‘It’s a Whole Different Game’

Obama will win. The “Change Revolution” of 2008 is soon to be American History. It’s a movement, and Bush is the tragic figure in history here.

If Obama can run the country half as well as he has run his campaign, he may just be the one of the best Presidents we have ever had. I have complete confidence in him; he really knows what he is doing!

LOOK AT THE APABILITY OF OBAMA, THE WAY HE HAS RUN CAMPAIGN, I AM SURE HE WILL RUN THE COUNTRY SAME WAY.DEFINATELY HARVARD HAS TOUGH HIM THIS MUCH.
I CANT BELEIVE HOW SOMEONE CAN VOTE TO MCCAIN EVEN AFTER REALISING ALL THE SAME.

There is a distinct possabilty that the present lead Obama has will snowball into a landslide. I suspect that Mcain already knows that his bid for the presidency is a dead man walking. Having lost the presidency and the democratics having a filbuster proof majority in the senate his focus is on stopping a two thirds majority in each house. I think events and poor judgement has shagged Macain rotten. Its now just a question of how big the shagging is going to be.

What’s this, George, another free ad promoting the Obama campaign?

Just remember people…we’re going to have the executive and legislative branches controlled by the Democratic party. Enjoy and don’t come crying back during the next four years.

Well Brian,
The republicans had the presidency and the legislative branches during the first 6 years of Bush. What did they do with that? Are you better off financially today than you were when Clinton left office? Morale has gone down the tubes with the stock market. USA’s image globally is in the tank. Obama brings hope and renewal of values.

Vanessa thinks young people and cell phone users aren’t polled as much. Vanessa, there are millions of Democrats in this election who won’t take calls from pollsters because they don’t want to admit they aren’t voting for the Democratic candidate. I know some of these very people. They let the answering machine pick up. They lie when asked who they are voting for. They don’t put McCain signs on their lawns or bumper stickers on their cars because they are afraid of Obama thugs. And not all young people are for Obama. Some of those young people just don’t speak up. I’m 24 years old, and keep my mouth shut on campus. I’m voting for McCain, and I grew up in a Democratic family. I’ll bet there are other college students just like me. And unlike most young people, I WILL show up at the polls to vote – for John McCain.

“Just remember people…we’re going to have the executive and legislative branches controlled by the Democratic party. Enjoy and don’t come crying back during the next four years.” Oh, you mean like how people are wishing that they hadn’t voted for GW Bush twice? Even if Obama does nothing, he couldn’t be as bad as the last eight years. Count on it.

BG – No he not promoting….he’s just telling you…”Landslide”! Obama 08

kevin the same thing on my campus. mccain supporters keep it a secret from obama THUGS for fear of harassment. i also do not use mccain bumper stickers on my car for fear that my car will be vandalized.
my last roomate left a few months ago in her senior year she told me was going to ‘follow obama’ she took out a college loan, and sold her car. i will miss her at graduation in may-i thought that was so creepy that now i just keep quiet. until i vote that is.

Barack Obama has not been forthcoming when he says his relationship with unrepentant terrorist bomber Bill Ayers was casual, Bill O’Reilly said on Tuesday’s “O’Reilly Factor.” And he took Obama to task on the matter.
Obama says that he was unaware of Ayers’ background and unaware that Ayers had compared Christian and Jewish fundamentalists to Muslim jihadists in 2002 when the two men were associated with each other.
O’Reilly played an April 2002 tape of Ayers speaking to a radio station in which Ayers said, “I considered myself partly an anarchist then, and I consider myself partly an anarchist now.
“I’m as much an anarchist as I am a Marxist . . . I find a lot of the ideas in anarchism appealing. We create felons by having these archaic, puritan drug laws that make no sense whatsoever in any logical way, so in that sense, I still feel like kind of an anarchist. I don’t feel like the rules apply.
“And if they don’t apply,” Ayers added, “ I don’t feel like [anyone] should follow them . . . Is one of those regrets that I took strong measures against the United States at a time of tremendous crisis?” he asked, answering, “no it is not. I don’t regret that . . .
“There is a struggle over various religious fundamentalisms, jihad being the most visible. But the religious fundamentalism of the Christian and the Jews is equally troubling,”
O’Reilly commented, “He’s quite a guy. During that time that interview was taken, ‘The Factor’ has learned that Barack Obama had frequent contact with Ayers. They were both on the board of the Woods Fund in Chicago. They were both involved with criminal justice issues together. Obama does not deny that.”
“And this seems to be more than just a casual relationship,” O’Reilly added, noting, “In 1997, Barack Obama gave the Chicago Tribune a blurb for Ayers’ book. A short time later, Michelle Obama organized a panel held at the University of Chicago featuring Ayers and Obama, among others. So there’s no way that Obama did not know Ayers was a radical. It is simply not possible.”
O’Reilly suggested that voters take heed: “The question now becomes, Is this an important issue for you, the voter? For someone like Colin Powell it is not. But others believe it is important.
“The end game in all this is that Bill Ayers is a bad guy, a bad American, an unrepentant terrorist and Obama knew it; yet, for whatever reason, he continued the association. That’s important.”

Goes to show you how gullible the public is !! hungry for someone to lead them like little lambs. They arent concerned where all of his money is really coming from or that his ACORN people are committing massive fraud to get him the vote at all costs. They arent concerned that he has reneged on most campaign poromises or that eh has questionable judgement when he works with and socializez with people who killed police officers !! he cannot hear 20 years of hate filledsermons..The list is endless…The voters are falling for this con artist and they will be sorry in 6 months and the media will finally turn on him then too.,

Now W.VA is incurring voter fraud:
Virginia Matheney and Calvin Thomas said touch-screen machines in the county clerk’s office in Ripley kept switching their votes from Democratic to Republican candidates.
“When I touched the screen for Barack Obama, the check mark moved from his box to the box indicating a vote for John McCain,” said Matheney, who lives in Kenna.
DO NOT ALLOW THE REPUBLICANS TO STEAL ANOTHER ELECTION!

Keith, yea we gonna spread the wealth, and first thing we gonna do is pay off Hillary’s debt. And we will buckle up if the commander chief sets a plan, then that’s what we will do!! OBAMA 2008!!

“”The homes of six Minnesota members of Congress — Sens. Norm Coleman and Amy Klobuchar, Reps. John Kline, Jim Ramstad, Keith Ellison and Michele Bachmann– were hit with graffiti last night or early this morning.
The garage of Sen. Norm Coleman’s Crocus Hill home was marked with the black painted words: “U R A criminal,” “Resign or else!” and the word “Scum,” written multiple times.”"
You bet it is a whole different game with these Obama supporting liberals.
I see they have raised the bar again for what is appropriate in an election. Liberals never cease to amaze me.

GOP and Palin supporters KILL a bear and staple Obama signs to its head and leave it laying at a college to be found later. TYPICAL GOP supporters, they will stop at nothing, even killing.

In my university you can vote right there. So, students vote.

Conf, maybe your son got tired of arguing politics with you and just said what you wanted to hear? I do that all the time with my parents.

Yes Yes Obama is a real America leader.by the way he do his campaign,he is respectful and having clean vision.I hope Obama win.

Sarah Palin used RNC campaign contributions to buy $150,000 worth of clothes and accessories for her and her family. That’s a hell of an earmark!

Conf1689 shame on you telling your son to vote for McCain because you are he shouldn’t vote at all if he doesn’t care your not teaching your son to have a mind of his own if your telling him who to vote for shame on you as a mother I would never force my opionions or my political views on someone who can’t make up his mind to vote in this great country of ours.

Conf1689
If your story is TRUE, then you did your son a disservice. You took away his right of freedom of choice…many young people are voting for Obama. This is the most important election of our time. Everyone should vote for the person who will make their life better.

BRIAN LEVINE posted the following: “Just remember people…we’re going to have the executive and legislative branches controlled by the Democratic party. Enjoy and don’t come crying back during the next four years.”

Francheska I didn’t take away his right and as I stated if he were still for Obama I wouldn’t have said anything. But he does not care and I know my son he wouldn’t even bother voting. As I said Sad but True. So yes I asked him to vote for McCain if he doesn’t care . Sorry if you don’t like this I don’t think it is any different for a parent to guide a college kid than it is for Obama to use Bruce Springstein to lure College kids to vote for him. At least I am looking at the issues and know which issues and President best suit my family. Sorry my choice isn’t yours. And don’t tell me I am doing my son a disservice.

Rj If you really feel that way about influencing votes you wouldn’t even be blogging here. Lets face the truth we are all trying to influence people to vote. don’t tell me you haven’t debated with friends, co workers, kids etc. on who you feel is the better candidate and influence their vote. Too bad if you don’t like it if I asked my son to vote for who i think is best for my family and country. If I were a parent on this sight blogging I influenced my son to vote for Obama you would be cheering me on. Sorry I chose not to waste a vote and asked my son to give his to McCain because mother knows best.

The Ayers/ACORN is a feeble grasp for any straw the right wing get reach. For one thing ACORN has registered hundreds of thousands of voters and most of the ones who actually showed up to vote had no problem – facts support this. Are you equally concerned about discrepancies in voting machines that have been found in Republican controlled districts in Ohio and Fl? No, I didn’t think so. It’s telling that the Republican approach to Democracy is to try to create less voter turnout, that’s patriotism at its best eh?

francheska
Get over it, yes Ayers is a bad person who ended up serving time for his bad acts. But where is the outcry for all the Republicans who also were on the same board with him, by the way the founder of the charity being a very close friend of Ronald Reagan?
People sitting on boards together does not necessarility mean they form a personal relationship (this would require them spending significant personal time together outside of that venue); to my knowledge that is not the case.
Also, the comments attributed to him about not being repentent involves his view that “he did not do enough to end the Vietnam War and save more military lives” and he made that statement just prior to 9/11 to help sell his book. I am a retired military man (30+ years) and went to Vietnam. I did not like all the protests because they took it out on us but I did understand why there was so much anger about that war. We had people dying for a country whose people were unwilling and unable to fight for their own nation (sound familiar?).
Our government back then, as they are now, backed politically/financially greedy leaders who only cared about lining their pockets (another theme happening today).
You need to get a grip and if you and others are so hell bent on supporting such bad policies then you need to join the military and go defend our nation by risking your lives rather than shooting off your mouths without fully comprehending the absolute horors of war!

Dave No my son didn’t get tired of arguing politics with me.I didn’t discuss politics with him much. He honestly doesn’t care. He probably isn’t as mature as you. But I do know quite a few of his friends were for McCain and this might have confused him to the point of not caring. Because I must admit I do know he’s not to up on issues, he just thought Obama was cool and to be quite honest because he was black and he wanted to support a black candidate. Nothing to do with issues.

That you ACORN for getting out the bum vote.

The kids are coming out…Its cool to vote for Obama not to mention their future is on the line!

