Obama/Biden, 08!

I'm in awe at the level of blatant stupidity and ignorance of Clinton supporters. She lost, FAIR AND SQUARE, but they think she should still be POTUS? She LOST! Get the frack over it! And to say you're gonna vote for McInsane, you were not only never a Democrat to begin with, you've been living in a box for so long that the box now has round edges and you're now living in a ball of confusion.

This should be interesting

Lets be honest here, Hillary did not and does not have 18 million voters, never did,period. If she did why wasnt her debt paid off by them? lousy dollar from each? Well because she doesnt have that many supporters.
2nd.... 25% of those that voted for her were repubs that crossed the line to try to help Obama loose, which of course, didnt work, because there were alot of dems, repugs and indipendants that believed in HIM, not her.
3rd.. If youre tired of the lies and spin from msm, watch c-span or pbs... If u repugs think ur stupid ads, ur nasty comments on our blog(obamas) is going to work, ur wrong You leave ur coments and go collect ur pay from Mccian. oh ya and then u let msm know they are there so they can report discontent between his supporters. AINT GONNA WORK, NOT NOW, NOT EVER. i CANT wait till next week, , u repugs arent going to be very happy when we get done with u
adios and good luck cause mccain, ur going to need it lolol

gooooooooo
obama/biden 08 and beyond.

"backed by a full gospel choir". Will the encore be:
"What a friend we have in Barack"?

The issue of who is stronger on National Security should be judged on whose policies will leave the rest of the world upset with us rather than who talks the toughest. We are attacked because of our policies, not because people just enjoy hating us.

The republicans didn't want McCain 8 years ago, 4 years ago, and We don't want him NOW!

Most of Hillary Clinton supporters are still voting for McCain because Clinton supporters think that John McCain will be better on national sercurity in these dangerous times and is a more moderate candidate closer to Hillary's policies. Hillary did a great speech last night but McCain will be better for the job and will win in Nov.

Can't wait for Thursday evening! Future POTUS Obama deserves all the fanfare possible on Thursday night, after having to forfeit the greater part of this convention to the Clintons and their pathetic supporters.

So is this a convention or a rock concert? Typical, no substance, only fluff. A mile high and an inch thick! And Wow, I just finished reading his one page resume'! Vote.Obama.I.Am.Not

When did the DNC turn into the Super Bowl? Too bad the ad's aren't as good.

How can you McCain supporters really bash Obama b/c he has backing from popular musicians???? John 'Do no wrong' McCain made his own appearence with Daddy Yankee!?!?!?!?! Are you serious?

Sweet! Wish i was there!

2012, you are so right and that is from a Black American Woman.

Obama 08

OBAMA is no where near as a big a celebrity as Ronald Regan was when he was elected in the 80s. Why was it ok for Regan to be a celebrity, but a bad thing for OBAMA to be popular and appeal to young voters??? Jeez, what a bunch of racist people on here. You don't like him because he's black. Just admit the truth! I'd have more respect for you- but you're just cowardly racist. Actually several people "just out of HARVARD" were HIRED to be CEOs! And He finished HARVARD 20 years ago. Just because McSAME was a POW does not make him qualified to be president. NO WAY! NOW HOW. NOOOOOOOOOO McSAME! OBAMA/BIDEN 2008

Like the starry eyed Obama supporter said "I don't care about the issues, Obama sends text messages and is technically savvy so he has my vote" The biggest political failure since McGovern is coming – print this one out and look at it on November 5th. If Obama had a brain he would have let Hillary have this next four years, she would have screwed things up so badly that he would be king in 2012 – instead he will take Howard Dean's spot in a year or two after he loses his Illinois seat – oh, there was tough election LOL

I guess Senator NObama thinks that if he surrounds himself with idiotic celebrities that he is going to impress voters. How wrong! Some of us are already tired of his celebrity mongering.

But, what else can you expect from an individual that doesn't have much to offer. His celebrity status may impress our youth. However, even if they vote at all, they are not going to influence this election that much. Goes to show how misguided the Senator can be.

Senator NObama and his misguided, bleeding-heart supporters are holding the Democratic Party hostage. Any voter that disagrees with the Senator is immediately branded a racist or not a true Democrat. Well, I am a Senator Clinton supporter and I don't agree with the Senator's politics/policies and will not be supporting him.

Yes We Can IIIIIII!!!!!! Clinton's both of them are Untrustworthy

perhaps McCain can get ABBA ......

I've been a long time Republican for all my life. But for the past decade, all I have seen is my wages go down, which adversely affected my wife and 4 kids. I'm not even sure why I voted Republican for all of these years, but I suppose it has been a family tradition in believing that Republicans shared America's values. That is not the case now, I don't believe so. I'm not so trusting of John McCain, but i'm neither trusting of Barack Obama. I don't trust McCain because he comes from a time of economic slump and wartime, and he might just want to bring all that back here to Texas by deploying more troops and seeing more killed. I don't trust Barack Obama because... well to be honest, i'm not sure why? He hasn't done anything to make me distrusting of him. I guess it might be because he's not like a typical American – white and wholesome.

I am writing this because i would like to admit that i was a racist before, but for the betterment of this country, we need not go to our past and pick the candidate from the past. We instead NEED to elect Barack Obama, whether or not we have any qualms about trusting him. The time is now. I'm going to move to Canada if McCain is elected. Sorry my fellow Americans, but just like I voted for Bush the last two times, i'm not voting for McCain. The fact of the matter is, if you vote for McCain, don't complain for what he does to you and what he will do further to my family.

YES WE CAN ... STOP OBAMA NOW!!
YES WE CAN ... STOP OBAMA NOW!!
YES WE CAN ... STOP OBAMA NOW!!
YES WE CAN ... STOP OBAMA NOW!!
YES WE CAN ... STOP OBAMA NOW!!
YES WE CAN ... STOP OBAMA NOW!!

DEMOCRATS FOR MCCAIN, TIME FOR REAL CHANGE NOT A SIDE SHOW!!!

CLINTON DEMOCRATS FOR MCCAIN!!! CHANGE WITH A PLAN!!

