I’ve been building pipelines?” (well, not actually started any yet, but who cares about the facts or the truth)
Having more oil pawns in the White House? SERIOUSLY? Does ANYONE not understand this is EXACTLY why we are where we are now?

apparently you liberals have tried to make “oil” and “drill” bad words huh?! i mean, considering EVERYTHING we do everyday of our lives revolve aroung this “dirty” word, i would think you would want to consider it, at the very least, a necesarry evil at this point. just for awhile till we get something else anyways, but i know, call me crazy.. lol

Why wouldn’t the weakling agree to 10 town halls? The three debates he will have notes, unlike the Faith forum which he tanked on. Obama is not a clear and direct speaker…I nod off with his answers…I would have love to see town halls with off the cuff answeres and no notes….like Bozo will have at debates. Doesn’t matter 85% of Americans know who they are voting by now and we’re not changing our minds…and the undecideds will see the strength that is McCain as POTUS. No one wants a sock puppet that has to be loved….screaming crowds and media…wishy washy flippy floppy BO.
Other countries would love a weakened U.S. with BO as Prez….love the #1 country to fall. WON’T HAPPEN WITH COUNTRY FIRST JOHN McCAIN/PALIN!

What libs fail to realize is that most of the country is conservative. Conservatives HATE war since is interferes with the economy by running up big tabs. Conservatives HATE taxes since it stops businesses from increasin wages and offering health care. Conservatives HATE wasteful spending (not every earmark is wasteful). Conservatives HATE when the three branches of government overstep their bounds. McCain talks a good game. Palin is the real deal. She isn’t perfect, and the Left hates her, but she is a Conservative. We LOVE her. No amount of lib diatribe will change that. You would have to convince us that she is a liberal before we would change our minds.

call me crazy, but i believe most of those who suppot obama, will vote for ,not him, but for their savior who wants COMPLETE government control of every aspect of our lives. but call me crazy. liberals have NO belief in personal responsibility and that is their biggest downfall.

Billw: I applaud your creativity.

When you see a campaign changing their campaign slogan you just know they’re feeling very desperate. And they should be. But it’s a stupid slogan. All Obama offers is bigger government, more government spending, higher budget deficits, higher taxes, a weaker economy, higher inflation, and a weaker military. That is not the “Change We Need”. That’s the change we need to avoid at all costs.

Tim, I would disagree that libs have no personal responsibility. They do in their daily lives but not in their public opinion. This causes them to appear as hypocrites. Look at Al Gore: he wants us to conserve and use alternative energy, yet his home is a black hole on energy use, and his many vehicles belie his stances. You may cut him a break, but you must still do that to make him look good.
Like Obama: he promises equality while he lives in the best areas of Chicago. I begrudge him no success.. now he must stop begrudging me mine.

Obama just doesn’t get it…we don’t want a socialist government that will try to control our lives. We don’t want Obama’s change!

Tim,
How is your work doing? Have the value of your home increase or decrease? Do you know that your candidate voted 90% with Bush? WOW.

The difference between a liberal and a conservative. A liberal is successful and feels guilty about it. A conservative is successful and feels blessed to help others. A conservative hates when a liberal tries to force him to help someone out of guilt.
A liberal is upset because he has not succeeded yet, and wants to point a finger. A conservative is someone who has not succeeded yet but believes that his own determination, God’s Will, and a few lucky breaks will do the trick.

To TommyF
YEA!!! Bless you and the horse you rode in on.

TommyF
OF COURSE YOU VOTED TWICE WHAT ELSE COULD I EXPECT PROM YOU??
COUNTRY FIRST RIGHT???.BUT AGAIN WICH COUNTRY??
BRIDGES ARE FALLING DOWN ON PEOPLE!!! THE GEORGIANS (U.S.A) ARE HAVING A SHORTAGE OF WATER WHAT ARE THE MEMBERS OF THE GOP GOING TO DO ABOUT THAT?? YOU WANT US TO KEEP YOUR PARTY IN CONTROL AS IF AFTER ALL THE THINGS THAT THE GOP/BUSH FAIL TO DO WHILE THEY HAD FULL POWER OVER EVERYTHING FOR AT LEAST 7 1/2 YEARS NOW.
AMERICA’S CHILDREN DOESN’T HAVE HEALTH CARE,EDUCATION, NOT EVEN SAFE TOYS TO PLAY WITH, SO WITH ALL THAT AND MORE…THE GOP AND MCLIAR ONLY HAVE ONE THING TO TELL US THAT THEY’RE PRO-LIFE.IF THATS SO TRUE THEN KEEPING OUR KIDS SAFE/MAKE SURE THAT THE TOYS MY KIDS PLAY WITH ARE SAFE.WOULD’VE BEEN ONE OF THE TOP THINGS ON THE TO DO LIST. SECOND STOP GIVING TAX BREAKS TO BUSINESS WHILE THEY TAKE JOBS AWYA FROM SINGLE MOTHERS. LOOK OUT FOR OUR JOBS THE SAME WAY YOUR LOOK OUT FOR YOUR JOB!!! AND ONE MORE THING WE AMERICANS ARE NOT LAZY NOR ARE WE STUPID I KNOW THE GOP ARE HOPING FOR US TO VOTE OUR PREJUDICES INSTEAD OF OUR INTERESTS. WELL NOT THIS TIME WE KNOW WHO’S PARTY HAS BEEN IN CHARGE OF THE COUNTRY FOR THE PAST 7 1/2 YEARS AND WE ALSO ARE AWARE OF MCLIAR’S CHANGING POSITIONS ON EVERYTHING, BUT HIS MAMA’S NAME TO GET THE PRISE AS HE PUT IT IN HIS BOOK I’LL ASK AGAIN AT WHAT PRICE??…IS HE EVEN GOING TO BE A LIVE LONG ENOUGH TO SEE AMERICAN’S YOUNG BE KILLED IN WAR WITH RUSSIA OVER GEORGIA JUST BECAUSE MCLIAR IS A PAID FRIEND WITH THE PRESIDENT OF GEORGIA??? DOES ANYBODY WAKE UP IN THE MORNING AND SAY TO THEMSELFS IF THEY WAS A THIRD WAR THAT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE SHOULD GET INVOLVE IN IT WOULD DEFINITELY HAVE TO BE OVER GEORGIA SO THAT MCLIAR CAN KEEP HIS PROMISES TO PREZ OF GEORGIA,BECAUSE IF NOTHING ELSE WE ARE ALL GEORGIANS RIGHT??.

