Barack my Dream,

Oh Lord as i use to praise you everyday and everytime,

Help Americans to vote Barack Obama the world Citizen

for a better futur of our Great Nation and for a better World

Viva U.S.A

God I hate hippies

If after Saddleback's Saturday "conversations don't show every intelligent woman and man what McCain will do to the Justice System and the White House then I give up on having faith in humanity. McBush will drive for war, let the oil barons have their way and we'll have a continued infrastructure falling apart, more Katrina's, more unwanted pregnancies, women lose the right to choose and poverty will grow.

Obama is our hope because he's a HUMAN unlike these other Washington panderers. Obama will set a new tone and he's urged all of us to keep him on track. Which we will do but he's got the courage to do a lot of it with the help of the more decent Washington folks of all parties, races, ages, sexes and religions.

OBAMA 08!

maybe he'll announce how he will take our troops out of Iraq send some to Afghanistan that will leave us a bunch to go to Georgia to fight the Russians along with the billion dollars he's throwing in to start. funny how it's OK to spend money to help rebuild another country and free up troops from Iraq to put us in a position to have to send them to Georgia to be engaged in a fight with equal if not superior forces guarantying casualties if it's obama doing it

I am voting for the only true American Ralph Nader!
Why don't the GOP and Democratic open the debate up to Nader?
Are you people scared of the truth?
Nader/Gonzalez 08 and beyond to a greater America.

Nader 08

I hope it is Biden……. OBAMA/BIDEN ticket is the winner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I like Kaine and Bayh too

I am voting for the only true American Ralph Nader!

I hope Obama stop in Wisconsin! That would be cool. Anyways, I hope Obama picks Biden, Richardson, or Feingold as his VP.

To Clinton Supporters:

Seriously, If Obama doesnt want to have Hillary as he VP, get over it please, and if your not voting for Obama because Hillary is not the VP, seriously think about what your doing, Do you really want another four years of a Republican controlled Presidency?

I dont.

Obama '08

BARACK ON, BABY!

Here we go!!!
Obama-Sebelius '08!
Obama-Powell '08!
Obama-Warner '08!
Anyone but HRC and he will win BIG in November!

Ok folks, the Obama train is getting ready to leave the station.
Everybody get on board and help to shape our Destiny.

If you want to vote McCain, go for it you Puma's aren't really Democrats anyway. Why hide behind Democrats, why not register as Republician.

I guess CNN is no different than MSNBC…all they do is talk about Obama.

If you think that Barack Obama is you light and savior you are very wrong. A man with 4 years of political experience. Would you hire a clerk to run the biggest company in the world? I don't think so….wake up and see the green behind Obama's ears.
ps. Why is a half white man running as a black candidate???

Why would Obama want a bagge like Hillary, who can't even responsibly run her campaign and who stands for status quo?

A VP is second in command. There is no way that I will ever vote for Obama/Hillary if he is dumb enough to pick her.

Anyway, why do we need to revive the Clinton dynasty?
No more Clinton or Bush!

All you dems – your exhuberant feelings – know you can bottle it and sell it. Just empty your half full bottle and sell it, you will have the same product that Obama is selling – air!!

I just left Denver, thank God… no wait, thank Obama. HeHe

Joshua first learn how to spell independent. Then think about how stupid you sound voting against your interest for the sake of what "the so called dream ticket". It's not hard to see who has the American People's interest at heart and who has the Corporate Sell all of what we are interest at heart.

Barck Obama for the 21st Century!!!!

Obama keeps giving these speeches because he needs to be adored. What do you bet that they will contain the same old boring platitudes and that the members of his cult won' t even notice what he's saying?

Thank God we have a American running for President, John McCain.
Thank God McCain will not raise our taxes.
Thank God McCain will keep us safe, just like President Bush did.
Thank God McCain is not a Muslin.
Thank God McCain has Americans as his interest.
Thank God McCain is not a ROCK STAR.
Thank God the Democrats will lose in 08.

John McCain 08

I’m extremely disappointed in the response that a hand full of Clinton supporters have. All the major principles of being a member of the Democratic Party, shoved aside, because your candidate of choice is not going to lead the party in the Presidential election this year. Sad…. I would never dishonor my right to vote and our ability to reverse the a faulty government we’ve had the past few years. If you do not vote for the Democrats this year, you’re a traitor to the party. If you vote Republican, you’re a traitor to America!

Shame on you all.

No disrespect to the Hillary supporters but get over it!!! Voting is an option there is no law that says you have to vote so STAY HOME!!

Barack doesn't need Hillary to win but she needs him to help pay off her debt. I'm sure you contributed your $1.50 Joshua, Yolanda and Ann. If not SHAME ON YOU!!!!

All you PUMA's are idiots!

You would rather vote for someone against everything Hillary was for than vote vote a Black man is stood for almost everything that HIllary was for.

If you are a true Democrat then your choice is simple Barack Obama

If you choose McCain for no better reason than Hillary's loss then you are not only acting like a selfish little child, you are obviously ignorant too since McCain is the Anti-HIllary. Say bye bye to everything HIllary stood for if he wins and for what? Your sore loser baby pride?

Grow up and look at what is important – THE ISSUES not YOU. Obama is the next best thing to your Hillary. He won! Personally I liked him better in the first place. Hillary is NOT Bill.

Your precious HIllary lost fair & square by the rules she agreed on then tried to change in the middle of the game. Deal with it and move on for the love of this country….GROW UP!

