      The dumbocrat dribble and kindergarden whining is unbelievable. Sounds like the pot calling the kettle black. Racism knows no color. There are White racist,Black racist,Brown racist, ECT. To some it is a hatred, to some it is distrust, and to others it is a tool of deceit. The last thing the USA needs at this time is an Amateur. There is no time for on the job training. More Socialist debt is definitely not what we need. Research what and who you vote for, check your resources, do not buy into the hype, think and reason for yourself. Being what one "guppy" called an old f*rt, I have already survived this type situation (Carter), and really shiver at the thought of having to go through it again. Therefore the inexperience definitely concerns me. The Socialist leaning is a big red flag. Obama's record shows nothing to recommend him. Pretty words and rhetoric may soothe the soul but do nothing to solve problems.

        Honestly, I don't think there's anything overtly racist going on. The McCain campaign is attempting to cast Obama as the 'other', certainly. That may cast a net that snares racists, yes, but I don't think that is the intent.

        Regardless of the two books Obama has written about his life, regardless of the intense scrutiny he as received, we still see articles about 'Who is Obama?' What this intrinsically implies is that there are questions Obama has yet to answer. I think what it really means is that there is a 'truth' that has been constructed around Obama and unless he 'admits' to it, we will never really know the 'true Obama'.

        Brilliant strategy, but I think it's backfiring. Obama as been noting but frank about every single question presented to him about his character, his policies and his associations. I hope McCain follows through with his intent to 'call' Obama on his association with Ayers during the next debate. Obama has only to answer, "Senator, why are you asking me about someone I barely know when the economy is on fire?"

          The only racism I see is in the voters, not the candidates.

          Amervtrn: you spoke correctly of racism. But the technical definition of racism, as in, someone's private feelings, are not really the point. The point is that racism, in our lifetime, led a lot of people to murder. The reason racism is such a white person's issue is the history of what white people have done BECAUSE of being racist. If white people had not killed so many black people for being black, we wouldn't be paying the price of being the typical subject of the "racist" label.

            Very strange that any time I pick up a newspaper or listen to news it is mostly a BLACK person doing the murdering! Blacks murder blacks as well as whites. When people like you start looking at the person and not their color of skin the world will be a much better place. The reason I do not want Obama to be president is not his color but his values. He seems to favor worshiping the Islam faith rather than the Christian faith. Islam followers behead anyone who does not worship their God. I prefer to worship our God who is a loving God. Just be very careful who you vote for!!!

            We already have socialized roads and highways. We have socialized sewers and water. We have socialized schools. We have socialized police, fire protection, military, and prosecutors. We have socialized air traffic control and national parks. We have socialized banking (as of today). We have socialized radio/tv spectrum… The list goes on and on.

            So "my friend," your fear of socialism is simply a bogeyman for you. This really isn't about socialism, is it? The whole socialism argument is code for "I don't want my money going to violent lazy black people as welfare. You think socialism means welfare, don't you?

              Just thought I would mention the socialistic bailout of the trillion dollar bust.

              Socialism for the disgustingly filthgy rich who creat the mess, but trickle down (urine) capitalism and stable cleaning for everyone else?

              Oops!! Forgot. The bailout socialism is only temporary. The oversight regulations WILL Be lifted!!

              What can be more socialist than the Federal government bailing out (giving money) to huge corporations(banks,this time) with billions of dollars? Once again it's the Republican party that's doling out dollars to private companies that paid their c.e.o.'s millions of bucks to run the company into the ground to bail them out.The Republicans talk a great game,but their true symbol is not an elephant,but the 'hammer & sickle'.They seem to be a bunch of suit wearing, 'Give the money to the wealthy' Communist.(Remember the savings & loan bailout,"Old Fart?"How much of that money did they allocate to you?

                how many times do i have to read this exact same post? word for word

                come up with something different - just because that repetitive bull works

                when the talking heads on the radio and tv do it, doesnt mean its

                going to work here - and its losing its effectiveness in the media as well

                  I just hope that if I'm ever in trouble with the law, I can simply shrug off the findings of an investigation in one day and go on pretending my behavior was acceptable.

