CNN

Gods Speed Barack Obama.

Unfortunately this is likely a poor reflection of what voters are really thinking in Ohio. I live in the northern part of Ohio, and I'm happy to say that most people are for Obama. However, mid to southern Ohio has gone republican time and time again. The last democratic candidate to catch Ohio's eye was President Clinton. There are a lot of blue collar, white voters in Ohio that would never admit to being racist. Although Obama is what they need in the White House (given the economy, jobs being shipped, tax relief, poor education, etc.), they won't vote for Obama because he's black. It's sad to say, but it's the truth. Ohio is a very segregated state, and it's NOT BY ACCIDENT! I hope that I'm wrong on this one, but my gut and experience leads me to believe that I'm not. CNN may not post my comment because it speaks to the racial divide in Ohio.

What I don't understand is how the media allows distorted facts to continue being aired. The fact is Sarah Palin is not qualified to be VP of the US. I am a Republican that will refuse to vote if Sarah Palin is the VP. She is just one heartbeat away from the Presidency, that is very scary. I love my mother dearly, but that does not qualify her for the Presidency. I am a Republican, but that does not mean that I will vote for mediocrity and that is what our ticket has become. It is shameful that of all the qualified female candidates Mr. McCain chooses the least educated and least experienced. Shame on you Mr. McCain! You have betrayed our great nation by risking our childrens future. Our enemies must be rejoicing at the pathetic choice you have made and how they will ematiate our position on the global arena even further with our choice of leaders. To win a global chess game you need people who know the rules of engagement. Sarah Palin doesn't even know how the game is played.

My fellow Ohioans are too smart to vote for McCain, one responsible for relocating many of our jobs (over 800+ just recently).

Tell us McBizarro, how are you going to fix our economy when you and your policies have shipped out all of our jobs? We don't give a hoot about a tax break when we don't have an income in the first place.

Wake up people!!! You are all being duped by the McCain/Palin ticket!! Lies Lies Lies... distortions abound! When Rove states that McCain is running a sleazy campaign... think about it!

Obama started his poor judgement when he attended the Church of Hate for 20 Years–
Not picking Hillary for his running mate was the height of his arrogance-
Just remember - Towards the end of the DEm Primary season when Hillary wiped the floor with him when she started being honest about his record ( Lack thereof )
The polls were not that bad when he was winning-THe exit polls were useless because people stated they voted for Obama but could not pull the lever–
Thug Chicago Politics - Resko
Hateful Church - Rev. Wright ( His Mentor )
Ayers–I didn't do enough Bombings
You are most definitely judged by the company you keep–

It does not matter who wins. 90% + employment in this country is by for profit organizations. The Congress votes enable the president to carry out his mandate and function. McCain voting with the president is a good thing. I wonder if congress does not vote with Obama if he becomes president, how he will carry out the changes he is talking about. America do not be stupid about judgement. We do not know good or bad judgement till after the results. I love folks with bold decision. No nation will invade the US if Sarah Palin is president. This is the greatest nation on earth.

What is amazing to me in this election is how ignorant so many people are. Making decisions that will affect themselves without all the information. Basing life changing decision on whims and fads. The people who are going to hurt the most if McCain wins are the same poeple who are being fooled again! Don't ask me for a hand out cause I aint givin' it!

I will get everyone out of a job in Ohio, a job weaving baskets.

How long CNNis let Palin get away without being scrutinized like other candidates. You are so scared that you don't want to go after her. For Heaven;s sake, she is HEART_BEAT away from Presidency if McCain wins (I am praying that won't happen) & we have a right to know everything about her. How long Palin will hide behind sexism curtain? Hillary did not....why should Palin ? You are letting Republicans run your network...Go & Reveal her really.this time. Do your job you are hired to do CNN.

the american people are basically idiots...I don't see how McSame can be leading in ANY state

The national polls do not matter. Obama is still ahead on electoral vote projection on CNN and othe websites.

Yes we can!!!

Obama/Biden 08

Seriously, CNN. I am a long-time viewer, but I am disappointed beyond belief. How long are you going to let Sarah Palin get away with this? Why do you let her friends and family cover for her when refuses interview requests? You have never let another candidate get away with this! If she can't handle an interview, how in the world can she handle the vice presidency, or heaven help us, the presidency...

I find it almost laughable that OHIO of all states would be voting for McCain. With your two top cities on the verge of financial collapse, with nothing in it for them from the Republicans, but OHIO will blindly vote McCain and Palin. DON'T THINK FOR ONE SECOND THAT THE REPULICANS ARE IN THIS FOR YOU. DON'T BE FOOLS.

FLORIDA AND TEXAS HAVE LONG BEEN SONSIDERED TEH TWO MOST F'D UP SATES IN THE COUNTRY.

WITH ALL OF THE MCCAIN VOTERS THIS ELECTION, PERHAPS OHIO SHOULD BE ADDED TO THE LIST.

DON'T DRINK THE REPUBLICAN KOOL-AID PEOPLE. IT'S POISON!

I am watching Sarah palin on t.v. right now, it's ridiculous!!! Same exact speech!! She is a complete puppet for McCain. She is not qualified to be the v.p. of country. It's laughable!!

its so funny watching the GOP shout U-S-A, U-S-A!!! such a self-righteous/selfish mentality in many of them. It's reflected in some of their values like anti-abortion rights (pro-life), anti-affirmative action, pro-war. I mean, honestly...how the heck would you define victory in this war? no weapons found, 4100 + soldiers dead, GOD knows how many innocent Iraqis are dead, our economy in shambles, hated around the world, military stretched to the limit, jobs lost, borrowing money from China. Tell me how we're winning???!!!!! and so many of us Americans are so partisan or so prejudice or so FOOLISH that Mccain and Palin (proven liars, avoiding issues, and threatening MORE war with the "tough talk express") are still in this race...sad, sad, sad.

Ohioians have suffered enough under Republican administration. As a native Ohioian I beg the people to think twice before allowing John McCain to drive you further into poverty and soup lines. Enough is enough.

Ohio, your plight is due directly to Republicans. You are without jobs, without education, and without a plan to get healthy. You have lost your sons and daughters for oil and now paying for it at the pump. You've lost your house and now the car will be repo'd. Let me be clear: don't be stupid enough to think that the Republicans care for you or America. If they did, they would not have bankrupted the nation and made us look like total fools across the globe.

Wake up

Don't forget the Geraldine Ferraro ticket-they lost by a landslide to Reagan-Palin is not QUALIFIED TO BE PRESIDENT. Change the direction of this country by voting Democratic or expect the worse under McCain/Palin. Your Choice!!!

As someone who was born in Southern Ohio (Peebles/West Union) I as mad that the democratic party leaders would accuse the voters in this God's Country of being racist as was accuesd over the weekend in the news. Obama does not share their values of self responsibility, low taxes, and strong military!

Like many misinformed McCain voters, President Clinton not only reached across the isle, but he included Republicans in his decisions for Supreme Court appointees. CNN should moderate for informed comments, and trust me, many of these posts would not even appear.