Yawn. Who cares? Obama's a just another liberal loser.

All you sour pusses stop raining on the parade….if you are not going to be a positive influence and enjoy the moment go blog on McCain's articles. Life is too short (per Hillary Clinton) to not get on with this nomination and election. There are LOTS OF AMERICANS who desperately need you to VOTE for the USA …not your selfish feelings ….We are all working together to make YOUR lives better…in spite of yourselves.

Joshua stop being a bully like the Clintons!!!! She will not be on this ticket….Get over it, If not vote for McCain!!!! And that goes for all of you haters and why not pay off her VENDORS IF THERE IS SO MUCH LOVE!!!

OBAMA 08/12!!!

sen. obama deserves become the president, for many reasons, i hope he become, not that old guy, who is jellos cause sen. obama ideas of prosperity.

dont vote for the old guy,

Go OBAMA 08

"Be the first to know." Hmmmmm ……. Ironic Hillary and Barack have coined the same quote in separate venues.

It's going to take the drive and experience of both to pull this great nation out of the sludgepot and redeem the values we once had within the global community.

Obama/Clinton '08 – '12

sen. obama deserves become the president, for many reasons, i hope he become, not that old guy, who is jellos cause sen. obama ideas of prosperity.

dont vote for the old guy, republicans sucks.

Go OBAMA 08

He'll probably have more people there than McCain at his "BIG" Ohio event.

And to the people who have already posted that Hillary is his only choice for VP… answer me one question….

Tell me how Hillary would be more qualified for the position than someone like Biden, or Hagel. This isn't a popularity contest.. this is about who's more qualified to do the job.. so I don't want answers like 18 million votes, or we need a woman.. or any stupid answers that mean nothing when it comes to actually doing the job. Tell me… What qualifies Hillary above these guys who have served much longer, have had MUCH more experience, and so far have NOT tried to stab Obama in the back countless times while begging him to pay off her debt?

I know experience isn't everything.. and Obviously these guys have more experience than Obama.. but Obama is the nominee already and there's nothing you can do about it… so I don't want to hear anything about Hillary having more experience than Obama at this point.

To all PUMAs – live and learn … go ahead and give this world an atomic war – that is what you will get with ole' Mac daddy…. I really do think PUMA was created by Neocons because they know that they are loosing. I have always been a Clinton supporter But come on folks, Hil friggin has lost! go ahead, change the rules to fit your opinions, that is how the Pumas roll. Remember when we were all kids, and some jerk would cut in line… well I still see people do that today except they are adults and they cheat, just like the CLINTONS

Here we go baby!!!!! hehe

Ann,

Get off the Hilary for VP thing. Let this candidate, this nominee pick who he wants. If Hilary supporters don't want to support him, well, maybe America can take 4 more years of republican lead, inept policies and decisions. Its your call but you do realize you are making an emotional decision not a rational one. Unity comes from leadership and if Senator Clinton wants a unified party, the democrats will get a unified party. Catch my drift?

Rumor has it John McCain will even show up. Just to see what it's like when a Presidential candidate is popular.

It's time to reclaim our great nation from the clutches of the stupid and weak. We deserve greatness, not sameness. Go Obama!!!!!

It does not matter.

Obama has nothing, he just made a good speech and bam, people think he is ready for President.

I do not think so.

Big Mac is the Man.

Hero versus community organizer. By the way Obama said he used coccaine, I just wonder when.

500,000 WILL BE IN SPRINGFIELD. THE New American Unions, Lincoln ushers in OBAMA-CLARK for a New American Union and Covenant with the Poor and Least Among us!

Home sweet home!! That where everythinks has begin.
We love u Barack!!!!!!!

Awesome, can't wait!! Hopefully, it will be Biden, as they would be an amazing team!!

Obama/Biden '08

Obama is upset because he thinks McCain in questioning his patriotism. Gee, tells us about the patriotism of your wife, Michele, please. Oh please, explain this little inconsistency as well as you explain all the others, Barack old boy!! More double talk, please!!! I still don't understand your platform or even if you have one.

It drives me crazy when Obama and his team refer to Illinois as his
"home state!" HAWAII is Mr. Obama's "HOME STATE" – NOT ILLINOIS!He represents Illinois in the U.S. SENATE but he was BORN in
HAWAII! I am a fourth generation Illinoian and I can claim Illinois as my home state – NOT OBAMA!!

I wish I could be there.

History in the making.

Only in the U. S. of A.

Obama/Biden 08/12.

Go Obama 2008. No matter what they do 'THEIR PURPOSE DRIVEN LIES' will fail.

This guy Obama is the biggest hoodwinker of our time. he can go to hell, wether or not he selects Hilary as his running mate. He cannot and must not win under any circumstances. I am a Democrat but I will be voting Republican. Watch out this guy is inexperienced and will lead the US to disaster.

PUMAs need to move on. It's sad that their entire happiness is hell bent on Hillary Clinton. Wow. You tell me what's wrong with that picture!

Hopefully he'll resign and let Hillary accept what she won in the primaries, ie. the nomination!

Whoop-dee-doo and a WOWOWOW!!!!

Who CARES what the stuttering fool is up to now???????????? I wish he'd go back to Europe or Hawaii and stay there forever!

Oh, and CNN – enough with the typos – what you MEANT was where he launched his "ego trip"

I will definitely be there! I missed his speech in Springfield when he announced his candidacy, because temps were below zero. This time my whole family will be there!

