CBS Evening News: Why Florida Is One Of The Final Battleground States

McCain''s $300 billion housing bailout is socialist, but only if you are a banker.

Sorry legalhemi, Obama did not write ''''I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.'''' Here is the accurate and more complete quote: "Of course, not all my conversations in immigrant communities follow this easy pattern. In the wake of 9/11, my meetings with Arab and Pakistani Americans, for example, have a more urgent quality, for the stories of detentions and FBI questioning and hard stares from neighbors have shaken their sense of security and belonging. They have been reminded that the history of immigration in this country has a dark underbelly; they need specific assurances that their citizenship really means something, that America has learned the right lessons from the Japanese internments during World War II, and that I will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction."

You seem to have a frail grasp of the "Big Picture"!

Why is it I hear the media say it is towards the end of this election, we are suppose to hear and see negative. Why is that alright? Why is scare tactics and lies okay? We need to take a look, we have 4 yrs to change the way elections are held, and the way Americans have to worry if there vote really counts, or has it been tampered with, or if the registry in this country is legal or not, and fix it, fix the *** thing, block the loopholes and kick there behinds into jail if found to tamper with our basic rights. Sick of all of them.They are a disgrace from Bush to Mc Same his campaign was so negative and not once does he explain his issues and people think he is great, he is a angry old man.Palin is Cheney all over again, a bitter sarcastic lying racist.

You know what I have noticed over the past month...as McCain''s numbers drop, so does his class and dignity.

The McCain campaign and friends are so desperate to paint Obama into this anti-American terrorist. Its so ridiculous that its funny. Then I see people blogging and they actually feed into it!

Im from NYC and no one is going to tell me or any New Yorker about terrorists. THEY LANDED IN MY BACKYARD. To even compare Barack Obama to something even remotely close to this is appalling, ignorant and disrespectful.

could it be acorn, spread the wealth around, joe the plumber, using scare tactics over social security and medicare?

I smell a rat a republican rat trying to sway an election again.

[tannerbird]

Virginia vote what you think is best for you no matter who you vote for HAVE A NICE DAY!

[powersmaker]

the answer to the article is "blue".

Republican Party has moved WAY to the right ... it''s like the catholiuc church ... it needs to modernize. That''s why they have such a hard time keeping moderate voters. It''s become the party of exclusion, and it is generally revolting to most tolerent people. simple.

[rayreyns]

Palin has ties to a terrorist organization that wants to secede from the union...how about that flag wavers!

[tannerbird]

I have opened a new file every day for a long time and i am down to only three republicans left i am going to save them for the first of the month and do them all in one day nov4.

[rayreyns]

yeah teddy but one thing is differnt...you had an IQ over 85...sarah does not.

[virginiablow]

I believe Florida will go to McCain. I''m going to vote for Ombama even though I''m a white Republican woman.

The Republican "buddy boy whisper campaign" is in full force everywhere. You feel "marked" if you aren''t voting for McCain.

The GOP mail in vote card I received which was endorsed by Govenor Crist basically told you that Evil and Terrorist will kill you if you don''t vote Republican this year. WHY ISN''T THIS CONSIDERED CRIMINAL ACTIVITY IN THIS COUNTRY?

You would not believe the accusations and lies they are spreading over the Panhandle. Its so much racial hate that its just plan scary.

I am very disappointed that my government supporting something like this and allowing it to happen.

In such hard times we need to be lifted up and given hope to work together to make the world a better place for all. The elderly, poor, and middle class really need Obamas economic and healthcareplans right now. We definitely need the Obama/Biden foreign policy issues and we need TO END THE WAR IN IRAQ. The Repubicans are using lies and fears to justify the war again!

I hate to admit it, but I believe these horrible, criminal lies and accusations about Obama are working and have shifted people here away from the facts of McCain/Palin and the economy.

Hmmm, so Sarah Palin is not qualified but Obama is?

I don''t think so!

[tannerbird]

Anyone that has a job and wants to pay more taxes vote for McCain he is going to TAX your healthcare plan and give you a 5.000 tax break wipe out medicare,medicade. YOU DO NOT PAY TAXES ON YOUR HEALTHCARE PLAN NOW THIS IS A PHILL GRAMM THING HE HAS TRIED THIS BEFORE. If Phill Gramm and McCain have there way the older Americans will be wiped out. The people that are retired get to pay this to five years down the road health care has took a rise in cost not to worry you get to pay more taxes on your healthcare but you still will get your TAX BREAK of 5.000 that is now worth 2.500 if not less no medicare no medicade. this will be there way of getting rid of the older people in this country it will be a legal form of [GENOCIDE] !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

posts random Republican lie all day every day

[jswilliams451]

Maybe we just know different farmers. The ones you know are voting McCain. The ones I know are voting Obama.

Go figure. Funny how it works out that way.

[misha128-2009]

Most Jews will not vote for Obama. They know he will sit back and watch their Homeland be destroyed.

after israel takes out iran''''s nuclear program just before the election, florida will be red.

Posted by hclinton2012 at 09:32 AM

Not as long as McCain and his advisers keep tinkering with Social Security and Medicare. Besides did you not hear of the Israeli efforts to convince younger Jewish Americans to convince their older counter parts TO VOTE FOR OBAMA. Looks like the situation in both the older community and the Jewish community do not favor Senator McCain.

[misha128-2009]

I know many Farmers in Iowa. None of them are voting for Obama.

Posted by mr22585 at 09:43 AM

Obama is campaigning hard to get the Nebraska electoral vote from the second district of Nebraska. Evidence of his effect is that there are now commercials running in that district supporting a vote for the Republican Congressman as well as Senator Obama -- another Republican trying to ride on Obama''s coattails.