Donis,
I think McCain has 7 or 8 houses. Do you really care? How does the number of houses McCain owns matter to you? I’m guessing that you probably have one home. That must mean that falling house values affected McCain 7 or 8 times as much as it affected you. Are you feeling sorry for him, or what?
Libs want to blame Reps for the sub-prime mortgage mess when it was really the fault of big foreign investors buying risky notes.

The problem that Obama has is the only one of McCain/Obama/Palin/Biden that has actually accomplished change is Palin.
And McCain is the only one that has done TONNES of bipartisan bills.
Obama also is in trouble because war is going well.
It is going to be hard for Obama to pull it off. But with the Lemming blacks they will vote hard for him. 10 to 1.

Steve…don’t worry. Blacks are only 14% of our population.

McCain is not in control of his campaign– his “Bush” handlers are. They chose Palin and tried to prepare her for her ABC Charlie Gibson V.P. SAT exam which she failed. McCain’s campaign kitchen cabinet is in control. Their message is out of line with Mac’s personal philosophies. He’s a pawn in his own pawn shop. The right wing, conservative, gun brandishing, neocon, religious extremist who call themselves Rush Limbaugh evangelicals are telling him what to do.
After Catwoman joined the Penguin, he receded into the background and has been placed on mute. It is so obvious. If he cannot control his campaign, how can he control the White House?
That is the question.
Obama is going to win this with Biden by his side!

how is this a story? The theme is the same, the slogan different, we’ve gone from a primary to a presidential campaign. Stop looking for the boogy man, and start reporting on some facts. The old man and his beauty queen have been flat out lying their buts off ffrom the first day of the convention. That should be a screeming headline in every paper. Not stretched the truth, but a complete 180 from the truth. Stop giving McPalin a wink and a nod.

according to today’s gallop & zogby, the shallow one is becoming a footnote in political history.
Quick lemmings! Do everything you can. Say anything you can. Anything to deflect the fact that it’s quickly becoming over and done with.

tommy..
i agree. they have a tendency to be hateful and hypocritical.
———————-
Hysterical that anyone who supports the Republican candidates can speak of hypocracy!
Taxes? “No tax cuts for the rich, well it’s ok now I guess”
Right to Chose? “yes I agree with a woman’s right to make choices about her body, well not now that I’m campaigning”
“Please respect the CHOICE my daughter made, but YOU shouldn’t get to make that choice”
“We will call out all those who ask for earmarks. I asked for MILLIONS, but no one should”
“We must put an end to lobbyist influence. Yes, I hired a lobbying firm to get MILLIONS in earmarks for my town, buit no one else should be able to do so.”
“He has no experience. Meet my VP, she can see Russia from Alaska”
“I fully supported George Bush on ALL major issues. I’m really different than George Bush.”
“I’m a devout Christian. Let’s all pray for a pipeline”
THE LIST GOES ON, BUT YOU GET THE IDEA.
“CHANGE” FROM THE GOP – THE ULTIMATE HYPOCRACY!

THERE YOU GO AGAIN PLAYING THE RACE CARD LET’S NOT FORGET WHO SAID IT FIRST BECAUSE IF WHAT YOU’RE TRY TO SAY IS TRUE THEN WAS MCLIAR BEING A SEXIST JERK FOR SAYING THE SAME LINE ABOUT HILARY’S HEALTH CARE PROG??? OR IS IT BECAUSE HE WAS BEING A RASIST LIKE SOME OF THE MEMBERS OF GOP/KKK WHO WERE PRESENT AT THE TOWNHALL MEETING AT THE TIME???

