CNN

Can we say "Checkmate"? Oh yeah–that's one step ahead of everybody–that's why he's our man!!

Taking America for the American People.

Just sent $200.00 to the OBAMA campaign.

OBAMA/BIDEN 2008 – 2016

Nancy, you typify the Obama supporter; one who listens to a bunch of empty words. Everyone goes ga ga over Obamer, whether he's in a debate, or at a campaign event, yet all he does is speak in vicious circles, never saying anything of substance. I finally realized that he's figured he can speak a bunch of fancy sounding words, act as if he knows what he's talking about, and fool people like you. I never fully realized how many ignorant Americans there were until Barry hit the scene.

My gut said that this is too much. But I felt the same way about accepting the nomination and it was really well-done. He won't hog the stage.

Oh great what we need is another hollywood junkie with his own tv station and now another 30 minutes, next I know there will be nothing else on tv. Maybe Opra or Joy will get him his own tv show, if so I'll have to throw out the tv.

Good strategy hopefully all of the non beleivers will see Obama right canidate for this awful mess we are all in after they watch this. I'm sure it will be all positive unlike his opponet. Mcain and Palin are so disgusting I hope people wake up!!

Obama2008

The six states seem to be in violation of federal law in two ways.

Some are removing voters from the rolls within 90 days of a federal election, which is not allowed except when voters die, notify the authorities that they have moved out of state, or have been declared unfit to vote.

Let the Moose chips fall where they may

People, do you realize that the Dow has lost about 40% of it's value in the last year? I just checked my 401K and it's down $25,000. I came to work today and while I tolled away like a good productive American worker, I LOST $3,000. This is serious.

And I just don't think John "My wife is worth $100 million" McCain gets it. I'll vote for the guy with one house, one car and who just paid off his student loans recently. I gotta think he feels the hurt a little more like I do.

This is great. He needs to tell the closed-minded, fool-hearty, voters who have only three teeth and a fat butt, that

a) He is not Muslim, but respects ALL religions (since that is the reason our country was founded)

b) He is NOT elitist – having only one house, one wife, one car, unlike the three-wife totin'competitor how married-for-money (is HE the sugar daddy?)

c) He wants WHAT IS BEST for you and me.

Now, educate yourselves, get some dental implants, put down your guns, dress out your moose, carry it back to your wood-fired poo-little-shak, and PAY ATTENTION!

DEMOCRATS ARE TAKING GOVERNMENT BACK!

Good luck Obama!

OBAMA/BIDEN 2008

Way to go bear. Fuel the racism and bigotry.

Throughout history, when humankind would sufffer from famine,depression,opression,and world wars,destiny would always bring forth a man or woman of greatness. Barrack is that one. I can understand why Macane rants and raves when he debates Obama. Its because hes in the presence of greatness and he knows it.

why are these people who are Hillary supporters being so stupid?

do they have a brain to realize that Barack Obama will have a better position than VP for Hillary in his cabinet???

bear I Hope You Gave!

Palin She's Melting, Time For Her To Head Back To Her "AIP" Pals!

They Have A Flag Burning, Coming Up Very Soon!

I've never felt this much energy in politics. Obama is exactly the cure this country needs from the last 8 years. How can anyone not be excited?

It is so hard to believe that people can allow themselves to still like McPalin admin. right now they are acting like little kids who got their lollypops stolen. Could they be acting like children any more then they are? Grow up and take a loss like an adult. Palin all your "new" news is old news you were not even a thought when it was already brought to everyone attention. GO OBAMA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 08

Yes, bear, all cheesecloth must send money.

If you're going to slander a candidate, at least spell the slander correctly.

Excellent! Obama has run a very admirable campaign. Looking forward to it.

Check out the few minute documentary 'The McCain-Palin Mob' on yt. Very interesting.

Hillary Democrat is undoubtedly not a Democrat at all and has never been for Hillary. Obama would win by a landslide if only women were voting! For many years the Republicans have outspent the Democrats and now that it is the other way around they are crying foul. The McCain campaign has turned to hatred and racism in a last attempt to win. Hillary supporters would never support a ticket with Palin on it. She is the antithesis to Hillary.

it shows how much this guy wants to get the country back togather. obama 08!!!!!!!

It should not be necessary. It is weird that it might be, This is a clarity such as is not seen in less than 3 generations. I'm currently 2nd in four still living, and the older I get the more I feel in touch with those who went before us. I had ancestors on both sides at Hastings in 1066. And 1776, And 1861. This is another big one.
And it should be a done deal. John McCain was honorable, but has lost it all. Palin should have never been pulled into this world-stage we live on. Barak Obama is the future we all hope will come to be.

I am simply thrilled that Barack Obama is doing so well in the polls, I am positive he will win this election. My husband and I have had an Obama sign in our front window since January, we have also loved Biden since seeing and hearing from him in the primary debates, and couldn't be happier with Obama's outstanding campaign and his selection of a running mate. Brian and I were very early supporters of Clinton, tentative of course at first until we heard from all of the candidates, and quickly became supporters of Obama believing him to have the best chance at becoming president over the Republicans and also because he represented our beliefs the most closely. Had Hillary Clinton become the Democratic nominee we would have fully supported her and volunteered for her and I hope one day we have another brilliant, strong woman like her run for president and win on record, intelligence and judgment, not that I think it's too late for her to do many more great things for this country. I am proud to be a Democrat this year, with the many wonderful candidates we had to choose from I constantly felt and still feel bad for staunch Republicans, what a sad selection they had to choose from....so bad some of them got excited about the terrible choice of Palin as their VP nominee.

I'm glad to see him using all those millions on promoting his message by trying to reach as many citizens as possible!!!

What a steady hand!

Obama/Biden '08

Propaganda. It is pathetic when someone can 'buy' an election. We are becoming a communist country.

As an employer I would rather hire a straight A graduate from Harvard than a D student in the military. Wake up people and come to terms with it McCain is not the man for the job in any way, shape or form. I feel like I'm surrounded by a bunch of idiots when you defend this idiocracy. GO OBAMA GO!!!!!

Go, Obama! Go!

His first choice for VP, OJ, will be in his cell watching intently.

Wonderful! But I have already "early voted" for that one.

Maybe Senator Obama can articulate in his 30-minute infomercial, why I should vote for him. If he was a caucasion man, his name was Barry Obama (Barack Obama used this name while attending school) and he had no leadership experience except for two years as a community organizer and 190 days as a US Senator, would he even have the nomination of his political party?

Good job Obama!

GOBAMA..He's already on the dish network channel down here in central Florida, 24/7 around the clock. The station is named, OBAMA.

It`s great! This is my President!!!!

Obama 08

I hate to be blunt, but White Americans are screwed if Nobama is elected.

CHANGE IS COMING –MCCAIN GO HOME- YOU DONT EVEN MAKE SENSE AND YOU THE ONE RUNNING FOR VP- GO BACK TO ALASKA AND STAY THERE. CHANGE IS COMING !!!!!

As long as he doesn't buy a 30minute time slot on ESPN I am fine with it. Spew more nonsense Obama you liar!

Obscene use of funds at a time when Americans are being savaged by lavish spending and poor judgment in so many economic sectors. Obama has no specific plan to address this crisis, and now has compounded his lack of leadership with a lack of judgment. Shame on Barack Obama and all of those who would support this move!

Innovative is an understatement. How can anyone doubt no stone will be left unturned [in terms of making America great again] when he becomes President.

What would it be like if we gave Palin 30 minutes of air time? The answer is on Saturday night live TONIGHT!

Very smart move–I am sure that the Republicans know now that if they were planning the "lie to end all lies" at the last debate next week, they can forget it!!

Right on!!! Obama is the only candidate that's able to think these things through. McCourageless couldn't handle 30 minutes of addressing the issues to the American people.

What an ego.
MCCAIN/PALIN '08

bear....you're an idiot....go back to Alaska...

