		<description>Sticking with the issues and not going negative has been the key to Senator Obama&#039;s success. The majority of voters appreciate a candidate who talks about our issues instead of using each and every opportunity to bash the other candidate. Our economy has never in my lifetime been this bad and so the last thing I need to hear from ANY candidate is negative attacks about the other.</description>

		<description>This is outrageous how could anybody in their right minds say some of the most ridiculous things about Senator Obama.  It just doesn&#039;t make any sense.  If you don&#039;t want to vote for him then don&#039;t.  We live in America but stop telling lies.  We all know people and some have them in their own family who have done things when they were younger and regret it to this day.  God is the only judge that matters not man nor woman.  We are so quick to think the worst.  You explain to me how Obama is guilty of being terrorist because he lives in the same neighborhood as an American terroist.  We have terroist right in this country.  Do anybody remeber Timothy McVeigh?  What he done was just as bad.  So all the people that knew him including his school teachers are terroists.  Some of you make me so sick.</description>

To — Kelby from Houston, TX

Very interesting Kelby, because most liberals I know are very narrow minded people with a one track mind. And when you nail them with the facts, they tend to blow up. The liberals that I know always want something for nothing and are always looking for someone to blame for their misfortune. And these people are far from generous, they are about as tight as anyone I have ever seen. Kind of like Biden, who gave less that $1000 to charity last year and Obama who won&#039;t even support his brother that lives in poverty. And as far as distributing the wealth more evenly, that is SOCIALISM which is one step away from COMMUNISM and it is made to money away form hard working people and give it to the lazy. If that is what you like, then move to China or Cuba.

As for me thanks but no thanks.

Sean Hannity...is that you?  This is just a vomit of all the mainstream rightie talking points.  do you even have a clue how uniformed and ridiculous you appear parrotting this nonsense.  There really is one born every minute - you&#039;re living proof.  Oooo, you even got the John McCain anger down pat too!  Nice job stoolie</description>

		<description>We are really some ignorant people, aren&#039;t we?  The age of fear is over for the Republicans.  The sad thing is some of you call yourselves Christians!!!  That is what baffles me.  Speaking as a Christian, myself, I thought we were to show love.  That is far from what we have shown as a people of faith and as a country.  I&#039;ll be glad when this election is all over.</description>

		<description>These are typically right leaning - I don&#039;t pay attention because truth and accuracy are not even serious considerations.

Just more rabid irrational attempts from the right.  No thanks, I&#039;ve stopped paying attention to that kind of nonsense.</description>

		<description>i think its shameful the way Obama and his party fools in the media are playing up and creating this panic in the markets just to get him elected. any one how isn&#039;t a young and dumb democrats knows that this slide isn&#039;t near as bad (percentage wise) as others we&#039;ve had in the past. in those cases we didn&#039;t need to throw the baby (free markets) out with the bath water like we have now and use this as an excuse to impose more restrictions on personal freedom. you thought the patriot act was bad wait till the government starts using imposed economic restrictions to control what we can eat how much gas we can buy and where we can move to.</description>

		<description>I would like to know why Obama does not have to give the GOP all the books as to where he gets his funding for the campaign? tERRORIST INVOLVED? Go ahead and vote for Obama, but when you get tired of the terrorism and you make no mistake there will be with his presidency, since he is around about way involved one way or another with terrorist. He will not pledge to HIS flag, HE will not salute the military, his wife stated that &quot;This is the first time she was ever proud of her country&quot;!, He WAS involved in the Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae problems,(that will come out with these hearings and already did on CSPAN today). When you get tired of the Government telling you when and where to wipe. (Socialism) You will wish that you had not have fallen for his HOLLYWOOD tactics. And I predict that before 1 year into his term each and every one of you that voted for BARACK HUSSAIN OBAMA  will regret your decision. This Country is headed each and every day closer to SOCIALISM. I dont know about you but I have had 55 years of freedom and dont intend to live without my FREEDOM.</description>

		<description>undecided---

Don&#039;t know which liberals you know but the ones I know are highly educated people who give back to their community and who work hard at their job to make the community better for everyone, not just those who are happy to take from the system and complain about having to put their fair share in.

And enough with the socialism tripe. That is right wing code for &quot;why can&#039;t our capitalists rape the system and get rich at the same time?&quot;
Obama&#039;s plans are a small change in order to get this country moving forward. Have you been paying attention to what is going on in this country? Our infrastructure is crumbling. Our schools are falling apart. The environment is going downhill again after years of improvement. Taking care of all of these problems takes money. That is why we have taxes. You should not get a free ride if you live in this country (and it is time to make sure that everyone pitches in).