As i’ve said it’s about the party, not the person.
All this he’s this, He’s that, she’s this, she’s that is nonsense. Once elected they do what “the Party” bids them to do.
Republicans had full control of our country up until 2006. They are the main contributors to our current state. Congress and Senate changed in 2007, but had limited control with Bush still at the helm. So from 2007 on Bush didn’t go with the country on issues he went with his party platform. Their (the Republican’s) goal was to make the current congress totally ineffective in preparation for 2008. It worked. Congress, senate and the President were rendered useless because of the party balance. We lost two more years. This is why we have elections every two years within our branches of government to change the balance of power.
Bush was given the greatest opportunity for change that we’ve had in decades. He made the same speeches (on reform) in 2000 and 2004. Look what his party did with it. We still have political party divide over what’s best for America. Play sound-bites from Bush’s speeches in 2000, then play McCain’s. It’s what they do after the win, not what they say during the campaign.
As a country we were in better shape from 1993 to 2000. It’s the party, America.
McCain, from the same party that bought you Bush!
Hold the party accountable, now.
I don’t buy this “under new management” shingle being played out to get my vote.
Both sought their party’s endorsement.
I’m shopping Democrat because the Republicans have lost touch with the folks they are attempting to lure into four more years. The Republicans can not have control of the man on the top this time around.
Vote DEMOCRAT!

This election was the Democrats to lose. Guess what… this is the beginning of the END of Obama. He should have waited another eight years to run for President. But no, he wanted it now, not later. He’s fizzled like a fireworks dud.

“Palin’s office approved a state job for a friend and campaign aide with whom she shared a land investment, financial records and interviews over the past two weeks show. She hired a former lobbyist for a pipeline company to help oversee a multibillion-dollar deal with that same company. She named a police chief accused of harassment to head the state police. And she sent campaign e-mails on her city hall account while serving as mayor of Wasilla — conduct for which she later turned in an oil commissioner on ethics charges.”
Although the McCain-Palin duo now rail against earmarks, the AP looks at the earmarks Palin has requested in Alaska. “Palin has sought $197 million worth of earmarks for 2009, down about 25 percent from the $256 million she sought in the 2008 budget year. As mayor of tiny Wasilla, Alaska, she hired a lobbyist to seek federal money for special projects. Wasilla obtained 14 earmarks, totaling $27 million, between 2000-2003, according to Taxpayers for Common Sense.

It’s kinda weak…
How about these:

I like the ‘Change that’s Changable’ one,
but I think that is Roves.
Up until Ms. Reformer came on the scene Change was not a part of the Republican vocabulary.
Remember? You guys will take us all back to the blissful 50′s when everyone knew their place.

All of you McCain Mongrels and Palin Pukes … have you no shame
The two lie like champs and you continue to entrust you lives, your country into their hands.
This ridiculous.
Oh well. Hope you can look at yourself in the mirror knowing that you are liars too if you endorse them

Obama/Biden 08

This election is for DEM. Why??? Because McCain is out of touch and has nothing to offer.

Thanks for pointing that out, LP — Oh’Really?! wasn’t able to keep his idiot persona for the whole interview, and (contrary to some of the posts on here during the interview) Obama did a great job of fending off his interruptions and baseless attacks against “associates,” bloggers and community activists.
Obama/Biden08

and who is the good old boy network
they are running mccains campaign right now.
who are the folks who smeared his 2000 presidential campaign
they are running his campaign right now
who are those lobbyist and special interests he claim to rid washington of
they are running his campaign right now
who is the man he is trying to distance himself from (bush)
he is funding his campaign right now
where are some of the member of the swiftboaters who he deplored
you guessed it.
THEY ARE ON HIS CAMPAIGN RIGHT NOW
MCCAIN WOULD RATHER LOSE HIS INTEGRITY THAN LOSE A CAMPAIGN

Obama’s women followers are terrified of Sarah Palin. A woman who has done what they bitch about being impossible. A woman who has made it on her own instead of crying victim.
Woman’s libbers – a truly scary bunch of complainers!

Has anybody heard Sarah Palin stutter, stammer or repeatedly say ‘ugh’?

Obama just doesn’t get it…we don’t need to change to his socialistic policies! We don’t need to give one party control of the Presidency & the Congress.

When fighting against McCain’s Karl Rove squad, staying on the high road is a lost cause. Obama/Biden must focus on the double talk and outright lies being spouted by McCain/ Palin. It is doubletalk to say McCain fought Republicans when he voted with Bush 93% of time on all major issues including war, taxes and healthcare. The Rove people are experts at using propaganda techniques like the Big Lie, but Obama/Biden must hammer home the truth: McCain is a Bush Republican: “You can’t throw the bums out if you are one of the bums”. Obama received the excellent advice that to win it is not whether you can take a punch that counts, it is whether or not you can give one. In the waning weeks ahead, Obama/Biden must follow three tracks: (1) Expose the McCain/Palin lies, (2)Get out the Obama/Biden policy message (3) Deliver hard direct blows at McCain/Palin as fake mavericks playing the American Idol game. In American politics, candidates to who don’t fight back with iron fists lose to Swift Boaters and Willie Horton ads and Rove’s specialty, The Big Lie.