GO OBAMA!!!!

I live in Springfield! yay!

VOTE FOR MC CAIN SIMPLY BECAUSE HE IS BETTER QUALIFIED i too supported HILLARY i voted democractic the last two times and loss the LAST TWO TIMES THIS TIME it's john mc cain/////chris/ romney/ pawlenty// huckabee…….be creative vote what is best for AMERICA….. not the glimmer of CHANGE with no direction

Joshua…..I wonder if you look as stupid as you sound?

Childish…………..

I wonder if there will be any Bitter Americans, or better yet……………….any typical white people at this wing- ding NoBama is having.

Will Wright be hiding in the basement?

Is Obama going to have a free concert before he speaks? I would be willing to travel across the state line if I knew who Obama was getting for the opening. Nothing like a free concert to get the crowds.

All his events are staged.

I wish all these PUMA trolls would shut up.

Even if Hillary was the VP, or even the candidate, you still wouldn't vote for the Democratic ticket because you're a bunch of Rush Limbaugh operation chaos morons in disguise who are trying to create trouble in the Democratic party, yet failing miserably.

OBAMA / GORE 08

McCain wishes he could get this kind of excitement about is VP choice. He wishes he were famous and not infamous.After all hasn't he run for President more than anyone else in American History.

MCCAIN 08 HILLARY 12

I cant wait that long!!! He need to announce it today! WE LOVE BARACK AND HILLARY!!!!

OBAMA/CLINTON 2008

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

"Yes, give rousing speeches — that's all you are competent for."

Seriously, outside of rousing speeches and selecting a competent cabinet, that's all a president has to be. Nobody expects a president to do everything, just like nobody expects a CEO to be his own secretary. The job of the president is to be the figurehead leading the nation. That's why looks are considered so important in the campaigns.

OBAMA / EDWARDS 08 ??
Edwards has his owns personal issues to deal with, his name has been scratched off for good !

Obama isn't going to be bullied into picking Hillary as his VP. Hillary reminds me more of a mother-in-law than anything. She would just be such an overbearing VP with many hidden agendas, and smiling all the way.

PUMA<PUMA<PUMA. If no HRC —NO OBAMA.

I CAN'T HELP BUT GO BACK AND REMEMBER THE MC'DOUGALS AND HOW THE CLINTONS CHEATED THEM. WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND. I HAVE NO SYMPATHY FOR HILLARY.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Senator Obama -

Please keep the VP slot open on the formal agenda at the Convention.

Woutd the like to see you announce the VP selection via text and e-mail on the day before he/she is to address the convention. May I suggest late Tuesday evening after the end of the convention's business that day?

This will make it far more difficult for the McCain camp to leverage your pick …..

(a.) in making their selection or
(b) in trying to steal the Democrats "Thunder" after the convention.

The best event for Obama if He will vote for McCain. No HRC -NO OBAMA.

After his pathetic performance at the Forum I am surprised that he can hold his big head up. He really ought to be ashamed of himself and all you obama robots drinking that koolade ought to sober up.
The DNC nominee is a joke and will not win the white house, get used to it.
Why would USA citizens want an upatriotic clown and his unpatriotic wife in the white house? They are both a joke and will have to go crawling back to Chicago.
MCCAIN 08

I'm looking forward to watching this one. And as for all you PUMA fools – get over it! Hillary is out of the picture, Obama does not need her and Bill as a VP and neither does the rest of the country.

Operation chaos is working swimingly. Thank you MaJaRushie!

PUMA

We get it…you're not voting for Obama.

The rest of us are, we want the US to start back on the road to recovery now, not in 2012.

O/08

Joshua, calm down. I don't think it will be Hillary. If you can get over it by voting for Mcfuddy, I say go for it!!!!

If Obama chooses anyone other than Hillary Clinton, he will lose in November against McCain. Biden will not be any help to change my vote.

If no Hillary, NO vote and will vote for McCain.

Obama thinks he is the second coming or something like it. What a joke he is making of the Democrat Party.

Hillary Clinton needs to be the nominee and our next President. Anything less will cause our country to go further down hill!

It's been a long hard road getting this far, and with the full team in place, Obama will start the sprint for the finish line this Saturday. It's an exciting time to be an American!

ObamaRocks says "old man Mccain".

How would you feel if people referred to "black man Obama"?

Maybe some Obama fans can tell us which "ism's" are OK in the New Order. So far we have age and sex discrimination is OK.

Joshua, if you're an INDEPENDANT, it's a good sign that you were also home schooled.

However, lots of Independents will vote Obama!

America Is Ready
Obama 08

YOLANDA August 19th, 2008 3:02 pm ET

PUMA
IF NO HILLARY THEN NO VOTE FOR OBAMA.

Yolanda:

You don't understand. Obama can't pick Hillary. Her negatives with the Independents are huge. With conservatives her negatives are even worse and would bring out every single conservative to vote in the Fall against her. Obama would immediately fall behind Mccain in the National Polls if he were to pick Hillary. The close races in Ohio and other States would be lost because those independents and the growing number of outraged republicans would be so great Obama would immediately fall behind in these key States.

On the other hand Obama can afford to lose a few die-hard blind followers of Hillary as you and still win the election. So why would anyone in their right mind pick Hillary.

Kevin: Are you from Chicago or the State of IL? I bet your not. If so you and I can have a nice debate.