I seriously believe there should be more debate over whether or not we should have an Electoral College in this country! All peoples' voice should count equally and not be influenced by a state majority! I guess the 2000 election would have certainly have been different without it, huh?...and the world too!

Baldwin/Castle 08!

I never get polled, do you?

Things will change in a few weeks. When the uninformed voters out there finally have time to let this Palin effect sink in with the repeative lies they are spreading, I believe that the tide will turn back to Obama. It will take a few weeks for the dust to settle but it will. McCain is no friend to the vast majority of the american people. I know he's not my friend. I don't believe most americans can stomach 4 more years of the mess this country is in and McCain is more of the same. I hope the american people are not that stupid.

Don't belive the hype!

Obama/Biden 08

Silly me, I kind of thought the "Hope" thing was a forward looking positive slogan that would indicate a "Change" in the usual politics of blame and smear. Unfortunately, OB and his supporters are now 100% smear and negative. Look at the comments on this website !

McCain,(heaven forbit) has tried to point the way to a new direction. Not focusing on OB negatives, but on his push toward a 'maverick' attitude that would clean up the Washington earmarks and other ethics issues. Predictably, it has been met by OB supporters with a vengence for the smear. OB supporters are spending all day and night trying to shout down McCain/Palin by calling them liars. The DNC website for lies is proof. OB is no longer focusing on "Hope". Now, OB wants to get elected by pushing fear. Fear of Bush, fear of McCain, fear of Palin. Politics of fear. Scare people.

PS. Someone might tell the OB campaign that "Fear" does not = "Hope". Two different things. Which choice do the OB supporters choose ? Predictably, they choose fear over "hope". That is the difference between Republicans and Democrats. McCain/Palin are pushing a new direction, one that we need, to clean-up Washington !

Every empire has its down fall. For US it started in 2001. McCain will get elected in 2008 and Palin 2012 and probably republican rule will continue beyond. At that stage even teh most knowlegable economically expertized democart will not be able to recover this country. In 20 yrs from now this will be a third world country. American's decide their own wrong fate. Destiny canot be canaged!

proud army navy mom – I know they (the repuglicans) are using your name posting lies, they have no honor. But come on, if you were them and had no platform to run on and had to resort to lies what would you do? I mean they never can give facts or tell you mccains policies, they just smear Obama and lie. There is a poster Candy West Virginia and I am going to steal her saying 'mccain/palin = proven pathological liars.'

c'mon trailer people. fight that inner racism. vote with your brain – that thing between your ears you call a headache.

Ohio has gone Reublican for the past three Presedential elections, Not this time. Good for Obama/Biden for bringing this thing to a tie. Awesome. BOJO will move ahead in Ohio and then it's on our way to a new and improved Whitehouse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BOJO/08/12

Ohio has always come through with their support of the presidential candidates who will do (not promise) the most for all people of their great state. There's no doubt they will continue this trend in 2008. McCain's brilliant choice of Sarah Palin as his running mate gave all of us the satisfaction that all of us need to exercise our right to the best government available. McCain/Palin is the ticket this time.

Dead head in Ohio.

Dead head in Minnesota.

Dead head in several other states where any real leader of the Democratic Party this year would be way ahead.

Well, it's time for Barack Obama to prove that he's a good Democrat by setting aside his own failed ambitions and using his celebrity to get as many Democrats to Congress as he can.

Obama will be lost the elections in Ohio because he didn't chose for Hillary Clinton as VP. The next presedent shall be McCain.

It is ture that McCain votes 90% GOP and Obama 97% Dem but McCain was the 4th worst offender of not voting in the last congress.

if you want change do you take the one that continually votes for change or more of the same?

Poll of the day, so what

I can't believe that people in general are embacing McCain. The ones who are embacing him I have a question?

1. What country do you live in?
2. Have you been to the grocery stores lately?
3. Do you have car or do you use gas?
4. What about insurance?
5. Do you know of anyone who's lot theri job lost?
6. Do you know of anyone who's lost their home?

Under the Bush/McCain administration we have experience all of these horrifiying thing...and do you really believe McCain is for Change ...get me a break!

Obama was ahead in Ohio two days ago. I really do not believe these polls at all. Has something happened in the last two days? I wish CNN and all the MSM would stop playing this horse race aspect of the election, and reallly cover the issues that affect the American people. Your job is to break down, accurately, the differences for us, between the two candidates, on Iraq, foreign policy, economy, health care, taxes, education, energy, ethics, etc. Why is it you never do that????

Obama could of had a slam dunk with Clinton, but instead he went for the out side shot with Biden. May or may make it.

COURT JESTER – obama

What the polls are not saying is that they are sampling more repulicans than they did last month. They play with the numbers to make it a race. Obama will win and he will change the outlook of that red and blue map.

"chickens coming home to roost"
In Michigan and Florida... both Clinton and Obama agreed to the primary restrictions. The Republican party also penalized Florida and Michigan for holding their primaries early.

If a state decided to have election day on the day after everybody else's election day, should we coddle them because of their "right to vote", or should we tell them to play the game by the rules in place?

No Socialism!
Nobama!

WOMEN!! Please don't vote for Palin just because she's a woman. She doesn't even come close to Hillary. McCain is counting on women to vote for them because he has a woman as a running mate. He stands on stage with a sly grin while she's doing all the talking and work for him because he knows he couldn't win on his own. She will send this country back to the dark ages...anti-abortion, pro-guns, etc. That pic of her and her daughter kneeling next to a moose THAT IS STILL ALIVE (his head is lifted up) totally disgusts me! This Republican is voting for REAL CHANGE...GO OBAMA/BIDEN!

The good old boys cannot stand a new MIND in Washington. See them scurry.......its like Three Blind Mice.....and they will do all in their power to smear the new face on the scene.

Obamas folks (if he wins) will be calling in Markers, then watch the money fly out of the Govt .

We have no choice we have to put McCain in. Also the dems are looking so shabby, Obama really gets rattled doesn't he. He is in over his hear with NO Experience.

Finally, people are begging to learn more about Obama and his socialism agenda!

No way. No how. NO-bama.

Smythe,
With all due respect, that is how it is. News tend to report their own polls. CNN prefers to report its CNN polls and Fox prefers to reports its Fox polls. They only report Gallup or Rasmussen polls when they have to. It is nothing political, but rather business - if you don't report your own poll, who will?

I was born in Ohio but now I live in a state where people have enough sense to vote for the man with true CHANGE visions and that man is Obama! Either wake up or stay in bed November 4th.
2008>2016

It has now been confirmed that when Obama met with Iraqi leader he requested that any US troop withdrawals be delayed, while in the US he was requesting immediate troop withdrawals. When are the American people going to be told the truth about this sleazy guy?