dl
Sarah Palin is scary because she is still LYING about her record in spite of EVERY msm DEBUNKING her…
bridge to nowhere story
her ebay story
her house cook story
did she mention that she is getting ready to get charged for troopergate
this tells me she thinks she is above the law. well mr dl …. we just had eight years of that crap … that is why it is scary.
What’s more scary is that YOU and all the other lemming are ignorantly going to go to the polls and vote against your interest AGAIN.
WHAT IS THE SCARIEST IS THAT YOU CAN STILL LOOK IN THE MIRROR CLEAR-EYED AND CONFIDENT YOU ARE DOING THE RIGHT THING.
To use that smear you used against Michelle Obame
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY ADULT LIFE… I AM REALLY SCARED OF MY COUNTRY

Bots have been told to swamp the bolgs with the “lie” theme….ain’t going to work…who lied when he said he never heard hateful sermons for 20 years, didn’t know his good friend Ayers is a terriorist and Rezko was his criminal buddy….I AND MILLIONS WON’T VOTE A PREZ WHO HANGS WITH RACISTS, TERRIORISTS AND CRIMINALS. Judgement? TELL ME WHO YOU ARE WITH, AND I’LL TELL YOU WHO YOU ARE.
McCAIN IS ON OUR SIDE.

Some of you libs obviously don’t understand what it’s like to be an executive. Exec’s don’t need to understand how to use technology…that’s what they have aides for. It’s not like he’s running to be president of Apple or Micrpsoft.

poking fun
are you serious
grow up

grow up dude … seriously ……. would love to hear some one addressing all the mccain adds that have been debunked and shot down by factcheck.
is that ok with you.

Obama can make fun of McCain and computer skills….but could Bozo land a friggin jet if he had to…McCAIN CAN…FLEW PLENTY OF THEM FOR THIS COUNTRY AND OUR FREEDOMS. Has 100 year plus family history of service to THIS country…actually as far back as General Washington. Obama has Kenyan roots with 9 half siblings living in huts and he won’t help his brother. Atheist mom, Muslim dads, radical liberal associations….no friggin way this B. Hussein should get to live in our White House. Go back to Senate BO and put in more than 143 days, and how about taking a stand instead of 130 “present” votes.
HILLARY SUPPORTER FOR McCAIN BEFORE HE TOOK ON PALIN….JUST MAKES IT BETTER.

Real Clear Politics now gives McCain +10 in electoral votes. Rasmussen now has McCain +10 with white women. Obama’s following among Catholics and Jews shrinks daily.
What’s that flushing sound I hear?

Obama: A penny stock trying to compete with the S&P. Won’t work – bad investment.

The McCain/Palin have run such ugly campaign even people that I know are republicans are disgusting and voting Dem. It is really sad. Why is it Tim, Tommy F, Debra that instead of having a nice debate on the issues, you resort to name calling? Why can you tell yourselves to talk about the issues. We are at a crossroad where we need to think and reflect and make a decision on which team is going to advance the future of our country.
1. Education: are we able now to compete globally? Which team is going to bring us to the 21st Century and looking forward?
2. Economy: are we really better off now with these policies now implemented than 8 year ago?
3. Security: are we really safe in this world knowing all the loophole that Bush has open up.
4. Energy: have we made any progress on handling to lessen our consumption on oil?
5. Real Estate: homes in foreclosure?
6. Banking industries: no regulations?
Which candidate answers these questions?
Reflect on these issues.
I am asking because I am an American and electing someone to office is an serious business because the lives and the future of my children and my grand children are at stake. Get off your selfish mind and think as an American as a person who want good for the country.

LANNY EDWARDS
You’re really scraping the bottom of the barrel. Where’s the beef?

G. Why do you guys still revert to the last 4 years? The future is what needs concentration. Obama has no past in government and if you want we can talk “Dem. Congress”.

RE: Real Clear Politics
Obama now trails McCain by 10 in electoral votes.
Wake up, little Suzy, wake up!

I VOTED FOR AND DONATED TO HILLARY. THE DAY SHE SUSPENDED HER CAMPAIGN, I SWITCHED TO McCAIN. EVEN IF OBAMA HAD CHOSEN HER FOR VP, I’D VOTE AGAINST OBAMA. I AM NOT A PARTY/POLICY LOYALIST. I AM A PART OF THE 50% OF THIS COUNTRY WHO VOTES FOR PRESIDENT ON EMOTION, LIKE IT OR NOT. AND I FEEL OBAMA WOULD BE THE WORST CIC IN HISTORY. I WILL NOT VOTE FOR HIM JUST BECAUSE HE’S BLACK….GIVE ME A BETTER BLACK CHOICE. I AM NOT VOTING McCAIN JUST BECAUSE HE CHOSE PALIN (THO I COMMEND HIM ON THAT FIRST EXECUTIVE DECISION).
NO ONE ON THESE BOARDS IS GOING TO CHANGE ANYONES MIND. WE ALL KNOW WHO WE ARE VOTING FOR. I AM NOW WORKING FOR THE McCAIN CAMPAIGN IN MY LOCAL OFFICES. I MISS HILLARY AND LOOK FORWARD TO HER RUN AGAIN IN 2012.
SHE AND BILL ARE ALSO VOTING McCAIN/PALIN…THEY OWE B. HUSSEIN NOTHING.