The best thing he could do with 30 minutes of airtime is to put McCain and Palin on live TV and let us all watch them implode.

Good news, should be something interesting I'm sure. Obama is smart, intelligent, and presidential. He will make good use of the time to further communicate his message. He will show the undecideds just how smart, intelligent and presidential he is. I can't wait for Election Day, so this country can start healing.

I'll definitely watch!!!

"That One" is the one.

Will his terrorist friends outside the U.S. be able to watch?

I would hope that those who want Clinton in 2012 would vote Democratic this year or there will be nothing for Hillary to govern. A Republican President with a Democratic Congress will get nothing done...just like the last 2 years. Think clearly before you let your disappointment about Clinton this year overwhelm your clear thinking.

That is amazing! I can't wait!! I am going to host a watch party for all my family and friends to come and watch. He is so inspiring....I finally believe we will have a President with a global vision about where this wonderful country will go!

Man, this guy is good I want to hate him so bad but I love him so much, he is white too black people can't have all the credit for this great leader. I wonder if he is my cousin or something, no I'm not smart enough. Now , I don't feel racist no more, and Rev. Wright was right, man I love JayZ, Tupac, Young Jeezy,etc. Black people are great remember they came from the richest country in the world, and survived everything this country has put them through. It feels good to show some love, because at the end of the day blacks always showed me love.

This is awesome. Shows capability of complete control and interest of the problems which problem America. People want to hear, so this is what Obama will do: Talk to the American people. As Biden said, folks... this will be the most important election in your lifetime. Choose now which way you want this country to go. It has been too far right for too long. Greatest debt we have ever seen.

Coming November 4, 2008...

'That One' will be elected the next President of the United States.

Obama-Biden '08

Obama's resources are not unlimited. Let's make sure he and Joe Biden have our limited resources to stage a finish to this race which will overwelm the opposition. Don't forget the Democrats running for the House and Senate. With out them in the congress, President Obama will have "holes in his bucket" while he tries to carry our water.

He earned this money at the Barbara Streisand fundraiser, or no, maybe it was the Bruce Springsteen Concert.....no, I'm sorry, it was the Madonna concert last night while she was flipping off people supporting Palin. I'll tell you, Obama is aligned with some pretty impressive people, huh? Even guys that like to blow up buildings and stuff. I understand Obama just released a one minute add talking about how he used to go fishing with his grandfather. Just the kind of information I've been looking for. People WAKE UP!!! Anyone who is ignorant and stupid enough to vote for this man is being extremely reckless with your privlege to vote. This is a man that has no experience, started politically in Chicago with honorable men like the Strogers and Ayers, has questionable ties to the Fannie Mae Freddie Mac Scandal, changes his mind everyday, doesn't stand for anything, AND has never initiated ANYTHING during his time in the Senate. He stands for change??

ALL LIBERALS WILL BE WATCHING THE 30 MINUTE Obama "Brainwash America"

Finally, a reason to not watch TV – Maybe I'll go for a run.

I think this is a great idea. Maybe he can have average Americans on with him so that he can talk with them and show that he understands their issues and talk about how he plans to address them. You know – get away from the Washington politics and get into what America wants and needs.

I have all the issues that I feel are important and why I am choosing Obama up on a web site I created - obama.jjamm.com. Feel free to check it out

We will be a prosperous nation if and when Obama runs this country the way he has run his campaign.

Wether people want to admit it or not, there is something very unique about this man. He has strategically galvinized a nation, particularly the young people. This a movement! Similar to the history making Civil Rights Movement. Some people may not understand it yet, but hey, it took people a while to understand the significance of MLK and the Civil Rights Movement too.

Obama/Biden '08
The Change Movement!

To the supposedly "Hillary Democrat"– if you really were a Hillary Democrat, you'd be doing what she is asking you to do– now vote for Obama!

Here is one more reason why Obama should be president. While every organization in the country going down the tubes, Obama's campaign has so much money, it can pretty much buy any amount of air time it wants.

Good. Meanwhile I am sure the 'double standard' race card will come out. If it were McCain, way cool (The man who has 9 homes and wife with a $300,000 dress on.) But if Obama, elite stuckup, yada yada. Who married one 'educated' woman!

All muslin must support Obama and give money.

Obama is a Radical FRAUD – he has too many "friends" who seem to be corrupt.

Yes, I care about the economy, health care, the war – AND
ACORN!!!!!

I don't believe CBS or NBC will charge him a dime.... they are in his pocket. I say let him have it – it will be worth watching him do down when he can't deliver on what he is promising.

Phil, you will put down your 10.00 to see their movies but don;t like how they spend said money once it's theirs, and you forgot that McCain went to Hollywood and shook his moneymaker the week before the last hollywood Obama fund raiser.

This is a smart use of contributor funds. I so wish I could contribute to his campaign, but as a Canadian, it's against the law. All I can do is pray that the American people will vote for BHO.

Great...another Hitler wannabe. Talk about arrogant.

As John McCain keep whinning, lying, manipulating and running out of time, Barack Obama shines with confidence.Obama is the only future hope me and my family have-his plans are clear and positive. In this Economic downturn, we need a stable leader with a clear vision not an erratic leader like John McCain.

Emmanuel

From Florida

How incredibly progressive is this!!!

Finally smart leadership not afraid to talk to the American people!!!

GO OBAMA-BIDEN!!! On the 20 yard line; not far to go now!!!

I rather be "The One" than "The Old One", you know why Barack Obama is purchasing 30 mins prime time network time because...

HE CAN! So you repugs, get over it.

YES WE CAN CHANGE THIS COUNTRY!

Hey Houston: What is so good about small government? That's what got us into the mess we're in now–the false belief that government intervention is bad for the economy. Now because of our screw-ups, my tax dollars are being spent to bail out wall street–but not me or my family. I'm 41 and my retirement plan is in the tank. By the time I'm 65, I won't have retirement OR social security because of the screw-ups of folks like McCain and their generation. It's about time my generation had one of it's own in the office.

And Hillary Democrat–please tell me what more experience Hillary has than Obama? In the senate a couple more years? She is certainly preferable to her husband, but she ran a really dirty campaign

With all those illegal contributions from the US and the upwards of 3 million he has gotten from overseas, why not. He has the crooked money, I guess he might as well use it. AND PEOPLE WANT THIS PERSON TO BE PRESIDENT. He makes bush look like a choir boy.

why not? he's seems to be buying everything else...the media, the sanctity of voting, teh election.

he and his campaign makes me sick. after he flew people from WA state into Texas to run the precinct caucuses I knew why he did so well at the caucuses. We had his people running our causus and counting our votes. then at the county convention his campaign protested and said the precinct alignment was unfair and had his people realign the precincts (in his favor) His dirty underhanded politics litterly make me want to hurl

college kids, gang mambers, and dope smoking hippies choosing our next president...wonderful

Sorry obama – you cannot BUY this election. The American people are SMART – YOU can play innocent and your corrupt campaign can spin the TRUTH – BUT – we will find out.
Ayres, Rev. Wright, Rezko, Raines – ACORN – all corrupt guys that
obama does NOT know!!!!!

Hillary Democrat, please don't call yourself a "Democrat". if you are supporting McCain you do not hold the values and goals of the Democratic party therefore do not deserve the affiliation. Please change your party and hold your breath for Hillary. She lost. Accept it and move on.

Can't wait !!!

Obama/Biden 08, 12

I can’t wait till Nov 4th when Obama wins the election. I can’t wait to see John McCain’s face. He will probably get angry and pitch a fit like the silver spoon fed rich person he and Cindy are. McCain’s Campaign has even turned conservatives to Obama. Every time I hear McCain talk he is complaining. He has nothing better to do now but hold Anti Obama rallies. Obama will be the next president! If you want to ever see Social Security, economic progress, clean reliable energy (wind Power Natural Gas) and real change in Washington vote Obama! WE CANT AFFORD 4 MORE YEARS OF BUSH

Obama 08!

