Pennsylvania: McCain’s Ultimate Must-Win State

Obama 54% mccain 42%
Obama 340 EV
mccain 198 EV
Results will be in by 10:11pm Nov. 4th.

PA was smart enough not to go for bush/cheney in 2000 and 2004. PA will definately be smart enough NOT to go for mccain this time. Obama/Biden 2008!!!

If McCain pulls the upset in Penn. it means he has neglected other states too much.Even with Penn. Obama gets to 270 through Virginia and Colorado.Or North Carolina.Or Florida. Or Ohio.Or Colorado, Nevada, and North Dakota.Or………

pt – I hope you’re right, both times. I just find it amazing and unbelievable that after the last eight years that literally has brought our country to its knees, ANYONE could vote for a republican ticket. Whether it’s economic issues or national security, Obama is far superior in terms of intelligence, rationality, steadiness, and better for the country as a whole. It shakes me to the core to think of McCain and Palin in charge.

Sorry you feel that way Amanda, but Michigan and Florida did it to themselves by going against the party rules and scheduling their primaries when they did. Hillary was a good candidate and any other year she would have been the nominee. But her campaign failed the same way that McCain is failing. No clear cut message..she was experienced…then she was the change candidate. I think if you truly dissect what occurred Hillary failed to respect what Obama was able to do with his grass roots campaign. To vote for McCain is to go against everything that Hillary ran for. Her and Obama’s positions are pratically identical. It is your vote and you have decided, just as I have here in PA to vote for Obama.
May the best candidate win Tuesday.
My hope is that it is the candidate of Hope and Change
Barack Obama in 08

Year after year, I do understand why the anyone in the working class (making less than $30,000 single or $50,000 for a family) would vote Republican, as the party now stands. They may share your social values on issues like guns and abortion, but their economic policies have consistently made the working classes poorer. It’s simply a fact. Don’t buy into the nonsense about “socialism” or “class warfare”. Mainstream Democrats are no Marxists. But they do have poorer people in mind when it comes to tax policy. By voting Republican — presumably for social policy reasons — poor Americans only make Wall Street fat cats richer.

Yikes!!! What a typo. I meant: “I do *not* understand.” Sorry.

10 REASONS MCCAIN SHOULD NOT WIN PA
1. He is weak on the economy – he has admitted it, and his aides have confirmed it.
2. He has run a disgustingly negative campaign.
3. Obama’s plan on healthcare is better – and two days ago a McCain aide admitted it.
4. McCain’s temperment is not suited to the presidency. He is petty, vindictive, and has a killer temper. Obama, by contrast, is calm and deliberative.
5. Obama has a better “ground game.” More state offices, more involvement.
6. Like in the primaries, the high profile endorsements are tipping Obama’s way – most notably Colin Powell.
7. Rendell is a good Governor – and a strong Obama supporter.
8. McCain will be a continuation of George Bush. He has NEVER effectively answered this charge. Saying a zinger in a debate is not a rebuttal.
9. Sarah Palin.
10. Sarah Palin.

I have two family members volunteering in Pennsylvania for Obama. I think he has a very good chance to hold on to that state. My brother, who is quite conservative, is not even very enthused about McCain.
We are all ready for change.

LOL@ amanda…conspiracy within the DNC? Please, Voting for McCain because Hillary lost is cutting off your nose to spite your face. It’s retarded, but good luck to you and hopefully when your head hits the pillow you sleep well at night knowing you vote is based on selfish derision.

I live in PA. I am from Pittsburgh but now live in small town central PA. I am for Obama. But I have to say thank goodness for Pittsburgh and Philly because no Dem would win if it was not for them. The people in this town are definately for McCain. They are affraid of Obama’s color and are convinced he is a Muslim which they think makes him a terrorist. It is quite frustrating to live here.

It really shouldn’t matter what Sarah Palin’s health history is, whether she had 4 children or 5. I am sure Trig is hers since her 17-year-old daughter is about to give birth this month and that fact mathematically eliminates her from being Trig’s mother. Nevertheless, Sarah cannot be elected V.P. Not only is she not qualified, but her screechy voice would give me seizures if I had to listen to her nonsense for 4 years or even 4 hours! Yikes.

Ignorance is still prevalent in the United States… Fear tactics are coming out again because the Republicans are scared they are going to lose their monarchy! Dole in NC calling her opponent ‘godless’… Americans that allege to be Christians calling Obama everything but the Christian that he is. I jst hope and pray that all those newly registered Democrats really get out and vote, because if they don’t – the Republicans will ‘steal’ another state for the White House. Let’s see – in 2000 it was Florida – in ’04 it was Ohio, any bets on what state will be ’08???

Amanda – That’s taking a really narrow view (and a very skewed one) that could impact the country as a whole very negatively. Kind of like cutting off your nose to spite your face. However, it’s your right to be childish…

everywhere I go in south central PA I see dozens and dozens of Obama signs.
I’d be shocked if McCain takes PA.
McCain’s ads here have degenerated into total scare ads.. not a shred of truth in any of them. So much for his HONOR.

James to see his birth certificate you just need to go to his website. That was a very old rumor going around.

Dr. Paul Krugman, top American Economist and recent winner of the Nobel Peace Prize in Economics endorsed Barack Obama. Krugman noted Obama’s quick and keen understanding of the serious and complicated economic problems facing our country. Krugman stated that Obama has shown excellent judgment and will be our country’s best bet to get through these hard times. Krugmann stated that McCain has yet to display any real interest or even basic understanding of the economic dilemma facing our country.

Gus, I am glad to hear that! These people up here in Danville.Bloomsburg are all about Mccain and they steal any Obama sign put up.

You may want to contact the Child Support office in Ohio to see if they can get Palin’s records – they did a good job on Joe.

And trooper Wooten… oh sorry that was Todd Palin the vigilante doing his own investigation from the Governors office.

Am I the only one who sees a similarily between Obama supporters and the psuedo Hare Krishna wannabees of the hippie subculture?
….Except Obama supporters are not about peace, love and flowers at airports. They’re like a hostile, aggressive version that will just demand your money and not even give you the wilted flower. They’re the scary sci-fi version.