Dear Ohioans,
The nation – indeed the world – will be counting on your state to get it right this time! The past eight years have brought disaster to the US economy, as well as its standing in the world. For all of his good points as a person, McCain can only offer more of the same. It's time to right the ship, and Ohio may have a lot to say about it. The clear choice this time around is Obama.

proud army and navy mom:

You are getting the idea that Obama is going to tax EVERYONE from wherE?

Surely you haven't been listening to Obama's actual speeches, or looking at his plans. He's not going to tax everyone!
He's going to lower taxes for about 95% of the PEOPLE. You need to quit taking Obama's plans from the Mccain campaign spin. The only tax Obama's going to raise, is by removing the Bush tax cut on people making over 250,000 a year. If that's you, go ahead vote Mccain, otherwise wake up and smell the coffee. Obama is for the People.(his donors), Mccain is for the same large wealthy interests as Bush.

You might call it socialist, but being for the people is called DEMOCRATIC.

Go McCain!! Beat that corrupt DNC!

Hillary Democrat/

Ignorance is a serious problem in this world! America will be toast if they elect MCBush again! Vote your conscience, avoid racism, act as patriots.

America should not fear the terrorists, but liers. Liers are more dangerous than terrorists. Terrorists attackt the nerve base of America (economy). Weak economy will make America less powerful to defent itself. Beware, liers (like McBush) have weakened America. They have acted worst than the terrorists they claimed to fight. Wake up America. Any stupidity will make America weak or go the point of no return. The people I pity most are the low/averge income people, who will suffer the consequences of bad judgement.

The news media are not helping- they feed people with rubbish news about celebrity instead of issues. Shame on anyone who participate in recking America!

May God touch the spirit of ordinary American to wake up and take their destinity into their own hands.

Florida and Texas have long had the reputation as being the most f'd states in the country. Peopel easily fooled and even more easily led.

I would never have thought about Ohio that way, but it appears that Ohioans are drinking the Kool-Aid that the republicans are serving by the gallon!

The dems should be ahead by double digits after the disastrous leadership the republicans have given us for the last 8 years. The media and the Democratic leadership foisted an inexperienced, egotistical empty suit on us and now we are looking at the possibility of 4 more years of the same bad leadership. What a shame; we had the opportunity of winning with a true mandate. All for the sake of being part a movement instead of using common sense and nominating the most qualified person. For the first time in my life I will be sitting home in November so I don’t have to be a part of what is sure to be a disastrous outcome, no matter who wins.

John McCain, we believe in you ! You ve been thru tougher things than this campaign before. After all, this is just a bunch of babblers and losers. Not real stuff. Go get 'em John !

Polls are polls, they change daily and no one knows what the final outcome will be.

I believe McCain/Palin is the ticket to ultimate change in the long run. Obama/Biden where they want to admit it or not represent the same old washingon.

Besides, what has Obama done while he's been in Congress, I'll tell you, NOTHING, he's been campaigning for President since day one, he's not voted on anything, why do you think Clinton and Biden said, he's not the man for the job.

Wake up people!

Obama can not win by himself, he is depending on the KING and QUEEN of lies. They lies to every american people, even lies to the american children.

Guess who is the liar? Who depends on the KING & Queen of lies?

All of a sudden the votes of all the states Obama spit at and poo pood are becoming important to the race.

Shows how poor Obama's judgement is – you should never ridicule, mock, jeer and demean the people whose votes you will later need to win. And you should not get nasty and vulgar and filthy with members of your own party for exercising their right to vote.

Voters do not forget easily... wait until Fl and Mi weigh in- Obama hired big fancy lawyers to block a revote there- putting himself on the WRONG side of the people's right to vote.

They are both liars! I can't believe that some of you out there thinks that one lies more than the other, because they both do it equally. It's called politics. When you get down to it, niether is bipartisan. McCain votes 90% republican, Obama 97% democrat. Get real people! Wake up! Do not vote based on who you think can get anything done, but vote on your moral core. Congress controls what reform, laws, dispositions the government will take, not the president. But the president controls the tone. Besides, we have two presidential debates, and one vp debate. Reserve your judgements until they actually speak together on the issues, then you will get a better look at who is going to be a better leader.

Funny how the "News" polls are even but the ones they trouted out when Nobama was winning (the independent ones Gallup etc) but now that the "independent" ones all show PALIN/McCain up by 3-5 points..... Don't get reported ....

LOL..

I'm not sure why the Republicans are cheering this news. McCain can't win the election without Ohio and at the peak of the Palin bounce it's tied. On the other hand Obama does have a path to victory even without Ohio. The national numbers are starting to move back toward Obama and he is still in a better position for electoral votes.

And McCain just repeated that "the fundamentals of our economy are strong" on the same morning that Lehman went belly up, Merrill was bought for pennies on the dollar and AIG and WaMu are headed for the same fate. Seriously, that's what he said!

Is he trying to lose?

Bush bought the election, he never should've won in the first place. I feel sorry for all of you disillusioned Repugs out there who actually think electing McSame would beneft this country. You all must lead sad, sad lives to think things will change with him in office.

What ppl need to realise is that they are not voting for a Beauty Paegent.... if after all what has happened over the last 8 years America elects another Republican govt then America deserves what it is going through and much more.

McCain is surging it appears all over the USA.
ABC EDITED THE GOOD FOREIGN POLICY ANSWERS OF PALIN'S INTERVIEW. And, just saw that the Bush Doctrine has four definitions and Palin was right in asking "which one Charlie"? Actually the Bush Doctrine is an invention of the Media - there is a Monroe Doctrine that is legitimate however. Journalists are becoming jerks.
Gibson interviewed Obama it was a soft and gentle interview – what's wrong w/the men are they whimps?
The tricks that never end.
I'm tired of Obama, and his cohorts and what they are pulling. We are going w/McCain now.

anyone who is not wealthy ,or nuts and votes for the McCain/Palin
smokes screen ...has been in a coma the last 8 years....

Hey all you McCain fan's how do you think we got here in the first place (The GOP), you are the same people who voted for bush, When your son's and daughters are still fighting wars, when your houses are foreclosed, when the energy crisis gets worse and when you lose your jobs and cannot afford health care, remember this is the road you choose. Its one thing to for McCain to have a better plan it's another when he has no plan other than he wants to drill, go to war and he was a war hero! I am sure that will get your job back and put food on the table and help you afford to send your kids to college?

It amazes me that people think govnerment should not be an active partner in solving our problems, especially when they create most of the problems.

Our economy is down because of who? Our bridges and highways are in need of repair because of who? The school buildings our kids go to every day are in need of repairs becasue of who?

Corporation are not going to pay to fix our road ways. Corporations are not going to pay to fix our schools. And corporations are not going to fix our health care system. Here is the big one, corporations are not going to create jobs without govnerment help. But they will take tax pay money.

I agree govnerment should not be the solution to every problem, but they should take lead in fixing the problems they created.

The choice is easy, a person who will invest in people (Sen. Obama) or a person who will invest in corporations (Sen. McCain). Corporations do have a role to play, but our govnerment must take the lead.