Sounds like if you can get Obama off the agenda it will be a good show.

CLINTON DEMOCRATS FOR MCCAIN!!!

OBAMA MADE A BAD CHOICE IN BIDEN THE ONLY WAY WE CLINTO DEMOCRATS WOULD HAVE SUPPORTED OBAMA IS IF HE SHOWED US THE RESEPCT OF PLACING HILLARY ON THE TICKET!!

HE HAS SHOWED US AGAIN HIS JUDGEMENT IS POOR AND HE IS NOT READY TO LEAD!! I AM GLAD HE IS FALLING IN THE POLLS AS AMERICANS YOUNG AND OLD REALIZE HE IS NOT READY TO LEAD... HIS CHANGE THEME IS A JOKE BECAUSE OBAMA IS POLITICS AS USUAL...

JOHN MCCAIN IS CHANGE WE NEED HE PROVEN BIPARTISM RECORD AND WILLINGNESS TO WORK WITH ALL PARTIES WILL LEAD US TO A BRIGHT PROSPEROUS FUTURE!!

CLINTON DEMOCRATS FOR MCCAIN!!!

Obama/Biden 08!
Yes they can!

Hilary Clinton that old middleaged women is just jealous that young handsome Barack Obama who would make an excellent president has stolen her thunder. Jealous, jealous , jealous. I am Barack's age and I am voting for him.

YES WE CAN, YES WE CAN

OBAMA/BIDEN 08

Hillary maybe you can try again in 2012, thats what you were planning since long before loosing, by giving the republicans so much amunition against barack, good luck. and now after so much damage and divisive politics you want to try and unite us please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yes we can ! barack/biden for 2 terms

what Qualifies you to be a U. S president? experience? none of the people applying for the job has ever held the position or anything like it before. So i think we need a little more than that , judgement, Vision and Integrity,character, background and what you propose to do for the American people are way more important since you are not an incumbent candidate you don't have presidential experience to be literal. a president and a senator do extremely different thing and POTUS has way more power and does a whole lot more 27 years in the senate will not give you a clue in of a day in the life of a president.
Obama beats Mccain on all those other fronts only thing mccains been on the senate longer. to me that alone doesn't Qualify him to be POTUS, he lacks the Vision, character , and his platforms doesn't work for me. What he is proposing we have been doing for 71/2 years and quiet frankly we need change. Doing the same thing and expecting a difference is insanity. I am willing to let try something new and know that if we all come together we can make it work. This just my real opinion there's nothing stronger than the people not even money. 65-70 percent of americans don't want out this iraq war and about the same number names the economy as their number 1 concern and the average american household income is $35,000 so John Mccain is really not that aligned with the people .. Thats why i am voting for Barrack Obama not because i am some "Koolaid" drinking " Yes We Can" chanting obamabot or what ever u call people who believe in and support the Obama Campaign...In november we will see if people have the courage to vote their hearts think about your Family and your lives when you pull that leveler because this elections is very important , vote for what benefits them.

Desire – Michigan – Clinton wouldn't bring 18 million votes. I think she did an awesome job last night but a big chunk of those 18 million votes would never vote for Obama even if she were on the ticket and some of those (a lot of them) were Republicans.

If she REALLY had 18 million supporters, she wouldn't still be in debt.

His selfishness and arrogance gave the Clintons two nights at HIS convention.

Again, who schedules this stuff? Don't they know there are Brady Bunch reruns on at the same time.

NOT NOW, NOT EVER, NOT OBAMA. The DNC will go down in flames with their celebrity candidate.
You all saw the strongest woman in the world last night. The DNC could have let the election take it's course and she would be our nominee who would surley beat McCain.
Now they have this joker who couldn't beat George Bush in an election.
McCain 08 I will vote republican 1st time in 56 years.
NOBAMA

> I see gas prices are coming down for several days in a row.. thank you Mr. Bush,

Wow... stupidity at work. Listen, there was this thing called the Olympics and it was held at this place called China and this China place, they practically banned automobiles in one of the biggest cities during this time. In Economics, there's this thing called "supply and demand"... oh forget it, please go back to watching American Idol.

If the rich and famous support him, he has to be good, right? right?
More proof that it's nothing but a popularity contest for the Dems, and a contest to gain the blessing of the religious right for the Repubs. This is why I'm writing in "none of the above" this year.

Enough with the Obama celebrity attacks already. For we all know that Ronald Regan was the biggest celebrity ever...The man was an ACTOR before his political career (have we forgotten)!

You hear that sound? It's Obama steadily sinking in the polls and surrendering his lead to McCain in every category. McCain survived five years in a living hell called a POW camp. The milquetoast Obama would not have lasted 5 minutes in that camp. McCain overcame that challenge with courage and dignity. Obama's biggest challenge in his life to date: overcoming his student loans.

Obama: No experience, No accomplishments, No way!

Obama: It's like putting the batboy in charge of the baseball team.

Enough with the haters! Obama will do plenty for America but Thursday will be a time to celebrate. We're on our way to having a new president with judgment and vision for our country. Let's end the Republican rule!

Oh, and Laila, don't mess with post-menopausal women. You'll get there one day. My opinion is that by the time you reach this stage of your life, you can say whatever you want.

Great!!!!!!!!!! I'll be watching the whole event.

To all of you negatives out there simply open your minds and think through the consiqueces of another four years of a republican administration.

yes we can sorry hillary!

Love this! I'm sure Middle America and older voters will be just tickled pink to hear the Chosen Music of The New World Order.

THANK GOD WE AND ARE SOLDIERS WATCHING DON'T HAVE TO HEAR ANOTHER POW STORY. OBAMA/BIDEN

Ha Ha, We will remember your ignorence in November. Your decisions are ridiculous. Democrats cannot and should not lead in 2009.

if anyone loses the dems the election this year, its going to be the bone head hillary fans.

Why was John Edwards, who had one known affair, replaced with Clinton, who had many known affairs? I didn't think anyone cared. It appears as a motivational speech contest instead of a policy event.
We must be the laughing stock of the world. A serious event with non-serious people. Amazing.