Change can be good, Change can be bad. Unknown commodities like yourself bring to mind visions of a Democratic version of either GW(OJT but count on Dad's old cronies) Bush, Jimmy (Iranian Hostage) Carter or god bless him, Michael Dukakis driving around the grounds in a Tank.

Respect + Experience = Russians pull back (visions of the only reason the Iranians gave up the Hostages is when they heard Ronnie Ray-Gun had been elected) from Georgia, allowing the Isaraeli's,again, as they did in 1986, to blow p the Iranian Nuclear Reactors, being partners with Europe……ending another mistake of a war and getting Washington D.C. spending under control, preventing Boeing from hijacking another procurement -

We get all that in Johnnie Mac!

Wouldn't it be a hally lou jah salute if he ended it there. I think this country is going to find that if obama is the dems choice they once again kick them selves in the butt and spew crap all over the place. The DNC and the DNC alone will be the reason McCain wins the election.

See how obama is fading already and he hasn't even started down the home stretch.

something huge is about to happen…..yes, folks….an intelligent, thoughtful, sensible, well liked man will be the next president of this great country….and people all over the world will think sanity has prevailed in America….FINALLY! Let's erase the last eight nightmare years and become a decent and well-admired country once again.

Kevin- If by dirty tricks, you mean following the rules exactly as they are written…
All of Obama's oponents incorrectly filled out the nomination petitions, and he didn't. Just so you know, this is the dirty trick you are refering to.

All I wanna know is: How do I get invited?

Rudy NYC-Sure more people live in NYC if you call stacking themselves like sardines living. You New Yorkers are so full of yourselves. Get off your island see what the real world is like.

Barack is going to lose his voice of change and the Presidential bid in November, because Biden, like many other Washington politicians, is paid and bought by foreign lobbyists that will dictate White House policies if Biden is in the White House. Biden is not much different from McCain, a hot headed and radical man! Many will stay at home in Illinois, Michigan and Iowa if you choose this man as you running mate!

Whats the cheer leader going to do now. Tell us more about his empty changes polished speeches. You 're so done Obama saty in Chicago

Obama /Biden is great ticket. I know he is going to win. He will do on Saturday!

Alice Brinkley August 19th, 2008 3:02 pm ET
Yes, give rousing speeches — that's all you are competent for.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
..and all Hillary is competent for is voting for unnecessary wars alongside Bush/Cheney.

Joshua. Yolanda………………………………Go stand in the corner.

Joshua and Yolanda need to grow up. I can't believe grown people are acting like such sore losers. Wow. Then again, maybe you're closet neoconservatives who purposely troll these boards to create a rift in the Democratic party (or at least the appearance of one). Nice try.

Remember people there is a such thing as a cause greater than yourself(your childrens future) lets leave this earth and our beautiful morals,values in good shape for our children GOD BLESS US ALL AMEN: Obama "08″

Barack, we your base love you and will continue to keep you lifted up in our prayers! Keep your head up, focus and stay strong. Don't get distracted by all of the the hate and even jealousy that has and certainly will come along in your journey. Remember – in humility there is strength!!

No Hillary!

Plus Ann and Yolanda, you should be focusing on fundraising for and donating to Hillary! Hillary's campaign still has a lot of debt in which you, her die-hard supporters, have not paid for!

That's where he'll announce Biden

No Hillary, No Peace

Just as Abraham Lincoln knew it was time for a change in the direction of this country. So does Barack Obama. And just like everyone said Lincoln was too inexperienced. Obama will show the world that once again vision and judgment will lead this country into the future. God bless and good luck Senator.

I will be out of town on that day! I will miss it! DANG!

It's my understanding Barack will attempt to raise from the grave Abraham Lincoln himself. What a moment this will be. Hold on…President Lincoln is a Republican!!!! Gosh darn, back to the grave Abe. False alarm, false Prophet.

Obama '08. To all you Hillary supporters: get over it. She brings nothing to the ticket but Bill and which one of you would want to have two vice presidents undermining you for the next four years. Biden is the best choice – smart, seasoned, foreign policy expert, takes no bull, and will help get things done. Hillary has done nothing but whine and according to the Atlantic article she couldn't even run her campaign or finances effectively – who owes money and who has plenty to spare – so why would anyone want her as part of the administration. She made poor choices and she has to live by her choices just like the rest of the world. GO OBAMA!!!!!!!!

Somebody please answer why they think Clinton would win. All I hear is that she would definately win and Obama has no chance. It is baffling that people are that delusional. Hillarry lost the primary, is the most polarizing figure in politics, has promoted disunity (in both parties and bipartisan efforts),and Republicans hate her so much they would actually unify to whoop her butt by a landslide.

PUMA's you say you can and will vote for McCain… if Hillary is not the VP. Do you understand what you are saying??? Also, it makes one pause to think if you can vote McCain as an alternative to Hillary then is Hillary and alternative to McCain…. ????

"I wonder if any of his political rivals from Chicago have been invited who he shafted 8 years ago with his dirty tricks stunt to get into power."

I wonder if McCain will finally acknowledge his first family and have his older children on stage with him at his convention or will he just completely ignore them like his daughter Megan McCain has done.

Good Job Sen OBAMA, start at home. GO OBAMA

only Senator Clinton is capable of establishing and leading an international coalition towards the ultimate goal of defeating terrorism

YES WE CAN AND WILL!