Fascists right wingers better go and hide in their respective holes….He comes the Obama train. I am in TX but I will be travelling to FL to volunteer for Obama.
I am really, really pissed at the right winger this time around.

there are three votes in my home…two of which are young voters, one is a veteran who served in iraq in 2007-08. she still cannot understand what and why mccain chose someone like palin. everytime this woman speaks she just trips all over herself and makes a fool out of the campaign…wonder why john cannot see this…
maybe he just couldn’t admit he was wrong.
had he chose romney or even pawlenty, this would of been a totally different race.
OBAMA/BIDEN ’08

thing i cannot understand is that ayers served his time in prison just like g. gordon liddy…which mccain doesn’t want to publicly admit, is one of his good friends, liddy which masterminded the watergate incident…and served time in the pen for burglary and consequently forced pres. richard nixon to resign in 1974. so they both served time in prison. apparently ayers is rehabilitated as well as liddy because they both function in today’s society without issues…except to the republicans…

i agree with becky…
the worst kind of voter is the one who has no idea of what they are voting for and you should be ashamed of telling your child who to vote for.
you don’t vote for what is good in our great country you vote for your party.
P-A-T-H-E-T-I-C
i am totally with Becky here…give your child the information, let him grow up and make his own choices rather than enabling him to depend on you all of his life…

I am a former Marine that served during Desert Storm and my son just came back from Iraq and that is reason enough for francheska ;-), and even you, to say whatever you want. I just want to know why it is a requirement to serve in the Armed Forces so that you make a post on a website. Some people take opposing viewpoints way too far. Lighten up, Senator Obama will wrap this is up in a couple of weeks, and if he doesn’t I will be truly leery.

Obama has done more than just build the best ground operation anyone has ever seen. Their method of long-term grassroots networking will revolutionize the way campaigns are run in the future.
The excitement never ends!

Scare tactics of right wing nut cases are not working so far….You can see some of them trying really hard to scare voters about Obama. These nut cases are coming out of their respective holes, just during the election time.
Keep trying bytches!

I am getting really tired of these Obama ads–especially the “anonymous” ones.

Obama’s campaign is right out of the radical, revolutionary Marxist, community organizer Saul Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals.”
Obama said he learned the most from Saul Alinsky! When? Well, Obama was a community organizer for four years!
Obama also trained ACORN using Saul Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals” strategies!
POTUS via Saul Alinsky is a change America does not need! :(
Obama doesn’t give a hoot about the middle class! He just cares about Obama-power! :(
But, if Obama becomes POTUS, the pendulum will swing back with just as much anti-Obama anger as we now see against Bush!

ENOUGH is ENOUGH with the GOP goverment AMERICA.Let us move on and focus on 21st century an the future of are youth. The GOP can cry foul all they want, but it’s to late. To many middle class people are hurting right now, we working people wasting ur time and energy arguing back an forth why McShame is better than Obama. ALL I KNOW IS TIME FOR A CHANGE IN AMERICA, SO MY VOTE IS FOR (THAT ONE) not (THE OTHER ONE) :)……OBAMA/BIDEN 08-2012

Money, money can buy an election. This is a perfect situation for someone with unlimited funds. I guess he will have unlimited funds from the Democratic majority in Congress. Oh, I am sorry he will have unlimited funds from us tax payers. I voted for Clinton in the primary but I refuse to drink the Kool Aid for Obama.

Obama haters, give it up. You have accused him of “palling with terrorists, accused him of socialism, accused him of voting fraud with Acorn. Do you realize that no matter how hard you try to dicredit, smear, make racists remarks, and threats, Barack keeps his cool, smiles and is always under control. He is running the best campaign in the history of the United States.
Get ready to salute your new president on Nov 4th. There is nothing that you can do to stop him. Get over it.

Yes I think he must have great ground forces. Last month, I saw a woman on an early morning picking up trash and cleaning up the street. A few blocks farther, a man doing the same thing. At first I thought, wow, these are really good citizens, but then I saw they were wearing Obama tshirts. I have to say I was impressed. It must have been part of a group or campaign effort as more were seen throughout the day. That made me think, these are really good people, and they support Obama. Obama brings out good and positive change, while all I’ve seen from McCain and Palin are that they are bringing out negatives and insults. And I haven’t seen one of their supporters try to clean up the neighborhood yet.

If you ask me, a few months ago I’d have never thought Obama would be here. The simple fact he’s pulled this off, and worked a campaign as well as he has? Gives me confidence that he’ll do a decent job as President.

If McCain had picked a viable vp such as Romney he might have had a chance. But the huge mistake of pandering for the female vote by choosing someone who might have discussed a fireworks budget in some small AK town, put the fork in him. His temper would most certainly get us into more trouble with the world community. And finally he has no idea what middle class is. With his millions and the seven houses he has, no wonder he wants to keep the bush tax cuts the way they are currently. Mr. McCain your friends should be telling you to go home!

So true. I am going from NY to PA for the 4th time to canvass this weekend. I’ve never volunteered like this before, and I’m a professional in my 30s. Obama has people motivated. It’s great!

A president’s performance can be fairly gauged by how well organized his campaign is. McCain’s campaign has been a mess from the beginning. The GOP just had no better alternative (scary, I know). Obama has run a tightly organized, leak-proof, stable machine that is about to empower the average joe. If a campaign is at all reflective of the candidate, there is no comparison between the two men. If you include McCain’s choice as running mate, it becomes a joke, because that choice has itself become a national joke.

My 14 year old daughter (who happens to be Christian) cannot vote yet but the Obama campaign has her fired up and ready to go. She has been watching and paying attention and if she were old enough to register she’d be voting next month for Obama/Biden. I told her in 2012 she can vote for him when he’s up for re-election. :D

As an independant I have been following this election a lot. They are many things I disagree with that I have seen. I have seen republicans try to point out all of Obamas faults and associations and forgetting about there own issues. Seems to me with every finger pointed 10 more point at the mccain/palin ticket. I for one dont care about ayers or whomever else Mccain or Obama knew I have known some shaky charaters myself what I do care about is someone who brings 175,000 people together in one day and give them hope that the next 8 years wont be like the last 8. I care about someone who will at least mention the middle class I care about someone who for the most part turns the other cheek I care about someone who is having meetings with goveners right now to find out there ideas on how to get back on track instead of slinging mud I care about someone who is humble and has something to say someone who is a good example some who had handled money so well that he can out spend mccain and his rich wife I wouldnt care if obama changed his mind about how he would raise his money which is not really the case but….just shows me he is smarter than the average bear. Anyhow my point is I was proud to do my part, be a maverick and put country 1st by casting my vote for Barack Obama. The republicans talk about God but promote hate and separation I would like real change.

Conf1689,
When I was 19, if my mother asked or “guided” me to vote for “So and So”, I would have done the opposite as fast as possible. Of course, by the time I was 19, I’d been in the Air Force and living on my own for 2 years. But here’s my question for you; how proud are you to have raised an idiot?

Why did Obama change his mind and refuse public financing? For one thing, he found that there were lots of ordinary people like me who would send small donations to his campaign – and he realized that the Republicans had been able to buy the presidency in the past by using the loopholes that are there for pouring in money for “outside the campaign” groups that are supposed to only advertise on issues, not for candidates. The republicans have used this method for years to buy political offices.
Why does Obama have so much more money that McCain? Because ordinary people like me keep sending him $10, $20, $25 from time to time to support his campaign. There’s the real landslide. I’ve never sent money to campaigns before.
But, heck, this time I even sent $20 to Elwin Tinklenberg of Minnesota (when I live in Washington State) just because I want to see that woman, Michele Bachmann defeated so that she can’t resurrect McCarthyism in this country.
Obama has turned me into a participating player in this election – and that’s why he has such a big campaign chest. People like me actually think we can affect the outcome of this election.
Go Obama/Biden!
(Love ya, Joe, even though I wish sometimes you’d think before you speak!)

You need a good ground game to win the SUPER BOWL…SI SE PUEDE!!!!!!!!

come mothers and fathers throughout the land don’t criticize what you can’t understand. your sons and daughters are beyond your command, your old road is rapidly agin’. so get out of the new one it can’t lend you a hand, for the times are a-changin.

Are all Republicans stupid or does your right wing ideology override your rational mind.
Barack Obama was 8 years old in 1968 when William Ayres was in the Weather Underground. He planted no bombs, nor was he a child terrorist.
40 years later, he served on a nonprofit educational board funded by the widow of Ronald Reagen’s friend and ambassador Walter Annenberg.
William Ayres whose legal case is now over was on this board along with other Educators and Corporate Executives including the President of Northwestern University.
Could someone please tell me how this makes Barack Obama a terrorist.
I

It is amazing what intelligence can do for a campaign. This country has already been tested during the campaign. First with Russia and Georgia, it was Senator Biden the Georgians wanted to talk to so he went there. Then comes the economy, it was crystal clear September 15 when McCain said the fundamentals of the economy were strong and then a little later in the day stating we are in crisis and tried to backtrack on his statement attributing his statements to the workers are strong. We know that already about the workers but McCain, did you really think Americans are that stupid? McCain does not project that he knows anything about the economy and is still grasping at straws. His VP pick is not “Country First”. I have seen several decisions McCain makes and I find them scary and without much thought

And the repubs mocked Obama’s community organizing skills?

The “Obama Effect” can counteract a potential “Bradley Effect”. The “Obama Effect” will be not only young people and African Americans voting in record numbers (as pundits have pointed out) but white people in conservative states who tell pollsters they’re voting for McCain (e.g., in order to avoid guff from their more hard-line conservative spouses) but then pull the lever for Obama in the privacy of the voting booth. However, people need to quit slapping each other high fives about the Democrats’ big win when most of the country hasn’t even voted yet. If we become complascent about our chances based on polls we will lose. Also, don’t forget that, while it is possible that young people for Obama are being underrepresented in polls, it is also possible that polls are underrepresenting more conservative voting blocs too (e.g., people serving in the military overseas, older people who don’t respond to telephone surveys, etc.). We only win if we vote.

Lisa:
So Obama is now responsible for all of the ills of the entire State of Illinois
You forgot to list the other charges:
The current Economic State of the Union
The Wall Street Meltdown
The Foeclosure Crisis
The Iraq War
The Subprime Loan Fiasco
The National Debt
The 911 Attack
The Attack on Pearl Harbor

For people still discussing Ayers; Here is a few facts.
This was in the 60′s when Obama was 8. The Weathermen (man?) Underground was protesting the Vietnam War. They Targeted Government Buildings and made sure noone was in them when they blew themm up. As for the Judge’s House. Noone has ever proved that was by the Weathermen, and they deny it. Most Terrorist Groups would claim responsibility. When Obama Met Ayers he (Obama) was on a board for the Annenburg Challenge. Annenburg was a REPUBLICAN and several Republicans were on the same board. Annenburg’s Widow has also donated to McCain’s Campaign. And if you want to talk about Ayers lets also talk about G. Gordon Liddy! Who was going to kidnap and kill people. Look him up. He is an aquantince of McCain’s (and he has called him Friend)

Hey guys,
1. Obama THUGS is code for black people, right?
2. Reagan promised wealth redistribution with his famous “trickle down” economics. Does that make him a socialist?

I guess he can thank Hillary and the long long primary season, I think she toughened him up, if she had conceded in March as some hoped, we would be looking at a whole different picture, they hashed and hashed all year long we have been looking at this guy. He is on my tv so often I think he works for abs news!