                    First of all she wasn't in trouble with the law simply because it wasn't a legal issue. The "findings" came out of a kangaroo court panel to satisfy their own personal vendetta agenda and using public funds to do so. Yes, we all know that the legislative body uses public funds in the investigative process but this one wasn't necessary and is very much invalid because it's the Personnel Board that is responsible for investigating complaints of an ethical nature. Get your facts straight before posting your vitriolic comments. Palin and her husband will be cooperating 100% with the Board's investigation at the end of this month BTW!

                      "The "findings" came out of a kangaroo court panel to satisfy their own personal vendetta agenda and using public funds to do so."

                      The findings came from a bi-partisan, mostly Republican appointed investigation team. Palin and her husband, along with the other people McCain Lawyers asked to refuse testimony should be prosecuted for refusing a summons.

                      She said she'd cooperate fully with this investigation, so it begs the question what's different about the 'Personnel Board' investigation. Could it be that she only wants to cooperate now with the investigation she's already been assured would find 'nothing' ?

                      I'm frankly tired of politicians refusing testimony because of "state secrets," "executive privilege" or various other illegal excuses (illegal because the supreme court has decided in the case of BushCo that they are illegal excuses). All it does is set the most dangerous people in the world out of the reach of the law. It's not good for America no matter who is in office, or which 'side' is refusing to comply with the law.

                      If the Bozo Obama Hussen becomes president, I will no longer be a proud American. Obama will "Never" be my president. You liberal idiots need to get off your ass and get a job and stop sucking off the working class. Quit expecting something for nothing.

                      I'm sure our founding fathers are turning in their graves. This country is turning into a third world crap whole thanks to the democrats

                        That is some well thought out commentary, chuckie.

                        You epitomize the worst of this country.

                        You support of failure and disregard for solutions is typical of the mentally challenged majority of the current Republican party.

                        You ludicrously claim that 'liberal idiots' need to stop "sucking off {sic} the working class", yet your failure to recognize that the working class is spending FAR more of their money supporting the 'investing class' of ultra wealthy at the hands of idiotic domestic policy (think war, oil and defense spending) while building the planets largest deficit!

                        Economics 101 is a good starting point. Deficits do not pay for themselves, nor do they just disappear.

                        Perhaps YOU should quit expecting something for nothing.

                                The only people talking about race are leftist liberals. This was a strategy that the Obama campaign devised at the on set (against Hillary) and it has continued as a tool to bar legitimate inquiry into the background and associations of Barack Obama.

                                  Oh please! Obama has been hammered over and over again about Wright, Ayers, Resko, his 'Muslim upbringing', etc. To say there hasn't been legitimate inquiry is laughable. The ONLY reason you don't consider it 'legitimate' is that the answers didn't conform to your version of the 'truth'.

                                    I seem to remember reading one of your posts where you referred to Mr Obama as 'Monkey boy". Maybe I'm wrong but that does sound a bit racist to me. There were several other references to scratching fleas. Unless you're a liberal Democrat I think that qualifies you as a racist, actually lets call a spade a spade you are a racist. We are so proud of you for that, what a fine example for a American citizen.

                                  Dream on democrats and liberal media. McCain will win this election because the people is not buying the CNN polls and the forcing of the "race issue". The liberal media is trying to make us believe that if you are not supporting Obama, then it must be because you are a racist. when in fact the only reason is that he is simply not prepared to handle the task and to be the leader of the free world. His whole campaign is just a huge dog and pony show.

                                  VOTE MCCAIN - USA!!!!

                                    Um... listen backwoods, you're losing. Accept the fact that Americans are finally realizing what they need to survive, and guess what, its NOT McSAME and PSYCHO! OBAMA and BIDEN 08'. Now, there's change you can count on. Not voting for Obama doesn't make you a racist, it just shows how OUT OF TOUCH and STUPID you are.

                                      They aren't just losing. They're losing *it* entirely. The spinning and lying and desperation...These people have no shame.

                                          Buying votes? Could YOUR vote be bought? Interesting you have such a low, low opinion of your fellow Americans.

                                                  After all, intellectualism is elitist.