Obamanation '08

do not vote for your ego or your pride (mccain/obama)……..vote your conscience, the best interests of our children and our troops: vote for Senator Clinton

Give a clue to whom it could be Obama.

Those of us who can't be there in person will be there in spirit. Soon-to-be-President Obama – I know I speak for millions when I say it is an honor and a privilege to be a small part of your campaign. Choose wisely – we are behind you 100%. YES WE CAN AND YES WE WILL

the difference between Michael Phelps and obama? obama can talk the talk, but Phelps actually walked the walk….

A good start to 8 years of change/hope and well being for more americans and for the world. Go OBAMA. Pumas vote whom ever you want because by nov. we will not need you,not that you were behind any Democrat to start with even HRC.

Yolanda

Go home. Don't vote for Barack, it's ok. You'll still reap the benefits as will your daughters and granddaughters.

When the heart is right…….
The body and soul will follow.
Coretta Scott King

if Hillary is not the VP, obama is guaranteed to lose in November…

Funny how Hilliary has all of these 18 million suppoters but she is still in debt. She should ask the PUMAS to donate 2 bucks each. If this is done she would get ahead start on 2012.

The sad thing is all of you so called PUMAS would suddenly dissapear.

Who cares…………………..

HILLARY CLINTON FOR NOVEMBER 4TH WRITE IN!

Senator Clinton is the only candidate capable of being the best President for our children, our troops and America

You Dems sound like a bunch of wide eyed school girls before the prom. Keep riding that unicorn. One day and it may be soon your going to have to wake up from the fantasy!!

McCain 08

Let the CHANGE BEGIN! Americans are Sooooooo ready for this. Lets move beyond this disaster and head into the future!

Remember the USA credit card has 10 trillion dollars in debt, Divine Grace of the Regan and Bush Administration. (Regan 3.5 trillion, Bush 6.5 trillion)

Now will be time to balance the budget and start paying the debt, just as President Clinton did.
President Obama will have a huge problem to solve.

Ann August 19th, 2008 3:03 pm ET

"Don't be an idiot, Obama? The only sensible choice is Hillary Clinton as your VP. If you want to unify the party, it is the only choice".

I've goodnews for you Ann. We've moved ahead on unifying the party. We're now working on unifying the country. but you can help by sending Hillary you paycheck for the rest of the year.

Puma ; it is apparent that the Obama people think you are out there by yourself. I would like to inform you that a lot of indepedents feel the same way you do and will be voting for John McCain. I am not crazy about him but he beats the h@ll out of Obama.

Oh come on people! Get over the fact that Hillary lost. She did, its over! And if your going to vote McShame in spite of her loss, then good luck looking into the eyes of your children and grandchildren. Can you do that to them? Of course not, plus we know your just McCain supporters being paid per blog submission. Democrats ARE smarter than that, and we know better.

Obama 08/12

Obama Richardson 2008!!!!!!!

…Oh I really Thank and appreciate the educated, intelligent and truly patriotic americans supporting Barack. I only hope there are enough of us to get him elected. I really have doubts if we still require a High School education here in America. Most people that extend their education, realize Barack Obama is a "thinker" and therefore most of his supporters can relate. Even if you haven't received a formal education and support Barack, you deserve to be commended for realizing his qualities and simply looking past the foolishness.

Now…. McCain supporters, PUMA's with all their hate….Not so much!

OBAMA/ANYDBODY BUT CLINTON………………08/2012…..

As long as his choice is NOT Hillary I will be happy. I will be forced to stay home on election day if there is a Clinton on the ticket.

All of you who want to justfy what Hillary said during the primaries and what she continues to do leading up to the convention keep it up. Those of you who want to take your country back continue to do your noble deeds. nuff said. We'll talk in November.

He studied at the feet of the masters…..and came back and bit them where it hurts!

You mean the Bush family didn't use any tricks?!?!?! And McBush is starting to copy them now!

Obama
Biden
2008!

Obama and Biden would make a great team, coul easily crush a McCain/Romney ticket. It would make the media shut up about Obama's lack of experience of foriegn policy

Why is it that the tickers about McCain hardly have any posts? Because all of his supporters are on the Obama tickers. Go and support your candidate and stop bashing ours. If Obama is so insignificant to you, why are you on his tickers?

It is neither here or there to me .I would not vote for that snake oil salesman no matter who he picks. A non-news event for me.

Alice Brinkley, please get a life!

Seven decades-4 decades=disaster. I prefer less. These are modern times, not the middle ages.

Obama is the real deal. What a breath of fresh air!

This is the greatest thing since Oreo cookies and cold milk.
Sen Obama has taken the high road and not given into the negativity that the Republican canidate has stooped to. It is hard not to speculate who Barak's VP choice will be but keeping itunder raps until a few days before the convention is a great move.
GOD BLESS YOU SEN OBAMA AND GOD BLESS THE USA

Lifelong Democrat – now Independent.

Will NOT vote for a candidate with little experience at anything other than IL state politics for President of the USA.

Do not want to vote for McCain and probably won't.

Guess I will stay home in November…

Lisa August 19th, 2008 2:55 pm ET
Barack,I know whoever you selected will be an excellent choice and I'm so excited about the ticket already.
Go Barack, Go America!We are taking our country back!!!!
**I know there is a GOD ……LISA is that You **You feel ok ???

Whoever Obama picks as VP will be good enough for me. People don't vote for VP anyway. they vote for the POTUS. I'm waitin' for my email!