McCain counts on the American voter to be short-sighted and looking for easy answers to difficult issues, i.e., suicidally stupid.

Are you a voter McCain can count on?

If Obama loses this fall, it will be because racism is alive and well in America. Side by side there is no comparison. If you can't see McCain and Palin are pathological liars I pity you.

It was a golden year for the democrats, but they picked the unelectable nominee Obama, and the problem became cancer when Obama ignored Senitor Clinton. I can't stop scatching my head. TOO LATE NOW

McCain 2008 – Clinton 2012

Yeah, we need to send more money to Obama since he doesn't want to follow the system that is in place. So Obama shunned the presidential campaign fund, something that was already paid for by the American people, and is telling you to send you more of your hard earned money. Meanwhile, McCain uses the money that was already donated, something that doesn't even affect us in any way. If Obama is taking your money now, what is he going to do when he is in office? Raise more taxes and take even more of your money that you don't have!

Obama will be ok as long as the new registered voters come to the rescue. The polls do not take into consideration people who have never voted and the college students who back Obama by a large number. I know this because I am one of them! The youth has been mobilized by the reality of what's at stake in this election.

The youth in its majority knows the difference between the old and the new mentality and they will side with Obama because he represents the future, not to mention the fact that he opposed the war which has caused so many lives and has weakened our economy and our image in the world. Please vote for your children and for the future!

Go Obama!!!

HI , YOU KNOW the time is ready really ready for the real change and we have enough with the republicain this is the reason we need to put democrat in the power .

Folks in Ohio "just dont get it".If they keep voting for Republicans they will stand in bread lines,maybe then they will smell the coffee down the street.

We will not see Michelle Proud America and Hussein in the White House. God Bless America.

Read the truth coming out from other POWs. McCain is unstable.
He needs to release his medical records NOW!

Sign the petition at:the realmccain.com

Go McCain!! Beat that corrupt DNC!

Im from Columbus Ohio... I live in the liberal part of town... we just had a wind storm... most the Obama signs are gone... I just put up a brand new John Mccain sign... suck it libs...

Ohio, it's time to redeem yourself! My state was stupid enough to go to Dubya twice (not with the help of my vote – my hands are clean). Unfortunately, there are a lot of rural, "value" voters here, but hopefully the huge number of job losses that have happened here will be enough to wake up Ohians.

McCain had a hand in robbing Ohio of its jobs when he pressed hard for foreign-owned DHL to take over an American company. Now, DHL is closing the Ohio location and costing Ohio thousands of jobs. Look for more of the same if McSame is elected.

Speaking of bold-face liars, who remembers the shame Clinton brought us! What an a++.

At least McCain HAS crossed the aisles and DOES promise to include Dems in the cabinet – something BO has never even hinted at. That is the most important issue, who will get things done instead of just block each others votes? Nobama was too busy voting "present" and writing his books – WAY out of touch elitist.

to all you McCain supporters out there. I thought polls right now didn't matter?? If it was a 10 point margin for Obama, you'd say "it's only the day in November when this counts" So why the change? Because your Duh-bya lackey and his lipstick chihuahua are even? In 2000 I would not have had a problem with McCain. Now he's merely a puppet of the religious zelaots that run the GOP and the fact that he picked the smarmy, snide hockey bimbo is further testament that he is (as well as most other Repukelicans" enslaved to the bible thumpers and their minions

Fear not, fellow smart citizens and true patriots, the groundswell of youth support for Obama who don't have land-lines to partake in biased polls will make their mark come election time. The McCain campaign could only wish they could lie about the same statement. Obama will defeat McCain and the Matron Saint of Lipstick handily.

Too many paid GOP posters on this board.

Anyone who has lived in America for the past 8 years would NOT be in favor of 4 more of them.

Need a good laugh?
McCain actually has an ad that blames Barack Obama for high gas prices. Straight talk right? What a jerk McCain has become.

Obama / Biden 08!

Let the truth be told. From what I see in this election, this race is not about issues, the polls are daily convincing me that the majority of white Americans can not truthfully deal with the fact or potential of an African -American been elected as the president of the USA.

If the converse were true, the race should not even be close not to talk of MCBush leading in the new polls. It is unfortunate that people see this fact and are not willing to talk about it or confront it.

I am conservative by choice but I have found out that the Republican party is really fll of hypocrites who do not measure themselves with the same rules and morals they measure others with.

If Obama loses in November, it's okay but unfortunately, it only confirms that vast majority of Americans are not bold enough to face change that will be lead by a Non White in the the White House.

I live in Florida, and it is sad to note that some people still take pride in displaying the Confederate Flag righ close on a Major Highway
(I-75). We all know what that flag symbolizes.

I continue to pray for this country.

Obama had electability problems from the beginning but everyone was blinded by the light. Then he threw out his playbook when he picked Biden. Well, McCain found it, picked Palin and is now beating Obama at his own game.

Be afraid .. be very afraid.

These polls are crap and are scientifically skewed, they factor in an estimate of cell phone users without calling them, this type of secondary research is elementary/// HOW ABOUT A POLL ON THE PAGE THAT ASKS... HOW MANY FOR MCCAIN/PALIN AND HOW MANY FOR OBAMA/BIDEN.............

ALL POLLS TELL US IS WE SHOULDN'T USE POLLS TO PREDICT ANYTHING.........

POST THIS CNN............

I hate to tell all the Obama haters this but this is worse news for McCain since he has been LEADING Ohio for a while now. Obama currently does not need Ohio since he has flipped Iowa, New Mexico and Colorado for the moment. If Obama does somehow manage to win Ohio or Virginia then this thing is over right then.

Well, it's about time he spoke about something of substance isn't it......but wait a minute though.....isn't the economy strong and hasn't
John McCain and Co been in power the last 8 years!!!!!!!!
Come on people, you need smart, intelligent people to get this country back on track.......we don't need liars who will say anything to get your vote.
McPalin will be a REALLY REALLY bad choice for 08 if you want to put this COUNTRY FIRST!!!!!
The P.O.W. although very admirable and the THANKS BUT NO THANKS is really wearing very very thin and peope are just sick of it.
This country deserves a lot better than that, Senator Obama and Senator Biden are those two smart, intelligent people that we need.

CNN shows its bias here. RealClearPolitics.com is an unbiased poll tracking site. Averaging the 5 most recent polls, McCain has a small, but significant lead of 2.2%. That's a wider margin than either the 2000 or 2004 elections in Ohio.

Nevada is a closer race. McCain is only up by an average of 1% in an average of the 5 most recent polls in Nevada.

Glad I don't live in OH anymore. Gotten way too conservative.

100,000 women wrote emails to protest against the backward policies for women that Palin had put into place for Rape victims, for pregnant teens.

1500 Alaskan women marched in protest against Palin.

CNN, you haven't been covering Obama/Biden at all since Palin. We WANT ISSUES AND POLICY MAKING DECISIONS not news about Palin's stump speech she has been giving in every town/city/ suburb. This has been distracting Americans from the issues of which she knows nothing of.