We lost the chance of a democratic presidency when the idiots put Sen. Hillary Clinton out of the race. Too bad!
Now we are stuck with an inexperienced politician whose past and present close friendships with hateful anti-American people will be a major factor in the voting booth. It saddens me to do it, but I will be voting for the Republican ticket on November 4.
At least, in my own opinion, John McCain is a true American who will never compromise the values and security of our great nation.
We need a president who is and has always been proud of USA and who, under no circumstances, belittles or bad-mouths my country as Obama, his wife, and his pastor do.
We need a president –democrat or republican– who is a tested leader and who instills American greatness and pride in our children. That leader is John McCain.
I will never vote for a shady and an inexperienced politician like Obama just for the sake of party loyalty. Party loyalty went out of the doors when the democratic party leaders kicked out our candidate, Hillary Rodham Clinton, and replaced her with Barack Hussein Obama. It was a stupid thing to do for them but, at least, we have a good alternative in John McCain.

Just voted 1.5 hrs ago. Contributed yesterday too.
Obama’s got em scared here in FL and Charlie Crist may have to switch parties.

McCain has again taken a statement completely out of context.
In an academic discussion on a Chicago television station in the late 1990s, Constitutional Law Professor, Barack Obama, was discussing the Supreme Court Decision “Brown v. the Board of Education” that decreed that ALL American children should have the right to a good education. As education is considered “wealth” the landmark decision called for a “redistribution of wealth”.

Salisbury….our country is not the most wonderful coutnry all the time. To think other wise is naive

——————–
Ok, for the 10,000th time.
It’s on the internet. Three different factcheck organiztions have seen it, held it. The STATE OF HI says it is legal. All parties involved legally says it’s legit.
The lawsuit filed by the whacko was thrown out as FRIVILOUS and a WASTE OF TAX DOLLARS.
What part of the don’t you understand exactly?
Now, on the other hand, Palin said on national TV she would release her medical records. But now is hiding them.
Guess they needed time to “fix” a few things first.

Salisbury: “We need a president –democrat or republican– who is a tested leader and who instills American greatness and pride in our children. ”
Could you give a couple REAL WORLD, CONCRETE EXAMPLES of McCain’s accomplishments? That would carry far more weight than your bumbersticker endorsement.
For example, for Obama I was very impressed by the video taping of confessions and interrogations law he wrote and, through good political work, eventually won passage into law. It passed with a healthy bipartisan majority and was happily signed by the governor who originally promised to veto it before Senator Obama worked with all sides to assuage concerns. I am impressed by his deep and detailed knowledge of and respect for Constitutional law, even not voting on some bills whose intent he supported based on his view of them having fundamental Constitutional conflicts. I am impressed by his unscripted answers to difficult questions, where he is sometimes willing to answer complex questions with nuanced answers rather than the typical black or white red meat.
Why do you think McCain shows leadership? What examples are there of his leadership leading to concrete results that have improved the lives of the people he works for?

Yes John McCain has “experience” the same “experience” Bush and Cheney had. Thus you can expect the same”experience” the next for years if he wins. Bad all bad!

I had to laugh when I read the “what if it was turned around” post..
I just had to think..
What if McCain got his political start with the assistance of a terrorist?
What if McCain spent decades attending a blatantly racist church?
What if McCain helped get 15 million in tax payer funding for a project headed by a convicted scam artist who just happened to help divert $300,000 into Obama’s home purchase.
Would McCain get the pass on these that Obama has?

Before John McCain’s tour of duty in Vietnam, he married Carol Shepp, a model from Philadelphia. On his 23rd bombing mission over North Vietnam in 1967, McCain was shot down and captured.
While he was imprisoned, Carol was in an auto wreck (1969), thrown through her car’s windshield and left seriously injured. Despite her injures, she refused to allow her POW husband to be notified about her condition, fearing that such news would not be good for him while he was being held prisoner.
When McCain returned to the United States in 1973 after more than five years as a prisoner of war, he found his wife was a different person. The accident “left her 4 inches shorter and on crutches, and she had gained a good deal of weight.”
Yearning to make the grade of admiral, McCain enrolled in the National War College at Fort McNair in Washington, D.C. and underwent physical therapy in order to fly again. The Navy excused his permanent disabilities and reinstated him to flight status, effectively positioning him for promotion.
In his book, The Nightingale’s Song, Robert Timberg chronicled McCain’s post-Vietnam military assignments and some of his “adulterous” behavior leading to his divorce from Carol and marriage to Cindy Hensley.
Timberg wrote, “in the fall of 1974, McCain was transferred to Jacksonville as the executive officer of Replacement Air Group 174, the long-sought flying billet at last a reality. A few months later, he assumed command of the RAG, which trained pilots and crews for carrier deployments. The assignment was controversial, some calling it favoritism, a sop to the famous son of a famous father and grandfather [both were Navy admirals], since he had not first commanded a squadron, the usual career path.”
While Executive Officer and later as Squadron Commander McCain used his authority to arrange frequent flights that allowed him to carouse with subordinates and “engage in extra-marital affairs.” Such behavior was a violation of the Uniform Code of Military Justice rules against adultery and fraternization with subordinates..
Timberg wrote, “Off duty, usually on routine cross-country flights to Yuma and El Centro, John started carousing and running around with women. To make matters worse, some of the women with whom he was linked by rumor were subordinates . . . At the time the rumors were so widespread that, true or not, they became part of McCain’s persona, impossible not to take note of.”
In early 1977, Admiral Jim Holloway, Chief of Naval Operations promoted McCain to captain and transferred him from his command position “to Washington as the number-two man in the Navy’s Senate liaison office. It wasn’t long before the “fun loving and irreverent” McCain had turned the liaison office into a “late-afternoon gathering spot where senators and staffers, usually from the Armed Services and Foreign Relations committees, would drop in for a drink and the chance to unwind.”
In 1979 at a military reception in Honolulu, McCain met Cindy Hensley, an attractive 25-year-old woman from a very wealthy politically-connected Arizona family. Cindy’s father, Jim, founded the Hensley and Company, the nation’s third-largest Anheuser-Busch distributor.
McCain described their first meeting, “She was lovely, intelligent and charming, 17 years my junior but poised and confident. I monopolized her attention the entire time, taking care to prevent anyone else from intruding on our conversation. When it came time to leave the party, I persuaded her to join me for drinks at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel. By the evening’s end, I was in love.”
While still married to Carol, McCain began an adulterous relationship with Cindy. He married Cindy in May 1980 — just a month after dumping Carol and securing a divorce. The newlyweds honeymooned in Hawaii.
McCain followed his young, millionairess wife back to Arizona where her father helped catapult McCain into politics,
Today, Cindy Hensley McCain is chairwoman of Hensley’s board of directors. Hensley and Company financial reports show assets worth a minimum of $28 million for the McCains

