Mountain Mama! Obama’s Buying TV Time in Red State West Virginia

There will be no let up by the Obama campaign.
They are now pressing the advantage on the ground and on the airwaves.

I thought Joe was home polishing his golf clubs.

Obama is tied in the latest West Virginia polls out there and even ahead in the last West Virginia ARG poll.

A fool and his money are soon parted..

Why would it be a head fake? The race is close there and Obama maybe able to turn it.
No harm in trying

I’m from WV and now live in VA.
Obama will have a hard time in WV! It’s worth making McCain play the state. But unfortunately, and I honestly hate to use the word, there is a huge racist element there. And it’s not the closet racists.
I love WV and have many great friends there and it’s perhaps the most beautiful state in the US. But the educational systen there is horrible, there’s no diversity, and the social attitudes of a lot of the population are still somewhat backwards. (We moved when our kids got to schooling age)
Now VA is going BLUE! Much different demographic here.
Go Obama/Biden!

Obama needs to clarify that his tax “increases” only kick in on INCOME (i.e., PROFITS) over $250,000. It is not that the business is making $250,000. You can have a business making over $2 millions in sales, and they still get a tax reduction under Obama if their PROFITS are below $250,000 after they pay their employees and other expenses. This is a 3% tax increase on NET PROFITS above $250,000/year. I am worried when he’s using the term “making,” he’s confusing people. It’s not how much people make. It’s how much they net. Only if the net above $250,000 will they be subjected to an additional 3% on the income that’s above $250,000. The income that’s $250,000 and less will still be taxed the same and even at lower rates.

polls show WV moving toward Obama, it makes sense to make sure he’s got some ad money going there.
With a 10 point lead in VA he doesnt really need WV but…

100% Negative?
Obama falsely claimed all of McCain’s ads had been “negative.”
Obama: And 100 percent, John, of your ads – 100 percent of them have been negative.
McCain: It’s not true.
Obama: It absolutely is true.
It was almost true, for one recent week. Obama was referring to a report by the Wisconsin Advertising Project at the University of Wisconsin that concluded that “nearly 100 percent of the McCain campaign’s advertisements were negative” during the week of Sept. 28 through Oct. 4. During the same week, 34 percent of the Obama campaign’s ads were negative. The Obama campaign was found to have outspent the McCain campaign in nearly all of the competitive states, in some cases by a margin of more than 3-to-1.
McCain’s ads, however, have not been deemed 100 percent negative in other weeks. In fact, in the week after the Republican National Convention, 77 percent of Obama’s ads were negative, according to the advertising project, while 56 percent of McCain’s were negative.
and yes he also failed to mention that his campaign gave ACORN $800k. The Chicago Way! The most corrupt city that pays the highest taxes in the country. Thanks Obama

Go Obama!!!! Landslide!

I wouldn’t be surprised to see Hillary campaigning in West Virginia for Obama next week.
Wow, West Virginia is in play!!!

Obama is buying 30 minute time slots for informercials. This is a desperate move. People who are ahead do not spend this kind of money, and do not make this kind of desperate moves. This is a sure indication that Obama’s internal polling is telling him something different than the public polls are telling him.
One other thing…….Chris Matthews slammed the New York governor on Obama’s nonaccomplishments last night. If the news people think they are on the losing side, they start to slide the other way. Why? Because they want access to the President. If Obama loses, that would mean they have to deal with a President McCain. the hatchet job they have done on McCain, or rather, their allowing Obama supporters to have the floor to themselves, has already alienated McCain. If Matthews is making nice to McCain, then he probably knows something he isn’t telling us too.

Okay, I tried to post here but I have to say that this election has killed every amount of respect that I have had for journalism. It is funny that the reporters are all over Joe the plumber like lapdogs but Mulhony is untouched and no interviews of Ayers or Rezko. I am sure they would talk to someone. Just really interesting and I think I will never have faith in the media again.

Boston you are behind the time where you been this is old new…..

McCain’s 96-year-old Aunt Rowena talks to The Daily Beast about her nephew McCain’s impending defeat and why she gets a kick out of Bill Clinton.
“He’s losing,” Rowena Willis, John McCain’s 96-year old aunt said.
No Auntie Rowena…………HE’S ALREADY LOST!
POTUS OBAMA – IT’S A LOCK

Nat Turner
My friend LOL
Hey its not a lock unless everyone gets their buts to the poll and votes!!!
Every Obama supporter has to get to the polls and Vote!!

“Did anyone see the story yesterday about the couple who made a purchase from a telemarketer and $2300 was taken from their credit card for the Obama campaign? Saw it yesterday afternoon, but it would be useless to post a link since my posts have always been deleted when I do.”
Obama is stealing credit cards!
Ha!
No, I doubt that, but it might be a good idea for everyone to check their statements and make sure someone hasn’t gotten ahold of the numbers and used it for something like this.

Tip for Biden, if heading for WV … check first to see if ‘coal’ is also a three letter word.

If TV ad spending= more votes, then Soros can be President.
Obama likes to waste money on ads like wasting tax payer dollars.
McCain will win West Virginia confortably.

Obama is giving a positive message.
If there is any consistency in McCain’s campaign it is that its a constant flood of lies and deception. Nothing but negative campaigning and McCain supporters have nothing but negative comments about obama. Not one supporter can even recite any of McCain’s proposed programs or tax plan, because they simply don’t know or don’t care.

Mr. Tapper,
While WVU’s teams are called the Mountaineers, it is not the Mountaineer State. Rather, it’s the Mountain State.
I’m a native West Virginian who has lived in the NYC region for many years but have never lost my pride in my beautiful home state. It would make me so proud to see West Virginia go into the blue column for Obama. I’m hoping the good people there will see the light come election day. I think Obama’s well-articulated and well-thought-out programs would benefit this struggling state that has been continually raped and abused by corporate interests. West Virginians deserve better.