                                                    McCain buying votes, you say...? I don't think so. Mr. Obama just explained how ACORN could have made those stupid mistakes in voter registration...He knows!
                                                    Because he's been there before...in the front lines for ACORN...!
                                                    Now he's using ACORN (because this org. is ran by "liberal bigots") following the tricks of the trade from the master strategist Obama,
                                                    See the picture...? How naive can you be.....!?
                                                    Just follow the dots....Obama's alliances with local-breed anti-americans, like Ayers,
                                                    pastor Wright...? You want more..?
                                                    Then ask the mainstream media to do their investigative reporting, with fairness and quest for the truth!

                                                      ANYONE that knows ANYTHING about the voter registration process "knows".

                                                      There is NO "voter fraud".

                                                      NO one has voted!

                                                      ACORN runs voter REGISTRATION drives. They do NOT handle ANY election balloting or voting.

                                                      Some voter REGISTRATION cards/forms are suspect or fraudulent. ACORN is required BY LAW to turn in EVERY form that is filled out, and they even flag the forms that look suspect or suspicious before they are turned in!

                                                      The REGISTRATION forms that turn out to be bogus/invalid will be DISCARDED, and those "people" will NEVER vote!

                                                      THAT is why there is no "voter" fraud.

                                                      YOU are the naive one, because you listen to drivel from the likes of FOX News and you don't even bother to check any of it for accuracy or truth.

                                                      McCain SOUGHT the endorsements of John Hagee (who called the Catholic Church the "great wh*re") and Rod Parsley (who said that America was formed to destroy Islam).

                                                      You want more????

                                                      If alt or anyone else, still believes John McCain is going to win:

                                                      Let them go to http://www.intrade.com/

                                                      Ten shares of McCain stock cost $23 on Monday..
                                                      If you think McCain will win, invest $23,000 now and collect $100,000 in 3 weeks

                                                      Go for it, alt!

                                                      Or, you could wait till after tonights debate; the price will probably drop nicely.

                                                        Yeah I guess McCain opulled out of Michigan because he has it all sewed up right?

                                                        Sptu6, Obama is winning handily because it appears Americans are tired of corporate socialism and transferring their wealth to the rich. I knew Joe Sixpack would eventually show some common sense...go Obama.

                                                          Sabre, Joe Sixpack won't be voting for Obama. You're confusing him with Joe Boone's Farm, who recently registered to vote in six different precincts.

                                                            I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO KNOW WHAT WILL BE THE REACTION OF THE WORLD WHEN OBAMA IS ELECTED. IF BY CHANCE HE DOESN'T WIN, WE PEOPLE THAT IS SUPPORTING HIM WILL BE OK, DISAPPOINTED BUT OK. BUT THE PEOPLE THAT IS SUPPORTING MCCAIN IS SUBJECT TO HAVE A MYOCARDIAL INFARTION. MCCAIN SUPPORTERS CAN'T IMAGINE THIS WORLD RAN BY AN AFRICAN AMERICAN. IT'S OK I PROMISE. PLEASE DONT HAVE A HEART ATTACK. LIFE DOES GO ON. OBAMA SUPPORTERS STAY STRONG. OBAMA 08

                                                              I don't know about the rest of the world, but if McCain wins, I'm going to get as far away from the border as I can.

                                                              I don't want to get caught in the rip tide, as the US circles the bowel and disappears into the septic tank of history.

                                                                I don't think McCain voters are that excited by their candidate. They will be disappointed on some issues, but it won't be a big big deal. They didn't really have much to choose from. Romney was a combination of left and right, but on the wrong issues. He was probably the strongest overall candidate, although I thought Ron Paul was the best republican.

                                                                I don't understand the excitement over Obama, either. If he wins, I'll just be working hard to stop him from letting people like Soros and Bloomberg run fast and loose and roughshod over the constitution, buying their totalitarian agendas with their billions. I'll keep his feet to the fire on the U.N. and on separation of church and state. I thought Clinton was the democrats' strongest candidate.

                                                                I wasn't excited about Carter, either, but he was affable like Obama. I've never been a fan of Bush (I couldn't see what people saw in him, either).

                                                                I'm not too worried, irrespective of who wins. At least we'll have someone more flexible than Bush in the White House, and I think that will be a good thing for foreign policy. Things are going to be tough for ordinary people, no matter who wins.