Excellent Move !!! OBAMA/BIDEN '08

With 30 minutes of air time, maybe Obama can better explain to the American people his longtime relationships with Bill Ayers, Rev Wright, ACORN. And just why he believes he has the character, judgement and true leadership qualities to be our president with little senate experience?

IM VOTING FOR THAT ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will gladly donate another $100 to help fund this effort!!

Eleanor, take your blinders off and get the peanut butter out of your ears.

&& i know mccain is pissed now lmao

THAT ONE has proven again and again how media and technologically savvy his campaign has been. THAT ONE's campaign has spent their money wisely and prudently, and that is why THAT ONE is going to go straight to the White House.

THAT ONE '08~REAL change we can believe in.

oh, i'm excited, too! think I just peed, a little!

Okay MI girl, here's a post about the proposal. If Obama can use that time to illustrate, simply and effectively, his economic and energy plans, and to show how all his proposals relate together, a la Ross Perot, then it will be a terrific use of his time. If he takes 30 minutes to rehash his speeches and attacks, then it will be a terrible idea and could cost him the election.

Considering the campaign he has run so far, I would bet on the former, if I had any money left...

AMERICAN VOTERS , MOST OF THEM MAKE THEIR FINAL DECISION IN THE VOTING BOOTH..
BARRING THE NEW REVELATIONS OF VOTER FRAUD ALREADY OCCURING IN SOME STATES ...NEVADA FOR EXAMPLE WHERE,
THE FBI HAS GOTTEN HOLD OF MULTIPLE VOTING PAPERS/REGISTRATIONS BY ONE PERSON MAKING THAT PERSON TO VOTE TEN TIMES . THAT SAME PERSON HAD MULTIPLE ADDRESSES AND SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBERS.
THE ANOMALY IS UNDER INVESTIGATION AND ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND THE ORGANIZATION " ACORN" IS BEING INVESTIGATED AS A SOURCE . IF TRUE , AND IF FOUND TO BE NATIONWIDE, IT WILL CREATE THE BIGGEST CHAOS IN OUR
PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

I love reading the jealous and spiteful comments from the neo-cons. It will be sweet sweet music if Obama is elected.

Like it or not people Obama is going to win so I guess i am voting for him as for McCain if he was the only one running I wouldn't vote for him it would be like voting for Bush again and we don't need anymore of that.

Canada is watching your election and cheering for Obama. May God's grace continue to shine on him.

Glad to hear that Obama is going this route...A change for America...A change for the future.

Obama/Biden 2008

We hear to much of his smooth talk already. This would be pure torture and turn alot of people off!

I hope he'll have all of his anti-American, racist, domestic terrorist friends available to speak as well.

What a brilliant move by the Obama campaign to purchase air time. Always steps ahead of McCain. Obama is brilliant, cool and remains focused on the issues – a true statesman. McCain is a mean spirited failure of a politician. An angry old man who has lost control. It is definitely reflected in his campaign rallies. These rallies have morphed into angry mobs screaming insults, racial slurs. It would not shock me to see a cross burning there!

It is one thing to mislead the American public in a debate or media sound-bites, but it is quite another for Mr. Obama to stretch his machinations and fabrications into a thirty minute info-mercial. If Mr. Obama and his campaign wish to continue his media free-ride, less exposure is probably the key. We have heard it all before and this sort of egotistical spectacle will only make him look even more cartoonish. He thinks very highly of himself, doesn’t he.

There are sick minds who can't see a higher power working with this election! Obama has been chosen to lead this country and interact Globally for all people!! he has my Vote!!!!!!!!!!!!

So much for not providing details on things.

Imagine if McCain and Palin had to fill five minutes with anything but canned speeches.

I will be sending Obama 100.00 towards his air time. Mccain and palin are shamful people who have the nerve to call themselves christians!!!!! The republicans are desperate and will not even stop their supporters from yelling "terrorist" and "kill him" at their rallies. That is absolutely disgusting.

First off, there are still SOME bigoted people, primarily older white people, who can not seem to get past the way things used to be. Sorry to inform them, but we ARE NOT going back to the days of Jim Crow of the segregated south! So get over it , grow up, or get gone! As a young African-American male, I have not seen or experience much racism directly. But, that doesn't mean that I have seen some of it. I absolutely refuse to go through the racial mess that my parents or grandparents went through. I shouldn’t have to! Our generation is one that is trying to get past all of the ugly things from our past in America. This ugly past is shared by whites, blacks, brown, and every one in between. Whites and Blacks are now standing hand in hand to resolve our issues of race that have plagued this country. Barack Obama has given, not just Blacks, but ALL people the hope that we need in order to press forward from the days of old here in America. The racism and bigotry has got to stop. The fact that there are people who will not vote for a black man just because of his skin color is not a reflection of America, but a reflection on THAT PERSON'S IGNORANCE and HATRED. Believe it or not, the old generation that continues to think in these negative ways, along with continuing to breed this negativity in the current generation, are slowly and surely dieing off and leaving this world. God will no longer stand for it. The American people as a whole will no longer stand for it! Barack Obama gives SO many people hope. Just listen to the songs that many artists and stars have written about him. They are inspiring and heart felt. Do you hear any beautiful, inspirational songs about John McCain? No! You hear this country-sounding, “Raisin' McCain” garbage that, even in its delivery, has a negative tone. So, to the racist whites AND blacks AND brown folk out there, you are going to have to get over it. Barack Obama WILL BE our next president of the United States. The good-ol-boy mentality and its regime that has been primarily dominated by the older whites is DEAD. News to the older generation of racist (white) folks: YOU DON'T OWN AMERICA ANY MORE! And for the ones that continue to harp on Obama's name, if you read your CHRISTIAN bible (as many of them claim to be Christians yet they hate their own brother and sister of different races) they would know that the word BARACK means PRAISE!!! The name literally means PRAISE! Praise to God. Praise to the God of our nation and the God of the World, the father of Jesus Christ! So, as you read this, yes there may be some typos...if that's all you can find, then the point has gone over your head and you REFUSE to change or become enlightened by your own choice. However, if you continue to refuse, you will surely get LEFT BEHIND as the rest of us in America will continue to move forward with a leader who gives us hope, who has vision, and who has been ordained and chosen by God for such a time as this. And to bash this post FURTHER displays your ignorance...and every tongue that rises up against the truth shall be condemned. Don't believe it? Go read the book. My love is for EVERY person. We share a commonality that stretches past us being Americans. We are human beings. We are God’s children. Barack Obama…THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! Has a great ring to it!

I hear some really dumb remarks made here in Arkansas. "They just haven't heard enough from either of them". It's only been 19 months! Anyway, I watched Obama's TV time and it's great. Obama has used his resources wisely. Just like he will lead this country! I have given more to this campaign, than all the others combined. This is the most important elections every held. If McShame get in the White House, there will be nothing left of this country. He want to cut social security and medicare/medicaid. These people don't have enough to even buy proper food of medicine. SHAME ON HIM! He doesn't have a clue how the real people live in this country. It is just too scary to imagine.

PLEASE HELP SAVE THE COUNTRY! VOTE OBAMA/ BIDEN- (The smart ones)

Very good idea to purchase the air time. I don't know how long his campaign has had this planned, but it's a good follow-up to the fear/smear tactics his opponents have employed recently.

Cool! Is he going to spill the beans about how he wrote a paper in law school arguing that whitey should pay reparations to blacks? Or how his mentor Jeremiah Wright is an anti-semite? Or how he frequently chummed around with Rashid Khalidi, a devout anti-semite?

I like black folks, but not radical ones who hate whitey.

Looks like he's putting all of the illegal foreign donations to good use?

Great, all of the clueless Nobama supporters need to make sure they have bibs on hand to catch their drooling.