It’s not just Obamas plan to “redistribute the wealth” in a flat out statement that he wants to take from one class and give it to another. He has not had just one general association (like the Keating5 that keeps being brought up). He has Alinsky, Ayers, Rezko, ACORN, Wright… and the dude the LA Times reported about and has the video tape on… Obama may “know thousands of people” as he so tactfully put it… but his background and associations speak a 1000 words in my book.

Hey I see the White Supremist supporters are alive and well.Many of you are probably GOP paid posters. Come Nov 5th you’ll all be unemployed and burning your crosses in anger. McCain has the racist/fringe votes on his side. Palin is your pinup girl you betcha! Wink! Wink!

msa123: “but his background and associations speak a 1000 words in my book.”
Did you learn about McCarthyism from living through it, or just from a book? Either way, you have mastered the slandering and demonizing of law abiding American citizens based on innuendo and slander. Shall we call Obama before a Congressional committee, demand he name 10 other un-American citizens he knows, get him blackballed from work, audit all his tax returns, and then move down the list? Would that thick climate of fear and condemnation of other citizens make you happy?

It’s no secret that Alaskan’s have no respect for those of us who live in the ‘lower 48”, but the part that really troubles me is the association and membership that both Sarah and Todd have in the Alaska Independent Party which calls for Alaska to secede from the United States.
AIP founder, Joe Vogler has made the following comments regarding seceding and the United States in general: “The fires of hell are frozen glaciers compared to my hatred for the American government,” and “I won’t be buried under their damn flag,”
Sarah and Todd Palin have never repudiated or distanced themselves from those statements.

Salisbury: It speaks volumes about the weakness of the McCain/Palin ticket that your answer to my clear question (which I did answer for Obama):
“Could you give a couple REAL WORLD, CONCRETE EXAMPLES of McCain’s accomplishments?”
Appears to be, “No” followed by a litany of well-discussed slander the majority of Americans don’t find as important as the relevant records and abilities of the men running.

Salisbury
Apparently, many millions of Americans disagree with your assessment of Obama. That’s OK. That’s why we have a democracy.

pt – Palin is already under investigation in Alaska for corruption and will likely be indicted.
It seems that Sarah awarded the contract for the ice rink in Wasilla to a contractor who bid $300,000 more than another contractor. It is no
coincidence that the Palins had a new house constructed just a few blocks away at the same time. The Palins new house just happened to cost around $300,000. The Palins have no mortgage on their new home and have no receipts to prove they paid for the materials.
Hmmmm, not to hard to figure this one out, is it?

Sure maybe Palin and Bush have been not good for McCain but McCain has to blame himself for picking Palin in the first place. McCain has to blame himself for running a campaine all over the place with no consistancy except for smear tactics And not even consistant on which smear to use. Obama said it best. “We dont know anything about McCain because he spends all his time talking about me.” Obama has run a consisitant focused campaine showing great management . He has had a set back or two but got right back on track and stayed focused. McCains campaine has been poorly run, inner fighting among his campaine staff, waiting way to late to start addressing key issues and talking points. Obama spent 30 min on his commercial not once even mentioning McCain but talked about his own plans. Thats the difference between the two and why McCain will probably loose. It also says a lot about how each would run the country and white house.

I would like to see Palin’s medical records! Got something to hide Sarah? You betcha!

AJ: Joe the Plumber didn’t put words in Obama’s mouth. Or did the RNC pay off Obama to answer as he did so that they could publicize it. LOL

McCain is trying to make up numbers that Reagan was able to make up and win, but, McCain is not Reagan. I think Obama will win and that is fine with me. McCain has spent the last two months off in silly season and at the last moment he sees he is behind, so he is cramming to get votes he should have had wrapped up by now. I guess we know why he graduated at the bottom of his Navy class.

CW
Quite interesting that 80 percent of disabled Vets support Obama and only 20 percent for McCain. Check the facts and see why. McCains voting record on Vet affairs has been horrible while Obamas has been great
““““““““““““““““
McCain voted against the last GI BILL. That should tell people something abotu his feelings and support of VET issues.

BO is a fraud:
1. Lied about accepting public financing.
2. Raised all types of illegal campaign contibutions.
3. In ACORN up to his neck.
4. Swimming in America hating, anti-sematic, crooked friends and associates.
5. Didn’t release his medical records.
6. Didn’t release any of his college transcripts.
7. Didn’t release his college thesis.
8. His campaign promises completely ignore budget realities. No way he pays for all of his spending proposals without raising everyone’s taxes.
9. Sealed his State Senate records.
10. Spent the last 20 months undermining our president and our country (even in a speech overseas). Everything is Bush’s fault.
11. Questions the core concept of the US constitution that protects citizens from big government. Thinks the constitution should say what the government must do on your behalf.
12. Questions the “fairness” of capitalism. Thinks the wealth should be “spread around”
13. Paints a picture of America as a hopeless, broken country that only he can fix.
14. Equal or less experience than Sarah Palin.
15. His running mate guarantees that our enemies will test his mettle because of his youth, inexperience and perceived weakness.
16. Any dissenting opinion is crushed immediately (Sarah Palin, Joe the Plumber, Foxnews, etc.)
Oh, but he’s so eloquent and he’s for hope and change. God help us all.

mary and cw: your comments are a disgrace to veterans. Apparently you are reading biased news and it doesn’t even make any sense with John McCain’s history and background. Can you think for yourselves? Can you form rational and logical thoughts in your head? Apparently you want to believe what you want to believe. It’s irrational thinking and illogical. No wonder you’re Obama fans.