To HRC Supporters,

A vote for McCain by you is ending her political life. How can she gain a leadership position in the Senate? Will she be re-elected. There is no 2012 for her if you vote against Obama.

Lets agree that she ran a bad campaign.

THANK YOU OBAMA FOR STEPPING UP TO THE PLATE AND DO WHAT YOU DO BEST….ENERGIZE THIS COUNTRY. McCAIN HAS NOMINATED THE NEWS MEDIA FOR THE LAST TIME WITH LIES AND SLANDER AGAINST OUR MAN THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!!!!!
WE LOVE YOU OBAMA

Dems celebrate stop hateing PLEASE!!!!!!!!!

Seven decades + 4 decades= disaster. I prefer less. This is the modern age, not the Milldle ages

It's gonna be funny when in 5 months barack is sworn in as president, and the republican party is in disbelief because there attempts to steal the election didn't work, and the rage hillary will have because with all of her sabotage attempts she still couldn't keep barack from winning. I'm gonna cherrish that date along with the rest of the educated americans and the international world, because we finally did something that should have been done long ago, and that's taken power for the ignorant, stupid rural, appalacian lowlifes of the country

Pick Hillary, then I will vote for u. Don't pick Hillary and I will vote for McCain as many others will come November.

Wasn't Hillary born and raised in Illinois? Just food for thought.

The nation is behind you all the way, Obama!

Yeah – I guess this means everyone will be rubbing elbows with Obama' s pal – Tony Resko?? Or is he in jail??? Obama probably threw him in front of the bus!!

FIRED UP…READY TO GO!!!!!!!!!

GO OBAMA GO!!!!!!

I hope Sen Obama hurry and announce his VP, so all this endlesssssssly speculation will cease.

I really don't know how Barack does it. Always remaining positive, humble and gracious with groups attacking him like: The current WH, McCan't camp, Hillary camp, Pumas, Notfallinginline, many MSM's, and every pointy head white sheet trailer resident in america. They threaten is life, question his patriotism, call him the anti-christ and he just continues a long. I fully support him but really do feel sorry for him. He should be respected for what he's trying to do. He's treated any way but

I am curious if the "moderator" will approve my last message…since most of the posts here are about OBAMA….HA! NOT BLOODY LIKELY

Yolanda, yet over hillary– She has moved on.

I really resent that Obama puts on this 'preacher attitude' thing and throws out ambiguous spin and goads on the people to back him up with religious ferver. The empty suit people speak of is actually a manipulator and clever talker. His biggest downfall is that he is a Ted Kennedy in young skin.

Is this going tobe the final phase of the "magical mystery tour", or is this the kick off for a forth book tour. I still don't know why Barack feels he is entitled tobe the President?

Our Girl Hillary could be the beneficiary of a win win situation, either she gets the VP position in 08. Obama looses a close race.

2012 HRC

McCain won't be ready for the 3 am call. It''s gonna be on the internet. May not be able to wake Cindy from taking too many pills the night before

I spent my honeymoon in Springfield about 50 years ago!!! Such a very special place. God Bless Obama and his running mate!!!! I'm a former republican for Obama. He is the only HOPE my grandchildren have of getting the American Dream I had! Hope it is on TV all day Saturday!!!! GO Obama!!

I am a lifelong democrat and I supported Hillary in the primary..But I will support and vote for Obama..For all you Hillary supporters who are biting off your nose to spite your face and are voting for McBush…
GROW UP!!! How can you call yourselves intelligent voters and are voting for McIdiot….This country won't survive another 4 years of the Bush/Cheney failed..agenda….Go Obama..Go USA..USA..

Why is everything Obama does "major"? Is he trying to make himself seem larger than he is or are you guys at CNN just trying to pump up his candidacy as much as you possibly can? Either way, it won't work. He will have a "major" defeat in November.

Obama/Biden '08

OMG !!!
Please say it isn't so ??
No obom
Hillary Hillary Hillary
I hear there is a plot to destroy him….

Yes! Can't wait! I will walk the mile to the old Capital from my house and get to see Obama! Yea! (sorry, I'm excited)

In a break from work this morning I checked Cnn.com for update
on storm in Florida. What do I get –some lead story on Obama
and his childhood. I have relatives in Florida and was concerned
for them in the middle of a tropical storm /hurricane and with no
phone or electric and what do I get –more Cnn chear leading for
Obama in the middle of a freaking Hurricane. This is sickening.
Are you all so sold out you can't even stop for a real story.

REALLY SICKENING.

Kevin = hater…

p.s. using the rules as laid out by others is never a dirty trick.

always be careful when a republican accuses you of something.

because as they accuse you, THEY are always the ones doing exactly what they accuse you of.

I feel as though America has been on crack cocaine for the last 8 years. But now she's out of rehab, and ready to come back for her finest hour.

We love America!!!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Everyday around the world innocent people are dying, women are being raped and children are orphaned as a result of political unrest, violent aggression and war.

While this all happens, what are Hillary Supporters doing? Jumping up and down in the Starbucks screaming "PUMA PUMA PUMA'!

Yolanda, comme tu es stupide.

When the Union needs help, you can always count on thin guys that hail from Illinois.
Not born in Kentucky but Hawaii will do.

Anyone switching from Hillary to McCain was never a true democrat to begin with. If you have things your way, Roe vs. Wade will be overturned and we'll see the largest power grab in history- even larger than what we've experienced under the current administration. By all means, vote your conscience- you'll only have yourself to blame if that conscience gets you much more than you bargained for.