Can you hear the sucking sound of jobs leaving America under McCain.!

McCain more of the same Bush policys. Oicked a vice pres. that knows absolutely nothing. mccain enjoys young women. where or what happened to his first wife? No mention of her leads me to believe he is a womanizer.

mccain and palin are the biggest joke in the history of american elections, I have never seen such liars and distortions of truth since thelast rovian election by dubya and lord chenader. The GOP are scared because they know the real change is coming and soon they know they are going to be out of power. Yes we the people have made up our minds we are sitting back and waiting until 11/4, then you will see like the primaries the largest number of democrats in history come out and rip power away from the GOP and give it to Obama and Biden, where the power belongs with us. Where we can help the people. Get out your check books GOP ers its payback time. The middle clas is rising up and demanding that we the people are heard. Obama/ Biden, and Clinton will be there and alot of other brilliant democrats this is our time lets take back our country...

The Palin bounce is faltering. More and more news reports are coming out about the lies she told during her convention speech and on the trail since then. Her "In what respect, Charlie?" response to the Bush Doctrine question was scarily bad. And now, word that she had the state of Alaska pay for a tanning bed for her.

Between the false image being painted by the McCain camp, the horrendous news about Merrill Lynch, Fannie Mae, etc., and the promise of hope and sound judgment from Obama; those polls will be moving in the proper direction soon enough.

There is no way that people in Michigan will vote Obama over McCain. Sure we have some blacks, but the majority is white and they will vote for McCain.

How many people were polled? How were the questions phrased? Were other third parties included if they are on the state ballot? I mean if Bob Barr and Ralph Nader were some of the choices, that could have changed the results. This will change after some of the debates.

CNN has sold out to the GOP. Nice going traitors.

to brook-

YOU MIGHT WANT TO VOTE FOR OBAMA.. WITH HIM YOU CAN GET FREE EDUCATION, WHICH YOU SO OBVIOUSLY NEED.. STARTING WITH SPELLING AND GRAMMAR 101

Check out the NY Post article on Obama trying to delay troop withdrawals from Iraq. Just shows again that the only thing that matters to him is getting elected. What joke he is.

I doubt we will see the article mentioned on CNN, ABC, NBC, MSNBC.

McCain/Palin '08

I don't believe it. In other polls Barack Obama is up 6 to 7 points. Hey if that is the case Ohio can roll around in the mud that will be left after McCain is done with you all. You have to choose America, you have to choose better a better more stable America or a failing America, Failing Government driven in by racism. Which is stronger America, racism or patriotism?

Can we sink any lower? I have a feeling that if we get four more years of the same, we'll be lower than a snakes belly.

I think it's time their was an audit of the Obama contribution books.

First off, why in August are his contributions up? Are you telling me this is because of Sarah Palin? I highly doubt it. I think it is a made up total of monies and new supporters.

The Obama camp is using psychology on all of you who support him. Don't fall for it.

I listened to their conference call which CNN made available and I can tell you that was the most MADE UP conversation I have ever heard.

You are not telling me that there are millions of small contributors for Obama who make up this new amount for August. I believe these contributions are coming from big corporations, which are then being broken down into separate employee contributions.

Do you think we were all born yesterday??? Come on people..open your eyes.

And a new Sienna Reserach poll of NY state shows Obama ahead by only 5 points – down from an 18 point lead in their last survey.

If McCain is within 5 points of Obama in the Democratic state of NY – Obama is in BIG trouble.

NY has voted for the democratic nominee in every presidential election since 1988.

That's what Obama gets for not picking NY's favorite daughter Hillary for VP.

Ohio please note that we do not need 8 more years of George W. Bush...that is what you will get if you vote for McSame and McSoccerMom

No Way No How No McSame/McSoccerMom !!!!!!They are Crazy

Obama/Biden 08

Ohio again!! The world thanks you!
(At least the Russians and the Chinese!!!! They are laughing theyr buts of)

Go McCain, tell them how the economy is fundamentaly sound and is better off than it was 8 years ago. Tell them, or are you admitting that your judgement is WAY OFF.

Obama/Biden 08!!!

For those who thought Whoopi question to Mccain was out of line:

Her question was not out of line because Mccain voted against renewing the voter's acts bill!! People you need to educate yourself before you speak. This bill give minorities and women of all colors the right to vote!! Do some homework. That's why she made the comment are you going to send me back to slavery!! And for all you women who is voting for Mccain, you are either brainwashed or ignorant!! Mccain have voted against all women rights and choices!!

Remember in 2004 when no one thought Bush could win. I'm a republican and thought that. Well the tide is turning this year too. McCain will turn this into a win. I think McCain picking Palin put light on to Obama's inexperience. I also think all the liberal fringe groups that went after Palin and turned violent in Minnesota, turned Americans off. Americans don't see themselves belonging to these groups.

How anyone can drive around northeast Ohio or the Akron/Canton area and see all the closed businesses and factories and still think Republicans are good for the economy is beyond me. Under this administration Cleveland, Oh went from a proud, hardworking, blue collar town to the POOREST in America. To all you people who are too stupid to read, or do ANY research on the candidates and you then go vote for McCain, WHEN the economy gets worse, and you lose your homes, don't come crying to us. Also, Sen. Obama has pledged to CUT TAXES FOR 95 % OF ALL AMERICANS. So unless you make 250000+ per year you WILL GET A TAX CUT UNDER OBAMA. Under McCain, you will see a TAX INCREASE because he wants to TAX your already less than stellar medical benefits you pay for. WAKE UP PEOPLE, THIS ELECTION IS TO IMPORTANT TO BE DISTRACTED BY LIES AND REPUBLICAN FEARMONGERING.

Not a problem, it's NOT the polls that matters it's the electoral votes. So this is where the TRUE battle begins, right now Sen. Obama has the lead by 10+

Let's start the party....party like it's 1929! Too late people, should have, could have, it's just the start. What's to reform??? Free markets??

It's funny that there are so many comments viewing a dead heat in Ohio as a win for John McCain. McCain was up in the state by as much as 5 pts as little as a week ago, the state is moving back toward Barack Obama after the RNC bounce and Palin mania subside.

McCain has lost his integrity in trying to win this election.

How can anyone want 4 more years of this? Now India wants 500,000 visas for thier people to come to America so the can have AMERICANS removed from their jobs because they will accept 30% less pay and almost no benefits!!!! And the current administration is doing NOTHING!!!! This is outsourcing RIGHT INSIDE THE USA!!! This does bring out the redneck in me in regards to taking care of AMERICANS FIRST especially inside our own borders. If this is allowed to happen then it can never be said that BUSH/ MCSAME give a rats ### about the people that elected them.

Sarah Palin is a caribou with lipstick......in the headlights!!!!

Come on Ohio, you scrwed this up the last time and left the country in the capable hands of GW Bush. Are you really better off now then you were 8 years ago? Do you really think yet another Bushie type in the white house is going to change things for you? Wake up Ohio!!!