This will send shockwaves throughout the McCain election machine.I personally applaud the man for timing and nerve.Let the zealots and Klansmen attend rallies all day long,because the truth will hurt the liars.Dig it America!!!

DIRTY MONEY–ILLEGAL CONTRIBUTIONS–VOTER FRAUD–WHY??

While McCain is grousing about earmarks like Captain Queeg going on about missing strawberries–

while George W. Bush, the MBA President, is hiding under his desk and wondering how he can get a golden parachute and land back on his ranch in Crawford–

while even Grover Norquist and Dick Cheney are thinking maybe the country wouldn't be in such a mess if they'd paid some taxes and invested in the country instead of trying to hoard it all for themselves and their families–

Barack Obama, instead of resting on his lead, shows the courage to step forward and face the American people in these difficult times.

Rather Presidential, don't you think?

Finally, something worth turning my t.v. on for!

Wise move. Use the media to your advantage Obama. May you convince many more of the brainwashed right that there is something better.

30 minutes enough time to be forthright!

I CAN BARELY STAND HIM FOR A COUPLE OF SECONDS

LOL it cracks me up to see someone actually say they are rooting for McCain 2008 and Hillary 2012. These two candidates are totally opposite from one another on EVERYTHING. It's like saying I am against abortion in 2008 but will be for it in 2012. Sometimes my eyes can't believe the things I read out of people's mouths.

Phil – Would you put your life on the line every single time you walked out your front door for career acheivement?

Great! This will give him time to go into more detail on what he wants to do and how he is gonna do it.

Obama/Biden 08
Dick Lugar (R) for Secretary of State!!!

Obama turns down campaign financing so that Hollywood can fund his campaign. The country is in a financial crisis and he chooses to waste money on TV airtime. How can people view this as a positive move. It shows, in my opinion, a mismanagement of funds and hopefully the American public will see through it. Obama is all about grandstanding and being the center of attention. I truly feel sorry for all the people voting for Obama simply because they think he will be able to enact all of his programs next year. Please wake up from your instant gratification fantasy soon. There will be no tax cuts next year.

Only once in a lifetime do we see someone who can lead on the level we are witnessing ... I am willing to do my part to help the United States of America. Are you willing to do yours? Then stop resisting and let's get to work!! First things first. Onward and upwards towards election day!!

Obama/Biden '08/'12
Biden/Richardson '12/'16

Your money is not safe in the USA... Hide it under you Pillow... It is still in American D0llars.... You have to invest in Canada.... America... oBAMA """""""CAN'T TOUCH IT HERE""""...

Fantastic Mr President. I will be watching.

I am so proud of Barack Hussenin Obama. I say his middle name out respect for a man who had no choice in his name or color. He has ran the most well organized campagin. A campgain that can stick to the issues and win the poeple's heart. John McCain is running the sleaziest campagin I've seen. He claims to be a war hero but when I look at him, all I see is a coward. A coward who can't look a man in the eyes and tell him to his face what he REALLY thinks about him. A coward who would hide behind a womens skirt too do his dirty work. A coward whose second wife has shown no better JUDGEMENT during this election, than he did by leaving his first wife for her. I do not believe that John McCain thinks that Barack is a terrorist. I think that the people running his campgain has convinced him that that is what it takes to win. The fact that he can't take control of his own campgain makes him the biggest COWARD of all.

Obama 08/12

I wouldn't waste a half hour watching him. A half hour of lies.

30 minutes, that's enough time to come clean about all his Chicago/Illinois allies. Why Obama is so secretive about his days at Colmbia and Harvard University? Why he hide his thesis from both schools? Why his campaign tried to hide the $800,000 they gave ACRON to register voters?

Shut up Phil.

Your negativity is annoying.

"That One"/Biden – 08

I'm sure he'll use this time wisely to inform all of you who still has doubts as to who he is. So please listen carefully, because I'm sure he's tired of explaining

And to all of you who still don't know......
He's Barack Obama b**ch!!!!

Taking back the United States of America for the people.
The LAND of the FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Exciting.
I have sent $200.00 today to the OBAMA campaign.

He will need it to clear up all of the negative things that McCain and Palin are putting out there to frighten people, especically women, who they seem think can't think on their own.

Yes, Obama should and will change this nation.

Because this nation needs changes.

Nothing will change with McSame thats a fact. All his talks are in desperation and to swing votes.

Everyone knows that.

Go Obama / Biden 08

This country deserves a great President..this country deserves Obama!

LOL it cracks me up to see someone actually say they are rooting for McCain 2008 and Hillary 2012. These two candidates are totally opposite from one another on EVERYTHING. It's like saying I am against abortion in 2008 but will be for it in 2012. Sometimes my eyes can't believe the things I read out of people's mouths.

Type John McCain Traitor and see what you find out:soldiers that break under torture are just normal men who could not take the pain.John McCain is no Hero

Who does this man think he is-GOD!!!!-get a grip!!!

That's great news! This is history in the making.

The man knows what he's doing ! Time to tighten the screws down. This is the kind of leadership we need to bring this country and world together. GO OBAMA !!!

October Surprise??

one more thing...no one believes the people who say "i'm a Dem and keeping my options open" you're not a Dem, you're a Republican in sheep's clothing

Follow The Yellow Brick Road McCain!

Palin She's Melting, Time For Her To Head Back To Her "AIP" Pals!

They Have A Flag Burning, Coming Up Very Soon!

My husband and I both will be voting Democrat this year. Anyone who cannot see through McCain and Palin's lies are just beyond hope. We just hope the majority of Americans see the same.

I think that is a brilliant move. To be able to spend 30 minutes with the american public without a 1 or 2 minute time limit is exactly what the campaign needs to do. He can explain himself on every subject without Mccain snickering in the background. Obama wants to be president and that's the difference.

IT IS AMAZING TO SEE ALL THE NEW IDEAS THE OBAMA CAMPAIGN HAS BROUGHT TO THIS ELECTION..FROM THE DATABASE THAT HOLDS MILLIONS OF NAMES OF OBAMA SUPPORTERS, TO THE WAY THE VOLUNTEERS ARE OUT REGISTERING PEOPLE...AND NOW THIS. NO ONE CAN SAY THAT OBAMA IS NOT HIP.

I THINK THIS IS GREAT...NEW IDEAS IS WHAT WE NEED. OUT WITH THE OLD INCLUDING MCCAIN, IN WITH THE NEW.

OBAMA/BIDEN 08

I wonder if McCain will blow his budget trying to keep up with Obama? What a great Tactic Obama is using or is it a strategy?

good move...the more he speaks the more people start to think(that didn't already) that this man is ready to be President.

FINALLY a reasonable and personable way to spend campaign dollars! Regardless of your political affiliation, it's nice to see money being spent on TV spots that aren't simply smear campaigns ( I hope).

This is so funny this is driving the hillbillies nuts. They can not come up with any good ideas but yee hawing their Palin Klan rallies

"That one" is smart and will be our next President

Must-not see TV

Fact Check about McCain: He really needs to be evaluated by a Psychiatrist. I saw him on tv last night during one of his campaign rally and remember he like to say " To my fellow Americans" instead he said "To my fellow PRISONERS". FLASHBACKS IN VIETNAM. As a Gulf War Veteran myself, I can see that McCain clearly suffers from PTSD! thus resulting to his ERRATIC BEHAVIOR, changing his mind quickly without even thinking or forgetting the things he just said(sign of DEMENTIA). Does his own party notice that! PLEASE CAN SOMEONE HELP HIM? He's 72 years old and I really feel SORRY for him.

Follow The Yellow Brick Road McCain!

Palin She's Melting, Time For Her To Head Back To The "AIP" Pals!

Sarah and sidekick McNasty are getting close to inciting to riot.

I think it is important to those who are not sure of who Obama is. If those voters are unsure of Obama when they go to the voting booth, they'll either vote for McCain or a 3rd party. I don't think it matters if Fox carries his 30 minute spot, since Fox news fans are predominantly conservatives.