GO OBAMA

Obama and Biden are not starting the Draft!
How gullible you right wing nuts are?! It is so funny!
ACORN is dealing with voter REGISTRATION fraud not voter fraud. Mickey Mouse and some dead guys aren’t going to the polls and casting votes. Duh?
No one but you wackos care about Ayers ’cause there is no story there. Deal with it.
RUN FOR COVER NUTTIES THE DEMS ARE TAKING OVER!

Ya really need to hear Biden’s full unedited speech. It’s out on Fox News. The versions you hear on mainstream media have been edited.
The draft is coming back!

The latest AP poll is flawed.
AmericaBlog looked over the methodology and a found that the poll skewed far too heavily in favor of Evangelical Christians.
The problem? In 2004, evangelicals/born-again Christians made up 23% of voters. But that same group makes up 44% of likely voters in AP’s poll released today. That’s almost double the number – it’s totally implausible.

I’m guessing the McCain supporters aren’t concerned about the Christian Right and their theocon army, i.e. Blackwater?
So the no bid contracts that went to all these private companies like Blackwater and Halliburton don’t bother you? No bid contracts that are being paid by taxpayer dollars?
There is no evidence that McCain will scale back on the warmongering.
Republicans for Obama! The Republicans have insulted my intelligence for the last time!

Here is why I know the AP is in the tank for McCain.
http://www.americablog.com/2008/10/new-flawed-ap-poll-claims-mccain-and.html

When he asked why Barack Obama’s tax plan was going to punish him for working hard and living the American Dream, Barack Obama responded, “When you spread the wealth around, it’s good for everybody.” People forget what Clinton did when took office. Raised the withholding on your check, signed the gay’s bill, passed the NAFTA trade bill that killed jobs. Clinton sure sounded good too……..

It’s easy to have hundreds of paid staffers when you have no fund raising restrictions!

If the man runs a campaign this wonderfully, imagine what he can do for America.

Gosh they were really pretty slow to get it how Obama prepared the ground game over a long period of time!
Time and again we see that Obama is a silent, steady worker who does not make a lot of fanfare about his accomplishments.
After all Community Organizer does not seem to be a bad preparation to run such a successful campaign! I don’t know of any campaign which worked so smoothly and build such a strong grassroots movement. I guess this is completely unprecedented.
And there is more good news: with the strong grassroots movement Obama prepared in the same time a solid net where the communication and involvement can go on right after he is elected.
Forgive me the jab but I think most of the people who are against him are simply to lazy to do something for the country.
Why? Because one thing is sure: Obama will continue to ask for our support and for our opinions when he is President of the United States of America.
No person can bring the necessary change about alone and he knows the fabrics of democracy is US… . I am very happy that he takes the lead as he is a truly excellent leader.
God bless America, Obama and the world!

You can say forget Bill Ayers, “Obama was only 8 years old” but it shows what the Character is of Obama to associate with Him and a bunch of other shady people and I’m sure Obama’s ideology and thinking is very similar to Ayers and some of the other people that have been involved in banking scam that has ripped the taxpayers of Millions. Ayers is closely associated with Obama. You just can’t accept it or you just want to deny it. They all are trying to push the leftist movement in one way or another. Ayers did it violently and Obama is trying to do it peacefully through the political system. No real difference in there thinking. Birds of a feather flock together.

RH
You are one of the reasons we need change in America. You spew racist lies and misinformation. Most people are cleaning out their desks now thanks to the Republican President George Bush who McCain is just like.
You are a fool.
Please welcome President Obama. God, I love the sound of that introduction.

Mp,
the difference between Obama and McCain is that all the shady people McCain is associated with are his own campaign staff and the lobbyists he is surrounded with. And what about Keating 5?

Like Obama doesn’t have any lobbyists. Where do you think ACORN got their taxpayer money from….all through Obama.

The only thing Obama and Biden can do good is a good talk. These are the same people that brought you the “change” of having to wear seat belts, the “change” of the 55 mph speed limit, the tax on your cell phone bill to pay for cell phones for the low income people (that’s the monthly gov. tax of $7 that you don’t know what it’s for). Take from the have’s and give to the have not’s. That’s not the “change” I have in mind.

KEVIN you wrote: “Vanessa, there are millions of Democrats in this election who won’t take calls from pollsters because they don’t want to admit they aren’t voting for the Democratic candidate”
Thank God there are 350 million people i America – of whom a relatively small percentage will vote…what’s a million more or less when you already have enough to win?
Of those who will be voting – Obama leads. All he needs is enough to win – NOT EVERY VOTE!

Mp,
it is not true that Obama has not accomplished anything. His political career spans over 12 years and he signed a lot of bills during that time. see www. huffingtonpost.com/robert-j-elisberg/the-little-known-truth-of_b_136516.html
And btw, his budget exceeds McCain’s budget so far for the notion he never had to decide over large amounts of money.

Aww, look at the McCain thugs trying to use fear and intimidation. You guys did that in 2004 and guess what, it’s not going to work this time. Don’t be upset because you guys put up the lousiest candidates in the history of this country. It’s not our fault that you’re not excited and we are. Get over it. Jealousy is not a good look.

This election won’t be close. Not even. I’m excited. We’re excited.

Somebody mention that McCain’s ad insulted his intelligence. I didn’t think they could get to that low of level of an Obama supporter. funny, every ad I see by Obama is basically a plain flat out lie, but his supporters must buy into them. He can’t tell you the truth. He won’t say one way or the other how he stands on abortion, that would be telling the truth. He won’t say he’s against guns, that would be telling the truth. He won’t come out say his healthcare plan is a National Healthcare program…that would be telling the truth. He won’t tell you that after he gets in office he is going to have to change his plans and tax everybody, that would be telling you the truth. We all know what he stands for, the same crap the Dimocrats have been pushing for the last 50 years, abortion, anti-2nd amendment rights, perverted same-sex marriage, pro-gay agenda, end free speech as we know it, he’s not going to tell you that, that would be telling the truth. He’s nothing other than a far right extremist. Vote for Obama and vote for socialism and more of the same cesspool were going down, simple as that. Sell your country down the drain some more, and some people buy into that.

Yeah – Isn’t it “scary” when people are actually competent. I will say that its true. I don’t think anyone involved heavily in politics has seen this kind of organization and discipline in a political campaign. If he applies these skills to his presidency, we may actually have a chance.

VOTE EARLY AND OFTEN
How can you tell a Republican is lying?
Their lips are moving?
New World Order/Alien Greys 2012

I think everybody that votes needs to take the Obama test at http://www.barackobamatest.com and see if he speaks for you. It’s very interesting, not biased either, it shows you how you stack up or don’t stack up to the rest of the country on most issues. I don’t know who created the web site but it really is interesting to take. I think it should be called the voter qualifying test.

mp,
you are a simply a hopeless case who tries to drag down the level on that board.
I never saw people and a campaign lying as blatantly as McCain campaign and it is so obvious.
All that you talk is crap, so please spare us with your outbursts and go to Faux news to meet your friends.

Let’s take a look at that Clinton “change” of putting a thousand cops on the street. That putting a thousand cops on the street was a joke. That program was implemented by Clinton and sounded good on the surface. Reality is, not much actually happened if you look at the record. The gov. only fund 50% of all those new cops for one year. When cities had to take over the funding them they either had to raise taxes or layoff cops, so the “thousand cops on the street” is a joke. Sounded good but didn’t do a thing. That’s the basis of the whole Obama program, a joke. Sounds good but who’s going to foot the bill.

Mr. Obama’s real mentor is Karl Marx, and Mr. Obama’s policies and pals constitute the most serious threat to the future of the USA as the land of the free.

So Andy Martin is in Hawaii and has been investigating Obama’s past and looking for his birth certificate. Andy Martin is claiming that Obama’s real father is the Frank mentioned in Obama’s book. Cool, that would make Obama the son of Communist Frank Marshall Davis. Oh and that would mean he’s been misleading everyone on this very important topic.
No wonder Obama rushing down to Hawaii.

MyRealDad – bloggers like you are plain sick!!!! Senator obama is going to visit his dying grandmother and you put a spin on that? You people are really scared to post such despicable slop!

Republicans Jump Ship
The official list of Republicans and conservatives jumping ship, pointing fingers, or otherwise abandoning the McCain campaign! 55 and counting……
http://www.jedreport.com/shipjumpers/

Gosh they were really pretty slow to get it how Obama prepared the ground game over a long period of time!
Time and again we see that Obama is a silent, steady worker who does not make a lot of fanfare about his accomplishments.
After all Community Organizer does not seem to be a bad preparation to run such a successful campaign! I don’t know of any campaign which worked so smoothly and build such a strong grassroots movement. I guess this is completely unprecedented.
And there is more good news: with the strong grassroots movement Obama prepared in the same time a solid net where the communication and involvement can go on right after he is elected.
Forgive me the jab but I think most of the people who are against him are simply to lazy to do something for the country.
Why? Because one thing is sure: Obama will continue to ask for our support and for our opinions when he is President of the United States of America.
No person can bring the necessary change about alone and he knows the fabrics of democracy is US… . I am very happy that he takes the lead as he is a truly excellent leader.
God bless America, Obama and the world!

For those who refuse to compare how these two candidates have run their campaigns… one which has been extremely organized with great insight, supreme planning and execution as opposed to the other which is choatic with erratic behavior and truly consider who would be a better President.
Those who refuse to see are willing to put up with with another 4 years of ineptitude like the past 8 years. It really is that simple…
We’ve had 2 years to evaluate them and the patterns are crystal clear.

DemFromCT looks at the polls, including a CBS survey in which the very same people were polled before the debates and after the debates. The net result? A shift from an Obama lead of 5 points to 13.
But the really incredible thing:
Senator Obama’s favorability is the highest for a presidential candidate running for a first term in the last 28 years of Times/CBS polls. Mrs. Palin’s negative rating is the highest for a vice-presidential candidate as measured by The Times and CBS News. Even Dan Quayle, with whom Mrs. Palin is often compared because of her age and inexperience on the national scene, was not viewed as negatively in the 1988 campaign.

It will, I’m 99% sure, be enough to overwhelm suppression efforts in battleground states.
I hope one of the first orders of business after he takes office is election law reform and campaign finance reform. If I had my way, voting would be mandatory for all adults. That way, nobody could keep people away from the polls.

I would feel much more comfortable with this report if I knew who this Republican is. My skepticism is not partisan since I have already voted for Mr Obama. I do however not see an unbiased coverage of the McCain campaign in the last week or so by MSM, not particularly ABC. I do not disagree with the conclusion of the report, only with the fact that there is an unnamed source with no corroborating evidence. Since it is merely an opinion I do not think that this is worthy of being reported.

Well we may finally have a President who’s with it than the dinosaurs of yesterday!

Well it’s obvious that the media is on Obama’s side. They can’t contain themselves when it comes to Palin. To wit; ABC reporting on Palin’s wardrobe, CNN’s interviewer’s out of context quote from the National Review. It’s the worse presidential coverage I’ve ever seen. BTW, ABC news has a board moderator that deletes pro-McCain/Palin comments.

to all you Mcsame supporters, I hope you enjoy getting your health insurance taxed and the economy getting worse. what would make you vote for another republican after the 8 yrs we have had, i voted for bush both terms what a mistake, democrats run the country better just look at the clinton days. GO OBAMA thats a leader

Sarah Palin, I am praying for you and John to win this election. If Nobama should win, millions and millions of innocent babies will be slaughtered.

