My sister went to the Ohio McCain-Palin rally in Ohio this evening just to see what all the fuss was about. She was standing next to a man whom she over heard saying "The Klan Rally is right after this event, we can put on our hoods then."
Good for America. Seems like all of these Fact Checks that CNN does keep saying the same thing: That McCain is full of $#|+!
Keep doing what you're doing Obama! I'm betting that the polls conducted after the debate last night will show improvement for you. Keep it positive..keep talking about what you can do to help us and we'll help move you to the White House!
Gallup has Obama up by 9?did you factor that into your poll of polls?
Obama~What a true Presidential one!
I am so disgusted with the McCain/Palin campaign right now. It's becoming so sad that out of complete desperation they are saying whatever they feel will get votes. McCain is outdated and antique. His ideas are so far removed from reality and Sarah Palin is so disgusting to me that she is getting her base so riled up they are calling Obama a terrorist and he was born in the midwest and raised by his white grandparents. Also, there are calls to kill him. Why isn't anyone speaking up on this issue. It's so pathetic how desperate they have become to win. When did are society become so low that when racial comments are hurled from the crowd there is no response by the candidate. This is why I have lost all respect for the dynamic duo. And I know I am not the only one.
Palin is a complete idiot. She sunk the Republican ticket. Someone should have shut her up long ago.
Awesome!!!! Mccain and Palin are a JOKE!!!
Magic 60 = real change and progress for the American people.
Obama/Biden 08
Way to go!!!
Obama campaign and voters...keep up the good work!
Everything is over but the CRYING!!!! Obama 08' McCain should have picked Chelsea Clinton for VP. He would have won the election.
Palin is in Florida. Tomorrow Obama will lead in Florida marginally! Wanna betcha?
It is time for a change and I can't wait. Get out and Vote!!!
It's all about shoring up our healthcare reform and job creation umbrellas, but, also, too, though, it's about fightin' and lettin' Joe 6 pack know that the mavericks are gonna ruffle the feathers of wall street greed, and dog gone it (HEAD SUDDENLY EXPLODES)
OBAMA BIDEN 08
There's plenty of time for McCain to win....nationally, your 15 mintes are ticking away, BO.

Thanks for letting us know........I am going to email, text and fax all who NEED to know this information. Thank YOU SO much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Klan Rally should know the MAJORITY ISN"T what it USED to BE!!!!!!!!
Bwhahahahahahahah It's time for a change in pace. I'm sure many of us are tired of the same old song and dance that we've had for so many years. It seems that Obama is truly sincere in his intentions.
McCain is a typical politician.
I've voted for 26 years and never been called for a poll. As proven in the past the have little or no validity since they can be altered to fit a specific agenda. In my view these are just another tool the liberal news organizations are trying to use to sway voters. To bad Americans are smarter then that...
i cannot wait until the GOP is chased out of the executive and legislative branches...they got their chance and failed
Yes! let some sanity return to this place! Cool, calm, reasoned, collected sanity.
Obama/Biden '08!
What real change has Obama offered? A secret health plan that FINES Americans who don't want it? He couldnt even answer how much the fine was during the debate. A bunch of nonsubstence air is all I've heard from him...
CNN POST THIS
WAKE UP AMERICA.. CNN SAID McCain's plan to buy mortgages is (((FALSE))))!!!! CUZ JOHN McCain steal Obama's idea 1 months ago.
Americans have decided to take America back.
CHANGE FROM THE BOTTOM UP.
OBAMA/BIDEN 2008 – 2016
Good Deal!