I think this might hurt him. If this happens during game 6 of the world series he might not get people to watch. Also 30 minutes will cause some people will just turn it off. Also 30 minutes can allow people to think about what he is saying and that could be bad for him.

McCain campaign:
holy ... smokes!!

While Obama is winning, McCain is trying to figure out what the heck is a planetarium overhead projector.

McCain...here is a hint..it is not the overhead projector used at your elementary school..lol.

Great! Let me mark that on my calendar so I can schedule a nap during that time!

Why not donate the money it costs for those adds??? Our country is suffering and he's spending 10's of 1000's of dollars on ads... Both candidates are spending money that our country could use in other areas. Also, has the president or any of our leaders thought about taking a pay cut????

All you pathetic white supremacists, racists, KKK members, etc.

Prepare yourselves for 8 years of Obama / Biden.

Deal with it losers!

This is wonderful news! I will send Senator Obama another $100 . The more the "joe six pack" and general public can see the clarity and sincerety with which this man speaks the better.
It is clear with McCain 's extremely erratic behavior, ie first seen in choosing Sarah Palin, in contrast to Senator Obama's more presidental demanor the better.
Thanks for the Good News!!!
Jim O

I find this very energizing. I have never seen a major candidate purchase such a large block of time. I'm excited and anxious to see how it will be used.

I think this is a good move. Regardless of what happens between now and then, if Obama can get on TV a few nights before the election and just talk to America, it will allow everyone to see him. I also think it shows that he wants to be transparent. I hope Obama becomes a president who regularly addresses the nation to keep the citizens up to date on information, not just one who addresses the nation for bad news.

The only thing will be that the day of these block we will see some wild things coming from the McCain campaign. Which will only play negatively I think. So this is win win for Obama.

Ugh. Now I have to find something to do for half an hour on that day, other than watch tv.

I can't stand McCain. But both candidates are horrible. For things that matter to honest, moral, hard working people who believe in small government and therefore the true American dream, Obama is a mistake.

Too bad McCain and Palin were not this democratic
I hope that McCain and Palin realize they need to step up and be *leaders* and denounce this anger in the crowds instigated the last few days by Palin and continuing today and then the media plays it up too!!
Need I remind people we are talking about a black man here
who could easily be targeted by some kook out there
this is a beautiful family we are talking about here
Like michelle Obama said last night people can disagree without being disagreeable and bitter
They both need to grow up and denounce this anger
All it takes is one angry person to get a crowd riled up
I seen that in Ed Henrys piece on the situation room

I think this is great. It gives a chance for people that don't know much about him and are still shaky to genuinely find out more about who he is.

This is good timing for him to have bought his own airtime spot. This will give him a chance for people to see what he's all about the people first/economy. He has ran his campaign politically sharp.

Obama/Biden 08

Funny, even FOX thinks that McCain is gonna lose. The ship is sinking republicans, jump off!!!!

Meanwhile, McCain continues to attack Obama personally! Finally realising that attack mode is all he has left.. He cant win on issues!

Pathetic!!

Obama is the only candidate with his feet firmly on the ground!

Doesn't "Hillary Now and McCain in 2012" mean you're not confident enough to re-elect McCain, and admitting to it, 4 years before the next election?

I hear people throw out the experience argument and to that I say...

No president ever operates in a vacuum....he surrounds himself with advisors. All I need to know is how good are the people from whom he seeks advice. Experience is not as important as judgment...look at their campaigns....who is getting the best advice?

I support Obama big time, but I am afraid that McCain and the GOP will do three things in response to this.

1. They will say its a shame that Obama has unlimited money to buy
the presidency.
2. They will have a fundraiser to combat what Obama is trying to do.
3. After raising enough money, the GOP will do the same thing and
say they had "no choice."

I think this idea is both brilliant and risky.

McCain has substance...lol. Ok.. Let's talk who has No Credentials..ummm..Palin maybe. American voters need to step out of their comfort zone just a little and look at what's going on in the world right now. We need Change! We need something different!! McCain is not Change. It's all about OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!

GO BARACK!!!

GOD Bless America!
GOD Bless the Obama-Biden Leadership

Brilliant. I'll take "That One" and the Democratic Party over the latent racism and corporate pandering of the Republican party ANY DAY.

Obama-Biden 2008.

Barack Obama is crazy! Out of his mind crazy genius!

Obama will use the time to help America grow more comfortable with the next President of the US. He will be leading all of us – Democrats, Republicans and Independents – and will start the process of healing the wounds that have been opened by the hateful rhetoric of John Sidney McCain III and Sarah Louise Heath Palin.

Nancy. Barack Obama is not going to change this country. You are. I am and anyone else will who will be responsible for themselves. Why does everyone want a god head to change the world?

If Canadians could donate to US candidates I would send a nice big fat check to Obama.

The world is doomed if McCain wins.

My own personal campaign among registered voters revealed that most voters with common sense vote Obama regardless of party lines. Only the republican base surrounded with hate (see fox news) and non-intellectual seem to attach to King dumb and Queen. dumber, respectively, McCain and Palin.

We need someone with a steady hand, someone who understands the economy, and someone that doesn't sell out the country to BIG BUSINESS. That someone seems to be Barack Obama!

I'M VOTING FOR THAT ONE HE'S A MAN WITH A PLAN

I LOVE OBAMA, HE IS A WISE MAN. TELL DAVID GERGEN TO APOLOGIZE, HE WAS ON CNN YESTERDAY SAYING HOW HE IS PROUD OF MCCAIN AND PALIN NOT BRINGING UP AYERS AND RACE, I WAS LAUGHING, I SAID TO MYSELF DAVID, JUST WAIT UNTIL TOMORROW IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN AND AGAIN. DAVID APOLOGIZE TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE FOR YOUR STATEMENT.

Dr. HRC Wilson, how can you support McCain after supporting Hillary? McCain was the one who made a disgusting joke, "Why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly? Because Janet Reno is her father." at a GOP fundraiser. Google it, look it up, fact check it. I would never be able to support someone who insults a child. Wake up and smell the coffee.

Fiscal responsibility has to be a top priority so the issue is forever taken away from Republicans leaving them with only national security fear mongering as their last bastion of "strength". Do the right thing Democrats so we can finally crush this plague that has used our flag as a shield and club against all opposition.

So the White House really is for sale to the highest bidder and biggest spender on corporate media. This is change?

awesome ! Our next president!

This is a smart move! Obama will use 30 minute spots to tell us why he is the most qualified candidate to lead our nation in these tumultuous times. I will watch for sure.

For sale: White house on Pennsylvania Avenue.

I mean he used my idea!

Whoohoo...and 'that one' ends it with a slam dunk!! How estatic! Go Obama

Smart move on Obama's part, but that is not surprising. Can't wait to watch!

Hillary not now maybe later and McCain never ever. Community Organizer is just what we need as whole. Obama Has stuck the nail in the Wall and the hammer will seal the deal.

Obama caries more human race than most of us. and also he is smart and human well educated American. the world is better off with Obama, America is Lucky to raise Obama specially in this difficult time.

Great news! Obama/Biden all the way!!!

Put a chart of Obama in the polls next to the Dow,s performance???

look out capital gains tax on the way. Stuff your money under the mattress.

Obama, Acorn, B. Frank is the cause of our economic mess! CLEARLY

Phil, it's my money tool. Not wallstreet or hollywood.

Dear Obama, 30 minutes is a long time – use it effectively and wise. And by all means, please do not stoop to the level of the McCain camp. You're better than that. Keep it real, and during your 30 minutes, speak to me in layman's tems that I can understand. You're almost there......keep hope alive!!

Why isn't anyone talking about the mob atmosphere at McCain/Palin campaign rallys? After being incited by McCain and Palin, the mobs surrounding them appear ready to get a rope and lynch Obama!