Obama is a socialist who wants to increase our taxes. I told the pollsters that I would vote for Obama but the fact is that when it comes to the crunch, I could never vote for a communist.

History will be made with a women as VP and not a muslim man who is strongly antisemitic in the White House.

sally bull – and what do you think goes on in this country now? Abortion will always be a part of any society. Senator Obama’s big push is for prevention. And if you folks are so d**n righteous, go adopt these babies that are born that are not wanted, go into foster care especially for children with physical or mental challenges – instead of sitting on your high horses and condemning others! So much to say – you talk the talk, but do not walk the walk!!!!

Hussein Muhammad Obama will never be President of this nation.

Obama’s the most brilliant campaign organizer in American political history. As a political tactician, Obama makes Bill Clinton look like McGovern. The Republicans have simply NEVER faced as smart a politiican, or as brilliant an opponent generally, as Obama. He has outsmarted them, and crushed them, just as he did the Clintons. If Obama succeeds, and he’s so formidable it’s hard to see how he does not, the Conservative Movement will be toast for a LONG time. And the neocons influence in American politics will simply be dead meat.

Kevin, those people who are not answering the phone are not going to provide McCain a win. What many have failed to realize is that times change. There are more people of tolerance than there are racists. People in the 21st century are inter-racial. It is predicted in the next 20 years whites will not be a majority. Most of us elders have multi-racial grandchildren.
Yes, there are racists yet Obama ran as the candidate – he was not ‘selected’ but elected by the people and no matter how many numbers are crunched by the GOP the Democrats have out-registered them and Obama has a 50 state strategy so the politics of old don’t apply. As such, That One/The Other One 08 can reach 270 without having to solely rely on Florida/Ohio or Philadelphia.
Times Change/People Change and when all is said and done this Great Nation will on Nov 4th will have its first Bi-Racial President. Making him the candidate for all American – Not just Blue States or Red States but the United States of America.

Watch the states having a republican governor and secretary of state like in Kentucky, Alabama, Floridia, etc. That’s how republicans have been able to win. Jack Abramoff and Bob Nay to set-up this system designed to cheat. Remember Ken Blackwell, Ohio’s secretary of state in 2004.

PRESIDENT BARAK OBAMA will make histry
in American Presidential Campaign Histry what is already “HISTORIC”. Within 10 to 12 days Whole America and
world will watch this event.It is a
Blessing on him from God for many reason
this country is lacking.I know lot GOP
and Prejudiced people do not like the
idea,But exactly thats all is happening.
It is amaising.May god bless America.

mksyed
there will not be a John the babtist moment when the skies open up amnd a dove floats down to Obamas shoulder youre full of it and you know it… Obama has a ground game but there wont be anything like what they are predicting and you Obamasnots will have to accept the outcome.

Very hard for John Mcain to win this election.John Mcain himself acknowledged that and now he is battling it out until the election just for the sake of his supporters.GOP committee is now strongly discouraging MCAIN to back out from swing states and focus on Red states which had never went blue for decades and now are in the danger of losing it.By no means they dont want a democratic revolution in their stable belts which they fear would turn out to be a nightmare going forward.

JOE THE PLUMBER FLUSHED…
Joe Wurzelbacher is Charles Keating’s grandson.
His father is Robert Wurzelbacher who went to jail as part of the Keating 5 scandal.
Coincidence? I think not.
Do a web search it’s all there.
His mother is Elizabeth Keating.
In 2000, Joe the Plumber sold a commercial property for $402,000. That commercial property was located in…Milford, OH, home of Robert M. Wurzelbacher.
Robert M. Wurzelbacher lived in Scottsdale, AZ in the 1980′s
• Property: 819 Montclair Blvd., Miami Township, 45150. Use: Commercial structures. Price: $402,000. Buyer: Perry D. and Susan F. Buffington. Seller: Joseph Wurzelbacher.
——————
The nation’s newest celeb Joe the Plumber is a fraud.
A GOP plant, “Joe” is related to Charles Keating of The Keating 5 bank scandal that rocked John McCain!
Wurzelbacher, an Ohio plumber, thrust into the national spotlight after he was mentioned 24 times during the final Presidential debate by McCain, isn’t even a licensed plumber. State licensing agencies in Ohio showed no license registered under his name. Nor is he a member of the plumber’s union he claimed to be enrolled in on his MySpace page.
His name is listed in the telephone books as “Samuel”. More amazingly,”Joe” is a Republican mole with deep ties to a scandalous past.
Wurzelbacher is the son of Robert Wurzelbacher – the son-in-law of Charles Keating – The Charles Keating of the Keating 5 scandal – for which Sen. John McCain was reprimanded by the Senate for his part in attempting to illegally influence government regulators.
Robert Wurzelbacher was V.P. of American Continental Corp., the parent company of Charles Keating’s Lincoln Savings & Loan.
That’s the bank that failed causing many to lose their life savings and US taxpayers $4.3 billion.
As a result Joe the Plumber’s dad, Robert, pleaded guilty to misappropriating $14 million, serving 40 months in federal prison.
“Congratulations Joe – you’re rich!’
‘You betcha!”

Been at it for 6 months?? No . . . there are lots of us volunteers that have been working for over 18 months to get Obama elected!!!

See what Obama did in Chicago, nothing. The poor people he was supposed to help he did nothing for. GOOGLE –obama chicago slum lord — If he wins he will be the Slum Lord of America

Also did he use campaign funds for the trip, if he did he broke campaign finance laws.

Hope, Change and Molotov Cocktails
PORTLAND, Ore. – Authorities have arrested two men after a Molotov cocktail was thrown at a 4-foot by 8-foot campaign sign for Republican presidential candidate John McCain in a southeast Portland yard.
Karen Scrutton said she was asleep inside her home at 7956 S.E. 17th Ave. in the Sellwood neighborhood when she saw her sign go up in flames after 1 a.m.
“I screamed upstairs to my husband, ‘Jean! Jean!” she said.
A neighbor heard a crash and chased off one of the suspects. Jean Scrutton said his son-in-law found another suspect not far away.
Not long after, investigators picked up Leslie Brockette Leudtke and Kevin Carl Robinson, both 23. After interviewing them, the pair was charged with four counts each of manufacturing and possession of a destructive device. In addition, Leudtke was charged with a single count of reckless burning.
Witnesses said the suspects threw a Molotov cocktail at the sign and used another as a torch.
The Scruttons worried that their home could have caught on fire.
“Our whole house could have burnt down,” Karen Scrutton said while thanking her neighbor for intervening.
If this were the other way around, there’d be 24/7 network coverage about how our democracy is endangered.

School textbook promotes Obama
http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=77957
One parents take on this.
I do not expect this about political stories in English. That is Marxist/Communist propaganda tactics 101.
We might as well be living in China or Venezuela.
The mother of an 8th-grader in Wisconsin is blasting school officials over their use of a textbook lauding Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama’s “change” theme and highlighting his 2004 Democratic National Convention as an example of good literature.
The mother, whose name was withheld because of concern over retaliation, said on the RealDebateWisconsin blog her son is taking an advanced English class in the Racine, Wis., Unified School District.
“I just found out that my son’s new (copyright 2008) Wisconsin – McDougal Littell Literature book has 15 pages covering Barack Obama,” she writes. “I was shocked – No John McCain, no Hillary Clinton, no George Bush – Just Barack Obama.”

Vanessa thinks young people and cell phone users aren’t polled as much. Vanessa, there are millions of Democrats in this election who won’t take calls from pollsters because they don’t want to admit they aren’t voting for the Democratic candidate. I know some of these very people. They let the answering machine pick up. They lie when asked who they are voting for. They don’t put McCain signs on their lawns or bumper stickers on their cars because they are afraid of Obama thugs. And not all young people are for Obama. Some of those young people just don’t speak up. I’m 24 years old, and keep my mouth shut on campus. I’m voting for McCain, and I grew up in a Democratic family. I’ll bet there are other college students just like me. And unlike most young people, I WILL show up at the polls to vote – for John McCain.

Kevin…. have you ever done something you felt was wrong and felt ashamed of it? You don`t tell anyone because you know it wasn`t right and not proud of what you did. We live in a democracy, and people are entitled to think and vote as they want. However for you own sake and the country, vote on the issues and policies each one of these two men represent, talk to others and challenge their views not to hate but maybe learn something you might have missed and frankly sometimes learn the truth. On the other hand, if you go into that booth and pull that leaver just because of fear and lies we have seen what that leads to in the last eight years….. No one is out to get you, it`s just your conscience.

George Stephonopoulos is so stupid
He’s voting for Obama, because he wants higher taxes
George just dumb, he a dumb boy

Hey George, what are you still doing in any sort of public capacity after confessing Clinton secrets to a hooker? Oh yeah, and your softball, utterly ridiculous questions in the debates?
I’m not sure which is worse, actually.

Reading some of these comments, I’m surprised that ABC news is so racist and conservative.
Makes FOX news look mainstream.
You can have’em George. Have fun with the hookers, hopefully you don’t leak too many GOP secrets there too.

Real Reason Obama went to Hawaii.
Supreme Court Refuses to Order Release of Obama’s Original Birth CertificateThe Hawaii Supreme Court has denied efforts by mainland political columnist Andy Martin to obtain a copy of Barack Obama’s original Hawaiian birth certificate.

Posted by: John | Oct 23, 2008 1:35:05 AM
===================================
John, I guess you are not voting for Obama/Biden than….lol
what amazes me is most of mc cains support comes from people earning less than $50 000 a year, outside of the wealthy 5% off course….funny that it`s actually Obama proposing 3 times more taxes cuts/better healthcare coverage/help with college loans/more jobs to this class completely in contrast to Mc Cain, yet they keep talking about Obama`s Birth Certificate…….Check it out yourself…. http://taxcut.barackobama.com/

As “VoteMcCainPalin” so ably demonstrates here, the McCain campaign is clueless. What you see here is the difference between tactics and strategy.

Young people will come out to vote for Obama? HA! Kids don’t vote.

Hey Jimbo – You talk about voter fraud and ACORN, so answer me this: Why is it that the only people to be arrested so far for voter/voter registration fraud are REPUBLICANS????

In response to BILL FROM DAYTON:
Actually, Ayers never served time in connection with any bombings. Charges against him in regards to the pentagon bombing et al were dropped due to some technicality pertaining to how evidence against him was gathered. The same, however, cannot be said about G. Gordon Liddy, convicted felon thanks to his involvement in Watergate, who we all know was and continues to be a personal friend of John McCain. I’m surprised you didn’t know that.

If Obama can run the country half as well as he has run his campaign, he may just be the one of the best Presidents we have ever had. I have complete confidence in him; he really knows what he is doing!>>>>>>>>>
I agree. I am an active Independent, meaning I vote in every election, national or local and I vote for Republicans and Democrats. On my two visits to Obama headquarters I was so impressed. They are so organized. Some like to make fun of his community organizing skills, but I’m telling you, this is what we need right now, someone who will get the public back involved, the people paying attention is how we take back our country.