Say GOOD NITE Senator McCain/Governor Palin
Obama/Biden2008

jhw: After it had been reported in 2006 that Rezko was under federal investigation for influence-peddling, Obama purchased a 10 foot (3.0 m) wide strip of Ms. Rezko’s property for $104,500, $60,000 above the assessed value. According to Chicago Sun-Times columnist, Mark Brown, “Rezko definitely did Obama a favor by selling him the 10-foot strip of land, making his own parcel less attractive for development.”[36] Obama acknowledges that the exchange may have created the appearance of impropriety, and stated “I consider this a mistake on my part and I regret it.”
Regarding Wright and the others: have you noticed that Obama calls everyone of his associations with terrorists or radicals “honorable” this or that? And I completely don’t believe Wright has a lack of knowledge of the English language. Oh, that one is hysterical LOL
Regarding Alinsky, I think you need to study when he believes the time is right to take over a ‘community’. Our country is primed perfectly. and Obama is taking full advantage. The timing of the economic crisis announcement fell right into his lap. Ironically, 2/3 of Wall Street has given thousands and thousands of dollars to Obama’s campaign. And, he voted to bail out the crooks. I would have more respect for him had he not voted that way. We are screwed either way, don’t you see? And in regards to Petraues, yes perhaps som who knows.
Call it what you want. With your point of view, you deny everything and anything that you hear about someone. That is a very scary thing.

PhilBgood
Oh that’s right…I couldn’t put my finger on what I was hearing in the distance…It’s the Fat Lady beginning to sing! thanks for clearing it up for me…
Such a Lovely Sound!!!!
Bye Bye McCain/Palin
Obama/Biden 2008

Keep singing Obama fans… listen to the pretty music… close your eyes and dream of your savior…! Stay in your denial mode that our entire govt is corrupt! Yes, including your man Obama! Keep those eyes closed and keep dreaming… and maybe you will end up in the land of Oz soon…!

After McPalin not toughing out the rain and Palin not realizing that Pittsburghers do not like the Phillies…They can forget about Pennsylvania.

msa 123 News Flash!!!! Our government is corupt! Thanks to Bush and his cronies on Wall Street and Cheney, etc. All his administration. They were in CHARGE…Republican Congress for SIX YEARS! Who was watching the store?
OBAMA LANDSLIDE

Marx My Words: “3. McCain championed the Bi-Partisan Campaign Finance Reform Act of 2002, better known as the McCain-Feingold reforms, which attempted to close loopholes in the outdated campaign finance system. ”
McCain himself has gutted both the spirit and reality of his “reform” by explicitly exploiting the RNC loophole (he can raise up to $70k per person, as long as it technically goes to the RNC Committee to Elect John McCain).
Most of your examples reinforce what I found: McCain talks a good talk, but he never produces substantive legislation. Even his opposition to torture has not stopped water boarding or brought Guantanomo into a Constitutional realm (as opposed to the “it’s not on US territory, so it’s the President’s personal dungeon” technicality).
I want someone proven to actually IMPLEMENT good law and reform. Obama has met that test for me. See prior posts for a cite, or better yet research both Obama and McCain with an eye for actual law PASSED and implemented. Anyone can talk a good talk and get nothing done.

jhw: you are a hopeless case. When you believe as you do about another human being, even when the facts are there, that is flat out denial. You can make an excuse for anything and everything. I have told you that I am not a McCain fan, and I am not going to argue that point because it is not my point. You know that he has many accomplishments in his life and service to the country and I am not going to waste my time reciting them. I am talking about a man running for the presidency that is a politician to the core, and has too many ties with radicals. And you as well as some others, refuse to acknowledge that. So good luck in Obama land.

Deb in Iowa-
That was amazing. I’m seriously going to print that out and recite it every time someone says that they are voting for McCain. I’m in law school, and it just floors me how intelligent people I go to school with can overlook the education issues.
THANK YOU!!!!

msa123: “you are a hopeless case.

Despite your deep knowledge I HAVE NOT YET HAD A MCCAIN SUPPORTER ANSWER:
“Could you give a couple REAL WORLD, CONCRETE EXAMPLES of McCain’s accomplishments?”
Why is this so hard? I can do it for Obama off the top of my head. You see, I support Obama not based on his rhetoric (I find his speaking style dull and ponderous actually), but based on research of his actual record and accomplishments compared to research of McCain’s actual record and accomplishments. By refusing to offer any facts to support your positions, or actually answer any of my counterpoints, you have proven yourself to not be living in reality.
Voting for President should be based on facts and record, not blind faith and “common knowledge” that has no basis.

Handbook for BO supporters:
-Insult Sarah Palin, and say “she is not qualified to be a heartbeat away from the presidency”
-When presented with facts, lie or change the subject. I.e. If someone says, “the dems caused the real estate meltdown by killing legislation in the senate to regulate fannie and freddie” the correct response is “keating 5″. even though McCain was fully exonerated in that investigation but who cares about facts.
-Say “hope” and “change”
-Invoke the “middle class” or say “95% of Americans will get a tax cut” – 95% of Americans don’t pay taxes, but again who cares about facts, it sounds good.
-Say “John McCain is erratic”
-Say “failed Bush policies” or “the last eight years”
With respect to the “failed Bush economic policy” – sorry to break it to you all but we are in the mess that we are in largely because the dems resisted all attempts to reign in fannie and freddie. Sure Bush deserves some of the blame, it happened on his watch but his administration actually saw the danger in these dem piggy banks and tried many times to regulate them.
Saying that this economic crisis is due to “failed Bush economic policies” shows a disturbing lack of knowledge of market forces and economics. It also leaves out that small fact the fannie and freddie were the catalyst behind this whole mess.

McCain/Palin 2008
Resistance Is Futile
Vote Early
Vote Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday and Thursday and Friday and Saturday and Sunday
Vote for your dearly departed relatives and friends.
YOU KNOW they wanted McCain and Palin.
John and Sarah 2008

The bottom line is: According to the Washington Times: “Single-party rule is inherently totalitarian whether the people consent to it or not. In most cases, one-party states rise out of authoritarian regimes, including former monarchies, or socialist revolutions. There are currently seven – China, Cuba, Eritrea, Laos, Vietnam, Syria, Korea. The United States would become the eighth.”