Debra
So glad to see a woman who doesn’t feel like she’s a victim.

Ever notice how Obama failed to take a stand by voting “present” 130 times in the Senate so he wouldn’t have to be held accountable…. It’s becoming obvious to me that his indecisivenous and fear of doing something “unpopular” are bringing him down. He plays his cards “close to the vest” because he’s afraid to show his “true colors”. He wants to appeal to the moderate independents without alienating the liberals. He’s in over his head, and he knows it.

Obama’s Freudian slip about his Muslim faith speaks volumes.

Lasandra…Hussein is Arab.

For the folks that called “me” an extremist in a tin hat.
First you don’t know me enough to say that. I believe that’s the line that you’re using for Palin right now. So let’s stop making it personal.
I am explaining my reasons for voting Democrat.
I remember watching the towers come down live on 9/11 and wondering how Bush will use this to go to war with Iraq. I was not wrong, he did use it.
I watched, Colin Powell address the UN on Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq in mobile units. I thought I really don’t think so, but trusted Colin. I don’t believe I was alone here. At one time I thought he’d make a great president. Bush and the Republican party destroyed that chance.
The American public was told half truths so we’d support Bush in his Declaration of War on Iraq.
Where are all the people that caused this mess from 2001 to 2006? Hiding… because the party does not want McCain linked to them via the party line. You don’t hear about them voicing support for McCain. Those that do, only come out against Obama, to stir up the falsehoods on him. From there, folk’s chime in on blogs with words of hate and lies. McCain never puts message to you all to stop the lies about Obama and deal with known facts. So vile lies keep coming.
What I am looking to hear from you all is… Why, after knowing everything the Republican party has done to this country as of late, you’re still voting for this party?
Tell me why I should vote Republican?
Even McCain has ads running touting his opposition to this party to distance himself from their history here?
I don’t want to hear why McCain, why Palin.
We have a two party system. When you vote you vote for the party more-so than the person. That person remains loyal to the party. There are a few exceptions like Joe Lieberman, but what was the word from Republicans when news spread McCain might pick him for VP? An Independent Democrat on the Republican ticket? The party set McCain straight right away on that.
McCain is a full member of the Republican party.
I am a democrat. I am a liberal. But, I am not a fool.
It’s the party folks. Vote DEMOCRAT.

I laugh every time I see Obama looking down his nose at his supporters. What an ego-maniac!

Change? Obama is anti-change. He has run the exact same old garbage political campaign as we have seen for decades. His political views are vintage liberal as well. It’s truly funny to see this snakeoil salesman trying to con the masses with the “change” mantra. The only change is the color of his skin. Too bad he doesn’t have the GUTS to run on his true views in stead of this “change” nonsense. But then, socialists do tend to lose elections.

Moving to ALASKA to f**k every yankee tramp woman in sight!!!

Super Delegates are the democrats way of exerting undue influence on their party’s nomination. Didn’t work too well, did it?

jackt52
Well, if you can’t find something positive to say about the shallow one, I am flattered that you divert attention away from the nitwit by attacking me.
Keep it up!

Obama: The fastest mud-slinger in the west!

Excuse Ms. G,
But MCcain is the king of mudslinger. Face it

SRD,
Amen

dl:
Cuz you’re so easily attackable with your inane and nonsensical comments.
And the flushing sound you hear is McSame’s credibility. That may not show up in the polls yet, but it will in the poll that matters — November 4, 2008!!!
And I expect the polls will soon look a lot different, as the empty dress that is Sarah Palin becomes ever more clear and the public tires of McSame’s baseless lies and attacks and clueless claims of being for change.
Obama/Biden 08

The Obama nuts are throwing everything into cyberspace including half-truths and lies. They continue to sling mud and engage in character assassination – just like the shallow one.
Why – obviously they cannot think of much that’s positive to say about Obama so, they deflect attention away from his ineptitude.
Pretty simple!

Obama: nothing but smears and empty promises.
McCain: Vision, hope and promise.
The choice is very clear.
Obama NEVER!

srd,
Just like the last time, the republicans have dangled in front the evangelicals: run because homosexuality is going to be rampant if we vote for Kerry or Gore. Now it’s abortion: the appointee of judges. I believe in separation of Church and State. Yes we must consider these with other issues that pertain to our daily lives but not at the visible detriment of our country.
Who is better equip to take us to next century? Not McCain/Palin with their lies and never once said how they are going to take us into the next century. Who else but Obama/Biden they are ready and able to take on the task.

