Oh yeah, Obama is scary, remember the right wing Scary Kerry. When you run out of material, you have to mud sling. Well that old tired junk won''t fly anymore, we aren''t scared like the righties.

Obama is probably smarter and wiser than the entire GOP, put together. Just look at their record for the last 8 years of rule, it speaks for itself.

I have to say, what kind of fools would want 4 more years of bush? Just keep voting for the big wigs against your own self interests. Smart!

Ah that old foolish chestnut, of course, comparing the Dems to commies, kinda like comparing the Repubs to Nazis...just as accurate too.

"Note the way Obama won his state senate seat. He could teach Mugabe a trick or two.

Probably not, Mugabe didn''t follow the rules, Obama followed them to the letter, big difference. Interesting analogy even if it is incorrect.

Huh so where did you get these numbers?

What I find is that it depends on how you count the votes. If you take just the popular vote Obama is ahead. If you count in the caucus states, Hillary is ahead. If you count the caucus states, MI and FL, Obama is ahead.

Looks like declaring Hillary ahead in the popular vote is a bit problematic since she''s not.

Keep in mind that if the Hillary supporters are seen to be supporting McCain and Obama loses, Hillary will take the blame and that will be the end of her political career. Feel free to vote McCain but it would be a shame if he won and Hillary lost...permanently.

To RandyMason: Do you really believe Rev. White and Rev. Pfleger will vote for McCain?

Obama may well represent a youth movement. The two most successful youth movements of the last century are Hitler Nazism and Mao''s Cultural Revolution. With the rhetoric of his friends, Obama looks pretty scary.

So the Republicans are going to reform the tax code to increase taxes on the rich, reform the health care system to a universal coverage system, end the war in Iraq and review NAFTA? Really...where did you read that?

For the past 20 yrs. John McCain has attended an Arz. Baptist Church and Refuses to be Baptized, McCain says that its a Private Matter and this same Baptist Church Refuses to list him as a Member, based on its Baptismal & Professing with the Tongue, that `Jesus Christ is Your Lord & Personal Savior`


Mccain refuses to do either !!

Therfore McCain is Not a True Sanctified of the Spirit, Washed in Holy Water & Acknowledge Baptized Member of this Arz. Church.


McCain is right out the Omen Movie, as a Matter of fact, McCain`s Action or Lack therof, is one He!! of an Omen, I mean Sign !!

This article makes it seems like a complicated matter. It''s all very simple: Vote for McCain if you like the past 7 1/2 years and want to continue the same course. Vote for Obama if you don''t.

McCain can win over mean-spirited racists and ignorant fundamentalists and Obama can win over all people regardless of skin color or religion who want a new direction. By new direction, I mean a government that is more interested in designing itself, than redesigning the rest of the world. Quite frankly, the rest of the world is fed up with us and want nothing to do with us.

Obama is actually a half-white moderate. And hold the views of the majority of Americans who value their freedoms. Where did anyone get the idea he was a radical of ANY sort. Must be listening to the war profiteering mainstream media.

If you count the state caucuses Obama won by many millions. Republicans have an excuse to vote for more Bush (McSame) but any Democrat who would vote for that crazy war-monger is an absolute moron and is not really a Democrat.

No, 18th century is correct for the Constitution. Which manifesto are you talking about?

Many of the early contests where younger independent voters went the way of Obama will not be repeated. And, how come the media doesn''t keep harping and emphasizing the percentages of the non-college educated or minimally educated black voters who automatically flocked to Obama voting for him? By omitting this group and only emphasizing Obama not being able to get the so-called uneducated white vote, some might wrongly conclude that all of Obama''s voters were educated or had college degrees.

I actually think Obama''s ideas are those of the 18th century progressives and liberals who wrote the Constitution. Remember that piece of paper that Bushoccio, McBush and their depraved GOP enablers forgot about?