Dem in DC that’s BO supporter handbook #2 “Change the Subject or Lie”. But for fun:
The Ethics Committee ruled that the involvement of McCain in the scheme was also minimal, and he too was cleared of all charges against him. McCain was criticized by the Committee for exercising “poor judgment” when he met with the federal regulators on Keating’s behalf. The report also said that McCain’s “actions were not improper nor attended with gross negligence and did not reach the level of requiring institutional action against him….Senator McCain has violated no law of the United States or specific Rule of the United States Senate.

Bill: You make the Republican campaign look like a fool when you cut and paste a widely debunked email full of faslehoods and complete fabrications Even snopes.com, the urban legends site, runs through all the absurd lies in that screed.

I have always been a staunch republican and voted for Bush twice. This year there is no question that I am voting Obama and not because I don’t like McCain but because I think we need someone who can inspire us all to regain the true potential our country has. I will be hit with a tax increase with Obama’s plan but we all do need to contribute in our own ways to reinvest our sweat and/or money to hand an even stronger country to the next generation. I don’t consider this redistribution but a way for me to give back what only this country can give – freedom, opportunity and great people.
How anyone in middleclass can vote for a divisive ticket of McCain/palin at a time we need to be united is beyond me.

I have to laugh when I hear McCain talk about Joe the Plumber. McCain says that Joe is the meaning of small business. That’s a lie because Joe is not even a plumber and never had apprentice training. In fact Joe is just a scab who will probably pay his employees five dollars an hour with no benefits. Joe to me is scum and a scab and a liar. I live in Illinois and we have training and trade schools. I am a member of the Painters and Allied trades DC#30 local #607. I am a proud American worker and a middle class worker. McCain has tried to rid the country of union’s and the prevailing wage. He has voted against the Davis-Bacon Act 15 times and just as recently as November 2004. That’s an Act that provides prevailing wage to workers in Federally Funded projects, like Katrina. To have Joe the Loser try to act like a savior for the middle class is a slap in the face to all American workers, and now Joe has a book deal! What’s up with that!! McCain is against the Employee Free Choice Act that allows workers to organize and create unions in the workplace if they need it and want it, with no penalty of losing their job. Thats a little straight talk for all of you. Thank God the McCain is not going to win and all of those people who make under $250,00 should vote for Obama. McCain says at his rally’s that Obama is going to raise all of your taxes, I make $38.00 an hr in my trade and I don’t know of any-one else that makes that kind of money except Dr.s and lawyers. I’m not afraid of Obama’s tax plan, but I am scared as hell of McCain’s. So all of you McCain supporters their it is in Black and White give Obama a chance and vote for a real leader. IPUAT for Obama/Biden ’08

Stop!
I am voting for obama no matter what!!
I love him!!! He loves me and will take care of me.
Don’t confuse me with the facts.
I won’t listen. You can’t make me.

I just looked into the web site “womenforjohnmmcain.com” and it’s good, very good. I can’t really determine if it’s taking itself seriously or as satire. Hopefully, satire. If you really want to find out what women are thinking about the McCain/Palin ticket, run to this website. It’s priceless and a very good female point of view re the Rep ticket.

Amanda -
I’m tired of the gender card being played on Sarah Palin’s behalf. Her gender is the least of her problems. Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin have about as much in common as Eleanor Roosevelt and Britney Spears.
If you cared about Hillary, you cared about the issues she’s cared about for over thirty years. McCain/Palin are almost polar opposites to Hillary on those issues.

Amanda – Do you think for yourself? You write that your husband is voting for McCain and you are, too. You don’t sound very independent. Even worse, you give the bratty, childish reason that you’re voting for McCain because a vast conspiracy deprived Hillary Clinton of the nomination. I don’t think you gave any thought to your support of Clinton (other than gender) and clearly you’re not giving any thought to your support of McCain, either. I guess McCain has got the ‘blank slate’ vote pretty well locked up.

Wow, Bill, that’s a pretty impressive post full of facts you took from someone else who doesn’t have a clue. I’m sure it will change quite a few minds here. McCain is paying you for this, right? By golly, he oughta be! You just may have won him the election. Send me your autograph, please?

Coyote asks: “How come Obama has yet to turn over HIS medical records?”
He’s waiting for you to turn over yours. So where are they? Exactly what are you trying to hide? Hmmmm…..

Maybe the people in PA really aren’t very smart if they vote for someone who was on video calling them “bitter, clinging to their guns and religion”. You would think PA would respond by saying Obama, you are the one who sounds bitter because you attended a BLACK LIBERATION THEOLOGY CHURCH FOR 20 YEARS pastored by one the most racist, bitter, nut-jobs in America.

We Germans admire Americans for the great country they have, mixed with all races on the face of the earth.
I think america has a great opportunity to make history by voting OBAMA who means “so many good things in one” to America & the rest of the world. Many of us in Germany are rooting for him.
If America votes McCain, then they would be living with the result that will follow: more economic melt down & misrule for the next four years.
The question to ask is; as the world looks up to america to make the right choice, are Amercans ready to choose right?
Europe & the rest of the world awaits your choice.

schmut
I’m sure europe would love to see America after Obama is done with it. Weaker military, weaker economy, no longer the world’s superpower. I lived in Europe for a while, nice place, but America is the best country in world. After Obama is finished we will look like Denmark. No thanks

Question for BO supporters. BO’s closing argument includes the statement “we are one week away from changing America”.
This statement scares me. I can understand if he said change Washington DC or change Government, but “change America”?
Can someone please help me understand what it is about America he will change? I think the principles that America was built on (liberty, personal property, personal responsibility, free market capitalism) are what makes America the greatest country in the world.
My interpretation is that (1) he doesn’t believe the capitalist system is “fair” and he is going to “change America” by moving towards the socialism-lite we see in Western Europe (i.e. class warfare and “spread the wealth around”) and (2) he doesn’t believe in the US constitution – i.e. as per his 2001 comments, he thinks the fundamental flaw of this country is that the constitution is a document of negative liberties and fails to explain what the government “must do on your behalf”.
Scary stuff. Am I misunderstanding something?

Well said Schmut!!! Revelations, whos souls are calling Obama the Messiah?
People need to remember the Lord will Provide what we need one way or the other.

