CBS' Kathy Frankovic: Obama's Claim Of A November Edge Is Based On Shaky Numbers

[nearl4511]

Not one good reason to vote for Hill or McCain on this entire thread, just reasons to fear the black man.

What is this: "Birth of a Nation"? Is the KKK off to the rescue as in the movie?

Such silly arguments.

[nearl4511]

Ok now Obama is the AntiChrist.

Really pulling at straws aren''t we.

Again. YAAAAWN.

I want to know have any of the major candidates said a word about the oil companies? I have read and listened until I feel like my ears are going to fall off and my eyes are weary and I haven''t found or heard a thing about the oil companies.
Candidates, until the President and Congress does something about the ridiculous prices of fuel, the recession will get a lot worse. When I purchased my property in 1998, fuel was $ .89 a gallon, it is now $2.99. That is over a 300% increase, have your salaries gone up 300%?

This fearmongering and race/religion baiting is getting quite old and boring.

YAAAAAAWWWWN!

Can''t figure out what you want us all to be afraid of (1) the prospect of change, (2) Mulsims, (3) atheism (not compatible with Islam I might point out), (4) lack of experience or the unstated underlying fear (5) a partially black President!

Well....I''m not scared. The reason Obama is doing so well isn''t hoodwinking or subterfuge. It is because people are SOOOOOO tired of politics as usual. Few want 4-8 more years of a Clinton (any Clinton) or any Bush. If McCain wins, well at least is some kind of change, but I''m still working for the clean break.

Don''t tell me there are actually voters that are reading up on good ole boy Obama. Isn''t amazing how he is everything to everybody. This guy is selling all of us a bill of goods and unfortunately the black population is falling for it.
I realize Hillary Clinton is NOT LILY WHITE but at least she calls a spade a spade. Again I repeat, wake up American voters, this guy is a charlatan. He kind of reminds me of a movie, it was about the anti-Christ and everyone fell for his oratory skills. I am over 55 and I want change probably more than the young voters do because I remember America when I was young. And this is not it. Voters of this country, no matter what your religion, race,creed or culture may be, Obama is not a knight in shining armor and his wife is definitely lacking in the graciousness department. Can''t you just see her showing her distain for a foreign VIP?

We can not keep spending money we don''t have.

Obama criticized McCain''s stance on the war and said, "We can''t keep on spending money that we don''t have on a war..."

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/02/13/politics/main3827422.shtml

(AP) Democrat Barack Obama said Wednesday that as president he would spend $210 billion to create jobs in construction and environmental industries, as he tried to win over economically struggling voters.

"This agenda is paid for," Obama said as the Republican National Committee promoted an "Obama Spend-O-Meter" online to track his proposals and portray him as a tax-and-spend liberal. Obama explained that the money for his spending proposals will come from ending the Iraq war...

So besides being a Muslim who converted to Christianity right before he entered the dirty world of Chicago politics, his father was really an atheist? It gets better! (for the Republicans) and his mommy was an atheist too??? No wonder he says nothing about his white mother.

And electing Obama or Clinton won''t change a thing.

armandbeni, our society is in BIG trouble, that''s the point. We are going to fall hard and fast. Nothing that I see we can do about it. Sorry for the downer.

[armandbeni]

I still can''t believe that our political system is incapable of finding anyone better than the current three front runners. If this is the best and brightest that America has to offer than our society is in trouble. We need to scrap the current two party system and open the field up to more than the political hacks that are currently running