Bill.Im.not...

Yes, apparently YOUR VOTE is worth so much more somehow than a actor or celeb vote.

You must feel really special!

Bill.Im.not.....smart. yeah, we know.

I hope Obama says a wonderful speech and move people as he has moved me. People need to remember in the primary Obama registered millions and millions of new voters. Sorry PUMA this is Obama's year! See the Democratic party is for all, not for who you think is entitled!

I can hardly wait!!!
I hope they also play the my american prayer video.

We are making history! God Bless American and the Democratic Party!!
We will take our country back – we will end the war mongering – the fear mongering – the hate mongering – the race baiting – and the bitterness heaped on us from the past 8 years of the Bush/Cheney Republican administration.
For the best coverage go to MSNBC or c-span.

We are the United Democrats of America!!
Vote Smart – Obama-Biden '08!

The whole PUMA movement is just STUPID. Remember, you reap what you sew. The whole idea is to unite the party not to continue to cause division. As the saying goes, "United we stand, divided we fall." This is the exact reason why I remain independent because it is the issues that matter the most; what the candidate stands for, his/her platform and positions. True Hillary supporters would know that Senator Obama, and Senator Clinton agree on 95% of the issues. One thing that I can truly say about the Republican Party is that for the most part they are loyal to their nominee (because of platforms) not because their "guy/gal" lost fair and square in the primaries. If a dog was their nominee, they would rally behind the dog with bumper sticker and all– RinTinTin 2010! I have a sneaky suspicion that if Obama loses to Senator Mc Cain (GOD FORBID) in November that Hillary's chances in 2012 would not be great because the party will be more divided than ever! Be careful what you do...Doing things out of spite and malice only comes back to haunt you in the end.

> A rock star candidate with no competence will be standing on a
> greek god stage speaking to his worshipers.

As opposed to a shriveled, addled has-been whose only claim to fame was to have been shot down in East Asia in between flunking out of the Naval Academy and doing shots of whiskey off the stomaches of the mistress of the week. Please go ahead and vote for McCain. After he repeals women's rights to vote, we won't ever have to hear a peep out of the likes of you.

That's cool of Will.i.am-this is about the future, about everyday Americans who are suffering because of perpetual war and its human and economic cost. We cannot afford anyone other than Barack.

McCain = Worst.Candidate.Ever

I am reading the comments of the people who post on the CNN political ticker. I see those who hate Obama and those who are for Obama. It pleases me to the umpteenth degree to know that the people who are for change, the people who are for progress, the people who support Barack Obama and the Democratic party VASTLY outnumber the people who don't.
If you look at the whole thing you can tell that the people who are against Obama are fighting a losing battle. This is a battle that they CONNOT WIN! WILL NOT WIN. In November a change will come for the better. We are going to win because we have more people who believe. We are unified. WE ARE
FIRED UP AND READY TO GO!!!

Reminds me of those heavy weight fights that looked like a circus!

Yes we can

and the angry and hater PUMAS here

hey if you dont like it

go away to form your little island with the queen and king

see who follows you or puts any attention

move on
change is here

YES WE CAN,YES WE CAN. YES WE WILL.

GO OBAMA/BIDEN '08-'12

"would you hire someone just out of Havard with an MBA to run a Fortune 500 company?"

If my other choice was John McCain, you bet I would!

Yes vote for McCain–his plans are
1- taxing your health coverage–so you'll be taking home less money
2-more tax breaks for the oil companies–their his buddies too–get with it
3-privatiizing social security-–there goes the social security system you've been putting money into
4-no matter who is President because of Bush-taxes have to be raised–McCain is lying wghen he says he won't–they have too–wake up PUMAS
5-IF your a woman–go to Canada because–your giving up your rights

so vote for McCain–we'll all be going to Mexico looking for Jobs

You wanna be PUMA's are PATHETIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(BTW-we know PUMA is nothing more than a GOP funded hate group)

If you vote for MCSame & the Grand Oil Party out of spite you deserve to have your kid drafted to Iran or Iraq....biggots amaze me with their nonsensical arguments.

"Obama is a star, he's all talk, he won't help our national security..."

Yeah, because people actually like and respect him across the GLOBE he's a star....

At least he can and does read and speak correct gammer....

100 years in Iraq & re-instate the draft....great plan for national security...

WOMEN that plan to vote for McCain...2 words you closed minded boobs.....SUPREME COURT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree with the poster above me. If Hillary supporters think they can screw Obama out of this election and get her elected in '12 then they have lost their minds. The majortity of African American voters are dems and will NOT vote Hillary in '12 if they screw us out of quite possibly the best president in history. There's a reason this man is both black and white, and there is a reason he is preaching hope and unity. Don't let your pretty political squabbles turn you into Judas'. The last thing we need is another rich closed-minded out-of-touch cowboy as the president. Can you say depression II?

That old former playboy John McSame has not a clue about the problems americans are facing, he could care less.

Obama proved to the worl that he ist more suitable to be commander and chief of this nation, MacSame with his baseball cap on his head
looks lost. He needs Lieberman on his side to whisper to him what to say.
How can a man like that lead any nation, not even a kindergarden
would take him seriously.
Obama will bring real changes, who wants another 4 years of the same.
GO Obama/Biden and show them.

I hope Barry H Obama's friends like Rezco can get out of jail to see the "show", maybe Obambi can mortgage his cheap as hell loan that he got from him to get him out.

Maybe Jerry Wright can do the opening prayer?

William Ayers and the Ward Churchill types can have their little booths on how to blow up American installations and then be part and parcel to HOSTING Barry H Obama's first political party.

Emil Jones can be the greeter and call all black female, Clinton delegates "Uncle Tom's".

What's that you say, you only know of Jerry Wright and whom are these other people that you speak of??? Exactly sheep. Bahhhhh.

Check the polls people, we the non-sheep are paying attention.

No way, No how, NOBAMA.

Oh. That will um, um really be nice I'm sure.

You wanna be PUMA's are PATHETIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(BTW-we know PUMA is nothing more than a GOP funded hate group)

If you vote for MCSame & the Grand Oil Party out of spite you deserve to have your kid drafted to Iran or Iraq....bigots amaze me with there nonsensical arguments.