This has to be the nastiest, most unAmerican campaign I've ever seen. Aren't there laws against inciting riots? These two and their supporters are threatening to destroy this country, and the media seems happy to urge them on.

Hillary Democrat – u r an idiot

Just ignore those whiners over at the McCain campaign and all their lock step followers!

I am so happy he is doing this...

It's President THAT ONE to you Mr. Senator!

hehehehehe

Looking forward to listening to a man with vision!

Smart move, Obama! Address our problems! Let everyone know who you are, what you stand for, and how you will help this country. People want to hear from you. I just donated another 25 dollars to your campaign. God Bless you all!

To Hillary Democrat & others that feel the same way. You go home and keep quiet because nobody wants to hear or needs to hear what you have to say!!!!

Wow. All my contributions to the campaign in the first 3 seconds. lol.

That's right Barry, go over the top... your middle-eastern connections must really be "donating" a lot to your campaign... I wonder how you'll repay the debt? Just what we need- a President personally indebted to the middle east.

A great leader comes around every ten to twenty years. Obama is the next Great World Leader. WOW!!!!!!!!!!1

Seriously, he will probably be President, does he really need to waste the money for air time when he could use the money to help the people in need in this economic crisis. One best move he could make is donate his campaign money fund-raised... to the people in need instead of wasting it on ad-time where most people don't really actually watch ads, especially political ads on tv.

WHOOP, there it is.

O/B 08

Hillary Democrat does not honor either of the names she/he claims. Neither Hillary or any real Democrat wants to see John McCain and Sarah Palin in the White House. Obama is clearly the best qualified candidate in this race. Obama is presidential, McCain is erratic and unpredictable. Shame on the Greed Over Principle party for nominating this pair of losers.

McCain should never be mentioned in those 30 mn. I mean it. Ignore Mc. and concentrate it on Policy, practical application, and have the experts come in and do the explaining, with Obama and his crew.

30 minutes straight of him talking? I sure hope not. here in PA his 1 minute ones annoy me to no end, I'll turn of the TV if those come on.

McCain/Palin '08

Turn PA Red!

Go get-em Barack. Tell that angry old man how it is! We don't need any more erratic behavior to solve this mess we're in.

Wow. If you ever needed proof of Obama's leadership capabilities, just look at this phenominal campaign he has run. It defeated the Clinton political machine that hadn't been defeated since 1980 (and not by a fellow Democrat since 1976) and now he's used that to make Virginia, Indiana and North Carolina into swing states. His abilities in executive management are unprecedented for a presidential candidate.

Senator Obama wants to give the American people the opportunity to get to know him better. That's terrific! That's the change we can believe.

Good for U Sen. Obama. I know you will be a great president. Keep your head down and don't stop fighting for America and a better global world until its over.

My prayers will always be with you. God keep u and your family safe in times like this and beyond when the republican party is promoting hate..

Canadian gal

Come on folks ! Let stop the acorn fraud ! Obama can get elected without the fradulent voting schemes !

why not...drive the point home.....Obama has to fight fire with fire..!!

People will not be turned off nut turned on in the finale ....

Republicans for Obama/Biden

I'm a 67 year old retired white woman and an avid Obama supporter. I hope we get to see this talented man in office. Reminds me of the JFK days....some called it Camelot.

If you haven't voted yet, and can, do so. I voted for Obama today in Georgia and the early polling setting was very busy.

wonderful plan! May GOD's hand guide you in everything you do, Senator Obama. Thank GOD for you!

Obama-Biden 08!

Palin and her sidekick, McCain's rallies remind me of 30s Germany.
Sieg Heil, Sarah.

I heard a woman on the radio today talking about how she was accosted by a McCain supporter the ugliest way because she had on an Obama T-shirt. This white man attacked a white woman in a way that she feared for her life...over her freedom to express her political expression. The democratic primary was heated, but not to this temperature. McCain is playing the the lowbrow crowd and telling them it is OK to hate and fear this man not because of his policies (that can change), but things that can't change like his skin, name and blood line. McCain is UNWORTHY.

This is the effect of the McCain/Palin dirty war. Someone is going to get hurt and if they do I hope the victims of this war sue the pants off that campaign for inciting violence. The media needs raise their voices about this before it is too late.

Until now I was terrified that the McCain campaign would find some way to win. But their desperate tactics in the last week, the muckraking, borderline xenophobia and racism have convinced me that the campaign is self-destructing. I'm calling this one. Barack Obama is our next president, unless people really are as stupid as McCain thinks they are.

McCain now and Hillary in 2012? yeeesh.

How much do you want to bet that McCopycat will announce plans to purchase 30 minute blocks of network airtime, oh, I don't know, sometime in the next 24 hours maybe?

Why am I being censored? I'm an American and natural born citizen the of USA.

Barbara – 65 yr old white female in NC October 9th, 2008 5:39 pm ET
Your comment is awaiting moderation.
Good – because all we're getting in NC is the same old lies from "I'm John McCain and I Approve this Message".

It makes me sick – all the lies have been debunked for months and he gets on there and says it anyway.

McWarmonger Has NO HONOR

Obama/Biden '08 – vote early wherever you can.

GREAT NEWS TO HEAR. IM SO SICK OF MCCAIN/PALIN. MCCAIN WOULD HAVE HAD A BETTER CHANCE IF HE CHOSE TINA FEY AS HIS PARTNER! GOOD LUCK OBAMA, YOU ARE THE CHANGE WE NEED, ESPECIALLY NOW.

Way to go Obama!!!!!!

Bring your message about the real issues to the people.

Obama/Biden 08

LOL, the BIG BANG THEORY.

Barack's bringing his A game in this last month. He's going to rock the vote and the "hizzzouse".

I love it. I love how serious he is taking this race. He understands how important this election is. He deeply does.

I see JFK in OBAMA.....

Looks like some jealousy from the right wing.
All you complain about not knowing who Obama is. Well, here you go. he will give you a 30 minute lesson on who he is and what he wants to do. Are you going to listen or will you continue to foam at the mouth and complain that he won't say anything about himself and now that he will say something about himself, etc, etc.

It is clear who has a plan to run this country and who is going to say whatever they can in order to scare everyone to vote for them.

Sen. McCain And Gov. Palin, How Many Times Have You Look Into The Camera And Lied, Smear, Distorted, And Spinned The Truth!

By The Way Gov. Palin, We Haven't Forgotten About Your Ties To "AIP"!

Where Just Waiting For The Right Moment To Release iT!

Remember How Fast, The Keating Five 10 Minute Video show Up!

How can people say Obama has done nothing in the Senate? Please people do your research before spewing stupid comments. He's spent 12 years as a Constitutional Law professor,
spent 8 years as a State Senator representing a district with 750,000
people, became chairman of the state Senate's Health and Human Services committee, spent 4 years in the United States Senate representing a state of 13 million people while sponsoring 131 bills and serving on the Foreign Affairs,Environment and Public Works and Veteran's Affairs committees

All you Obama haters, get over it. He's the real thing! He is going to be one of the greatest presidents in the history of this country!

GOBAMA!

We need to hear Barack OBAMA.

Hillary Democrat,

It is sad and scary how your ignorance shows. I really feel sorry for you. Good luck weaving through the spin that the McCain campaign has been feeding you.

Hillary Democrat October 9th, 2008 6:09 pm ET

Go home to Chicago and be a community organizer…we need experience now in these uncertain times not a smooth talker. We can not trust Obama….. McCain now and Hillary in 2012
--------------------------------

Let it go idiot, you obviously will NEVER let it go that Hillary LOST and that there is nothing that can be done to change that fact. Telling you to stop being so narrowminded is useless as you do not want to open your mind to what your COUNTRY needs over what YOU want. I trust Obama over McCain and your ignorance is just what got this country into the mess we are in this very day. As far as "McCain now and Hillary in 2012", you narrowmindedness shows again. Do you HONESTLY think that things would really work out that way? That If McStain gets elected now that Hillary actually has a chance in Hell in 2012 without Obama's supporters? Do you truly think she can win without US? She CANNOT win with only 18 million voters, she would need US as well. You are truly closeminded and need serious mental help.