This is so funny! Change we can believe in because he is always changing what he says. We never understood what change he was talking about before, because he never qualified it or gave it any substance. Even when Hillary questioned him on what change he was talking about. He railed against Washinton and those who had been in Washington too long. Now, he picks 36-years in Washington Joe Biden to give him foreign policy experience.
Could it also be that Palin is the new change image and he can’t handle that. Everybody has taken his sound bite away from him! How could they!?
The change we need really is the maverick stances of McCain/Palin, not the new “refined” change stance of Obiden. Change isn’t just a word now? You could have fooled me. “Don’t tell me words don’t matter…..words, just words!”
This is too funny!
McCain/Palin ’08

.
I bet an Obama teddy bear would sell like hotcakes to the blacks, die-hard democrats, and the ignorant young that support the great one.
.

Bridge to nowhere because she stopped it from being finished. Even I knew a pig is a pig even with lipstick on it. MCBUSH’s plan for health care makes what the company pays for an individual’s health care taxable income for the individual which could put the person in a different tax bracket. In my sisters case that is an extra 8400 dollars. MIKECAL evidently MCBUSH also had facial muscle injuries too.

Obama is the most gifted leader and politician of our time. McCain who used to have integrity has been telling blatant and outright lies to the american people.
Obama made a wise choice for his running mate who has personally stared down dictators and war criminals and has EXTENSIVE foreign policy experience. The Obama ticket has a much better chance to keep the United States and the world safe than the McBush ticket.
McCain must have been McCrazy for his choice of running mate.
Obama has the guts to go out on the road and speak on his own.
Obama has the vision and high-level understanding of complex business models and of the global economy that will drive the economy of the future.
Do you think that a man like McCrazy who openly admits he does not understand technology will be able to lead the high tech economy of the future? Definitely not.
Obama has real charisma, and has already created change. He has attracted millions of people into the political process for their votes to be heard.
McCrazy has just been telling lie after lie openly to the american people.
People talk about small town america. Small town america will enjoy economic prosperity, and that’s when people will enjoy their american morning, when they can sit down and enjoy a good cup of coffee knowing that the economy is growing, that they (the middle class) have received significant tax cuts, and that their children will likely have a better future than they did.
With McBush the ‘american morning’ and american dream will have disappeared.
Bush did more damage to the economy in the last 8 years than anyone can imagine. Why would anyone want any more of that?
McCain = George W. Bush
Obama is the clear choice for the american future, so that people in smalltown america will be able to enjoy their livelihood grow and expand.

Jesus Christ, please remind the Dem. of the Ten Commandments. Especial “Tho shalt not lie”.

Obama is true to his nature, if you can’t beat them any other way throw insults about a person and especially a handicapped one. He doesn’t know or care that because of thousands of brave men like MmCccain he is free to shoot off his mouth. Maybe a viet cong prison would have taught him a bit about humility and certainly his choice of friends, and how much he is priveledged to live in America where he just might be willing to honor his country with his hand over his heart in front of the flag.

Sarah,
Sorry you drank the kool-aid, and have been duped into believing that Obama is the end-all, know-all of every complex situation that could possibly occur.
You said:
“Obama has the vision and high-level understanding of complex business models and of the global economy that will drive the economy of the future.”
I’d like to see your sources for this because I haven’t heard anything about his having any degrees in business or economics. Further, I have not seen anything that suggests he’s had any business experience at all, let alone any executive experience.
What I have seen is that he has dodged 130 issues in the Senate because he’s afraid to make any decisions that could later turn out to be unpopular. The man has no spine.

I was and still am A Hillary supporter DI I have heard Palin stutter and um um um and dadminnesota nobody tells lies like the republicans don’t you know they have a school called liar or the other guy. they can give lessons in lying,corruption, making sure their wallet is full of breen backs.

Looks like Obama just blinked!

It seems time to change to “Power comes from the barrel of the gun!” That’s the way to fight for your ideals, socialist ideals, just like Chairman Mao did. Show your fighting credentials, Mr. Zerobameus, God of Nothing ness.
Chairman Mao would have been disappointed, abandoning his “Revolution We Can Believe In!”
He would have been proud again, for the first time in his dead life, if Zerobameus borrows his “Power” slogan.

I am 71 years old and I have never seen such a biased press!I am an independent and i don’t intend to let the damn press tell me who to vote for, or use their awesome power to intimidate one canditate over another.In the ole days,all canditates were given at least some sort of respect.Those of you who can’t at least rationalize and make your own decisions are idiots!

God help us all(and i don’t care if you are an athiest),this country is going to implode! Our children and grandchildren will be the ones to suffer the awesome conesequences. I am a senior citizen and have lived through 3 wars and several”military excursions”.I probably won’t be around when this happens.Don’t laugh at this post,but try to remember what i say when it happens.I have never seen this country so full of hatred and division. I pray I’m wrong——

Obama’s blogs are even filtering the posts. I have had two that were submitted and they said it is being cached. Never showed up. MSNBC Obama blog.

…looks like the venemous left wing-nuts are back….

We do not have censorship as they do on the MSNBC. Filibustering is one thing Obama/Biden 08 and other followers do well. Just like the Civil Liberty people. No dialogue without Filibustering. I know there are a lot in agreement because it has so much exposure on non bias channels.

