- I listen to an report were they went to Harlem interviewing Obama supporters but using Mccain policies.
They asked one lady what she like most about Obama that he was prolife or wants to keep the troops in Iraq, she responded both.
When asked about how she liked Obama VP pick Sarah Palin, she stated she will do a great job.
I listen to three people all clueless to Obama, but supporting him.
I sure Mccain side has some koolaid drinkers as well. - Reply to this comment

No, you have misunderstood what i was saying. I know several white people that are voting for Obama, what I am saying is that I have never, in my town, seen so many black people wearing the t-shirts, putting signs in their yards...they even had an Obama float in our high school homecoming parade...this has NEVER happened before. I love living in America were we can all vote for the candidate of our choice, however, in my town it is turning into a black/white vote. - Reply to this comment
- I know why I won''''t vote for him, but most don''''t care...just want a black man.

... and many just DON''T want a black man. How arrogant of you to assume that Obama supporters are voting exclusively based on race. I also note that, after several weeks of keeping an eye on these boards that many many McCain supporters trumpet their race neutrality (oh, it''s just his BELIEFS I can''t support), but over the course of time they invariably start spouting not-so-carefully code words in their posts that betray their racism. You may or may not be one of them, and I try not to prejudge, but the odds of racism tend to increase the more the source decries it. - Reply to this comment
- Your right, many voting based on race alone.

- I know people don''t like to hear this, but here in our area, it is a black and white vote. I have NEVER seen the black''s so excited about a candidate. What is a shame is the majority don''t know why they are really voting for him, just like the color of his skin. That is wrong! I vote values and can not vote for Obama, my beliefs will not allow me to vote for some one like him...I know why I won''t vote for him, but most don''t care...just want a black man.

- If there is so much dirt on Obama, why is it that it is so secret. Is it a vaste conspiracy on the part of the entire world? Even FOX news hasn''t come up with any real facts. You are all such loonies.

I cannot believe that America is about to elect this person. I believe with every ounce of my being that if even half of the dirt on Obama were to be reported this would be a landslide!!!

- I still say McCain will win in North Carolina...I was in NC a couple of weeks ago and saw McCain signs every where and only a few Obama signs. I still say that if Obama does become our next president we are all in a lot of trouble...he has a hidden agenda. I will be one of the ones that can honestly say he did not get there on my vote and will say I told you so!

Face it your guy McCain has lost, your old hero Bush couldn''''t get elected dog catcher in an assylum and the repub party has become the party for cave dwellers.
Meantime, why don''''t you switch to Fox news, you''''ll be a lot happier.

john43218 will not be happier at Fox because they only confirm all the conspiracy theories that he''s making up in his Mom''s basement. He need the affirmation he gets on this site that everyone REALLY IS out to get him. Send him some more tin foil for his head. - Reply to this comment
- There has to be a generational shift in NC, which I think is taking place as of right now. The old white establishment who supports Repubics are in real danger of losing their power.
As for Mrs. Dole, she is a carpet bagger. Isn''t she from KS? Who the hell elected her from NC? This tells me another thing: There may be too many dumb right wing wackos there! - Reply to this comment
- Here in NC, everyone in my circle are voting early. And democrat.

- you stupid T.U.R.D. polisher
Obama at the Helm mean more blacks on welfare or in goverment jobs. send all the jobs to china
let the blacks works for Ronald Mcdonald

** You are the stupid t.u.r.d.! Obama would not mean more blacks on welfare, it would mean more blacks working because most illegal immigrants would get kicked out so us white and black working americans can finally work jobs here again! Rather than the rich companies that Amnesty Mccain supports that want those cheaper laboring illegal immigrants! Wake up and realize that amnesty mccain would be even worse than bush! - Reply to this comment
"I don''t like Obama," she said. "When you look at him, when you see him speaking, some of the looks he gives are condescending. He doesn''t come off as somebody I would trust. He just doesn''t. Sometimes you can''t give a reason for that."
*** I hate people that think they can''t trust Obama, and yet the trust amnesty mccain! Amnesty Mccain has shown time and time again that the only time he goes maverick, is when over 80 percent of the country DOES NOT agree with him! Amnesty Mccain wants to give amnesty to over 20 million illegals, so if that woman in the article thinks her husband would have a hard time getting a job now, just wait until amnesty mccain lets over 20 million illegals to have amnesty!- Reply to this comment