Lily, the laugh is going to be on you. ;)

The first thing Obama needs to do should he get elected, is appoint a voting commission to standardize voting methods and crack down on voter suppression and fraud. Who knows how many seats republicans have that are due to partisan tricks.
For Instance, Texas is 52% minority, and not a wealthy state by any means…yet Texas is the republican home base. Texas is the most gerrymandered state in the union and the republican party maintains its hold with trickery and groupthink tactics.
Appoint a commission, work Texas and own every election for the next 20 yrs.
Its not an election…Its a movement.

Obama showed he knows how to spend money in massive amounts. He promised to accept public finance in order to control spending but he lied. He says now he will cut taxes on 95%,,He is lying again but I am afraid he will be in office when people figure out he is a fraud.
Posted by: Brian———————————–Yea and McCain promised to run a positive campaine, so he lied. If Obama manages the Gov and country like he has his campaine he will be great.

DJ, I don’t know where you’re getting your facts, bud; but you are dead wrong. The Texas economy is the second largest in the nation and the 15th largest in the world. Scary that you do exactly what you think happens in Texas. Your suggestion that Obama appoint a voting commission to standardize voting methods sounds repressive. Folks, when this election is over and if Obama wins, the focus will then turn to State’s rights. Obama is going to challenge those. Movement my #%#%!

That Kevin is a coward. I do not have a problem telling people who I am voting for. Not only do I tell them that I am voting for Obama, but I tell them Why I am voting for Obama. I am voting for Obama because his desire is to unite this country. For too long the republican party has succeeded in dividing us in every way possible and the time has come for us to tell them that we are no longer their fools and that we, as a united people are taking our country back. That is why I am voting for OBAMA in 2008.

Obama socked them with the “Here and Now,” and nobody saw it coming, not even Hillary.
Obama got game!

Mike, There are all kinds of lawsuits every day, the vast majority of them total time-wasters. There was a lawsuit against god just last week, dismissed by the court because of the plaintiff’s inability to serve a summons on the defendant. (A mirror-image case of a lawsuit against satan, dismissed on the same ground, was reported many years ago).
Just because some idiot has petitioned the court to allow access to Obama’s birth certificate, and is scheduled for a hearing five days after the election, doesn’t mean anyone need quake in their boots. This whole birth certificate distraction has already been settled. Obama is a natural citizen. This swill is just like all the other crap McSame and his cronies have been tossing out there — it’s meant to bolster the flagging spirits of the losers who support the losers on the GOP ticket. But just like all the other talking points you’ve been, sponge-like, soaking up from Rupert Murdoch, it’s a fantasy. It is you, my friend, who is destined to be disillusioned after the election.
To any123: well and truly said! Raising the tax rate on 5 percent of Americans from 36 percent to a rate of 39 percent is no more socialist than taxing the first 36 percent in the first place. If McSame can promise — and deliver on the promise — to reduce my income tax to zero, then he gets my vote and he can call Obama a socialist without hypocrisy. But since McSame’s hands are not clean on this issue — and especially since his mentor Bush just this month socialized an enormous swath of the banking system — and since McSame wants to further socialize most of the mortgages in the nation, McSame looks more foolish than usual in calling Obama a socialist Robin Hood. Remember, in the original Robin Hood story, Robin was not just a thief who targeted the rich because of their deep pockets, he targeted rich nobles and priests who had stolen from the poor and he returned the loot to those from whom it had been stolen. Seeing as how Bush and his cronies have been stealing from the middle class for 8 years, it is not socialism for us to deputize Obama to recover the ill-gotten pelf from the thieves.

to all of you people who think obama is so wonderful, just remember if something sounds too good to be true, it usually is. >>>>>>>>>>>
Funny, that’s the way I see McCain’s last ditch, grab-at-anything, windbag promises. Go Barack! President Obama will rise so far above the naysayers their foolishness will be difficult to conceal. It is already happening.

http://www.theobamafile.com/BarackObama.htm
look here and see what you pro-obamites are looking to as a fearless leader.

Mike,The States rights advocacy movement was addressed by Andrew Jackson in the 1832 Nullification crisis. States rights do not trump whats sound for the nation.
By standardization of voting practice, I mean that we should make sure that in one state its not electric, one state its paper, One ballot looks like this. Scantron sheets work fine in schools across the nation. US citizens have been trained to use scantrons for decades now, I propose going to a scantron ballot as apposed to chads and electronic machines that have been shown to alter ballots.
By wealth, I am speaking of people that are poor and live below the poverty line. In statistics you learn that outliers can skew means. In Houston there are a lot of rich oil men and companies that skew the mean for statewide income…as well as the military bases. In fact, I saw more private owned businesses in Chicago than any city in Texas…and Chicago is liberal.
Last of all… I am a soldier that faught in the Iraq, I see the enlisted troops. I have in-laws from Houston to Austin I hear their pain. I have seen elections in democrat strongholds such as Chicago…and I have seen them here…LOOK AT TEXAS DISTRICT 22 AND LOOK AT HARRIS COUNTY. WHAT IS THAT?
http://gis1.tlc.state.tx.us/static/pdf/planc01151m.pdf
Waco, San Antonio, Austin, Houston, El Paso, Dallas, Ft Worth…all urban areas…THERE AINT NO WAY…A REPUBLICAN SHOULD GET OUT OF HERE ALIVE.
Look up group think Cowboy… We see what the game is in Texas.

Thank God! Obama turned down public finance. How would he have coped with the negative attacks, falsity, lies and down right gutter politics that John McCain has unleashed. Obama saw it coming and he had the foresight and ability to play to his strenght!!.
If a rookie like Obama could take on an experienced veteran like John McCain and take him to the cleaners!! gosh! i’ll vote for the rookie anytime.
Just imagine what he will do in 2 years of his administration. happy days are here again!!

DJ – “Waco, San Antonio, Austin, Houston, El Paso, Dallas, Ft Worth…all urban areas…THERE AINT NO WAY…A REPUBLICAN SHOULD GET OUT OF HERE ALIVE.” DJ, so what you are now inciting is violence against people who have a different political opinion? Is this the movement you’re referring to? Unbelievable! I thought you Obamacans were above that. Radicals at heart, eh? Damn! I only have one thing to say, “BRING IT ON, BROTHER!”

For the college kids (earlier posts) who feel they have to keep their McCain leanings private for fear of reprisal try to remember the only grossly offensive diatribe occurred at Republican rallies AGAINST Obama. So, here’s a tip for you. While you’re in college … learn something.

Mike – I quit replying to posters here. Of course you’re entitled to your opinion. My comments have more to do with how they’re expressed. I don’t care how you vote – I just think its funny that you guys haven’t figured out that the OBAMA campaign WANTS you to spin your wheels on stuff that isn’t going to sway voters. And you have to admit – the fairy tales and creative writing skills are fascinating!

you can blame the administration and the republican party all you want for whats happening with the financial system right now, but instead it is a direct result of legislation passed by the clinton administration and democratic party,, and kept alive for all these years by democrats that subdued attempts by repulicans to fix the problem before it got too bad.
well, now we are at the too bad point.
its really surprising how many people were out sick the day they talked about socialism in school,, but with obama in office im sure youll learn quick enough.

Republicans may say that Obama has no executive experience, but that’s hardly the case. He has managed the most impressive campaign effort ever. He’s hired great people at the top and has been very clear about the way in which he wanted his campaign to be conducted. Staff and volunteers are told they are not to make personal digs about their opponents but to keep to the facts and the issues. Obama’s intelligent and ethical leadership of his campaign is a glimpse of what his leadership will be as President.

In Life we have 2 types of people
The wise and Prudent
and then we have the Stupid Fools
The Wise person is the One who learns from other peoples mistakes and people who fall in that category are – to name just a few
Ronald Reagan
Bill Clinton
Barack Obama
Now the stupid dumb fools are people who repeat their own mistakes and other people’s mistakes and hope for a different outcome. In this category we have – to name a few:
George W Bush
Dan Quayle
John McCain

Chill Mike – read the post with a sense of humor would ya? I’m in Texas – still cleaning up from Hurricane IKE – and I knew exactly what DJ meant.

Since not one pro-McCain person can explain how McCain will be different than Bush, I think people will vote for Obama.

KEEP ENJOYING THE DREAM DEMOCRATES !!!
THE I.B.D. POLL, the proven most accurate poll for the past 8 Election Cycles show as of 10/22/2008 that it is DEAD EVEN, WITHIN THE MARGINS, McCAIN AHEAD IN OHIO AND FLORIDA and GAINING GROUND IN VIRGINIA AND OHIO !!! IT DOES NOT SHOW McCAIN FALLING ANYWHERE !!!
SO IF YOU THINK OBAMA INA LANDSLIDE, NOPE !!! Obama may very well win in the end, but your EARLY celebrating and consrtuction of Obama’s new greek temple for his CROWNING in Chicago is pushing MORE AND MORE of us fence sitters to GO McCAIN !!!

08ama in 08′! Power to the people!!

I am an Obamabot and I aprove this message: John McCain is Toast!
Sarah Palin … ummm She’s Toasted! atleast she got more in her short campaign than John McCain got. lets check:
1. She got a husband for her daughter Bristol= check
2. she Went on a shopping spree $150,000
and counting = check
3.she met world leaders in NY something that would have been impossible = check
4.Travelled all across America for free. = check
5. Her absence in wasilla means the moose population will increase and there would be more game after she returns. Nature conservation. natural moose repopulation = check
So for Sarah Palin its a win win situation = check

When a republicon says he doesn’t want name calling – just remember the current election
John McCain said the same
Cindy mcCain said the same
and they went ahead and did the exact opposite so dems take it with a pinch of salt.
This conmen/women aren’t to be trusted
period

Bill O’Reilly? We’re suppossed to believe ANYTHING that neo-con has to say? Bill O’Reilly never checks his facts and other newpeople, legitimate newscasters, call him out ALL THE TIME, on his incorrect reporting. Bill O’Reilly is an idiot. BE CAREFUL, and get your information from more than one source.

Here is the link again, this IS NOT FROM ANYONE AT FOX NEWS, check by Google’ing this reporters name, he is a STAUNCH DEMOCRATE, always has been and has sevral articles out right now bashing McCain, but he also has this one…

Just remember people…we’re going to have the executive and legislative branches controlled by the Democratic party. Enjoy and don’t come crying back during the next four years.

I guess you are hoping that we’ve forgotten all about how the RNC had control of the executive and legislative branches for 6 of the last 8 years. Hecuva job your guys did there, Brownie.

The question should be is Obama going to run the country like him and his Dems have ran Illinois? Highest taxes in the country, Highest unemployement in the country, Highest crime rate in the country. The Dems in Ill. can not blame republicans because there are none. This is not the change I want for our Country. McCain/Palin 08

Even if Obama lose this contest, campaining will NEVER be the same. We will now see the younger voters in the process sooner and pushing their issues. We will see more women and minorities looking to make their mark. Again, like him or hate him…this will change the face and culture of American politics and I think this is a good thing.