McCain’s attempt to hijack Obama’s message of change is nothing short of a daylight robbery. A brazen attempt at grabbing what is not his!
With his opaque VP in tow, they try to steal Obama’s light. No way, not this time, no McCain, no Palin!

It is unbelievable how many of you commented aren’t aware of the facts. Many of you are focusing on the half-truths or outright lies. Amazingly enough, many of you have the same problem as do the majority of Americans: the Bush economy. Despite, the exorbitant cost of food, utilities and fuel, the credit crunch, the mortgage crisis, the expense of healthcare, the deplorable state of public eduacation, environmental issues that are ignored and the ever increasing unemployment rate, you would rather focus on things that are truly unimportant. Who cares whether or not Obama is a Muslim? He is NOT a Muslim. Isn’t freedom of religion a right given to all Americans including the president-elect? Why can’t you all see this is not about race, gender or age, it is about improving the ecomony and our quality of life. It also means electing a president who has the ability to deliver change. Obama epitomizes change. The “Change We Need” that will make a difference in the lives of ordinary middle class and working class Americans like you and me. Focus on the facts, not your feelings or prejudices. Focus on the issues, not the rumors. Focus on how your life will be improved, not on wedge issues that do not affect your quality of life or the quality of life of your family members. JUST FOCUS!!!

how can some of you narrow minded people still believe Obama’s a muslim?? I would hope after decades of decades of rasism this country would change and change is what we need. I think McCain is just tryin to steal Obama’s mantra by claiming to be of change “yeah sure you want change, when you finally woke up and realized that’s what majarity of the country is for.” McCain doesn’t realize and can’t relate to real Americans, because real everyday americans can’t afford 9 homes must less are lucky if they get to own 1!!! McCain and Palin are rich snobs and in secret probably racist.I hope majority of this country realizes this because if they do then,McCain will see how out of touch this 74yr old is!! and the Democrats will win!most of the people in this country are not rich they are poor and middle class so if they come out and vote for someone who supports the workin class. people who actually have to work to survive and need thier jobs and helathcare can’t afford to loss it and live from pay check to pay check these are everyday americans and that’s what those rich republicans can’t relate to. most republicans come from money and don’t understand what it’s like to work for your money and have to work for a living.I am a true blue democrat and hope that all the democrats come out and vote for our guy
Obama!!!!

I think Mccain’s camp is starting to get into panic mode. They’ve spewed so much lies and negativity, they picked the most unqualified person in history to be the running mate, and despite all of this, polls show obama AHEAD in Ohio, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, and pretty much tied in Virginia and North Carolina?
They really thought they could fool the people with their lies once again. Obama’s too smart for that. The gallup and the rest of the polls aren’t true, because they’ve swung towards all of a sudden polling ten percent more republicans, even though there are more democrats. The media’s attempt to pretend that it’s a dead heat, when it’s not.

hi as a canadian and an outsider watching this election I am amazed at the blatant double standards that are flying all over the place. Here are my observations:
a) John McCain and is now “change” vision. It seems to me that his “experience” line wasn’t working and now he is using something that Obama was calling his vision since the beginning of the campaign
b) Palin, yes she pleads that the family matters are private issues. Which I agree. Then why was she parading her baby on stage after the Republican Convention? I always thought, that baby should be in bed an not passed back and forth in the stands
c) Bristol’s pregnancy, another private matter. However if this was a Dem’s situation, the Republicans would be crying foul about the permissiveness, liberal culture that is denegrating the society. I find it interesting that now that the shoe is on the other foot, its taking a much more forgiving approach.
d) all the blatant exaggerations with regards to records ie: Obama raising taxes…clearly factually that is not the case. He is raising taxes on those who make $250,000 and cutting those of the middle class.
e) and the “sex” ad that McCain approved of. That is just downright horrible.
I have been watching the prez elections since Carter and I have never seen it this dirty and one sided in terms of attacks. McCain supporters feel free to let me know of where Obama has gone negative I just can’t think of any…

Why did B.Hussein Obama dump Hillary? Why did the media trash Hillary? Why are they all now attacking Sarah? Don’t the American women get it? We are under attack from the far left! It’s time to vote a woman. If the Dems truly wanted change why did they throw 18million women voters into the trash? The media good old boys and the far left only want their cronies to be somebody.

The Dems didn’t have Hillary’s back they put a knife in it. Obama didn’t care about women. He is a bag of wind. Women keep doing more and more of what don’t work. vote for a woman this year Finaly make a change. Who cares about Obama lets show him what 18 million women think about his VP

Another shameful chapter in American history. The race for the presidency of the United States has revealed just how divided we still are after all these years regarding race. If you think this is bad…try caring for a racist…

Obama is the one who’s panicking!
McCain is Not behind in Ohio!
Ohio Univ. of Cinci McCain 48, Obama 44 McCain +4
Get your facts straight!
Obama/Biden are sinking in all the polls
which explains their need to change
slogans and campaign tactics!
Obama’s operatives are once again
playing the “race card” implying that
an Obama loss would be due to racism!
Thaey are also trying to scare voters
about McCain’s age and health!
He is in excellant health and is just
2 years older than when Reagan was
elected!
Obama/Biden are headed for oblivion.
The McCain/Palin Landslide has begun!