                                                                This is supposed to be an election for president not PR rock star. You are hiring the CEO of Firm USA. Who do you want to run the firm, a manager with over 25 years experience or the newly hired stockboy? If you complain about Palin's experience to be VP candidate where does that leave Obama? She has more real experience than he has. Or is Obama really running as Biden's VP?

The election produced a different picture. The Republican team of Ronald Reagan and George Bush was swept into office in a landslide victory with about 51% of the popular vote (and 489 electoral votes) to Carter's 42% (49 electoral votes) and Anderson's 7% (no electoral votes). Here is the faith in McCain.The dumbocrat dribble and kindergarden whining is unbelievable. Sounds like the pot calling the kettle black. Racism knows no color. There are White racist,Black racist,Brown racist, ECT. To some it is a hatred, to some it is distrust, and to others it is a tool of deceit. The last thing the USA needs at this time is an Amateur. There is no time for on the job training. More Socialist debt is definitely not what we need. Research what and who you vote for, check your resources, do not buy into the hype, think and reason for yourself. Being what one "guppy" called an old f*rt, I have already survived this type situation(Carter years), and really shiver at the thought of having to go through it again. Therefore the inexperience definitely concerns me. The Socialist leaning is a big red flag. Obama's record shows nothing to recommend him. Pretty words and rhetoric may soothe the soul but do nothing to solve problems.

There was a blip or bump or whatever in the polls and this was allegedly a sign that it was curtains for the Obama campaign. What a difference a few weeks makes.

                                                                                            Hmmmmmm. I am so sick and tired of this bogus polls. They tell us nothing.

                                                                                            Remember Bush was behind in 2004 and won

                                                                                            Reagan was behind in 1980 by 13% and won.

                                                                                            These polls are so statistically insignificant they are embarassing.

                                                                                            Palin has fallen? Hmmmmmmmmm I habitually see her getting 15,000 to 20,000 at her rallys #'s Biden could only dream of.

                                                                                            Don't believe the hype. These polls are conducated by liberal colleges and liberal newspapers in highly populated democratic zipcodes.

The current populace of America is about 32% Republican, 38% Democrat, 28% Independent, and the rest 'other'. The sample is random and therefore supposed to be representative of the populace as a whole.

                                                                                              You are correct, the only poll that matters is the one on Nov. 4th (or 5th, if you are in a black community and get a Republican mailer).

Please. The republicans have singlehandedly destroyed this country with their fascism. And you are responsible for installing it. Some American you are.

                                                                                                      Becareful what you wish for because you just might get it.

                                                                                                      = o)

                                                                                                      For the life of me I have no clue why so many liberals hate Palin. She has never done anything to hurt anyone on these polls. She is not part of the corrupt Washington Political machine and she doesnt socialize with liberal media.

                                                                                                      If anything, Obama, Biden, and the left media are being racist against her.

                                                                                                      For those of you who call Sarah dumb look at your Biden.

                                                                                                      1) Wanted to divide Iraq into 3 separate countries before the surge and got laughed at out of the room. Patraeus basically called him a moron.

                                                                                                      2) said you cant got into a 7/11 without speaking Indian now a days.

                                                                                                      3) said President FDR gave a tv speech about the stockmarket crash in 1929 to Katie Couric when in fact there FDR was only a governor and there were no tv's

                                                                                                      4) Said he got shot at while being in a helicopter in Afghanistan and the chopper had to make an emergency landing. As John Kerry said, bad weather caused to land early.

                                                                                                      5) Biden continues to say he was raised in Scranton when in fact he spent 99% of his childhood life in Delaware.

                                                                                                      6) Last debate Obama called out corporate credit card companies for having their HQ's in Delaware for the tax exemptions. Ummm that is where is Biden is from and he hasnt done anything to change it.

                                                                                                      7) Back in Feb 2008 during the Democratic Primary Biden only got 2% of the vote in Delaware. To me that tells me his own people cant stand him.

                                                                                                      I will take a Palin who is for lowering social security taxes, lowering income taxes, lower capital gains taxes, lowering dividends, lowering gas prices by drilling while increasing the taxes oil companies pay to redistribute their wealth to everyday folk vs a Biden who is so wrapped up in Washington it is scary any day of the week.