That's fine by me. I live in Cali and we have issues, but Ohio and all those middle America swing states are the main ones who will suffer during a McCain/Palin administration. Personally, I pray for the whole country, but I feel no pain for those who are suffering with job loss and no health care and can't afford gas or groceries in those areas, because THEY are the idiots who voted in Bush again. And if they decide to vote for McCain I will be laughing at them for the next four years too. We can all do better, but if they'd rather get worse than have a Black man in office, I wish them luck in being first in line at the shelters. LOL

The image of Obama and McCain featured in this story is very telling. Notice Obama having to hold McCain up so he doesn't topple over.

McCain leads in Ohio? Seriously...Ohio has lost more manufacturing jobs, under the current administration than any other state, under the current administration. Are those people that loyal that they would sacrifice the financial stability of their families for the Republican party?

Do not put much stock in polls, especially this early.
I have faith the American people have enough intelligence
to not support the further destruction of our country.
The republican party has nothing to run on but lies
distortions, attacks, swiftboating.
Accomplishments, they have none.
Policies, the policies they have supported have put
our country in the worse shape it has ever been
in.
Record, criminal.
Our survival depends on this election.
ENOUGH!!

If I said it once, I've said it a million times. Polls are not accurate. They do not account for the 4 million new registered voters that Sen. Obama has brought to the table.

Now in unison, let's say LANDSLIDE!!!!

OBAMA/BIDEN 08

Geee, every poll I have seen for Ohio has Obama ahead 3-5%..where the heck does CNN get its stuff?????????????????

Ohio deserves to lose if McCain is elected to office, all the jobs here will go overseas. Ohio will have no one to blame for its high job loss if McCain wins this. You racist people put a clothes pin on your nose and vote for the right person.

CNN – Are you afraid of Sarah Palin? Ever since she appeared, you have nothing – NADA – (remember that) to say about the Obama/Biden ticket. For days you forgot that Joe Biden was even part of the race. We have heard everything we need to know about Sarah Palin to realize she is not ready to help lead (or lead) our nation. Maybe some people care more about pigs and lipstick but I think I speak for others when I say we want to hear about the issues. I wonder if we will see coverage of Obama's speech and Joe Biden's "Bush 44" speech. Oh, we may see one or two lines, but I bet Sarah Palin's repeat of the same words she has said for more than 2 weeks will be all over the nightly news. Why don't I expect to see my comments priinted. You have yet to print anything I write. For the record, CNN is not the only station to over-do the Palin coverage. I just heard that Fox News is
airing a two-part documentary on Todd Palin. I hope they remember to ask about his involvement in troopergate.

the repugs are posting under different names including my own. If there is a post supporting mcliar and that insipid inept Palin, it's not from me.

Finally the American people are waking up to how truly disgusting the repugs are. They are all liars

I think the constant negative put downs of other Americans and the vitriolic attacks from the so-called Obama supporters are losing him this race.

The democrats used to be the champions of civil rights, women's rights, acceptance, tolerance, inclusion. They chmpioned equality and freedom. Now they rig elections, strong-arm at caucus, threaten and bully people into voting their way.

They gut and tear at candidates of their OWN party- great leaders and warriors for the people- JUST look at what happened to Hillary Clinton.

Now the democrats call everyone idiots, racists, and morons JUST for having a different point of view. They denigrate, deride and demean women and the elderly. They do nothing but spew insults and vitriol.

And look at what is happening to Obama. Those tactics of division and intimidation are backfiring. You can't demoralize and debase people into voting your way.

Treason is the violation of allegiance toward one’s country or sovereign, especially the betrayal of one’s country by waging war against it or by consciously and purposely acting to aid its enemies.

McCain = same...time for a new direction.

Bush, I see in the news today your administration is ending on a high note. How many people have you helped put out of work??? Well, I guess we can always look toward the WAR as an employment opportunity even w/o WMDs being found.

Worst Ever

Worst Ever

Worst Ever

America, don't make Bush 2nd Worst ever.....

Vote Obama ! ! ! !

Kerry states + IA + NM + CO = Obama wins. Obama is currently ahead in all of these states.

McCain can have Ohio.

Well Well Well..You Obamma supporters are starting to panic! The GOP will win and we will this country will get back on track after 2 horriable years of the democratics controling congress, being the odstructionist to the positive programs of the Republicans! GO GOP BEAT OBAMMA!!!!!!!!!!

Sue, NY...who checks fact check? The Demos? Certainly no one who cares about the truth!

Yap, there you go again CNN! you are making persuading uninformed Americans to make the wrong choice. We understand the dramma helps your bottom line, but you must undertsnad that this greed is not making America a better place. Shame on you.

Vote Obama-Biden 08

Undecided, you are simply spreading lies. Nice try tho. The "socialism" buzz word does tend to upset the segment of the population that still wears a mullet.

BoA, Lehman, WaMu... can we say the economy is in a recession now? And who put us there? McCain is trying to tout that he's the "change" agent? Here's what's the most frightening thing. Bush has pulled $500B + out of our economy with his tax break for the rich and the Iraq War. What our economy needs now is an FDR-like series of programs designed to update our infrastructure and create jobs. Who's going to propose that? McSame? It IS the Economy Stupid! Which candidate said he doesn't really understand the economy and which candidate surrounded himself with the best and brightest including Warren Buffet? If you don't understand that voting for McCain and his unprecedentedly unready VP candidate will result in continued support for the top 10% of this country to rake more money from the taxpayers of this country, then you deserve everything you get!

WOW, McCain thinks the Economy is OK!!!! Anymore questions???

OBAMA/BIDEN 2009!!!!

Sorry but we fell for 8 years. No more Bush style politics.

john mccain says 3million $ was spent for dna on crabs in montana and he will stop it when he is president. how about 4million$ that was spent in alaska on fishes by palin double talk

We are easily fooled. We got fooled twice the past two elections. McCain will be more of the same.......maybe we have to be shown our mistakes. Bring it on, we deserve it!

These polls are so fluid right now. If anyone remembers the Democratic Primary in New Hampshire, they had Obama winning by double digits. But it was Clinton winning by double digits. This year, the polls have shown how error laden they really are (don’t forget the exit polling in Florida in 2000), and the pundits are shocked when it happens. It is not a statistical anomaly when the data being used is flawed.

A dead heat for Obama is AMAZING news, this is a state McCain NEEDS to win, as he cannot get enough electoral votes without it. Hard to see how McCain is not worried stiff about this, especially with Obama closing the gap in the daily trackers. Wonderful news!

Obama '08!!!

Is Senator John McCain straight ourt lying?

Palin's Project List Totals $453 Million Last week, Republican presidential candidate Sen. John McCain said his running mate, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, hadn't sought earmarks or special-interest spending from Congress, presenting her as a fiscal conservative. But state records show Gov. Palin has asked U.S. taxpayers to fund $453 million in specific Alaska projects over the past two years.