Yeah, because people actually like and respect him across the GLOBE he's a star....

At least he can and does read and speak correct gammer....

100 years in Iraq & re-instate the draft....great plan for national security...

WOMEN that plan to vote for McCain...2 words you closed minded boobs.....SUPREME COURT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will not watch it Will I am
Not in a box
Not with a Fox
I do not like green eggs (Pelosi) and Ham (Obama)

Just what experience does Hillary have being president ????????????

Just what experience does she have at making foreign policy ?????????

Oh yea, she was first lady and not an elected official so therefor not allowed in the meetings. That's where her experience comes from.

Good one Puma idiots !!

Awesome. Get ready for the wave of change to begin! Repubs, your time is over. This is the beginning of a better time for our country.

Obama lost the last chance to unite party after he chose Joe Biden for his running mate. Joe Biden, Senator for 35 long years, brings no change but all Washington trouble. Obama would be better off with Hillary, at least she'll bring 18 million voters with her. If he lose in November it will be only because of his selfishness and arrogance.
Hillary 2012 !

If you guys think that he's showboating then wait till next week and watch your party's convention. They had to trim it down so too much time isn't taken up by accolades to the current president. Not that there is much to say.

Shaun-ga. You don't think the dropping of oil prices has anything to do with China taking over a million cars off the road for the Olympics do you? That might have eased up the demand for oil and dropped the price.

But of course everything is due to the republicans right? Even McCain said the drilling is for 'psychological effects only'. But if you believe that its doing something then you won't have to pay more right?

Its a convention people. Of course there is pageantry. It is a historic event. If you don't like it, don't watch. You have that choice.

Bread and circuses for those who vote their emotions instead of their brains. McCain 08 and Hillary 12.

This will scare half the conservatives out ot their wits, and tick off the rest.

The presidency of America should not be about a dream of a Blackman or the legacy of black people. It is about the vision of one man so that the dreams of many may be realized.

I don't think the Hillary supports are racist at all. Feminists, yes!! Racialy prejudiced...NO!! We were concerned about Obama's lack of experience not his color. We're Democrats and liberals for pete sake. We don't think Hillary was treated with respect by the Obama campaign and we think she was treated terribly by the news media. I, like many Hillary supporters, will now do what is best for the party and best for the country and vote for Obama and pray we are doing the right thing.

The thought of MLK over and over is more then I can stand. Hard to avoid the next day hype so I'll wait for that and watch Law and Order instead.

For anyone who says that Hillary didn't say that Obama is not ready to president was clearly not listening. She said our only hope to survive the next 4 years is to vote Obama into office; I think that statement says it all. Barack is ready to lead. He has MORE experience than someone who spend 5 years as a POW, then came home, divorced his wife (who was still recovering from a near fatal car accident) and married a younger, richer women. McSame is bad news for this world. We need Obama because 4 more years of BUsh policies is likely to be the end of all of us. Look at them inciting a war in Georgia just so McSame can pull ahead in some pulls. Cheny's people were in Georgia 2 weeks before the fighting broke out, that doesn't sound weird to anyone? Iraq part 2 is already starting and Obama will stop it before our country perishes.

Obama/Biden '08 – No Way, No How, No McCain – Yes We Can! Yes We Will!

Will this include a WARDROBE MALFUNCTION?

Hey Obama supporters...show the haters some luv. Because for them to hate only means that we're doing something right!!

I luv all you Obama haters

And by the way, Obama is older than Bill Clinton, JFK, Teddy Roosevelt, and Ulysses S. Grant were when they became president.

Again, luv you haters

GO democrats 08'

Somebody PLEASE remind Sean Hannity that his GOD RONALD REAGAN was a CELEBRITY!!! What would Reagan do, What would Reagon do, What would Reagon do.....?

Awesome!!! I am looking forward to seeing it live!!!

Even if Hillary asked me in person to vote Obama....I wouldn't, I won't, no how, no way. As that Hillary delegate said last night said on CNN....,would you hire someone just out of Havard with an MBA to run a Fortune 500 company? No, no, no! It's all about the experience peeps! I'm still a democrat and look forward to voting that way down ballot.

Yes We Can.... now what can we do... oh yeah sing and dance... world policy... crap... lets go back to yes we can and leave it blank...

K thx...

And Cnn.. Dig deep into this one before you block it...

Wait – McCain Has Daddy Yankee in his camp – its looking bad for Obama celeb support now!

The right is still trying to make the case that being liked by the public is not good for the president. Is that why Bush ran the govt the way he did, so we wouldnt like him?

By the way, they sure licked the Gipper's butt because he was a Hollywood actor..........

Yes Rock the vote united Democrates will love the concert... the DNC convention has been awesome even with the media trying to protray strife within our party (that is news for them I suppose) I use to think that CNN was a non bias news station .... HUM not so much... on to CSPAN and MSNBC ...

I am so excited about this year's DNC. I've never really paid much attention to the previous ones because I was never encouraged to learn what they were really all about. To me elections have always been about technical things way over my head. I always voted, because I always want to be counted and I based my decisions on whatever I read in the newspaper or in news magazines. This year is entirely different. This year everyone can get involved because the effort has been made to explain the processes in layman terms, and the signifigance of each event has been highlighted throughout this election cycle.
I'm excited and happy to see pop musicians and such taking part and showing their support, however I'm a little apprehensive about how this is going to go over in terms of the seriousness of the democratic party.
Oh well, I guess I'll just enjoy it, and rejoice in the possibility that this is the start of a new improved USA

So far all those who oppose Obama can come up with is name calling. McCain, the RNC, and most of these morons who haven'tt had an original thought in their entire life. Why is that?

It is so terribly sad that people will vote for McCain and this old guy has not once stated what his plans are besides keeping the Bush tax cuts in effect, which have not worked at all, and drilling for more oil, which has failed to gain any ground in the last eight years. Oh and he did say how he would keep the troops in Iraq as long as needed even though the Iraqis and everyone else wants us out. Continue to spend all our US dollars in Iraq while they continue to build their surplus. Oh yeah and now it's Iran who is the problem...simply someone else to start something with to ensure more war!

