There are so many things that I have been hearing about Obama and McCain that is hard to decide on whom to vote for in this upcoming election. As a person of faith in the Gospel, there are some moral concerns that I disagree with Obama. Then again, I'm not too impressed with McCain's overall tactics and possible deception to win voters (although he did attend the NAACP in Cincinnati which did raise one of my eyebrows). The point that I'm trying to make is CNN (in my opinion) has been doing a better job informing viewers about the two presidential candidates. Fox news lost me when I felt that they were attacking Obama about every little thing. I understand that the media has a role to report the 'news', but I had noticed the extended airtime that Fox news reported on Obama's character being reported for questioning. I started to think that maybe Fox new is not being 'fair' and balanced. I started to QUESTION if Fox news was subliminally being racist by covering up bias intentions of Obama's flaws (that are not even proven because of his Christian faith). There is a well-known pastor that I like to listen to that favors Fox news. This particular pastor admires the coverage that has been reported on Obama. Whether or not Fox news motives were unintentional, their method on reporting has not impressed me lately. I might watch one particular anchorperson from Fox news, but any other coverage I watch on CNN. CNN has more diversity as far as people reporting. It is not just a black person or a white person reporting on the weekdays, there are many other ethnic people that I see on CNN… And that is the reason why I have switched over to watching CNN more. In addition, CNN news has reported the news accurately to my knowledge. I'll continue to watch CNN as long as the coverage is accurate and it is not showing complete partiality.

Until early this year, I knew relatively little about Obama, other than that he gave a great speech at the 2004 Convention and opposed the foolish invasion of Iraq. Since then I've followed Obama's campaign closely. I've listened to his speeches, watched his debates, learned about his biography, heard his intelligent answers to difficult questions, and observed how he managed people and crises. I do not make hasty or uninformed decisions. I've grown to appreciate and support Obama and believe he has the potential to become one of our greatest presidents and likely Time magazine's "Person of the Year!"

It's called revving up your base of supporters. Had he said this while overseas, or to a general audience, then yes. This would be rather "bold" of him. But speaking to people who have money in their pockets that you're trying to get and telling them your odds are very good are really no different than a screenwriter asking a producer (probably not the right title but you should get the point) to invest in his/her movie. Or, even a major corporation on a financials conference call saying how well their product line is being received (and therefore people should invest more into the company). So, before people really get it twisted, he's revving his audience up to make sure they continue to support his candidacy. It's not arrogance, it's not being cocky, it's not being presumptuous.

McCain is such a lier, always telling lies on Obama. He says he is with the troops, and Obama is not, but is was McCain that voted and sent these youg soldiers to a war that should not have been. McCain was taunting Obama, that he have not experience in over seas. Obama goes over seas, and get a very good reception. McCain hated that, because he did not received such a reception. McCain acts like a 3 year old when they are not being paid a lot of attention, so he makes up stories to turn the public away from Obama, with his terrible lies. McCain travelled over seas too, so why his he not mentioning that? OBAMA, OBAMA, OBAMA. FOR THE WHITE HOUSE I hope Obam will win this election.

I would bet on his campaign against McCains in a minute. In fact smart money INTRADE quotes has him as the projected winner63.2 to 32.5. His brillant orgainization upset the Clinton machine and left it 24million in the red. McCain's campaign is no Hillary. It's not even close. McCain is losing the Electoral College Map 322-216. To put that in further perspective if Obama lost in KY,TN,WV,MS,AL,LA,and AR states with a conbined 54 Electoral votes he would still have more votes by winning California with it's 55. He is leading in Calfinoria by 18 points.If he also lost MT,ID,WY,ND,SD,NE,KS,UT,AZ and SC his Electoral total would not change. Obama leads in NY with 31 votes by 19 points and in IL with 21 votes by 20 points for a total of 52 Electoral votes. McCain has a lot of work to do. His feeble campaign has a lot of work to do.