Kool-aid
your missing nothing, if obama supporters were honest with themselves they would admit that they either know nothing about what obama REALLY stands for, and the ones who do know would admit that they HATE AMERICA like all liberals do.

I was born and raised in Central Pennsylvania ( Altoona )and now live in GA. I would like to know how anyone can and would vote for a man who associates with known Terroists and Trust him with the life of our families as well as our country. There will be change but not the way Obama presents it to the American people. Be carefull
what you wish for because you just might get it!

And how can anyone in western PA vote for Obama when he sat in Sanfransisco and called them hillbilly, bitter, cling to your gun rights and religion kind of people.

So is Virginia. So is Ohio. McCain needs to pray that the millions laid off forget his part in making that happen. He has to pray that retirees who have lost Two Trillion in value in retirement funds and others who have lost homes, pensions, health care, the ability to send their children to higher education, that all those people forget McCain’s part in all this. He has to pray that we forget that rich CEO’s got hundreds of millions for leading their companies into bankruptcy and bail out. He has to pray that we forget that his adviser Fiorina (who says we should let auto companies go bankrupt) got a 40 million dollar parachute mostly for laying off thousands of people. He has to pray we don’t notice that his campaign is made up of former Lobbyists and CEOs for the very companies which stabbed us in the back. He has to pray that we forget that Bush-Cheney, McCain-Gramm plumped for a philosophy which let the rich get super rich while the Middle Class lost jobs. We need someone who cares for the Middle Class, and that someone is Barack Obama.

Obama medical records – WHERE ARE THEY?
Obama college records – WHERE ARE THEY?
Oh yeah . . . any journalist daring to ask will be formally escorted off the Obama plane . . . or worse, be criminally prosecuted for telling lies about The One.
The fascist Obama Thugocracy cometh.

When have you ever heard of a presidential candidate that will not wear a flag pin or not solute our flag
what countey is running for pres. in?
The Man truley is trying to turn our country into the USSR.

Barack Obama doesn’t care about the middle class. What a joke. Barack Obama only cares about Barack Obama. Period.
And before you start blasting McCain for his economic advisors.. When Obama wanted advise on the housing and economic problems.. he went to Franklin Raines. A man who earned a 20 million dollar bonus for, among other things, inventing a bogus 9 BILLION in profits. When Obama’s advisors are the people he’s constantly ranting against.. what does that mean?

Oh, and Jenn: During all three debates, Obama wore a flag pin – McCain did not – check the tapes.

George is correct.
That’s what makes Palin campaigning in Pennsylvania so strange. Palin is not well liked by the over 50 crowd. Pennsylvania is an aging population that feels Palin is not ready.
In fact, today Palin claimed that the media writing anything negative against her is taking away her freedom of speech. Palin thinks the media should only write what she wants them to write.
Maybe Governor Palin should stop in Philadelphia to learn that the First Amendment guarantees the freedom of the press. Governor Palin, trying to control the press is a crime against the United States Constitution.

I played around with the electoral college maps, and tried every which way to Sunday to make the numbers work for McCain. I even cheated for him and gave him some states that he probably won’t win. With only Virginia and North Carolina remaining in my model, Obama is at 268 and McCain is still at 242. Reminds me of that song, “Can’t get ahead no way I try!”
Obama ’08

Well said Matthew!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

who cares about palins medical records? shes a joke and as I have always said if anyone of us ran a business like the GOP ran this campaign we’d be fired. Its like going 0-16 in football. also..when Gore couldn’t carry tennessee you knew he was toast. when McCain is fighting in Indiana, NC and is only up 4 in his homestate AND spending all his time in PA which he won’t win whos in charge…as for Palin…don’t you think Obama will send her a amazing christmas gift thanking her for her contributions to his campaign….it’ll be the gift of gifts…

Matthew
you scare me Concerned Citizen..you scare me because you drank the Kool Aid the McCain/Tina Fey ticket presented. You’ re the guy who takes the first offer a car dealer presents. Concerned Citizen? When a candidate’s shining moments are JOE THE PLUMBER(whos not a licensed plumber) and TINA FEY…need i say more……I am concerned that McCain/Palin is the best the GOP has to offer? we may be looking at 16 years of democrats in the WH….does that concern you?

Philadelphia, and to a lesser extent Pittsburgh, will keep PA blue
…and it didn’t help that Palin said she was proud to be in the Phillies home state to the crowd in Erie – she (and her staffers) obviously did not understand or take the time to learn that the rest of the state HATES us

Philly girl 64
Palins not the sharpest tool inn the shed if you havent noticed.. Sorry to say it but my ticket will be remembered this year for JOE THE PLUMBER and TINA FEY…..WOW!!!!!!!!!!
PS..I am right.. Bring in Newt..he’ll flush em all down a toilet. watch, listen and learn..worst thing for the GOP is to let Palin have another 15 minutes…..

It’s no secret that Alaskan’s have no respect for those of us who live in the ‘lower 48”, but the part that really troubles me is the association and membership that both Sarah and Todd have in the Alaska Independent Party which calls for Alaska to secede from the United States.
AIP founder, Joe Vogler has made the following comments regarding seceding and the United States in general: “The fires of hell are frozen glaciers compared to my hatred for the American government,” and “I won’t be buried under their damn flag,”
Sarah and Todd Palin have never repudiated or distanced themselves from those statements.

well dave I actually am a republican. also a card carrying NRA member. I don’t care about anything you say EXCEPT my taxes are out of control, my retirement is down 6 digits and WASH DC is bailing out the clowns on Wall street when they should have started by helping the great people in Detroit who really need it..and our country needs it also…..I would vote for a coyote right now instead of McCain..how much higher can my taxes go..my income is down 50%…you have to see my viewpoint a little
thanks for writing ..i appreciate your thoughts..I hope you can appreciate mine

Too bad Palin’s campagin snubbed Penn State’s president from attending the rally that he allowed her to have there.
Wow.. you don’t snub a local in a state you’re trying to win. I can guarantee that they’ve lost votes in Pennsylvania because of it.