Then everyone wonders where this McSame name comes from. Everything he wants is what Bush has already set forth and we are ALL suffering because of it. Where is the change you ask?? Change will come from ANYONE other than McCain. How can anyone justify voting for McCain? They all say well…Obama has no experience. if that's the case then it only means that he's not experienced at destroying something. What TRUE EXPERIENCE has McCain shown?? Copy someone else's ads and continue someone's work. He only renewing Bush's policies which has got us all down. The die hard republicans will set the ship on fire while poking holes in all the life boats to see everyone go down because they don't like the captain. How stupid and selfish to destroy everything around them for big money sake and not being willing to see a hint of possible change. How selfish. They want to save from the top down like usual abd have yet to see that their methods haven't worked. Their voting history shows it...they kept a loser in office and want to put another one there.

I like Will i. am.

But personally,
I would prefer to see "Obama Girl" perform on Thursday night. She is the greatest thing since sliced bread. Check her out on youtube.

What a bunch of crap! No wonder so many intelligent voters are turned off by BO!

McCain's time was in 2000. he missed it.
Hillary's time was in 2004. she missed it.

too late now.

Yes we can Democrat keep going nerver stop listen to the advice of hillary clinton, Nerver stop to get to where you want to be, but need to elect Barack obama to get you there.

comments like these are stupid how republicans get people to say anything and not think! : <I am so glad Hillary did not say in her speech that Obama is ready to be President. We all know he is not.

Barack Obama does not need someone to tell America he is ready to lead! Barack Obama has chosen to run for President because he knows that he is ready to lead...this is not a child running for President!

Republicans should start asking themselves why McCain has been a follower for 26 years. He is not ready to lead...he had followed Bush/Cheney and he had led us to these disastrous times. This race is historic because America had a woman and an african american running for president where McCain is running to save the face of the republican party! Barack does not have to save any faces! The democrats can face anything including cleaning up after the mess left by repulicans!

Again, this is historic because no other past president has ever inherit such a mess...and we do not need to give back the power to the party who created that mess..It would not be historic it would be suicidal. We have a leader who can bring people together at the White House to clean up the White House! We do not need a cleaner who is just ready to clean...We need a leader who can bring the Cleaning company ready to clean with him their House once and for all!

I would consider myself a moderate (voted for Bush in '04). It is my hope that this country can get past it's racism and insecurities and vote for a man with character, family values, vision and the courage to make tough decisions. I will be watching on Thursday. Rock star? Not sure if that's it, but he has something this country desperately needs and with courage we will get it in '08. It is time to move forward America – OBAMA in '08 all the way.

Guess he needs them to fill that stadium. I would not pay to see either Obama or Will.i.am....

Really? How stupid can Obama's people be? Black musicians backed up by a gospel choir? Good grief. McCain's going to be the next president. Somebody shoot me.

The other day (I think yesterday) there was a title that said Hip-Hop Republicans. I'm not sure if anyone watched the iReport but it was pretty awful. Some republicans coined the buzz word "Hip-Hop Republican" into a term basically meaning minorities that are trying to bridge that gap within republicans and get the word out, etc. However it had nothing to do with Hip-Hop. I officially deem this 'Hip-Hop Democrats". I don't support a certain party, but I don't like approve of false buzz words.

I could careless about all the musician playing on Thursday night makes no difference to me. We need to get Obama In as president. McCain will drive this country to the brink of extinction.

No way! No How! No McCain!

Obama/Biden '08

Some of you people need to get a life. There is always entertainment at the convention. Just because they've brought in young hip entertainers and not the band from the Lawrence Welk show doesn't mean Obama isn't worthy. It is a new generation. Were you all complaining years ago when Bill Clinton was on MTV playing his sax. You people will look for anything to pick at. I never truly realized how silly the American public can be.

For the record I am a 50 year old white woman and I like John Legend, will.i.am and the black eyed peas – I have them all on my Ipod.

(CNN please post you never post my comments)

Bush = McCain; McCain = Bush

I'm not sure of what all the talk is about, but the AMERICAN people should look at OBAMA'S voting Habits. The people will see just what he is about. NO OBAMA for President.
------

More show for the show with no substance.
80,000 fans at the Obama Show!
Is this a convention or Super Bowl half time party.

To the Republicans/ McCain supporters who say Obama is a celebrity driven politician, lets remember that everyone's favorite President, Ronald Reagan was an actor (he was also a Democrat until he hooked up with his 2nd wife, Nancy Davis). And what about the CA governator, Arnold??
Maybe the Republicans can have the singing Senators perform at their convention next month or maybe Cindy McCain can sing some patriotic songs to the audience.

Look above me.

All the hate? Republicans.

All the love and goodwill? Democrats.

Ask yourself why that is always the case?

VOTE YOUR HOPES, NOT YOUR FEARS AMERICA.

Don't let the old white guys scare you into voting for someone you have nothing in common with.

Obama/Biden 08'

Vote for McCain. Lose your rights. Lose your job. Lose your health insurance. But you'll have plenty of oil to put in the car you just got reposessed.

To all of the truly sincere Hillary Supporters:

A VOTE FOR MCCAIN = A VOTE AGAINST HILLARY.
(PUMA'S take note).

Democrats United '08

Why the complaints? Rock stars and celebrities are citizens too and they too will exercise their franchise come November. If they want to perform at the convention so be it. You are just JEALOUS because the prospects of anyone worth their salt appearing at your convention look very slim.

Are the Repuglicans (they earned that label to me when they started attacking Obama's innocent children) trying so hard to make Obama out to be a celebrity because racist USAers will accept a black celbrity?????
To them it is okay for blacks to entertain them but not to lead them. Blacks could entertain at the Cotton Club in New York but they had to come in throught the back door and could not be part of the audience.

Oh goodness I hope I can skip this crap when I surf by.