I think CNN, ABC or any of the liberal media should hire me, because I will ask Obama the questions that everyone wants to know and not just ask the questions that Obama has written for them.

Obama is going to run the country like he’s run his campaign : sensibly, thoughtfully,honest,no drama,forward looking and simple. If this is too much for you to understand then check with a shrink!!
McCain on the otherhand will run this country like he’s running his campaign
one minute he will be chasing alqaida, the next he will be divorcing cindy mccain for sarah palin. next minute he will be cuttiing taxes fior Georgia in eastern europe, next minute he will be suspending his support for Israel. Am at a loss, I honestly dont know what he stands for anymore!! So I dont want no confused person behind the nuclear button he might mistake it for his garage remote!

Liberal Press,
If I were a reporter for Fixed News then I would ask McCain why he hired someone like William Timmons, his current transition chief, a KNOWN lobbyist for Saddam Hussein?

Sue I would ask Obama how he rose so quick in the political party. I would ask him who paid for his education. I would ask him the ties he has with the President of Kenya. I would ask him how he could stay in a church for 20 years who preaches I hate America, I hate whitey. I would ask Obama his real ties with ACORN. I would ask him his real ties with Ayers (not just a neighbor) I would ask him………….list can go on forever.

Such divisive bitterness on both sides. Whoever wins this will have a mess on his hands and a bunch of sore losers screaming that the election was stolen. Remind you of anything? Why can’t America grow up, or is democracy just to big an idea for pea-brained rednecks?

My ‘post’ button is not going to destroy the economy starting with the keating 5 savings and loans scandal
Face it everything John McCain has been involved in, in his entire life has not been good going.
crashed 4 planes
crashed 5th invietnam
captured in vietnam
committed adultry whiles still married
Never had the brain or intellect to make it to Admiral like his dad and grandad before him
as commerce chairman manufacturing began to sink
thousands lost their livelyhood and homes in the keating 5 scandal.
When he tried to work accross party lines we ended up with keating 5
Voted against the GI Bill even though he claims to be a vet and a vet supporte
the list goes on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on.
And he’s been running for almost forever and forever and forever and forever and forever and forever

Amen!

President Obama
I like the sound of that.

I think it has to come if Obama wants to do everything that he is talking about. I mean, he has such a mega-plan out there to provide free this, free that, free everything else, universal healthcare, universal this. It all doesn’t come without a cost. Now, they’ll tell you that we can pay for all these things if we, (A), end the war in Iraq, which we all want to do, and (B), if we do away with the president’s tax cuts. Well, remember, that ’03 tax cuts, but remember, if we do away with one tax cut, on the one hand, that’s basically raising new taxes on the other hand.
So, yes, obviously, if Senator Obama becomes president, all of us have to be afraid, very much afraid that our taxes will be going up.

You get to be more patriotic in Joe Biden’s mind to the tune of $2,902, out of your pocket and into the government’s coffers. Gotta spread that wealth around, you know.
But don’t worry. Barack Obama says he won’t raise taxes on people making less than $250,000, and provide a tax cut for 95 percent of Americans. He promised

To: GEORGE, the I lied for Clinton George, the FAR LEFT LIBERAL HACK George,
As a typical left leaning so-called reporter, I wonder if you ever read the responces to your “reports’ ???
Would you read a review of you by A DEMOCRATE, proven to be a hard core DEMOCRATE ???
PLEASE DEMOCRATES, PLEASE READ THIS FROM A HIGH RANKING DEMOCRATE, A MAN WHO IS KNOW FAR AND WIDE AS A STAUNCH DEMOCRATE, JUST READ IT AND SEE HIS VIEW! IT’S CALLED:
Would the Last Honest Reporter Please Turn On the Lights?
REMEMBER, this was written by a Democrat….
http://www.ldsmag.com/ideas/081017light.html
*** I wonder how many Democrates will actualy care what one of thier owns states in his opinion piece ??? Do you even care anymore to read an un-biased reporter do his JOB…
George is IN THE TANK for Obama and does NOT have the guts to tell the American people the truth about his far left media agenda. BUT THE ARTICLE YOU JUST READ PROVES IT !!!
THE MEDIA DIED THIS ELECTION !!!
AND BTW GEORGE, the 1 POLL that was found to be and proven to be and cited as the MOST ACCURATE POLL IN THE LAST 8 ELECTON CYCLES IS THE I.D.B./TIPP POLL and it show the race as of 10/22/2008 to be DEAD EVEN, WITHIN THE MARGINS and McCAIN GAINING IN ALL THE BATTLEGROUND STATES !!! So again, you George and ABC are LIARS to the American people and as the article I just linked show, YOUR PROFESSION IS DEAD, oh wait, YOUR profession is to LIE FOR THE RADICAL FAR LEFT, so you’ll AMWAYS have a job.

Foreign Observer Are one of the worshipers in Kenya???

…starting with the keating 5 savings and loans scandal…
—————————–
Senators John Glenn and John McCain were cleared of having acted improperly
and the rest of your statements are very imaginative,,
and of course you do know that the gi bill was laced with irrational democratic timelines for withdrawl …
what am i doin,, im not gonna try to teach you anything, you need to teach yourself, right now, your missing alot of info

redneck from a blue state I think the liberals left because they can not handle the truth!!!

That’s funny.
Ultra right-wingers complaining about the media being in the tank for Obama. This suggests that Sean Hannity isn’t a journalist and Fox News isn’t the media, since they’re in the tank for McCain.
Fascists complaining about re-redistribiting the wealth stolen from the middle class by greedy self-serving corporatists who send jobs overseas, pay themselves 400 times the salary of the guy on the low end of the totem pole.
Hypocrites who festoon a brain surgeon VP candidate with a 150K wardrobe while putting her out as a hockey mom.
Brilliant strategy. Brilliant.

I’m a registered Democrat who voted for Bush twice (I’m ashamed to admit). I’ve an Obama supporter, and I’ve never seen such an impressive grass-roots gruond campaign in my life. I had campaigned for Clinton in 1992 at his San Francisco headquarters, but nothing compares to what I’ve seen in terms of outreach, computer access, and accessibility from Obama’s campaign. I’ve been able to donate money, attend fund raisers, and last night, a campaign staffer (I live in Portland, Oregon) contacted me last night to either canvass or phone call potential voters. On each state’s Obama website, they have tons of events set up according to where you live (by zip code) through the state and you can register by phone or by email. I’ve never seen anything like it. Never.

Obama has taken in 630 million in the last couple of months and is out spending McCain about 10 to 1 to get elected. Obama is mailing out pamphlets to all the people in Wisconsin right now saying he is all for 2nd amendment rights, just opposite of his voting record. Who can trust such a liar on anything. I would like to see where all his money is coming from. It’s not coming from the low income people. Nothing like buying your way into a gov. office.

Big deal about the cost of Palins clothes…..let’s get real, how ridiculous can you get. How stupid of a deal are they are making on her clothes when Michele Obama stay’s at the Hilton and eats lobster while everybody else is eating beans and Barrack’s suites cost thousands apiece. This is a good example of how the left news media likes to put the “spin” and negativity on the right. Is this the only thing they can come up with to put a spin on? They don’t mention a thing about Obama’s clothes. They don’t report that they will be living fat, dumb, and happy lives like Michelle Obama sitting up there in suite 23-M of the Waldorf towers with her hors d’oeuvres and her lobster and her champagne, and you’re going to be out there begging for crumbs and hoping that what you end up with is sufficient. They’ve got a lot of people that think they’ll get their health care paid for in this way and so forth. This is what they’re all about.

Until you get “FAIR” trade that McCain wants, this country is going to continue to sink to the bottom. Obama has not said a thing about “FAIR” trade. Fair trade would offset the cheap imports that are killing the jobs here. We can’t compete without “fair trade” and only McCain has a plan for “fair trade”. We buy everything imported and now have to borrow the same money back to keep our country going…how stupid is that. Obama’s socialist policy is not going to bring anything back but massive inflation. Are you people really that stupid?

Liberals either cannot accept truth or just plain deny truth. But he’s a good speaker.

You just can’t accept that can you?

I am an Independent and will support the McCain/Palin ticket because, based solely on their records, they have demonstrated to me to be the true reformers.

I’d rather be employed throughout the year and pay a little more taxes, though McCain stated he will leave them the same as they are now, than get a tax break of how much? Obama’s plan takes jobs out of the market. Inflation will rise, because businesses will pass the tax liabilities onto the consumer, misnomer #1, the 95% will still be paying the taxes, or businesses will cut expenses, misnomer #2, layoffs, downsize, etc. For instance, a person works for $18k per year and is taxed at 25% leaving with $13500. A person without a job earns zero but will get a check at the end of the year for how much? $1k maybe? Which is the better scenario? I’d rather be employed throughout the year than be unemployed with an annual government handout. Obama is going to put a huge strain on businesses which will slow the economy. Businesses will need to downsize (the alternative to inflation which will be expense passed onto the taxpayer who is supposedly avoiding higher taxes with Obama). In downsizing, they’ll be buying less inventory which means less money will be circulating through the system. Suppliers will need to downsize, more layoffs, etc, in order to accommodate the downsize of businesses. Manufacturers will downsize, yet more layoffs, etc, in order to adjust for the decreased demand, etc. This is trickle-up poverty that could put our economic crisis into a tailspin. We want to put money into the system and not take money out. Nobody will benefit from Obama’s plan. Try a little common sense if you can. Our country depends on it.

I think everybody that votes needs to take the Obama test at http://www.barackobamatest.com and see if he speaks for you. It’s very interesting, not biased either, it shows you how you stack up or don’t stack up to the rest of the country on most issues. I don’t know who created the web site but it really is interesting to take. I think it should be called the voter qualifying test.

Actually Obama is going to try and get rid of the Bush tax cut. So here it is from Obama not raising taxes????
let’s say you’re part of a married couple, filing jointly, with $60,000 in taxable income. In 2008, you would pay $8,198. If you have the same amount of taxable income after the Bush tax cuts are repealed, and tax rates return to 2000 levels, you’ll pay $11,100.
You get to be more patriotic in Joe Biden’s mind to the tune of $2,902, out of your pocket and into the government’s coffers. Gotta spread that wealth around, you know.
But don’t worry. Barack Obama says he won’t raise taxes on people making less than $250,000, and provide a tax cut for 95 percent of Americans. He promised

It would be easier for Obama to just plug in a video player and push the button. He’s can’t come up with anything off the top of his head other than the word for word text in his scrip he’s memorized at every rally he’s at. How boring can you get. He doesn’t have a clue what he’s going to do.

JNagarya It is a lie when Obama says he is not going to raise taxes on us who make under $250K. When he is actually going to do away with the tax cut Bush placed. So here it is again.

pete I hope it is wrong also and it is actually McCain up by 10 or 12.

obama is best–whether ur looking at policies or the man.

What we’ve been hearing about the polls is what the liberal MSM wants us to hear. Obama and his leftist illuminati cronies are contolling the media like puppetmasters. Don’t believe anything you read about the polls until all the votes have been counted (even the ACORN registrations!).