                                                                                                      What does Biden offer America? he has been in the Senate longer than McCain and is affiliated with over 100 lobbyist.

                                                                                                              Lemme get this straight: Palin is for increasing taxes on oil companies while McCain is for giving oil companies a $2 billion tax break? Palin wants to "...redistribute their wealth to everyday folk ..."? Isn't that the dreaded 'Socialism'? Who, exactly, will you be voting for? McCain or Palin?

She said she visited countries where she only changed planes Not to mention the bridge to nowhere and a whole host of other claims that were quickly debunked.

It goes with the human territory. I watched this same thing happen with Jimmy Carter, and people were absolutely jumping for joy because he was going to save us from the dirty politics of Richard Nixon--although Ford was running.

                                                                                                                    I saw it in the venomous hatred towards Bill Clinton. I see that same venomous hatred directed at Palin, for whatever reason. Every misstep is overblown, while Obama missteps are ignored. Just ideology, pure and simple. And I don't think we are as glued to the party platforms as the parties would lead us to believe.

Personal targeting and scapegoating became a central organizing principle for IAF-trained community organizers, instigated by Alinsky’s lieutenant and successor Ed Chambers. Rooney makes clear that the IAF is brutally cynical about the constant need for fresh victims. Obama’s IAF thus made it official policy that political opponents were to be turned into personal enemies (or “ripe targets”).

                                                                                                                    We are presently seeing this “politics of vilification” by members of the Left in their targeted hate against Sarah Palin, who is a personal victim of IAF-style programs that build animosity against their political opponents. This method that the IAF employs is profoundly wrong morally. Barack Obama, an IAF community organizer, has not spoken of a single fault with the IAF.

Cicero Illinois was mob headquarters, south side of Chicago was highest crime rates in the Nation....all in the 60's and 70's

                                                                                                                            They were there in the 60 & 70 when Obama was a child.......

                                                                                                                            If it's so bad why do they keep electing "Daley's"and Dems ??

This family is of very strong republican nature. The mother of the family and I were talking one day, and i was joking, accusing her of voting for Mayor Daley. She went on to tel me that anyone with any sense voted for Daley, because if you voted for him, you would certainly not run out of heating fuel (coal) the following winter. She said that he ran the city very well, and for that reason most voters were loyal to him

What he doesn't tell you is that we built up huge state deficits under 26 straight years of Republican governors. Under 26 straight years of Republican state rule we continued to spend outlandishly, we helped their wealthy and connected friends, we sold driver's licenses to unqualified truck drivers to raise campaign funds, we refused to raise taxes on the wealthy to pay for anything, we refused to fund schools, we refused to fund police and fire and teacher retirement funds. Most of this, by the way, in direct violation of the state constitution. It was 26 years of Republican governors who were all about helping big business, helping themselves, helping their families and helping millionaires. And now we're in a big mess. In many ways Illinois is a microcosm of nearly 30 years of voodoo economics sold as populist remedies. Sound familiar? Obama has opposed these guys here, and gained a hell of a lot of respect for it.

Obama intended no offense to his alma mater (and none was taken). But his remark raises the question just why he thinks the lessons of community organizing exceed the lessons of an Ivy League education.

                                                                                                                              The “community organizer” training Obama received in the mid-1980s, and that he continues to praise today as central to how he will govern if elected president,

                                                                                                                                If you've ever had a true hands on job, you would know that there is no teacher like experience. To learn theory, you get it in school or college from books. To earn real life experience, you must experience real life. Does a doctor learn more about surgery from 'reading' Grey's Anatomy or by actually opening and getting into a person's body. Don't be (or act)naive, hands on life experiences teaches and shows you things that books and teachers don't think of or are unable to teach.

I thought the "movement" was all about how experience was a bad thing. Just like Obama, what you "believe" really depends on who you are talking to at the moment.

Id prefer someone who has the background in theory but realizes what Joe SixPack goes thru evgerydy to make ends meet. That AINT McSame.

I checked all my paperwork and I have no idea what you are talking about. By law, my mortgage company has to inform me of any change to my payments and the government as no authority whatsoever to change what I agreed to. My property taxes may go up (they didn't), but that's about it.