Just what we need ... a guy in the oval Office who thinks he's a rock star. Enjoy your 15 months of fame Barrack, until you fade into a historical footnote as the first black coulda been, shoulda been, but wasn't quite ... President.

All show, no substance. Oh yes, there was that speech in the Illinois state senate in 2002. The Obama rocket is burning the last of its fuel and is on its way back down to Earth.

The Democrats blew it. Hillary would have stomped McCain. Obama ... sending a boy to do a man's (or a woman's) job.

What a circus this has turned out to be. Never Obama will I vote.

In the end he will lose because all of you people deluding yourself in cyberspace, busy typing away blog, blog, blog, text , text, text, porn, porn, porn will not actually get out of your mother's basements and walk out into the light of the real world blinking away long enough to actually stand in line in the real world and vote because its too scary in the real world where you are reminded of how much of a failure you and all of your generation "Y (bother)" are. Its OK, just keep texting away. Pathetic! No wonder we are is such trouble. No one makes or does anything for real anymore, its all virtual. Go ahead and hide behind your computers. You will all be very disappointed on election day. But the good news is you can make believe Obama – nation won in cyberspace and he can be your virtual president forever! No term limits in second life.

Obama = Stevie Wonder
McCain = ABBA

America, the choice is clear!

I will be delighted to see Obama elected president AFTER he has served two terms as HILLARY'S VP. He is not able to EARN THE TRUST OF VOTERS. THE SUPER DELEGATES NEED TO DO THEIR JOB AND DRAFT A HILLARY/OBAMA TICKET FOR '08. Otherwise, we are doomed to another 4 years of republican degradation of our ECONOMY, THE COURTS, INTERNATIONAL STANDING, ENVIRONMENT, WOMEN'S RIGHTS....

Never.heard.of.him!

Can't wait until Thursday
BARACK THE VOTE !!!

obama da fool!

Another Rock Concert-
Great for the kiddies-
Poor for the people who actually vote-

He is the one that doesn't really get it –

Well how nice the rock star is using his rock star friends... I suppose Oprah will be there too...

Meanwhile I just had to put $3.00 of gas in my car in change to get my daughter home from school. I see gas prices are coming down for several days in a row.. thank you Mr. Bush, even though Obama refuses to agree drilling AND new technology is the way to go

This Obama guy is not ready to lead; he literally makes me sick. He nauseates me I can not fathom why people are behind him…. Not for a second.

A slick road show cannot make up for lack of substance and experience

McCain has no real leadership qualities- he was only a POW, nothing more.

McCain is not qualified to lead.

First off, celebrities are people also with voting rights! If Obama was a white man, this wouldnt be such an issue. Im tired of people talking about how Obama acts so arrogant, like a celebrity, he has to also appeal to the younger generation which is our future!

i voted for the gal. darn it anyway! ok mr O, you get the wheel.

it's more pathetic then humourous how jealous and surly some sound because great performers with pull are just naturally wanting to support the big o.

i have nothing against the average republican at all. it's so sad to see this jealously and weakness in some though. continues to remind me why I could "never pull the lever" for the base of fear and sactimony that comes from the remnents of the former authenitic political party now turned Pious Posturers incorporated.

Obama has "Will i am".

But guess what, John McCain was a POW!

will i am -good choice finally -should have chosen hillary as vp too.
biden voted for the war too-judgement ?? like rev wright said" just another politician"
hillary 2012

The blue collar worker who's been told he is a victim of the "rich" will be thrilled that will i am is there. He was so close to making it on his own, but his union rep reminded him he's nothing without the union and the government support of the union. How sad. All he needed was a little push from a culture that reminded him this is the USA, and you can accomplish what you want regardless of anything. So the liberals have taken all this away from him-from his educational upbringing to what he sees on TV. Now he's told YES WE CAN. Maybe if he learned YES I CAN in school rather than "you are a victim," he'd be ok.

McShame... invite Abba... Am sure Liberman, Rudy, BUsh and Cheney will attract about 10 people.

Well, as usual, I know that you will not post this but here goes.

This goes to show that this is all Obama is about – show people, partying, bowing down and worshiping the self-proclaimed one – Obama.

Don't you people get sick of Obama being about Obama and what Hollywood people can do for him? IF, and I mean a BIG IF – he had any substance, he would win the election based on what he can do for America, not what America can do for him. You people really need to grow up and realize that we (real Americans) know that we have to protect ourselves from terrorists, threats and also insiders who would love to destroy the US. Come on, pleople, it's time to grow up and stop playing games – this is serious business and we need a leader who knows how to take things serious and make this country work. John McCain is that leader. Once he is elected, maybe some of these "Hollywood" stars can invite Obama out their and get him and his wife into acting for movies instead of in real life. CNN – you need to clean sweep your reporters and find some who want a real, serious job – one that provides real news coverage.

After suffering through the past 8 years, we NEED Obama!

Bush = McCain

McCain = Bush

Senator Barack Obama will restore America to the great land of opportunity it was and still can be. As a young child, growing up in The Netherlands right ofter the WWII, I and envied my cousins and their parents when they emigrated to America; the land of dreams and opportunity. Tthat's the America Barack Obama will give back to us and to the world; a shining beacon of hope and liberty. I also remember, upon visiting merica, Lady Liberty in the harbour of New York City; one look and my heart swelled with pride, and again I envied my cousins and their parents for coming to America and becoming part of that dream that's called A M E R I C A . Celebrfate America with Barack Obama as President of the Unites States of America!

Sounds good!

I really wish they would get Linkin Park into one of these! I wouldn't miss it for the world if they did! Well I still plan to watch, heh.

I'm really excited for November, will be voting for the first time, I'm sorry republicans and what ever is left of Puma but me and all the other college students that have registered to vote will come huge in November, and we will break the tie for Senator Obama...

Yes we can !!!! What a Great closing this is going to be.

Obama/Biden 08....No way, no how, no McCain! Can I get two of those in a button, and one static graph for my car! Yes, I like it. But then again, for those of you who want McCain, maybe when he makes you homeless, y'all can all move into one of his palatial estates.

Go Obama
I've never voted in my life and I'm 44 years old, but I will this November.
We need change no matter what the party!