The only people voting for McCain are those not comfortable with blacks, or are wingnut loons or are too old to realize what’s happened to this country over the last 8 years.

Thee First of all I am not voting for Obama because I do not believe in his plan. Second of all his plan will raise the taxes on everyone when he stops the Bush tax cut. Third he has a better background and more experience in his pinky then Obama does. Do not call me a racist when 97% of the African American population is voting for Obama and don’t care about his plans.

Pete, Obama is not a Socialists, do not believe this Far Right Wingnut smear merchant garbage.
These hillbillies listen to big fat Rush and the rest of the Anti-American talk radio that’s where they get their disinformation. It’s facist propaganda and it needs to be shut down immediately after the Dems are in charge.
Walk away from these Right Wing loons, they are greedy Limbaugh and Hannity syncophants who worry more about minorities getting ahead of them.

The liberal media…….is this all you people have? Why would a liberal media fry Bill Clinton for 8 years and allow the gop to impeach him over lying about sex? Where was the liberal media in the run up to the Bush-GOP-Iraq War?

Thee Talking about a racist you just called all of GOP’s hillbillies. Come on you don’t have anything better you non working socialist who wants to suck the government dry and the hard working middle class dry. You are such a renob.

Thee Now let us look at Bidens comments. Be prepared to be tested if Obama is elected. The is not someone who is ready to be President. Biden said Obama is not ready to be President and I would run as VP with McCain if asked. Biden said this before Obama asked him to run with him as a VP. Biden listen to the three letter word JOBS!!! Not someone I want to redistribute the wealth when he can not even count to 4!!!

Thee explain this. Obama want to get rid of the tax cut Bush has in place. So how is he going to cut taxes. Here is Obama’s plan.
let’s say you’re part of a married couple, filing jointly, with $60,000 in taxable income. In 2008, you would pay $8,198. If you have the same amount of taxable income after the Bush tax cuts are repealed, and tax rates return to 2000 levels, you’ll pay $11,100.
You get to be more patriotic in Joe Biden’s mind to the tune of $2,902, out of your pocket and into the government’s coffers. Gotta spread that wealth around, you know.
But don’t worry. Barack Obama says he won’t raise taxes on people making less than $250,000, and provide a tax cut for 95 percent of Americans. He promised

I think it has to come if Obama wants to do everything that he is talking about. I mean, he has such a mega-plan out there to provide free this, free that, free everything else, universal healthcare, universal this. It all doesn’t come without a cost. Now, they’ll tell you that we can pay for all these things if we, (A), end the war in Iraq, which we all want to do, and (B), if we do away with the president’s tax cuts. Well, remember, that ’03 tax cuts, but remember, if we do away with one tax cut, on the one hand, that’s basically raising new taxes on the other hand.
So, yes, obviously, if Senator Obama becomes president, all of us have to be afraid, very much afraid that our taxes will be going up.

Ayers is a guy from my neighborhood.
Reverend Jeremiah Wright is not the man I once knew.(went to his services for over 20 years)
Rezko? I know him, he got me a cheap property, he’s hardly the guy I knew.
I don’t know anything about ACORN except I was their lawyer and I paid $800,000 to them.
Do you see a pattern emerging here? And it’s that he always disassociates himself when he gets caught, and when it becomes politically expedient. It’s not out of principle, it’s out of political expediency.
Isn’t this the pattern now, of Barack Obama?”
Obama has been dancing around about these guys since Hilliary was running against him. Hilliary should of been the nominee or at least the VP pick.

Liberal press – I happen to be a Real Estate Broker and a Landlord in Manhattan NYC. My overhead is enormous. I came from a smalltown years ago and if I could change it all and go back – I would.
But believe me my dear fellow American, I do not want John McCain running this country any further into the ground than the Bush Admin.
I guess I am not busy with “my money” like you are, I am more concerned for my country. I do not want some Far Right loon like Sarah Palin calling the shots.
I can’t think of anything more UnAmerican – she’s a self regulator and America doesn’t need any more of these types at the helm.

Just remember 2 vote… Talk is cheap, and u know what is cheaper… Get Up in the morning, afternoon and before the polls close and VOTE. Like Michelle Obams this Great Lady once said, for the 1st time in my 55 Years I am proud to be an American. They we ALL can look past color, and SEE a Qualifyed MAN. And just think HE is both Black and White.. Can’t get it better than that.. He knows what it feels like to have a White Mother, Grandmother and Father. and He knows what is feels like to have a Black Father. So People GET the VOTE OUT… NO Matter What… and Whoever You vote for, please make sure it’s not because he is a Black Man or a White Man, but because YOU think that He and DO a Good job to getting this country back on track.. The way it was when President William Jefferson Clinton was the President… Peace and Joy

Also, stop misrepresenting Obama’s tax policy. The Bush tax cuts would be repealed only for those making more than a quarter-million dollars. When Clinton got taxes raised, the same Chicken Little arguments were made, but lo and behold, the sky did not fall, the fabric of society did not rend, millions were able to get off the welfare rolls and we even managed to get a grip on the deficit. Scary stuff, I know, but I think you’ll survive. And job creation, in other circumstances might take the hit you suggest, but when the GOP just finished printing more than a trillion dollars out of thin air, markets are not likely to rebound until it is seen that there is some actual value being put back into the treasury to back up the dollar.
The irony here is that if the GOP had exercised the good sense needed to nominate Ron Paul, the party would be very well poised to win this election. But no, the truth is too nutty a prospect for republicans.

So What I know you have been drinking the KOOL-AID saying Michelle Obama is a great lade.

wii the jury -
They do not like Dr. paul becuase he opposes the neoCon agenda and he did not return his donation to Stromfront.org, the White Nationalists. He also welcomed the Stormfront people which tainted him.
These NeoCons loons would rather support John McCain who wants to continue corporate welfara and tax cuts to all of the companies that have shipped our jobs overseas, and will continue to do so.
They would rather support this man than vote for the betterment their country and all Americans.
They’re shameful.

Ah Liberal press – you are off this time.
The pollsters have been polling mostly older people at home during dinner hour or in the evening who answer the phone. I get these calls all the time, I never bother to answer.
They haven’t even tried to tap into the younger vote or those with cell phones.
By your statement about polling I can tell you don’t know that much about politics – if you really believe polling is a liberal thing. LOL

I hate burst your bubble but less than 20% of college age even vote. And actually that might be good. Most Kids that age don’t even have any idea how to take responsibility for themselves or balance a check book, let alone what’s good for our country. Most are brainwashed to start with by liberal teachers.

I was hoping the polls would stay close … as I am afraid some will think just because Obama is so far ahead in the polls they wouldn’t NEED to vote.
…IT IS IMPORTANT PEOPLE GO VOTE Obama!!!!!

Obama’s a thinker alright…say’s New govnment back Technology is going bring us out of this energy crisis. Yeah right! How gov. going to come up with such “new idea’s”. Where are they going to find a company still here to fabricate these “new idea’s” when their all gone. That is future “Pie in the sky” technology. IT’s taken over 10 years just to develop a battery for an electric to go 60 mi. Not going to happen along with the rest of his lie’s. The electric car is a money loser. $40,000 who can afford one? It fell flat in 90′s. Let’s cut the bull crap, as one person said. Vote for Obama is a vote for socialism, simple as that. Forget the nitpicking. It doesn’t do a thing.

Obama and his democratic policies in Ill. hard at work. Don’t blame the republicans on this because there are none in Ill.
Post Office Requests Police Escort After Violence Stops Service For Two Weeks
Reporting
Dana Kozlov HARVEY, Ill. (CBS) ― Dozens of mailboxes remain empty after the post office suspends service in one south suburban neighborhood. Some people get angry when their mail is late. But in Harvey, people have been waiting for days and days. They’re not getting any mail at all. CBS 2′s Dana Kozlov reports that one mail carrier in Harvey feels threatened.
The U.S. Post Office seems to think that this is one of the most dangerous blocks in the country. People who live on it say they haven’t gotten any mail delivered to their homes in almost two weeks.

Here’s a good email I received that’s makes one of the best points around.
By Huntley Brown
Dear Friends, A few months ago I was asked for my perspective on Obama, I sent out an email with a few points. With the election just around the corner I decided to complete my perspective. Those of you on my e-list have seen some of this before but it’s worth repeating…
First I must say whoever wins the election will have my prayer support. Obama needs to be commended for his accomplishments but I need to explain why I will not be voting for him.
Many of my friends process their identity through their blackness. I process my identity through Christ. Being a Christian (a Christ follower) means He leads I follow. I can’t dictate the terms He does because He is the leader.
I can’t vote black because I am black; I have to vote Christian because that’s who I am. Christian first, black second. Neither should anyone from the other ethnic groups vote because of ethnicity. 200 years from now I won’t be asked if I was black or white. I will be asked if I knew Jesus and accepted Him as Lord and Savior.
In an election there are many issues to consider but when a society gets abortion, same-sex marriage, embryonic stem-cell research, human cloning to name a few, wrong economic concerns will soon not matter.
We need to follow Martin Luther King’s words, don’t judge someone by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. I don’t know Obama so all I can go off is his voting record. His voting record earned him the title of the most liberal senator in the US Senate in 2007.
NATIONAL JOURNAL: Obama: Most Liberal Senator in 2007 (01/31/2008)
To beat Ted Kennedy and Hillary Clinton as the most liberal senator, Clinton as the most liberal senator, takes some doing. Obama accomplished this feat in 2 short years. I wonder what would happen to America if he had four years to work with.
There is a reason Planned Parenthood gives him a 100% rating. There is a reason the homosexual community supports him. There is a reason Ahmadinejad, Chavez, Castro, Hamas etc. love him. There is a reason he said he would nominate liberal judges to the Supreme Court. There is a reason he voted against the infanticide bill. There is a reason he voted No on the constitutional ban of same-sex marriage. There is a reason he voted No on banning partial birth abortion. There is a reason he voted No on confirming Justices Roberts and Alito. These two judges are conservatives and they have since overturned partial birth abortion. The same practice Obama wanted to continue.
The 5 Step Partial Birth Abortion procedures:
A. Guided by ultrasound, the abortionist grabs the baby’s leg with forceps. (Remember this is a live baby)
B. The baby’s leg is pulled out into the birth canal.
C. The abortionist delivers the baby’s entire body, except for the head.
D. The abortionist jams scissors into the baby’s skull. The scissors are then opened to enlarge the hole.
E. The scissors are removed and a suction catheter is inserted. The child’s brains are sucked out, causing the skull to collapse. The dead baby is then removed.
God help him. There is a reason Obama opposed the parental notification law.
Think about this: You can’t give a kid an aspirin without parental notification but that same kid can have an abortion without parental notification. This is insane.
There is a reason he went to Jeremiah Wright’s church for 20 years.
Obama tells us he has good judgment but he sat under Jeremiah Wright teaching for 20 years. Now he is condemning Wright’s sermons. I wonder why now?
Obama said Jeremiah Wright led him to the Lord and discipled him. A disciple is one in training. Jesus told us in Matthew 28:19 – 20 “Go and make disciples of all nations.”
This means reproduce yourself. Teach people to think like you, walk like you; talk like you believe what you believe etc. The question I have is what did Jeremiah Wright teach him?
Would you support a White President who went to a church which has tenets that said they have a …
1. Commitment to the White Community
2. Commitment to the White Family
3. Adherence to the White Work Ethic
4. Pledge to make the fruits of all developing and acquired skills available to the White Community.
5. Pledge to Allocate Regularly, a Portion of Personal Resources for Strengthening and Supporting White Institutions
6. Pledge allegiance to all White leadership who espouse and embrace the White Value System
7. Personal commitment to embracement of the White Value System.
Would you support a President who went to a church like that?
Just change the word from white to black and you have the tenets of Obama’s former church. If President Bush was a member of a church like this, he would be called a
racist. Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton would have been marching outside.
This kind of church is a racist church. Obama did not wake up after 20 years and just discovered he went to a racist church. The church can’t be about race. Jesus did not come for any particular race. He came for the whole world.
A church can’t have a value system based on race. The churches value system has to be based on biblical mandate. It does not matter if it is a white church or a black church it’s still wrong. Anyone from either race that attends a church like this would never get my vote.
Obama’s former Pastor Jeremiah Wright is a disciple of liberal theologian James Cone, author of the 1970 book A Black Theology of Liberation. Cone once wrote: “Black
theology refuses to accept a God who is not identified totally with the goals of the black community. If God is not for us and against white people, then he is a murderer, and we had better kill him.
Cone is the man Obama’s mentor looks up to. Does Obama believe this?
So what does all this mean for the nation?
In the past when the Lord brought someone with the beliefs of Obama to lead a nation it meant one thing – judgment.
Read 1 Samuel 8 when Israel asked for a king. First God says in 1 Samuel 1:9 “Now listen to them; but warn them solemnly and let them know what the king who will reign over them will do.”
Then God says
1 Samuel 1:18 ” When that day comes, you will cry out for relief from the king you have chosen, and the LORD will not answer you in that day.” 19 But the people refused to listen to Samuel. “No!” they said. “We want a king over us. 20 Then we will be like all the other nations, with a king to lead us and to go out before us and fight our battles.” 21 When Samuel heard all that the people said, he repeated it before the LORD. 22 The LORD answered, “Listen to them and give them a king.”
Here is what we know for sure.
God is not schizophrenic
He would not tell one person to vote for Obama and one to vote for McCain. As the scripture says, a city divided against itself cannot stand, so obviously many people are not hearing from God.
Maybe I am the one not hearing but I know God does not change and Obama contradicts many things I read in scripture so I doubt it.
For all my friends who are voting for Obama can you really look God in the face and say; Father based on your word, I am voting for Obama even though I know he will continue the genocidal practice of partial birth abortion. He might have to nominate three or four Supreme Court justices, and I am sure he will be nominating liberal judges who will be making laws that are against you. I also know he will continue to push for homosexual rights, even though you destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah for this. I know I can look the other way because of the economy.
I could not see Jesus agreeing with many of Obama’s positions. Finally I have two questions for all my liberal friends.
Since we know someone’s value system has to be placed on the nation,
1. Whose value system should be placed on the nation.
2. Who should determine that this is the right value system for the nation?