Smart move. He had a cable channel this weekend that played all day long.

ACORN been busted and now he wants to pander for votes. Buying air time to tell us what you want to hear except the thruth.

Permission to say 'PWNED' in a sentence...

This is WHY Sen. Obama will be the NEXT PRESIDENT, He's WAY ahead of John McCain and is always moving "forward". That's EXACTLY the kind of President we want leading our country. One who is brilliant, savvy and politically intuitive when it comes to changing HOW we do business in this country!!

We NEED CHANGE, we need to STOP LIVING IN THE PAST and WE need a President who is calm and steadfast and who isn't ERATIC like John McCain lurching from one position to the next but never consistent on any one issues.

I've lost count of how many times John McCain has changed positions in the last 20 months. I mean, it's mind boggling. AND this is who Republican want leading them? Mr. Jigzaw puzzle??

AMERICANS FOR OBAMA!! AMERICANS FOR OBAMA!!

AMERICANS FOR OBAMA!! AMERICANS FOR OBAMA!!

AMERICANS FOR OBAMA!! AMERICANS FOR OBAMA!!

AMERICANS FOR OBAMA!! AMERICANS FOR OBAMA!!

AMERICANS FOR OBAMA!! AMERICANS FOR OBAMA!!

AMERICANS FOR OBAMA!! AMERICANS FOR OBAMA!!

Excellent. Well planned, executed campaign. You truly are a winner OBAMA, and it has little to do with the election. For the first time in 8 years, I have reason to be optimistic.CHANGE IS COMING!
Si, se puede
OBAMA/BIDEN '08
1-20-09

LynneP October 9th, 2008 6:17 pm ET

He could be the next three weeks airtime but he will not be getting our votes. The 'stage strut' doesn't win elections. He has been in the Senate about five minutes before running for president, talk about NO CREDENTIALS, he is it. Obama is dealling in all flash and glitter and we need substance in the White House, seasoned, experienced substance and it will not come with Obama.
-------------------------------

You talk from emotion and deliberate lack of knowledge also known as ignorance.. let it go, bitter Hillary supporter

McCain: "my fellow prisoners" ?????? what's up with that? I see early signs of Senility/Alzheimers.

I used my idea. WOW!!!

Why is PETA so silent? Don't they loathe Palin's record on killing animals.

Now the only thing that comes to my mind is the negative vibe from the McCain compaign. Now it is his wife and his V.P. + himself at it. Does he have any plans how to turn around the economy? The country will be doomed with McCain as commander in chief.

Who cares!

Just thought I would write something since the last 4 opinions that I have posted CNN took out! No vulgar remarks just truth. Bet ya since it is not in favor of Obama it will not be posted. How about it CNN?

You go Senator Obama!!!! Do WHATEVER it takes. There is NO WAY America can afford another 4-8 years of the same. I am so happy that the campaign can afford the TV ads. I just read today that Obama/Biden campaign signs are being distroyed and burned in the south. There is no doubt in my mind that McCain and Palin have inspired this hatred, I am almost afraid that the worst is yet to come. We have to keep it together and show the world that we are indeed a free people and not bondaged by racisim.

Obama '08

This Obama is a real revolution not simply change. Democrat will nevr be the same after hi. The next DP candidat will have to adopt Obama strategy to compete with the cynical and terrible machine that the RP has always been. Obama has boasted the image of a party that has been the lime dock for years.
nganenu

i like surprises........

Barack promised a new kind of campaign, He has raised the bar, and i haven't seen nothing like this in my life time.

Lets Barack the House,

Obama is on 24/7 on Dish Network. Channel 74. Purpose is to talk about his plan.

For those who are asking who Barack Obama is? Ask Obama's grandmother.

Todd,
Have you looked at the polling data?

"The American people are seeing through your attempt to sway this election.
POSERS EXPOSED!"

What exactly does that mean?
Please explain.

cnn where does oboma get all this money from to buy air time. and he says he in touch with the american people oh is nice to have all those stars behind you, oprah etc. he buying his election. gloria

Sic semper tyrannis–And thus to all tyrants.

Take that McShame. The next time you gamble with America's future bring your A game– not some fruitcake with moose pies.

Obama/Biden 08

I hope that the polls that show Obama gaining and winning are correct and hold to be true. It could very well be that “the Bradley Effect” comes in to play and Obama loses to McCain. The American people deserve better than having an old desperate, bitter, hateful, spiteful man and his Viper VP to win.

Do you, you undecided voters and you, the McCain committed voters, really want a President that clawed and lied his way to the top represent you? Can you really trust that man?

Very interested in what he will say to us.

Moving forward and uplifting the nation.

Obama/ Biden 08

Maybe Obama's can articulate in his 30-minute infomercial, why I should vote for him. If he was a caucasion man, his name was Barry Obama and he had no experience except for two years as a community organizer and 190 days as a US Senator, would he even have the nomination his political party?

McCain is the new Hillary now in the media, Obama won the debate, Obama is ahead by 10 points POSITIVE POSITIVE for Obama, NEGATIVE for anyone who dare to run against Obama.

What a great idea! He is probably running the best campaign of my lifetime. Obama wants to speak directly to the people and is clearing the way to do so uninterrupted by the McCain campaigns nonsense. Brave, direct and brilliant.

And McCain will do anything to win! He's the biggest liar. And shamefully using Palin and wife Cindy to pimp for him. McCain is the shady character!

Its better than the negative ads and campaigns being perpetuated by the McCain Palin campaign!!!!

If the people who are undecided as of today, then they have serious self image, when they don't look at the two campaigns and which one is more desperate, as to use negative and condescending rhetoric!

To hillary democrat, I love this country. God Bless us all.

Get ready to see the jugular veins pulsating in the necks of all southern republicans, who are about to see "that one" become the next President Of The United States Of America.

'Obama 08

To aware from another post – Obama was raised in a white world by white grandparents and a white mother so he is probably more white than you, but not racist.

Obama is going to change this country. For the first time ever I feel hopeful for our future and my childrens future. I was for Hillary until I started listening to Barac. He is different from any other political figure in my lifetime. I believe that he can and will change America for the better.

We have two types of voter.

Voters for Obama and Voters aginst Obama.

No Voters for McCain

Why is this? I know and the whole world knows. So Sad

I am calling on the Hillary backer now for McCain and Hillary in 2012 I'm hopeful your intellect will win out in time and make the better choice in Obama. We have had eight years of the most empty minded leadership in America's history!!! McCain is just as empty headed. Hillary would have been a fine leader but please don't make a second mistake by creating a major blunder you'll really be sorry for.

Instead of sharing the stage with John McCain he should invite Bill Ayers, Rev. Wright, Rezco, Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Jim Johnson and Franklin Rains. They can all talk about their plan for America, Heck throw in Harry Ried and Nancy Pelosi. If America does not wake up soon it will be a bad 4 years

In this incredibly complex economic world, I think Obama's efforts to spend serious time discussing the economic crisis and offer some serious proposals for all of us to work through is not only needed but welcomed. I for one really want to hear from him, much like Roosevelt's famous fireside chats during the dark days of the Great Depression and WWII. Way to go, Obama!

I think that all Obama has to do is find a way to replay his Denver acceptance speech again just a few days before election... game over.

I have no idea why Obama would do this. Sit back and relax. McCain is out of steam.

He's putting my money where his mouth is–and I love it.

Obama/Biden 08

It looks like the end of the road for the 72 year old!!!

I simply refuse to believe that these people supporting McCain but identifying themselves are "Hillary Democrats."

They are not likely to be Democrats of any sort. They are typical Republicans – which is to say, lying cowards.