Dave claims to hate socialism but he and his children attended public schools. His parents get social security checks and use medicare.
But you don’t hear him complaining about THOSE socialist programs.
Seniors should be more scared of those pure capitalists who want to take away programs that help them live when they are too old to work.

well, republicans were so h*ll bent on getting obama to produce so many documents when palin hasn’t produced a single medical record. i think it’s important as she uses a tanning bed all the time and even had one installed in the governor’s mansion. we all know that tanning leads to skin cancer like melanoma. McCain knows all about that one.
the hypocrisy is amazing.

what is with the right’s obsession of never breaking free from oil dependence altogether? why don’t they support other technologies? why are all the oil tycoons republican?
i’ll tell you what- Palin never wants america to be free from using oil cause all those alaskans won’t get their socialist permanent fund checks anymore if no one wants their oil.

And John McCain does not want to take away social security for the elderly- that is a blatant lie by the obama campaign. I would never vote for that, or for taking away a welfare safety net for those who NEED it. It’s just that the poor people i see everyday at the food kitchen down the street are all fat, smoking cigarettes and seem pretty able-bodied. In most countries a fat poor person is an oxy-moron, but not in America, the land of capitalism. Only here can my lazy cousin 20yr old cousin be on her third child that she has never EARNED a dollar to support, never worked a day in her life, play the lottery with her welfare checks, smoke cigarettes, have a cell phone…guess who she’d vote for if she wasn’t so freakin lazy…

This is the lead story in the “Investor’s Business Daily” and documents why the mortgage crises happened. It’s a bit of a “read” with a somewhat yearly blow-by-blow starting in the 1930′s creation of Fannie Mae.
Particularly concerning is the 1990′s depiction of Community Activist Obama & his ties to ACORN, and how that whole mess influenced our current (and future), problems. Pay particular attention to the time frame of 2006 when Republicans & John McCain tried to bring about needed change but were thwarted by a democratically controlled congress. I know some put Obama’s style above McCain’s substance; and that’s OK if you can live with yourself! But the article is interesting in it’s historic view of the mortgage process and social activism.
I believe every American should read it as it pertains to both our current candidates, and how they may act as a future president! I realize President Obama doesn’t have the experience to have had an earlier hand in fixing the mess, but “activist” Obama had a hand in creating it.
I have grandchildren that will be affected by the actions we take in coming elections and their abilities to obtain housing in the future may be in jeopardy by what we do now! Judge for yourself!

john mccain, sarah palin and dave are all running around trying to scare people with the word “socialism” when most people like socialist programs like public school, social security and medicare.
if john mccain hates socialism so much, then he must be lying about social security and will try to end it when he is in office.

Bird,
socialism and capitalism has failed everywhere it has tried. America is a captitalist nation, with a few socialist aspects as you have so incredibly pointed out. However, after B Hussein that could very well change. He is a socialist and yes that scares me. We are the land of fat poor people and that is from capitalism. 10 years from now after a BO presidency our country could very well resembel cuba or venezuala. Yeehaaa!!! CHANGE! CHANGE! CHANGE!

WOW–CHARACTER IT IS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1-Hang on Hang on I got it. Now McPalin is doing all they can to drag Obama’s name through the mud stating that his character is bad, socialist, communist, etc….but did you know this: Mccain is a CHEATER…Did you know that after he returned home from a prisoner of war he left his 1st wife that had just been in a life threatening car crash where her body and face was badly hurt, he left her for Cindy McCain that is 18 years younger than him…I know you don’t believe it so I will give you this link to see it for yourself: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1024927/The-wife-John-McCain-callously-left-behind.html or you can just google mccain’s first wife.

Calling on Obama to explain his RADICAL associations and socialist comments like “spread the wealth” around is not “dragging him threw the mud”. It’s called exposing someone…

Isn’t taking from the less fortunate or middle class and giving to the rich being a socialist? that makes John McCain one also Right along with palin and how she runs her share the wealth state take from the wealthy and give to everyone else.

If Mcain needs to win PA all he needs to do is discard Palin from VP ticket and put Obama in the ticket.

RealClearPolitics.com is now showing McCain’s home state, Arizona, as a toss up.

ZOGBY SATURDAY: Republican John McCain has pulled back within the margin of error… McCain outpolled Obama 48% to 47% in Friday, one day, polling. He is beginning to cut into Obama’s lead among independents, is now leading among blue collar voters, has strengthened his lead among investors and among men, and is walloping Obama among NASCAR voters. Joe the Plumber may get his license after all…
If you want to know why I suggest you drop by: http://www.middleofright.com/2008/10/top-reasons-to-vote-for-obama.html

Toss-up states in 2008
FL, NC, MO, IN, GA, MO, AZ, OH
Toss-up states in 2004
FL, OH, PA, WI, IA, MN, MI, MO,
This alone should provide a good picture of what McCain’s chances are.
But there’s more…
From 10/25-10-31, 2004, polls looked like this…
GW/Battleground (1000 LV) 10/31 – 11/1 50% 46% Bush +4
Rasmussen (3,000 LV) 10/30 – 11/1 50.2% 48.5% Bush +1.7

Battleground (1000 LV) 10/25 – 10/28 51% 46% Bush +5
…And from 10/25-10/31 2008, polls look like this…
Rasmussen Reports 10/28 – 10/30 3000 LV 2.0 51 47 Obama +4
Gallup (Traditional)* 10/28 – 10/30 2116 LV 2.0 51 43 Obama +8

CBS News/NY Times 10/25 – 10/29 1005 LV — 52 41 Obama +11

…But then again polls could be wrong, so everybody if you haven’t voted yet, if you don’t have early voting in your state, and even if you’ve voted already, let’s make sure we keep talking to people, debunk the lies, fight the smears, make sure people we know show up and vote. The GOP will try who knows what this last 4 days. We know there’s not limit to how low they can get to stay in power, so let’s keep up the good work. We have to do it to move our country forward.
Obama/Biden ’08

I voted early for Barack Obama after voting for Hillary in the primaries. It is true that Florida and Michigan should not have been disenfranchised. However just the Hillary cause is on this, she still would not quite have won the popular vote if these states were included. She was indeed a close second and had every right to stay in the primaries to the end. Puerto Rico would have put her over the top in the popular vote, but the turnout was very poor there. Next time, we should do away with caucuses and only have primaries, since primaries include far more voters, but it is impractical to change the rules midstream. Think about the right wing justices that McCain will appoint to the Supreme Court, creating a right wing super majority for years to come- this is far worse than what happened in the primaries. We should vote Obama, for the Supreme Court as well as assuring people don’t lose their health insurance from their jobs. The primaries can be run better in just four years- it would take decades to undo a right wing super majority on the Supreme Court.