The only way Obama will win is if the thousands of fraudulent votes that Obama’s ACORN group submitted in all the swing and battleground states and some red states are counted. That would be a travesty on our democracy.)
AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THEY HOPE PEOPLE WILL BELIEVE SO THEY CAN SAY OBAMA DIDN’T REALLY WIN
..get your facts straight … Registration fraud is NOT VOTER fraud!!!!
(Acorn was ripped off by their own workers who filled out bogus forms to make a few bucks instead of actually doing their job) Those bogus registrations will not count as a vote for Obama.
…and as someone else pointed out the only one’s arrested for voter fraud have been Republican … so who’s guilty of fraud???

Illegals don’t have a problem getting false id’s. I don’t know why a few thousand can’t. ACORN will probably supply that too.

Well, I’ll be damned! The Democrats can actually organize and work together to accomplish something! That was truly the only thing I ever admired about Republicans- the fact that they were organized and marched lock-step together even if it was over a cliff like so many lemmings.

So Obama has unleashed his terrorist thugs to maim anyone who supports McCain/Palin. What a wonderful country we live in! We’ll all be dead within six months of Obama taking office according to his running mate, Joe, the Lounge Lizard. No wonder gun sales are soaring! Get one before the thugs remove the 2nd Amendment from the law abiding citizens. Just look at Thugsville (Chicago) where Obama is the Prince of Corruption and Daley is the King. High, high murder rates……

Oh, please! Hyperbole much, Thugs? “We’ll all be dead within six months of Obama taking office.”
You Morons For McCain spin from one lie, smear or paranoid rant directly into another then another. Obama supporters effortlessly show you to be lying about one and without disputing that you just got called out for lying, you simply pivot to the next lie-of-the-day. After about twenty lies have cycled through in this fashion, you come around again full-circle to the first lie — apparently hoping everyone would have forgotten that you already got called on that lie! Trying to argue with [e]Mp[ty] or LiPress is like trying to talk sense to a rattlesnake.
And BTW, Huntley, all that nonsense you spewed about the supposedly hypothetical white church — that perfectly describes the religion of St. John the has-been POW, of which you apparently are a charter member.

it is in the air. We are headed for change. 8 years of watching this nation and this democracy weaken and nearly go bankrupt. We have to go in a new direction or none of us will have futures. He is our best hope.

Oh please.
McCain supporters have done some bad stuff too. 30 Obama supporters got their car tires slashed while they were at a rally. Another had a rock dropped through his back window, smashing it into pieces, graffiti sprayed on it, and his Obama bumper sticker ripped off.
It’s not limited to one side of the campaign, and not reflective of the candidates themselves.
McCain is too old. I feel tired everytime I look at him. Palin is just not ready to take over should anything happen to McCain.

I can’t wait for NOVEMBER 4th.
LANDSLIDE!!!! should get very close to 400!

Obama also proposed Global Poverty Tax of 50 Billion Dollars per year to spread your money to the corrupted UN. He also spread your money to his wife’s employer who doubled her salary to &300,000.00. He also spread your money to ACORN that is involved in voter fraud and housing crisis. He worked as community communist revolutionary organizer started by revolutionary Soul Alansky who proposed communist movement from bottom up and slowly working within the system to change to communist.

Obama and Dems supported sub prime lending that crashed our current economics. Obama represented ACORN in court to force banks to lend money to the people who could not afford it. Obama is the second largest recipient of money from Fannie Mae. They refused to regulate bad loan practice proposed by McCain in 2005.

I Vey – Obama is BAD for this country. Obama’s ‘change’ will bring this country to her knees and she will NEVER be the same America. Most blacks who vote for Obama do so based on skin color or on the principle of ‘is our turn’ (I have seem many commnets as such on blogs). The low-income vote for Obama because they will get ‘help’ from Obama but others who support Obama, like yourself, have no concept of the economic principle that govern the markets and the business world. When you will loose your job becuase your emplyer moved to Canada don’t cry – just remeber you got what you voted for – Obama, Reid, Pelosi, Dean – the most corrupt and incompetents leaders we voted in congress. Are Americans that stupid?? I think so!

Vanessa,
I’m on your side too. My little brother is 22yrs old and I don’t sense any possibility of election day apathy from him or his friends. Even if the election day polls show Obama up by fifteen points they’ll still go and vote Obama. It seems like voting for Obama, and I know it sounds strange, has turned into a popular trend among some younger voters.

It is so hard to read all the comments of people who have been so decieved by Obama. It is ridiculous to assume he is going to be the savior to our country. Our economy got where it is because of greedy fraudulent people, not President Bush. The President of the United States does not have the power to control the economy. 9/11 didn’t happen because of President Bush. President Clinton ushered in that tragedy. A president can not fix all the problems of a country. Especially not a president that would have a completly different agenda, Barack Obama. Heaven help us if he is elected.

PS — to be fair, I think it is fine if you support McCain if you have looked at the issues and can lay out reasons as some of you have done here — the main thrust of my first comment was, just like there are hidden McCain voters afraid of the Obama thugs, there are voters in neighborhoods like mine who are probably afraid to talk about Obama, and they have stated NO good reason to vote for McCain, they just don’t want the *N* in the office.
And, it’s good that you can defend McCain — but Palin is another story, I WILL leave this country if she becomes president.

Just remember people…we’re going to have the executive and legislative branches controlled by the Democratic party. Enjoy and don’t come crying back during the next four years.

Which is needed to undo the enormous mess Bush and the republicans have created. If republicans in the congress has stood up to Bush when they knew he was doing unconstitutional things they might have been spared. However, they placed Bush and party over constitution and country. On Nov 4, 2008 they will be punished for it and rightfully so.

Enough with the “Landslide for Obama” talk. Seriously, it’s not even November 4th. I don’t care what anyone says; I’m a 19 year old voting republican. I am voting what I believe and NOTHING can shake that. No matter which way this election goes, I am proud of my decision and know that my volunteer time and vote weren’t a loss. I am voting my conscience and nothing can change that.
McCain/Palin!!

The reason the ground game works for Obama is because he has COLLEGE KIDS on the ground running around knocking on doors and being enthusiastic and energetic.
McCain has a bunch of senior citizens who have no energy to do anything but complain. McCain also has legions of fat people who sit in front of their TV’s eating cheetos and having sexual fantasies about Sarah Palin. He just doesn’t have what it takes, even if he WANTED to!

aww shucks, now. y’all should just talk nice to each other , now. (said in an assumed homespun and folksy way)let’s be nice to these guys. let’s let the neo-cons, evangelicals, and xtian rightists have one last little pity party as we show them the door. see ya’ll later! don’t let that door hit you on your way out now you hear?

Any voter who has attempted to communicate with the campaigns could tell you this. You call McCain headquarters – it’s like trying to get through to Comcast. You’ll never get a human being. You try a western state- like mine – and you find out that there are TWO numbers west of the great divide and both are staffed by snotty prep school boys who are clearly on vacation from the Ivy League. You tell them you are an Independent. They hang up on you. You call Obama in Wisconsin -and ask – out of curiosity – if there is a number in La Crosse, where you have family. There is. You get a young man who is calm, courteous (even though you are Indepdendent) and answers your questions. In La Crosse. Who are you going to vote for?
Obama’s ground game isn’t scary. It’s democracy and if he can run an administration like he runs a campaign – there is some hope for this country.
One defense for the McCain campaign – whoever they have in MN is great – reasonable, polite, and sane.

My Friends, I’m truly sorry for what I have become. The maverick I was when I ran in 2000 would denounce my campaign tactics in 2008.
You have to understand that my unraveling and incoherent campaign is largely not my fault, but the fault of Republican operatives formerly of the Bush camp.
They made me pick Palin when I wanted to pick Joe (Lieberman) or Tom (Ridge). They told me to embrace the negative smears on my opponent that I once aggressively denounced when they were instigated against me.
I apologize for what I let them do. It wasn’t completely me. They told me what to do and I went with it.
I do have to say the McCain of 2000 would cast a vote for Barack Obama, not the sorry Bush clone of McCain 2008. Thank you my friends.