Attention Republicans: We now have 28 straight years of proof that Democrats are the Fiscal Conservative party. We have almost 8 full years of proof that the Republican party has no respect whatsoever for the Constitution. Its time to switch, my friends. Too many have been tricked for too long.

**Wow this will be great! Like, four years of Party at 1600! I wonder if I can get Obama to come to our frat party? It would be SO cool!**

Ok, are the kids in bed now? Can the grown-ups talk?

Why was Reagan's celebrity a good thing, but Barack's "celebrity" a bad thing? And wouldn't frequent appearances on TV (like last night's spot on Leno) qualify McWar, er, McSame, er, McAncient, er McCNN, er, McBush,er, McOldManLiar a celebrity also?

P.S. google Songbird and learn the truth about McCain's traitorous past! He is no patriot!

I'm not alone when I say that all eyes will be watching to see just exactly HOW many hands will be over the heart during the National Anthem. I'm sure the league of the elite won't screw this one up. Surely. Especially if O' wants to be elected. And, I'm praying the version of the song will be the original version as well.

I knew it and being saying it for months there was going to have to be a concert to get people there. Just like the Portland and Berlin crowds. We will never know what he can do on his own. Even though the tickets were sold out within I believe 24 hours everyone knew there would be a concert.

It's funny because I go to other major news sites and watch on TV and, although still talking about upset Hilary supporters, they find Hillary supporters with very touvhing stories who are now Obama supporters. In a need for drama and to boost their ratings, CNN has not done such thing. In fact they gave 10 uninterrepted minutes to a Hillary backer last night dissing Obama. I bet CNN almost blew their load over that. In fact I saw them play a portion again today. CNN is almost becoming a video version of the National Enquirer.

the video is awesome- go check it out on youtube..

there's also another video there by an english musician that is amazing..

Please give me a break. More pathetic dopes in the enternatinment industry falling head over heals for O'Buma

YEAH BABY........The place is gonna rock. Pssst..hear that McBush....thats the sound of your resounding defeat in Nov!

I take it, that we get to mock McCain when he gets Lawrence Welk to be at RNC.

and Obama wants to look crediblle...plus didn't Hillary win N.H.

I am reading some of these comments and i can not understand a lot of peoples thought processes.

Obama is empy, or Obama just likes publicity or Obama will mess up America.

All im saying where is the evidence to support these claims, everyone likes to make judgements off of emotion with no evidence to support the claim. This type of thinking got us 8 years of Bush and what do we have to show for it, record debt, a useless war that just diverts the attention spans of simple minds.

Oh and my favorite is The republicans are strong on terror than the democrats and we are safer under republicans.

Well if i remember correctly 9/11 happened on bush's watch

AND ITS NOT ABOUT race?????????????
McCain 2008!!!

this isn't doing much to kill his celebrity image

If I were Obama I would think twice about having a man who sings about "Lovely Lady Lumps" be my spokesman....

It will be Obama Party!

No way. No how. No McCain!!!!
No way. No how. No McCain!!!!
No way. No how. No McCain!!!!
No way. No how. No McCain!!!!

SeeY'allIn2012!!! August 27th, 2008 2:45 pm ET

You mean 2016. We realize that was a TYPO.

As long as Paris and Brittney aren't there I guess it's OK. They will take heat for it, but this will be one HUGE AMERICAN PARTY that no American would want to miss. Stevie could get 75K by himself. This will be a call to action for America and the question is will we respond?

Presidential?

"No way, no how, no chance, no" Obama!

No to the narcissistic Barack!

This former democrat will vote for John McCain 08! He is a strong, honest man of integrity and authenticity who, like Hillary Clinton, is in touch with mainstream America!

Come on people...this is just music. There's nothing wrong with entertaining the crowd between speakers. As for the comment about rap music for four years...just plain ignorant!

It will be a great night for all Democrats!

THIS IS FANTASTIC!

OBAMA/BIDEN '08-'12

to all these McCain supporters.
your greatest Republican president., Ronald Reagan was an actor!!!! therefore in your own opinion.. Obama will be great!

This CAN NOT be beat!!! Everyone who has been damaged by the last 8 years needs to vote Obama/Biden!!!!

It is Obama time, OOOOOOh yes!!!

How proud I am of Will-i-am. This ranks up there with "We are the World"

Your work and the work of others really stood out. A+

Obama/Biden 08"

Maybe ABBA can play for McCain's gig.

Does ABBA do bingo halls?

It’s going to be a beautiful night. We are going to positively hope and work for a peaceful and prosperous future or our country. YES. WE. CAN.

The biggest mistake being made by
1. MSM
2. Pollsters
3. The Republicans
4. People who pay attention to polls in AUGUST
is to underestimate and discount the number of young american voters.
They are not being polled, they don't read CNN, MSNB or any other MSM blogs BUT they will probably never forget how no one took them seriously enough to think that they matter.
They are the future "Swing Voters" of this country.
You are all foolish to ignore them.

YYYYYAAAAyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. Some folk will always be Stuck on Stupid as indicated in the posts here. I know change can be scary and sometimes difficult when that change comes thru and unfamiliar face....I'll send up a prayer for you.
Go Obama!!

Just say NO to McBush

Just say NO to McBush

Just say NO to McBush

Just say NO to McBush

LET'S DO THIS!

OBAMA / BIDEN 08!

It will be Andy Griffith performing at McAncients convention

Hey I have an idea for you...instead of being a negative hater, why not focus on the positive...whats better, hating on "post-menopausal bickering women that don't have their heads on straight" or trying to be positive about all the good things Obama can potentiall offer. You are as bad as those you say you stand. I am not a Hillary fan by an strech, but are you saying that 18 million people don't count and that anyone who doesn't agree with Obama is racist?? If that is the case than I guess I'm one because I don't trust a man who votes for a program instituted by Dick Cheney (FISA).

Hillary/Warner 2012!

Only a Clinton can defeat an incumbent Republican president!
We'll need her to defeat McCain in four years.
Obama will not win.
He's unelectable.
Said so Since
Day one!

What does will.i.am have to do with America?