Cecil,

We all remember what happened when we had elected another bold face liar as president 8 years ago. I, for one, will never vote for the 3rd bush term...... Wake up America, it's a matter of our lives....

Cecil,
It's just a poll, first of all. Not some conspiracy.

I don't agree with McCain's politics. But Obama is an unabashed socialist who thinks government can fix our problems. I voted Obama in the primary, but have since read "The Audacity of Hope". The man is much farther left than his campaign lets on. He wants government programs to fix every thing and "a socially justified redistribution of wealth that would bring hope to many who seemingly have none."

Socialism does not equal hope. Just read his book.

Then again...McCain isn't much better.

Obama is finally coming out and hitting McLiar hard. Obama's latest ad called 'Honor' is the harshest yet.

McCain has stepped over the line with his vile, dishonest ads and I am glad to see him being called out for it.

Obama / Biden '08

Michigan will fall in line with Ohio, economy there is much worst than most can imagine! It is result of having a LIB governor, see MI, OH, CA, that is where economy will head under LIB Obama!

I just watched McCain at his rally in Florida. As he was speaking the stock market is falling again and he is telling us that the economy is still strong. Is this man complelely out of the loop or is this just one more lie from him?

Senator Obama will win Ohio.

The polls are not accurate. Americans will not fall for the scam they fell for in 2004. Grandpa and Dumbo will not prevail.

OBAMA WILL BE PRESIDENT IN 2009!!!!!!!

OBAMA MAMA!!

wow the eduction level of mcain supporters is quite relevant here, you folks are sad, obama will win, mcant is the most disingenuous candidate ive ever seen, he is a joke, but not as funny as the crazy cooky hockey mommy from alaska, now there is a prime example of mcains lack of concern for this country, she wasnt even on the list of 10, she was choosen at the last second, so he could swing idiototic voters his way, shes not qualified, and frankly she an embaressment to most, her views are so pathetic, on womens rights,religion ect..
what a joke, anyway just be happy nay sayers cause in a few years from now youll be very pleased with the way obama has turned this country around
obama our next president,... thank god

Elections have a great way of splitting up the country. I'm either going to be REALLY excited or REALLY sad. But at least I'll know I did my part by voting. Please, people, vote on the issues and not the personalities. The SNL skit with Tina Fey was HILARIOUS!!! The reason why VP selections are so important this year is because the Republican VP could very well be a heartbeat away from being the POTUS, and THAT is scary. I've read many commenters say that after watching Sarah Palin's ABC interview that they realized she is way over her head–a "likeable" candidate but not someone they can entrust with the VP spot. So true. (Though I personally don't think Sarah Palin is likeable. I don't like blatant liars! I'm no fool.)

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me third time, ...?

After all the bad economy new from Wall Street this morning anyone who's even considering putting McBush in the White House had to be a MORON. All that had and is happening now happened with the current MORON in the White House. Corrupted IDIOT. McWar even said himself he KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT THE ECONOMY. NOW THAT STRAIGHT TALK. AND FOR ONCE HE TOLD THE TRUTH.

Americans showed how DUMB they were by electing BUSH twice when the record showed he DISTROYED EVER COMPANY HE EVER RAN INTO THE GROUND. And now the same FOOLS want to give McSurge the chance to FINISH THE JOB BUSH started.

IT'S NOT THE TERRORIST THAT GOING TO BRING DOWN AMERICA ECONOMY. IT'S THE LYING REPUBLICAN

Ohio residents should review the last 8 years of the Republicans in office and decide it they want more of the same. War of choice in Iraq with no end in sight, national debt out of sight. Exporting good-paying jobs over seas, failure to recognize global warming, objecting to stem-cell research with all the great possibilities it holds, tax breaks to the most wealthy Americans, deciding the country's energy policy in secret plus so much more that they are too numerous to mention. It was to the point that I no longer believed anything that George Bush had to say and McCane voted with Bush 90% of the time. Now McCane, supposed to be the "The Straight Talk Express" is using lies, even recognized by the lie king-maker, Carl Rove, as just too much over the top. If this is your idea of government, vote for McCane. However, f you want well-educated, intelligent people running this country – vote for Obama. Obama is a man of principal, a clear-thinker with a vision and the ability to carry it through to repair the immense damage done by the Republicans. I see John McCane as the past and Barack Obama as the future.

A Southern Senior Lady – Independent Voter

Sarah Palin could sacrifice Bambi on the steps of the Supreme Court under a full moon at midnight while dancing to the music of Santana.....

I'd still vote for McCain/Palin before I'd vote for the socialist bigot named Obama.

Barack Obama will lower taxes for 95% of Americans. No longer will the oil companies and other corporations control Washington. Are you better off than you were seven years ago? Does the news of Wall Street scare you today? It scares me. John McCain will continue the Bush policies of the last seven years, and it won't get any better. John McCain will continue to do the same Bush things over and over again and expect different results. Barack Obama has been the change candidate from the start. Don't let McCain's all-of-a-sudden message of "change" fool you. He has sunk to such a low level and is no longer worthy of the respect he once had. McCain puts himself first before his country every day. Finally, my only child, a son, will be 17 in a couple of years. I don't want war monger in the White House who agrees that re-instituting the draft is a good idea. He can't have him.

> Once again-EXCELLENT NEWS!!!-Bye Bye BO-people are finally
> waking up and realizing that BO just doesn't cut it!!!

Boy you just don't get it do you? Look at the electoral map: Obama can loose Ohio and still win the election. McCain absolutely HAS to win Ohio to have any shot. You are right though, it is good news considering that McCain was up by 6-9 points in Ohio just a few weeks ago.

*
CNN... your POLL is NOT scientific..! Your poll is a congloboration of a variety of polls. It has no value, bearings or credibility..

Post this CNN..
*

Look at the website: The Real John McCain Less Jobs More Wars
There are several videos of him that will give you a good picture of why the ladies on The View knew it was important to ask these questions. There is also an online petition being forwarded to people on the internet with many doctors names on it requesting that John McCain release his medical records without the doctors or news people being restricted to a time limit like last time. He is on about six medications and the melanoma, unfortunately, is a very serious condition that can come back on internal organs without any evidence until it's too late. There are many issues that are important to consider before voting this man into office and that includes his mental clarity and tendency to distort the truth.

Yeah right and McCain is going to make the economy better lol. This is so sad People Wake UP!

Palin is energizing the GOP ticket, how wonderful for you all, I see some early celebrating. Now who is the head of the ticket, I forget his name. GO PALIN!!!!! PALIN is hot McCain is not, what a Joke he has become!!!

Ohio will go red and so will Pennsylvania. We're bitter Americans remember?

MCCAIN/PALIN 2008!!!!!

Even my family who are arch Dems and most voting for Obama have conceded that he's not going to win.

The American people got a wake up call and reality check over the weekend and this morning. The Economy. Those Wall Street firms failed by abusing their investor's money. The abuse was made possible by proponents of small government, who deregulated how they are allowed to do business.