                                                                                                                                            Republicans theorized that raising the rate of home ownership would create more conservative voters, as Margaret Thatcher was said to have done in Britain by selling public housing flats to their tenants. Thus, George W. Bush campaigned in 2004 under the rubric ”the ownership society.” As the President explained in his eye-glazing prose style:

How many controversies does it take to make his supporters realize he's a fake. By the way did he ever produce his legal birth certificate?

Sure, some of is policies are socialistic, particularly around healthcare. Frankly, I'd prefer my taxes go toward taking care of those who are in need, instead of the hyper-wealthy robber barons.

They come, they submit stupid slanders, intending just to make people angry, and then they disappear.

                                                                                                                                                        Is there anything propeller can do about these fools (or this one fool for all I know)? I'll take aniokly or automan or sortofcute anyday compared to these mindless, unidentified individual(s) who appear, disappear and then possibly reappear under a different name the next day.

If Sen. Obama is elected I wish him well. I just hope he shares Oprah's wealth with me! In fact he can share all of Hollywood's wealth with the entire state Louisiana. By the way the most corrupt Governor is not Governor Palin. It is Governor Edwin Edwards (D) of Louisiana. If I could fire my former brother-in-law I would do it in a minute. Maybe he's a loser! Conservatives out there, if McCain loses...remember President Obama will share the wealth with us, including his own...

Are you gonna elect the next leader of the once "free" world someone who's qualification is 143 days as a Congressman? Are you going to elect someone who is dead set on turning the USA into a socialist country????

Check out the definition of change, when Obama preaches change, does he mean socialism check that definition out also.

All they want to do is attack Sen. Obama's character and ignore the real issues that most Americans are concerned about. Sure, implying that Sen. Obama a terrorist or a secret Muslim plays well to the base - just ask the numerous people who show up to root on Gov. Palin - but it doesn't address the real concerns of the majority of Americans.
                                                                                                                                                                      McCain/Palin have hung their hat on an issue that most Americans believe is silly and out of touch with reality. Obama/Biden on the other hand is focused on real issues and looking forward to the challenges that we as a country will be facing in the next several years. It's just too bad that McCain/Palin supporters won't hold their candidates to the same high standards that the Obama/Biden supporters hold their candidates to.

They tend to sway the less intelligent voters when it comes to election time. I mean just because a person is ahead in the poll doesn't mean you should vote for them. Unfortunately many poeople do just that.

Their take is that McCain has a good chance of physically opting out of the Presidency, if elected, and Obama has a chance of being assassinated by the right-wing wingnuts. That made, in their minds, the Vice-presidential candidates more important. Congressman Lewis's remarks don't seem out of line as many have felt this undercurrent (heehaw racist anger)way before he spoke.

First, the economy is the critical issue in the minds of these voters, and McCain has shown no competency in this area at all. Second, McCain’s running mate Sarah Palin is in total free fall. Palin has negative approval rating in every state, and her approval rating ranges from 37%-39%. None of the people surveyed in these polls believe that she is qualified to be vice president. Only, 41%-44% of respondents believe that she is qualified to be VP. In contrast, Joe Biden’s unfavorable rating ranges from 22%-27%, and 76%-81% of those asked believe that he is qualified to be vice president.

Then she had the audacity to claim the the question was viciously posed to her by Katie Couric as a form of "gotcha journalism". This is the best choice McCain could make for a running mate?

After their support for George W. Bush, where they all made one of the worst political decisions of their lives! It defies all reason to support another Republican that has a history of supporting George W. Bush's failed policies! What are they thinking? It's time to think for one's self, not according to political party! A screwdriver does not fix a flat tire?

                                                                                                                                                                                    I ask, is there ONE THING that George W. Bush and his administration handled adequately or did right? Other than managing, legally or illegally, to get themselves into office in the first place?

                                                                                                                                                                                    George W. Bush has been and will be remembered as one of the greatest disasters in American political history! He and Rove and Cheney have managed to turn a greatcountry against itself! It's become a red vs blue civil war! What a contribution!

Perpetuating Bush policies is sheer lunacy, and the only way that can happen is to elect John McCain.