Rob---

Is there any point since you have made your mind up? Have you been paying attention? Do you go to websites and look for information?
I do and I made a decision to support Obama.

I am not concerned about George Soros. I am concerned about the Palin supporters shouting racial epitephs at black members of a news crew.</description>

		<description>Undecided from 3:41, Senator McCain has enjoyed the spoils of Socialism by way of Social Security.  With his (wife&#039;s) wealth, you&#039;d think he would&#039;ve taken a principles stand and sent the money back.

Rick from 3:22, know the facts.  Hagel, whose wife endorsed Obama today, wrote the Fannie Mae bill in January 2005 and it was co-sponsored by Sununu and Dole.
McCain got on board 16 months later (May 2006).  But here&#039;s the kicker - it was the REPUBLICANS who controlled the Senate and therefore let the bill die.  It wasn&#039;t the Dems.  Sorry about that.

I wish the ads (which seems more for Team Obama than Team McCain) would just tell the truth with no spin, no nuance, no lies.  But, I in that case, live in a fairytale world.
Rock the vote people!!</description>

America look around you...she is definitely not the answer. Tainopower -- people like you would support McCain and Palin.

		<description>The MSM continually running the inaccurate, hate filled speeches is a dangerous course to take. You give credence to lies and smears that you have fact checked as FALSE. You overlook the checkered history of the woman making them. There is a difference between freedom of speech and slander, libel and inciting hatred.

Your continual hand wringing about the ugliness of this campaign should give you pause to look in the mirror and see the contributors to this course of events. Time to put country before ratings and get a backbone!

If anything should happen to Senator Obama, his family or supporters you will be culpible. Your complete SILENCE on the heckling, ugliness and threats being shouted out is reprehensible.</description>

		<description>To all you undecideds….

Over the weekend, John McCain&#039;s top adviser announced their plan to stop engaging in a debate over the economy and &quot;turn the page&quot; to more direct, personal attacks on Barack Obama. 

In the middle of the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression, they want to change the subject from the central question of this election. Perhaps because the policies McCain supported these past eight years and wants to continue are pretty hard to defend. 

But it&#039;s not just McCain&#039;s role in the current crisis that they&#039;re avoiding. The backward economic philosophy and culture of corruption that helped create the current crisis are looking more and more like the other major financial crisis of our time. 

During the savings and loan crisis of the late &#039;80s and early &#039;90s, McCain&#039;s political favors and aggressive support for deregulation put him at the center of the fall of Lincoln Savings and Loan, one of the largest in the country. More than 23,000 investors lost their savings. Overall, the savings and loan crisis required the federal government to bail out the savings of hundreds of thousands of families and ultimately cost American taxpayers $124 billion. 

Sound familiar?

		<description>Undecided, there are not greater fools on earth than conservatives who uses that name to hide their racist attitudes.  I am a democrat who can comprehend a lie when one is told.  I did my research and found that everything McCain has thrown out about Obama, there were something worse about him.  Obama is being blamed for  what other people did or said.  McCain is being called out on things he have been involved in, example (Keating five).  
According to the CNN fact checker, McCain is lying about things that matters most to the American people.  

People like Sean Hannity and other members of Fox News does not report any thing negative about McCain.  If Kate Couric did not interview Palin, we would have never known how big of mistake McCain made in selecting his VP.  If Obama had been asked questions that simple and did not know the answer, it would have been headline news on every station.</description>

<p>People like Sean Hannity and other members of Fox News does not report any thing negative about McCain.  If Kate Couric did not interview Palin, we would have never known how big of mistake McCain made in selecting his VP.  If Obama had been asked questions that simple and did not know the answer, it would have been headline news on every station.</p>

		<description>Very interesting Kelby, because most liberals I know are very narrow minded people with a one track mind. And when you nail them with the facts, they tend to blow up. The liberals that I know always want something for nothing and are always looking for someone to blame for their misfortune. And these people are far from generous, they are about as tight as anyone I have ever seen. Kind of like Biden, who gave less that $1000 to charity last year and Obama who won&#039;t even support his brother that lives in poverty. And as far as distributing the wealth more evenly, that is SOCIALISM which is one step away from COMMUNISM and it is made to money away form hard working people and give it to the lazy. If that is what you like, then move to China or Cuba.