There's nothing wrong with small government. The debate in this country is over how much is really needed. When does regulation reach the point of diminishing returns, is the debate. It would seem one point of view is more inaccurate than the other.

Don't believe the hype. Americans aren't dumb enough to re-elect McBush. If he does by shear luck win. I don't want to hear a word about gas prices and unsubstantiated wars.

By the way, have fun signing your kids up for the upcoming draft.

Obama08

September 25: That's the date Ohioans can register and vote at the same time. Get ready for a flood of university students voting for Obama that week. That's 400,000+ plus voters, who side with Obama 5 to 1.

We will take no lectures from John McCain, Cindy McCain Or There Supporters who are cynically running the sleaziest and least honorable campaign in modern Presidential campaign history. His discredited ads with disgusting lies are running all over the country today. He runs a campaign not worthy of the office he is seeking."

America, Do We Really Want A Bold Face Liar As President?

Wake Up America, And Start Reading And Stop Looking For Sound Bits Only!

Your polls are underestimating the black vote and the hispanic vote which is enough to put obama on top in November. I just don't understand how you've interviewed one thousand people out of three hundred million and say McCain is ahead in popular vote. This is nothing but tricks to sway voters and play on their mind.

Go Barack....we have your back!

Middle america is scared of radical change, a black man in power is radical change, so 4 more years of Bush policies and a pit bull with lipstick vice president is not so bad after all.

Way to go Ohio.....Lets press ahead we need McCain to turn this country around. Obama will not create jobs with his plan to tax the life out of companies and workers.

I am not sure why Obama thinks taxing everything and everyone is good for the economy.

I see BO sent the Hill-dog in yesterday to do some damage control. Two problems with that. He and the party and the pundits spent the last year telling us what liars she and Bill are, and every time she calls for BO's election, we all know she has her fingers crossed. Too bad you blew it., Barry.

Wake up America...... McCain/Palin is WORSE than Bush. McCain is running a "Karl Rove style campain" and Palin is trying to BLOCK subpoenas.... McCain thinks WOMEN are STUPID... he believed, if he put a women (he met ONCE) on his ticket... women would vote for him.... SHOW him you are NOT stupid.

Palin is castrating McCain and making herself the laughing stock of America. Voters are finding out McCain is a liar and Palin is confortable lying to voters too. Voters will vote Obama/Biden in the end. THE REPUBLICANS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FINANCIAL COLLAPSE. vote DEMOCRAT..

How much of a recession does there need to be, for people to want to change the Bush policies and tax system. Sure when your in a whole lets dig deeper, boy sometime's I think half of Ohio deserve's what they get with Mccain, I just feel sorry for the other half.

I'm listenig to McCain right now in Fla. and he is continuing to lie...he's been called on this by factcheck...as well as others and he continues to lie....Please do not put in office a LIER!

He thinks that if he keeps repeating the same lies...that people will believe him even if every news outlet says different...even the sleaze bag of Karl Rove says he's not being truthful...

Not to say "I told you so", but Hillary would have had no problem winning Ohio, and would have been able to spend her time and resources in other more critical states. Obama looks more and more like he is going to blow it.

PLEASE Ohio, recognize the truth from all the lies!!! Senator McCain is NO reformer. He isn't the person he once was. We supported him in 2000. He has fallen fast and far. He has flip-flopped on every major reform he once proposed of the last decade. He has lied about being bipartisan. Senator Obama has worked successfully across the aisle between partisan much more. He can make the changes need in Washington with Biden's help and ours! He will make government more transparent, as he already has. Don't be deceived – Palin was never vetted and like Agnew ('73) will have all kinds of investigations and end up resigning in office. She not ready. We can't afford all these distractions. Let's get our country back on track to be the leader we've been blessed to be. You will know a person by the fruit they bear!

How much longer will allow these uninformed voters control the mess that they have helped to make of this country ????

Mc Cain / Palin will win!!!!!! The predominate voter will wake up throughout this country finally.
Obama is way out of his league.
DEMS made a big mistake by not picking Hillary.

Now it over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK Ohio, lets not screw this up again.

Wow, people are actually seeing through the farce of mccain/palin ticket who are proven pathological liars.

If Obama wins Ohio it's over. Period. He can win many different ways without Florida or Ohio, but if he wins either one he's won the race.

People – pay attention. This race shouldn't even be close. Look at why you're voting for McCain. Are you excited about embracing the Bush policies? Or are you just voting against Sen. Obama? Do you really want a hockey mom with a short, scandal-filled tenure thousands of miles from the mainland a heartbeat away from the Oval Office.

Use your heads. Reject bigotry, corruption and dirty politics as usual. Embrace change and save our nation from certain ruin.

Obama-Biden '08

As an Ohioan, sorry to tell Obama supporters that I don't have great confidence of my fellow stately brethren.

We'll see.

As the problems continue to build with the economy, I hope people use their brains, a little more than there heart, and vote for the man who championed for change over the last 3 years, and the VP who has been in DC long enough to see it happen without risk. I still like Biden, and don’t get to see enough of him.

Queen Sarah!!

Palin for Queen!!

When job lost is such an important issue , I can't believe John Mccain is ahead . Are people really voting on issue or they finally agree with the McCain campaign that it's not about issue?
OH lala .

McCain is Hot!

Obama is NOT!

McCain/Palin-08-In a Landslide victory for all Americans!

Once again-EXCELLENT NEWS!!!-Bye Bye BO-people are finally waking up and realizing that BO just doesn't cut it!!!

NO WAY NO HOW NOBAMA!!!!!

and bots-you can no longer say-smolls polls-BO is off message and the voting public sees this novice can't handle attacks-

DNC....Buyers remorse????

Great work America! Once again, no one matters but the white trash from Ohio.

How can the polls be tied in Ohio when the only thing McCain/Palin did last week was tell lies?

GO GET'M JOHN MCCAIN.

It looks as if Ohio, Florida, Virgina and possibly Missouri will decide the election. It will be interesting to see if the people in those states who are suffering stick with what got them there or will they step out and go a different direction.
VOTE OBAMA FOR CHANGE!

I believe Obama is really ahead because the pollsters use landlines for their surveys but we need to perservere and send money to Obama to wage a proper ad campaign.

I am disappointed that McCain is letting the lying continue. He is not the person I thought he was and will not get out of this campaign with his reputation intact.

Obama is finally starting to answer the smears...too bad as he wanted to run a clean campaign.

Palin: you're not qualified...get out of the race while you can!

In Popular vs. Electoral votes , Obama is still in the lead. Also, polls don't include cell phone users or the tens of millions of new voter registrants and people that did not vote in the 2004 election. The polls are murky at best.

Wow, CNN you had a CNN Special: Barack Obama Revealed and you interviewed Barack Obama. You had John McCain Revealed and you interviewed John McCain. You had Joe Biden Revealed and you interviewed Joe Biden. You had Sarah Palin Revealed and you interviewed her family and friends!!! Really CNN???

How much is the media going to let this lady get away with???