This is very sad.

0'Biden 08!

Barack is going to make history on Thursday and everyone will be there to enjoy it.

Thursday is going to be GREAT......

Great!! Looking forward to Thur.!!

Forget these Celebrity attacks. Every one ungry for a smart president with judgement should rally behind the democrats.

The best aspirations, emotions and sentiments of human beings will prevail this time!!!

The real dream ticket...

Hillary/Warner 2012!

Why? If Obama loses, and it looks like he will, and McCain will win.....

Only a Clinton can defeat a Republican Incumbent president...

Nice hat...who's the guy on the right? First time on that side, Barack?

LOL, it's OK California Voter, I'm 58 and I know who Wil.i.am is. Young talented and smart, I'm sure you'll like him.

Too bad Barack Obama abandoned the original “Yes We Can”-hope-change premise of his presidential bid as best exemplified by his New Hampshire primary night speech in favor of the cynical politics of just winning.

It would have been interesting to see what would have happened if Obama ignored the political “professionals” and stayed on message.

That message, while inspiring at the time, is long gone.

thanks for the advance notice! that will be a great time to take a nap or get a colonoscopy.

Obama/Biden, 08!

It is going to be wonderful. Look for the McCain supporters and the pundits to chime in with the negatives. As I see it those who can do and those who can't look for something negative to say about it. Let's see McCain do this.

who?

Awesome – Obama deserves all of our attention and support!

Not sure why CNN thought that this was news worthy

Party like a Rock Star
Party like a Rock Star
Party like a Rock Star

A rock star candidate with no competence will be standing on a greek god stage speaking to his worshipers.

thatnks for the advance notice! i think that will be a good time to take a nap, or have a colonoscopy.

To those of you who thing that Hillary has a chance in 2012, without the support of African Americans, it’s impossible to get the Democratic nomination and presidency . The Democratic Party is home to almost ALL of the African American voters in this country. Read the reports. Check out the breakdowns of voters and be careful who you offend. We need each other.

Excellent! But where is the news about Senator McCain and how much he enjoys Daddy Yankee's song 'Gasolina?' Wonder if they will be playing that one at the Republican convention?

Will.i.am is going to bring the hous down. I can't wait.

If Obama were white, then we won't be giving Clintons so much publicity. What happened to our media?

And Jennifer Hudson will be doing the National Anthem. I can't wait. This is going to be great. I'm watching C-span to make sure I don't miss any of it!

Since when is being admired by millions of people a bad thing? Actors and musicians are just as excited about this election as the rest of us, and they have the right to use their status to get the word out about why they support Obama and not McCain.

Funny how most of these celebrities make a lot of money...shouldn't they be interested in McCain's tax plan?

They prefer Obama because he's the better candidate.

Should get the young-uns there, anyway.

I can't wait for Thursday night. It is going to be a pivotal moment in this election year.

McCain has no real leadership qualities. His big military claim to experience, beyond I was a POW, was at Pensacola. Ask your self why if McCain did such a great job with the training Squadron in FL. did the Navy ship him off to a dead end job in DC after. When I was in that usually meant you screwed up and they were going to get you to resign and get out. If McCain is going to run on his military experience. I think it's time the Media examines that claim.

Neato.

Okay,
I can't wait to read what the Anti-Obamites have to say on this blog.

They will probably make reference to Obama again as a "Rock Star" or "Celebrity". But hey, it is what it is...

Don't be jealous just because McCain can't attract gread headliners for his convention. In fact, there are a lot of Republicans who will be skipping the GOP convention next week. I wonder why....

yes we can. The martin luther king dream is almost there. God has create obama for a purpose. He ia combination of Black and White to create unity among the the two races. This god work to stop racist.

That's going to be AMAZING.

Yes he can, become our president for the good of Americans!!

Very Appropriate...Yes We Can....Yes I am....Will I am....You Go Obama...

WHOOOOPIE!!!!

It is going to be a wonderful night, and I know Obama will deliver the speech of his career. I just hope that these pumas and others will do as their hero Clinton says and look beyond her and enjoy themselves. I have a feeling this has everything to do with race, and nothing to do with Hilary. I also want to say since given the opportunity finally...I am so dissapointed in the coverage of this convention. You have taken it from the nominee and threw it too a bunch of post-menopausal bickering women that don't have their heads on straight, as usual. Is there anything that Obama can just win without having to prove himself over and over again. Oh silly me I forgot, Obama is black. I am looking forward to the night and will be watching it on c-span or PBS that way I can decide how it goes and I don't need the devisive pundits telling me how it goes and not letting me see anything.

Yes we can, to opportunity and prosperity!

WHO ? Guess he is meant to appeal to the under 40 crowd.

After Clintons, let's focus on Obama the nominee of the party now!!

YES WE CAN!! DEMOCRATS UNITE!! YES WE CAN!!

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! I love SMART celebrities. Please, Scarlett Johansen, stay the hell away, lol.

There's no way we can put up with all the rapping for the next four years while our economy, security and future in foreign relations go down the drain. All Obama thinks being President is one party after another. Don't be foolish America.

cool.

O = Official
B = Bone-headed
A = Agent for
M = Messing up
A = America

All the trappings of Woodstock, with equal importance. Obama is just wind, no ideas, no vision. He IS like Brittney Spears, a "corporate" politician (George Soros in this case).

That Howard Dean, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid has put this idiot out front of the democrats should be considered treason.

SO GLAD TO SEE DENVER BECOME THE NEW STAGE FOR HOLLYWOOD. AND IT'S LATEST STARS, FLIP AN FLOP.

ALREADY SEE THE CLIMATE CHANGE.

ALOHA

Here come the McCain supporters saying that Obama need performances to bring a crowd.

Before you post that, remember that tickets sold out within 24 hours for this event and no performances were announced at that time.

No way. No how. No McCain!!!!

This is why I will not vote for Obama..THis whole thing is a joke.

I am so glad Hillary did not say in her speech that Obama is ready
to be President. We all know he is not.

Yes we can!

Try to top this RNC!!!

Obama/Biden '08

YAY!