It's going to be a great day come Saturday!
Eat your heart out McCain.
And you jokers who are going to vote for McCain because Clinton isn't on the ticket………you aren't really democrats anyway.

These people who say "If Obama doesn't pick Hillary, I'm voting for McCain" are insane. Hillary supporters like that: Obama is far, FAR CLOSER TO HILLARY'S IDEALS than McCain is. A vote for McCain would be like slapping Hillary in the face—THINK ABOUT IT!!! SHE wants Obama, NOT McCain!

To all Hillary Supporters: Please keep in mind..that McCain was VERY clear about his intentions to overturn Roe v Wade. It would be a serious mistake to vote for him if you REALLY believe in Hillary Clinton. In addition, if Barack Obama loses this election…THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL HILLARY WILL WIN IN 2012. She will be held SQUARELY responsible for his loss and your "18 million votes" will mean absolutely squat in getting her elected. Please, PLEASE keep that in mind

It boggles my mind how folks can think "No Hillary, No Obama". It just makes no sense. Why were you for Hillary in the first place? Which candidate remaining is closest to that view? How can it possibly be McCain?

BET ON BARACK!!!!

USA

i guess some people are very very sore losser,some thing are just mint to happen.

I'm so sick of Barack Obama I can't wait until he picks someone other than Hillary for the VP, that way I will finally have my reason not to vote for him in November.

Kevin,

Obama could never pull any tricks dirtier than the Clintons!!!

Wow, shocking….Kool-Aid drinkers worshipping the Messiah on the CNN blog comment sections. Maybe you should be researching your Chosen One to see how empty of a suit this guy is

I'm getting so excited for the announcement.

The convention is going to be great! I'm heading to Denver on Saturday to work the week as a volunteer at this historic event. I can't wait to take in the whole experience. I'll check out what's going on during the day and be ready for my 5-9 p.m. shift each evening. I haven't been this excited about a candidate since Kennedy when I was just a teenager.

An Obama Mama — 60 somethings love him, too!

Yolands hey vote for McHillary ,Alice Brinkley vote for the McBush ,Joshua vote for McHillary how can we miss all these loosers most likely some hiding under sheeps clothes .
You are so hoping for 4 more years with McBush .

I wonder if Mayor Quimby is going to make an appearance…

It is great for once to have a president of the people. Grandpa McCain has taken millions from oil companies and several lobbiysts no wonder he has fired so many till he is compleately out of people to run his campaign. I cant imagine having a war monger in white house after Bush for even a week. Go OBAMA it is urs to take.

You would think that Michelle would have explained to him that you don't use terms like "sweetie" and "fiesty" if you want women to vote for you…

SORRY PUMAS THE VP IS NOT GOING TO BE HILLARY SO GO AHEAD AND VOTE FOR MCFART…….FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE VOTING OUT OF SPITE REMEMBER WHAT COMES AROUND GOES AROUND…….OBAMA 08

Did you see how the U.S. female hurdler lost in her race and everyone thought she would be the winner. Obama can still lose. He has not crossed that last hurdle yet so don't be too sure that he is going to win. Hillary Clinton for president in November.

Obama is ready! He looks nice! He's got his own cool seal! He's got his own latin phrase! He's got HUNDREDS of advisors to tell him what to think and say! The germans love him! What more does he need? Shouldn't he really be the Secretary-General of the U.N.?

Don't worry – be happy!
Quit the VP speculation! The media hype is driving some of these posters crazy to the point where I fear for their cardio health.
I hope there will be as much hoopla when the Republican Convention kicks off. All I keep reading about is who is not coming.

PEOPLE,

STOP BUYING CORPORATE PRODUCTS

Joshua…you can take your vote and pile it with the rest of the PUMA idiots. We dont need you….we are doing it without you!

Obama/Powell 08

the best thing the PEOPLE of this country can do for themselves right now is

STOP CONSUMING COPORATE PRODUCTS ALTOGETHER

AMERICA, WHAT A COUNTRY !

I'M LOVING IT.

OBAMA 08

Rousing speeches? Help your boy McCain so I can wakeup!

THIS IS IT…VEEP DAY!!!!

This is America Puma, it's not too late to join the party. We know you hate Barack, but were extending an olive branch. If you don't take it, it's on you. Regardless, we're going to have a great convention.

Obama 08

Obama = Socialism

How is it that everything he does is "Major?"

I wonder if any of his political rivals from Chicago have been invited who he shafted 8 years ago with his dirty tricks stunt to get into power.

"Old State Capital." Sounds more like a McCain kinda place.

Zing!

One monkey never stopped the show, but maybe a lot of you monkeys might.

indonesia isn't a state.. i don't get it.

I am just soooo excited. Give me a break.

Obama is risky and a loser.

Go for McCain

DENVER OR BUST, BABY.

This is great move if true, Biden is strong, smart and ready to roar back at the GOP machine. Its the new Democratic party, clinton-less (she better keep quiet or she will have more debt that she can handle).

Obama…Keep riding this till the wheels come off.

Go Obama!

Party Unity, let's change this nation!

No more McLIES!

LOL, it doesn't take much to get Obama supporters excited. Heck we're already through the roof.

Barack the Vote!

YES WE CAN!

SOAR LIKE AN EAGLE SEN.OBAMA, SOAR LIKE AN EAGLE..

The best speech would be that he's dropping his bid for president.