As for me thanks but no thanks.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
stop lying. You buy everything you see on the media?   I am from Kenya and that brother is not even related to obama. That story was made up.  
To be sure, check when Obama&#039;s dad died &#039;82
The guy who was featured is only 19.  

Please write what you know for sure!</description>

		<description>A black member of the press was attacked by supporters at a Palin rally today. Supporters cheered when someone called Obama a terrorist and again when a UNIFORMED sheriff (a no-no, I think, at a political rally), emphasized Obama&#039;s middle name as if to infer that he is less than American or a scary Muslim terrorist or whatever. These items should be a top story. It is the HATE base of the Republican party that McCain/Palin are reaching out to...sad.</description>

		<description>Obama really care about our troops in Iraq and afganistan but his hands may be tied as he is not yet in a position to give a direct order...Please elect this man so that he will be able to do what is right for our troops.
Barack will not mock a Bible because he is a born-again Christian, devoted and spirit filled. Yoy guys better rally round BO and get him to The White House.</description>

		<description>It’s UnConstitutional

 
As election time rolls around, lets get to the heart of the situation. It’s not about who cavorts with whom or who’s more qualified - it’s really about who understands our Constitution.

When our ancestors fled Europe to escape oppression from horrible dictatorial regimes, they drafted something different for the future of the Americas. Freedom and no oppression. Because of the current state of economic affairs in this country, it’s citizens are experiencing oppression. Our lawmakers, the people who we’ve entrusted with the care of our land, really need to stop thinking about themselves and focus on what’s best for America. 

So for this election - and all future elections - from President to Dog Catcher, the candidate who gets the job should be the one who not only takes the Constitution seriously but actually understands it and does everything in his or her power to make sure our homeland remains free from the oppression that would be caused by it’s leaders.</description>

		<description>patriotism-the love and devotion to one&#039;s country  I don&#039;t  think any of the candaites president or vp don&#039;t love their country. You can say what you want about Obama he loves his country and wants to make it a better place. 

Pailn/McCain don&#039;t lift my spirits, hopes, dreams or anything they just make me angry. I wish Pailn/McCain would stop acting like they are the only two who are patriotic. 

And Bill Ayers I feel sorry for you, what ever choice you made in your past this judgemental society is never ever going to let you live it down, you weren&#039;t even charged, and who didn&#039;t like USA going to war many people felt the same way. I think its so sad they would tear this man and his wife down like there doing. Pailn you ought to be ashamed of yourself, your not perfect you have made terrible choices, and from the looks your paying for it, look at your family. You were having demons cast out of you. ANd you want to bring up this mans past and call him a terrioist? He is still alive working, and trying to make a living, I feel bad for him. I hate what you the republican party do to destoy peoples lives, tobring fear into the minds of the voters, but you know ever DOG has there day. And even if you cheat and win, you won&#039;t win the respect of the American people they will hate you an there will be so much more turmoil if McCain/Pailn get in office.

Republicans you have too much hate in you!!</description>

		<description>The Las Vegas ACORN office has been raided by Federal Agents on suspicion of voter fraud.

This is an organization that Obama worked closely with and represented as a lawyer while he was a community organizer in Chicago.  This is the organization that the Democrats tried to get 20 billion dollars funneled to in the bailout package before House Republicans put a stop to it.  This organizaton has a vast history of voter fraud.  It also was a major player in getting banks to give risky home mortgages to low income people.  Using intimidation as a frequent tatic.  This is an organization that Obama has an extensive history with.

Where is the CNN reporting on this raid.  This is major election news.</description>

		<description>I like this from an earlier blog:

&quot;You know, you McCain supporters who disrespect the American legacy by shouting, fear mongering, and lying are only trying to run the same ole tactics from decades ago. 

If you haven&#039;t noticed, America is not listening to you this time. We&#039;ve been lead down this road before. It is evident in the polls, that no one is listening to you. 

Please try getting NEW and POSITIVE ideas to make the case that your man or your party deserves to be in power. How about trying to recruit young people, diverse people, forward thinking people before your party becomes extinct!&quot;</description>

		<description>There seems to be a group of people that just can&#039;t see past their nose.  McCain speaks and it is GOSPEL.  

Palin has never really answered any question asked of her.  The questions during the CBS interview were not hard but they sure caused her to stumble.

Tonight we shall see who is the statesman.  Tonight we will see who has a plan and talks about the REAL ISSUES and who is only able to attack the ideas of others.

This constant attack mode shows that McCain is not able to bring biparticain cooperation because he will not listen to others.  But when things go bad he always finds someone else to BLAME.</description>