We need the kind of change a POW collaborator can give us. Only he knows what it’s like to have to make propaganda videos for the enemy and to have to give them classified military information.
Only he knows that once a person is defeated and humiliated like that, it’s easy to see that anybody who doesn’t agree with you is your enemy. Only he knows that the only effective way to deal with those who don’t agree is to attack and defeat them. Only he knows that attacking and defeating all those enemies will be the only way to his own personal salvation. Only he knows that if this then results in the ultimate defeat and humiliation of America, at least some Americans will then be aware that they are no better than he is.
How could you not vote for such a delusional and pathetic individual? The poor man has mental problems and it’s all YOUR fault for not winning the Vietnam War!
So vote:
McCain ’08

Obama “hopes” we won’t notice how many times he has “changed” his mind.
When will Obama release an accounting of “where” this money came from? How much came from middle-Eastern ‘Muslim’ countries? Will we find out before November 4?
John and Cindy McCain looked very patriotic visiting ground zero, hand in hand. Barack Hussein Obama looked like a guy who couldn’t get a date to the prom. Where was Michelle Obama? Does she really hate America so much that she celebrates the terrorist attacks of 9/11 at home in a turban?
Barack Hussein Obama and his anti-American wife spent 20 years listening to spews of hatred and “God Damn America” in a so-called church of God. Apparently Michelle believes America caused 9/11. All these radical teachings have been instilled in their brains by Jeremiah Wright.
For over two decades Obama turned to, was counseled by, and formed a strong personal bond with a minister who is a divider and a hatemonger. This simply cannot effectively act as a unifying force for the USA.
The best result out of Obama’s campaign may turn out to be progress in the form of all American cultures accepting that each individual, regardless of race, is to be rightfully held accountable for their actions, affiliations, as well as the doctrines that they adhere to and cultivate in others.
The embarrassing litany of anarchy, filth and hate that Rev. Wright spews should not be excused away as simply “the way our people speak”. Wrong is wrong and is not to be determined on a sliding scale according to skin color.
Obama has told too many lies. He has too many ties to anti-Americans and terrorists.
Have you thought about what might happen if Obama really is a closet Muslim and becomes president?
Vote for John McCain in November. Country first!

“While campaigning in South Carolina during his 2000 presidential run, McCain made such a jarring shift away from his condemnation of the Confederate flag that he felt compelled to apologize for lying once the race was over. As a guest on Face the Nation on January 9, 2000, McCain referred to the flag, at the time the focus of protests by the NAACP, as “offensive” and a “symbol of racism and slavery.” Afterward, according to McCain’s account in his book Worth the Fighting For, his aides pressured him into taking a more politically beneficial stance. “I didn’t want to do this,” McCain writes. “But I could tell from the desperate looks of my staff that we had an enormous problem. And that it could come down to lying or losing. I chose lying.”

Barack Obama!!!!! I can’t wait until you are President. I think clear thinking people will realize that McCain is the Same as Bush and vote for you!!

I’m sorry but it palpable how many indivduals still look at race and not what really is at state. So many people wanted President Bush and you see the result of that. I do not consider myself to be a Democrat or Republican but when looking at both parties, hands down I am voting for Obama. I am young educated African-American lady and I look at the factor of how John Mccain picked someone who doesn’t know as much as expected for a vice president. Another issue that interests me is that factor how so many people discuss how Biden is never around. Clearly, many of us whether black, white, man, or woman can realized the factor that Vice President is never around. To a certain degree I do believe how asinine we are in general about people in politics. Lets educate ourselves instead of hating and discriminating because one’s sex, religion, and or race.

People in this country disgust me. I am so leaving if Obama looses this presidency. I can not believe the ignorant, bigoted, waste of space people on this site, or in this country.
I’ll move to Canada or England where they believe that everyone is an equal human being, who gives a crap if you are a certain color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, aren’t we all people?
And on top of all of that, the results of this election are not about what is happening now, it has everything to do with the future of our children.
I for one want my daughter to grow up with health insurance, getting equal pay for equal work, and a cleaner environment.

John McCain has sold his soul to the right wing extremists that still run the GOP. If it weren’t for the big money that comes from the George Bush Fan Club John McCain would have conceded by now. Too bad McCain spends the money by spreading lies, smears and conspiracy theories. Time for America to turn off the faucet of deceit that now defines the GOP.

When John McCain talks about change he means giving money to Chevron lobbyists instead of Exxon lobbyists. Sending jobs to India instead of China. Buying himself another house instead of another condo.

Whats those two DIMWITS mccain/palin good for nothing.

Angel,
If you want your daughter to grow up with health insurance and all the other things, then make sure she studies hard in school gets as many scholarships as possible and goes to college. Then she can have all those things you want for her. Of course, she could also just get on a social welfare program and have all that, too. And hey, she wouldn’t have to study, go to school, or even get a job. All those new social give aways Obama is for will make it possible for even more do nothings to get a hand out.

hmm..i wonder how the Mccain supporters feel now…”YES WE DID”!