I am soooooo excited,,,go obama whoever you pick is ok with me lol.
I cant wait to take our country back.

Some of the Clinton or McCain supporters are so rude. They are the reason their will never be any unity in the democratic party. And i've been asking this question now for the last 3 months of Clinton supporters and havent been answered once: If Clinton was such a great candidate, how did she run such a terrible campaign and get into 22.5 million dollars debt?

Go Dems!!!

This is what you need to do ignore the old man Mccain false attacks and talk about he issues orginary people care about. I have no dout in mind that our next president is Obama.

No Hillary! Vote your conscience! Who gives a rat's behindwho you vote for?

I have such a "crush" on the next POTUS and his wife

Rush Limbaugh kooks watch out. Obama Nation is taking over.

Hillary who?

DRUM ROLL PLEASE.

BARACK THE VOTE PEOPLE.

No Joshua, you'll vote McCain because you're scared of change, and a crybaby. We don't need you, we don't want you, as you were never going to vote for Obama anyways.

PUMA is a joke. On Saturday, they were trying to raise $4000 and someone posted on their blog that if everyone gave $5, they would make it. Everyone? That means there are 800 PUMAs. No wonder they can't pay down her debt.

Yolanda, it's not going to be Hillary. So I guess we know what you'll be doing come November. Trying your best to ruin this country by giving us four more years of a Republican administration. Shame on you!

No Hillary no vote!!!

PUMA!! We will give Hillary the RESPECT she deserves. I've given my max in retiring the debt. You Obama supporters need Hillary and Bill. You better realize that before your golden goose lays a big fat egg!

Gallup 45%, McCain 44%….dead heat!!! What's the reason? You need Hillary supporters. The sooner you admit it the better.

There won't be a slot for Hillary and there will be votes for Barack. I think PUMA people should meet at a bar and cry in their beers. They will not rain on this magnificent parade.

Obama 08

spend, spend, spend. please come to the obama extravaganza money is no object, they'll send more. oh by the way let me tell you about my fiscal restraint program we have to stop this spending going on in Washington yada yada yada

If Clinton isn't on the VP, I'm writing her in. I really believe the 2 of them could do so much for this country, but I don't feel comfortable with just one or the other. I think they will both keep one another accountable and besides, what a historical ticket that would be! I pray Obama picks her!

He needs all the extra hoola he can generate. I can't believe how weak

he came across on the debates. And this guy is a lawyer and taught ?

I hope DNC officials give him a crash course on being a more effective

debater. If the recent debate is any indication, he's going to lose the

elections when the country sees how sheepish, not in control, coward

like, and hard question avoidance tendencies he portrays.

Alice,
Don't you think conventions and elections are meant for rousing speeches?

Go Barack!

david unless you have been living under a rock for the last two weeks you will know that it will not be JOHN EDWARDS

Obama and Biden look real good together. They would make a great team.

THE WHOLE WORLD IS WATCHING AND WAITING FOR CHANGE WHICH WILL BRING BACK PEACE AND PROSPERITY. OBAMA IS WHAT THE WORLD IS WAITING FOR, DON'T BE AFRAID OF OBAMA, BE AFRAID OF THE DIRECTION OUR COUNTRY IS HEADED UNDER THE REPUBLICAN ADMINISTRATION.

Obama, what's your position on Emile Jones who wants to anoint his son as the inheritor of Illinois Senate seat.

Don't be an idiot, Obama? The only sensible choice is Hillary Clinton as your VP. If you want to unify the party, it is the only choice.

BARACK THE VOTE, BABY. HERE WE GO!

PUMA

IF NO HILLARY THEN NO VOTE FOR OBAMA

Yes, give rousing speeches — that's all you are competent for.

I'd like to teach the world to sing
In perfect harmony
I'd like to give the world a chance
And keep it company

Peace Out

O/08

I wish I lived closer because this announcement is going to dominate the media through the democratic convention.
I love how Obama can keep the attention of the media throughout this process, which keeps the attention away from McCain.
I wonder how many people will be there? Lots.

WAY TO GO OBAMA, WE ARE BEHIND YOU ALL THE WAY.

OBAMA………08

OBAMA / EDWARDS 08

LET THESE MEN RULE

He needs to do more of these and give rousing speeches.

Bayou Joe, you're a walking argument for birth control, did someone perform a partial lobotomy on you?

These last two weeks have been too much. First Phelps in Bejing, now Barack with his great news. I'm loving it. If I could bottle the feeling I have I'd sell it!!!

Whoohooooo, eight years of misery and one election season of shear heaven.

Obama 08

We're behind you Obama!

The calm before the storm.

Obama 08

I just got an email stating that I can volunteer in Denver. I'm so excited and can't wait to do my part in changing America.

OBAMA 08

IF CLINTON IS NOT VP OBAMA CAN GO TO HELL, ILL VOTE MCAIN CAUSE I AM INDEPENDANT

joe biden is a good choice by Obama ,but are they going to win/

America is getting brighter and brighter everyday. This is great news.

O/08

I wish I could be there

obama 08

Wouldn't it be ironic if more folks show up than they did in Berlin? Don't expect it to happen though. More people live in New York City, NYC, than the entire state of Illinois. And that does include Chicago.

Barack,

I know whoever you selected will be an excellent choice and I'm so excited about the ticket already.

Go Barack, Go America!
We are taking our country back!!!!

Whoohooooo, here we go. This is so exciting.