*** DO THE MATH:
WILLIAMSPORT, PA 10/30/08
13,000 VS. 400+
SARAH PALIN RALLY AT BOWMAN FIELD 13,000 PEOPLE. THOUSANDS-I WAS THERE, IT WAS ELECTRIC! SHE IS THE ROCK STAR OF THE GOP!
JOE BIDEN AT LYCOMING COLLEGE 400+ PEOPLE. YES I SAID 4 HUNDRED! I TALKED TO FRIEND THAT WORKED THE BIDEN RALLY. IT IS A COLLEGE, AND HE GOT SOME COLLEGE KIDS. DO THE MATH!
PA FOR MCCAON/PALIN!

Rasmussen poll: Within a week, the Obama lead in Pennsylvania has slipped from 13 points to 4 points. Four days to go. Not so undoable, is it?

Imagine Sarah Palin as President when the 4 times cancer survivor McCain keels over. Now that is scary!
Hell, imagine if he doesn’t die. Imagine that senile old fool running the most powerful nation on earth for 4 years!

McCain said that Joe the Plumber is an American hero and his roll model. From that statement I assume that anyone that does not pay their bills and is being sued for back taxes and practices a profession without a license is a hero, “WOW”. What about us that pay our bills and pay our taxes, I guess we are just a bunch of jerks. John really needs to find himself a better class of losers than Joe the plumber and Sarah Palin.

Lanny,
Well said! Sadly, Samuel “Joe” Wurzelbacher is a lucky jerk, who has become a celebrity. Sadly, the two things the McBush campaign has accomplished is making celebities of two unworthy people: Palin and Wurzelbacher.

An Obama win has a belatedly positive side for Republicans too. With it comes a likely overwhelmingly Democrat congress willing and able to move from merely liberal to nut-job wacko leftist. That provides 2010 with great promise. Two years of a goofball socialist congress will make replacing them with Republicans enormously easier.
I can hear Barry saying now “Thank you Nancy and Harry for the tax hikes, may I have some more?” Nancy will say ‘Yes dear. How much would you like?” Harry will say “That isn’t nearly enough. We have all those evil selfish self starters and producers making waaaaay too much money. We have to put a stop to it.” And Barry will say “It just isn’t fair all those evil wealth creators are leaving our poor constituents behind. Never mind we taxed thier employers out of business. The government knows best and I am the government – oops sorry Nancy and Harry – WE are the government.”

VOTE OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATED, HE IS MOST TRUSTED TO GET US OUT OF THE MESS WE ARE IN
vote Obama

@ Robert Jenkins
It is hard to know where to start, since NONE of this is true. To compare tax plans, go to any of many many independent websites such as the Tax Policy Center. For a few specifics: 1) Obama does NOT propose changing the exemption on capital gains for personal residences. 2) Obama would increase the capital gains tax from 15% to 20% (not to 39.6% as you say) only for individuals making over $200,000/year. 3) Obama does not propose increasing income taxes on any individuals making under $200,000/year or couples making under $250,00/year. 4) The comparison of tax rates is simply made up: it does not reflect what Obama proposes and does not reflect what the Bush tax cuts did. In fact, the Bush tax cuts saved typical taxpayers less than $1,000/year but saved highest-income taxpayers millions of dollars/year. 5) Bush did NOT repeal the estate tax: it is still in effect, and will disappear for ONLY ONE YEAR — 2010 — before reverting to what it was in the year 2000. Obama proposes that estates under $3.5 Million pay NO tax. McCain proposes that estates under $4 Million pay NO tax. The number of estates that would pay ANY tax under either proposal is tiny — a few thousand. How many of us are worried that our estates will be over $3.5 Million?

McCain is DESPERATE. I live in Pittsburgh and the robocalls just keep coming. I received 2 on Friday and Saturday. They are VERY negative and very intimidating for the uninitiated. The caller was yelling and spewing out negatives about Obama. McCain, this is not how to win an election. You can only fool the Alabama of PA. Talk about the ECONOMY because I am suffering. I just got my pay on Thursday and all is gone!! How can I live till the next pay check?
Here are some of the reasons why I will NOT vote for McCain:
His economic policies stink, he is very old and had cancer more than twice and yet his running mate knows next to nothing about anything and above that has REFUSED to release her medical records which I think is scary considering the condition of her latest child (Twig or Branch?), he can’t redeem the poor image of US abroad (thanks to Bush/Cheney who endorsed him) which helps tremendously in the area of foreign policy. McCain for President? No Sir, No Madam!!! Not this time. We have taken our country back!!!

Swifty Pa—-FL/MI did not do it to themselves. Your savior campaigned here and Hillary did not. He was against those votes because he lost but accepted them during the convention because he wanted a better showing. If you are stupid enough to vote for a candidate who was selected not elected that is your problem. But watch the next time when party leaders turn on your candidate and see how you like the undemocratic democratic party. No media wants to acknowledge the many democrats who have left this sleazy party. But I can assure you that they are large in number.

The Govenor of Hawaii has sealed Obama’s birth records. Do you think I am stupid enough to believe Obama’s web site. I am sure it would contain some negative about him. Joke. Pointing anyone to his web site to learn the truth shows the level of intelligence of persons voting for Obama. If you overlook Wright, Resko, and other things you can see and hear first hand, then you have no mind of your own. Follow the pied piper at your own peril.

I live in Pa.And I can tell you that McCain will not win Pa. He will not. Phila,Pitt, And my city of Harrisburg are going to pull Obama into the winners circle. So McCain can get real and come back down to earth, then take off his rose colored glasses. And when he does he will realize that he will be packing to go home. That’s it, end of story. I was born in Pa. and of course i still live here. I can tell you the pulse of my state and the pulse beats to Obama… greg

Palin’s staff is creating doctor appointment dates that didn’t exist, making double and triple sure that she wasn’t at work during the times they are choosing. Wouldn’t want an appointment to be at the same time she was attending a meeting on official Alaskan business.