Please "GO BACK AND REMEMBER 9/11. " Americans had enough of being the impotent joke of the world. If George Bush hadn't responded in a forceful way ... Americans would have drummed him out of office. The polls were clear ... the people were heard . You have the option of changing yor mind ...George Bush doesn't.. George Bush followed the course--to victory. The financial crisis is no more George Bush's fault than a rainy day. I believe history will be kind to George Bush .

I believe history will be kind to George Bush ."

                                                                                                                                                                                        I think that McCain should come out and say so publicly.

                                                                                                                                                                                        Tonight will be a good opportunity to tell America how great GWB was as president and why he generally supported his financial programs.

                                                                                                                                                                                        Meanwhile McCain is saying that the GOP is a barrel of rotten apples and ONLY he is the good apple.

                                                                                                                                                                                        How can any Republican vote for a man who claims that the GOP is rotten?

                                                                                                                                                                                          furthermore, bush's "forceful" response failed to capture bin laden and involved us in yet another god awful mess of a war that has not served the interests of our country and for which there is now, no option for "victory".

                                                                                                                                                                                          and while bush can't be held entirely to blame for the economic crisis, he is the latest and worst of republican presidents who are fully responsible due to the unrelenting drive to deregulation. what they forgot is that those regulations were in place for good reason...as a check on human greed.

                                                                                                                                                                                          history is written by the winners, not by losers like the shrub.

You have a guy who finished at the top of his class at Harvard being compared to a guy who finished at the bottom of his class at another school. Who has proven that they can get the job done and who is full of rhetoric? Easy choice! Each week I am appalled that one candidate mimicks the other candidate. Why can't the bottomfeeder ever come up with any original ideas. Maybe because he doesn't have any? I have watched one candidate consistently take the high road and often the philosophically sound approach while the other candidate proves to be erratic, unsure and willing to please the latest whim of the popular polls. Only one candidate has proven throughout the election to be cool as a cucumber under pressure while the other mounts one personal attack after another. One begins to wonder whether anything is sacred anymore. One candidate is running the campaign of a 'winner' while the other declared himself a 'loser' from the very beginning. There is only one leader in this race and it's not the 'one' whose pointing fingers.

I DO NOT want Obama as my president not because of the color of his skin but he does not worship our God and it is well known his Islam religion is a very cruel group of people. If you want to have freedom of religion and freedom of speech then please do not vote for him! Think long and hard for you just may get who you vote for! I do not want to even think of being beheaded but this is what the Islams do if you do not worship their God. I do not trust a man who will not salute our American flag nor wear an American pin because he may offend some other country. Let those people stay in their country and let us stay in ours and defend all that our forefathers have faught for!

None of his files have been released. His birth certificate is said to be a doctored version of his sister's. His relatives in Kenya say he is a natural born citizen of Mombasa, Kenya. His mother was too far along in her pregnancy to fly back to Hawaii and was born in Kenya, the live birth registration was done days later in Hawaii. His certified copy of original birth has not been released. His college records have not been released for: Occidental College and Columbia College, Columbia Thesis not released and supposedly lost, Harvard records not released, Harvard Law Review articles are generally not available, Medical records not released, Illinois State Senate schedule not available. No major accomplishment as a lawyer or senator. Barry Soetoro visited Pakistan in 1981 probably using his Indonesian passport, since US citizens were restricted during that time. Obama's registration in Indonesia under the name "Barry Soetoro" also raises questions as to whether he adopted that name in the U.S. at any time. According to Illinois state filings, when Obama registered as an attorney in 1991, under the name Barack Obama, he stated he did not have any former names.

                                                                                                                                                                                                    And about your criticism of Democrats blindly accepting whatever Obama says, - you don't want to make the same mistake, do you?

                                                                                                                                                                                                    His relatives in Kenya say he is a natural born citizen of Mombasa, Kenya .

                                                                                                                                                                                                    It will shock and dismay you, to learn you were repeating someone's lie. Ouch.

                                                                                                                                                                                                    google it but avoid the stuff from anonymous screen people with names like 'dieObamadie'.

                                                                                                                                                                                                    he stated he did not have any former names