How can anyone look at the hard ball Barack Obama is playing in BOTH of these campaigns and say he doesn't come off strong. Talk about Talk softly and carry a big stick.

McCain has announced each punch he plans to try to throw at Obama and runs off at the mouth more than a short guy hiding behind his friends knees. Obama just comes with an unexpected punch and leaves McCain wondering what he just did and why?

McCain is going to try to block off some time too, now...but he has NO IDEA what Obama plans to do in that time slot.

This is HI LARIOUS!!!

LOVE THE STRATEGY!!! WE WILL ALL BE WATCHING!

To the Hillary Democrat, Excuses, Excuses think about the country . Republicans are the reason for this season. I had so much respect for Sen McCain before this phase of the election. He has turned unto someone who certainly does not deserve to be president. He is only using Gov Palin to get votes from people like you. Let's put race, gender aside and open our eyes to the fact that we cannot go back in the direction we have been going for the past 8 years. We need change. Not change that the Mccain/Palin ticket speak about. Their campaign just started the CHANGE THEME recently. He puts the campaign first, poor people struggling, and promoting hate is not a person who puts country first. Just think about it for once.

In a month is campaign will be over. One of these two men will go back to the senate, and the other will be president. His job isto fix this mess of a country.

Sen Obama and Sen Biden will do the country good. At least they won't be spreading hate and fear.

The McCain Palin rallies are getting very scary with the racist over tones. It is McCain DUTY to quiet this mob mentality. It is very dangerous.
Please John, for once, do the right thing and just stay on topic and stop the hate.

Way to go Mr President. McCain and her cheeleader 're out of touch and out of ideas.

Thanks for Fact Check, which keeps us informed and show the disparities between the candidates. I've had enough of McSame and his sidekick, Sarah six-pack.

You stand your ground Mr.Obama we know you speak the truth,Mccain has lied over & over again when you call the american people your american prisoners & then don't realize what you have just said what a crock who would want this man for President when he doesn't know what he is saying this is very scary and neither does his paper doll wife,she even has her information wrong said obama voted against the troops in Iraq no it was her husband that did that-now she needs to go get one of her beers and cry because this election for her husband and palin is over-she too needs to get educated on foreign policies before she speaks or accuse anyone of not knowning anything unlike herself she too is not worthy of any place in office even her Alaskians people don't care for her-so what do that tell you,GO OBAMA FOR 2008-& I will be at his INAUGURATION. This is a man of knowledge and for us american people to survive for it's been 8 long depressing years of these mccain politics that has not worked for us-so now we have a man who will support us american citizens who cares who has been walking in our shoes who knows what it is to be poor and afraid-MR.OBAMA has done this and that is why we American people has to get him in the chair-as far as mccain saying "that one" yes that one is for the people not mccain,so lets go people and vote"OBAMA"

What a weak move. His handlers must know winds are shifting.

So much for caring about the poor. I need money to help me through this rough spot in the ecomomy why doesnt he help me out what an elitist. There are people losing jobs and he is buying up alot of airtime on tv does that really sound like someoen that care about anybody but himself. He is trying to buy the whitehouse an di hope it backfires

wow.... Has this been done before?!

Looks like Obama is dropping the A-Bomb on McCain's Campaign on October 29th...

This is Great.

We can not stop and think we are going to win. Always play from behind. If the CONpublicans can play nasty, we will give them all we have!

I'd vote for Obama but I can't because i'm disabled. I wish we could vote online.

What a smart guy – he has run a great campaign and is incredibly smart and steady. I'm behind you Obama!

Juneau Alaska, we stand with Obama and Biden!!!

This is a better approach than the so-called debates we have been seeing. He can talk directly to the American people about his plans for us, and McCain can do the same.

I can't believe these Hillary supporters who are now behind McCain. Anyone who said they supported Hillary but now McCain clearly did not support her because of her policies. If they had, they would have realized that SHE supports Obama's policies and is nothing like McSame. You must have only been blindly supporting her because she is a woman. Thankfully, most of you have actually listened to her plea to get Obama elected come November. Listening to her shows her the respect you say she deserves.

I know I'll be watching "that one"

It'll bring tears to my eyes to Call Obama my president! I'll actually feel proud instead of shame when I talk to foreigners!

I am glad he is spending such large amounts of money on himself. Would we expect anything else? Obama's campaign is all about reverse discrimination. Attack anyone if there is innuendo in the speech/conversation and SCREAM racism. This is the guy who used the law to get his first Illinois senate seat and yet on the 2nd debate tried to break HIS OWN contract and Brokaw had to remind him that he signed that contract! Obama isn't about you, the voter, he is about himself. I truly hope he wins because I am sick, sick, sick of America and its hollywood politics and anti-intellectual media. Time to MOVE.ON!!!!

The same people that say Obama would make a dangerous leader are the same people that supported Bush, and far right wing necon talking points and were proven wrong time after time. And they refuse to admit that the Bush admin was toxic to America. Why value their opinions. They may as well try to convince us that Charles Manson would make a good roomate.

Hillary Democrat.... Let it go.

That One/Biden 08'

Very Smart Man;

Smart campaign! Smart management, Smart use of resources.
Smart leadership, Smart Judgement and intellect to bring about change!

It's Been Close To Two Years, I Know Enough!

Obama/Biden The One Two Punch, America Really Needs.

wow...in tough economics times and he is willing to waste oops spend sooo much money, while the American's he hopes to lead are really struggling...not good....

wasn't it Obama at the last debate who said AIG should pay back the 1/2 million bucks of tax payer money spent at the SPA...maybe Obama should pay back the 1/2 million (or more) spent on 30 minute television ads on major networks.

wasteful spending and he isn't even President yet..."Ready to spend BUT not ready to Lead"

For all of you shouting "experience" ad nauseum- have you ever had a boss with 20, 30 years in your field? Someone who pretty much sat in an office and played solitaire while all of his/her employees did everything? Someone with a big title and big salary because all of their experience- yet you wouldn't trust them to water your houseplants?
Experience isn't the only factor. Judgement, vision, clarity, diplomacy, ability to work with others- Barack Obama has so much more of these things than unraveling McCain. Think about it.

Rich, poor, black, white, and in between, Barack is the leader for America.

I can't wait to vote, and then get mavericky with my friends.

Obama/Biden 08

I'll be tuning in.

Our beloved country cannot survive four more years of the same policies we have endured for the past eight years. I feel Bush is the present day Herbert Hoover.

Any need for this again; Americans have realised that McCain's age cannot make him do the right thing; his eratic behavior like that of a teenager won't give chance for right judgements......Please quickly retire this man (McCain) from the senate.

Thanks for Fact Check, which keeps us informed and show the disparities between the candidates. I've had enough of McSame and his sidekick, Jane six-pack.

Compare the sucess of Obama'a campiagn with the struggles of John McCain's and get a first hand view of the leadership skills and vision of both men. It will be clear who is the best candidate or America right now

If this is anything like the 13 minute video they did on KeatingEconomics, it will be a gripping 30 minutes. I cannot wait.

Come on people, stop taking cheap pot shots at Obama. Why don't you try to be a community organizer? Not so easy, is it?

"That One"/Biden '08

The difference from being a senator and a president is this–when you are a senator, you are one of fifty. As president, you are the one, or should I say "that one". He'll make a much better president than Senator.

Obama/Biden 08

That's a good time to nail McCains hide to the wall. There will be no time for McCain to make up lies to cover his (6). Thats Navy talk and I'm Army and I know what that means.

Obama/Biden 08/16

McCain needs to go home to Arizona and be a NRA spokesman and anti-abortion activist. We need leadership and judgement now in these uncertain times not a liar who consorts with crooks such as McCain. We can not trust John McCain, not now, not ever!….. Obama/Biden are America's Future, Better Days Ahead!

Hey "Hillary Democrat"...after 8 years of Bush we are in this desperate situation, after McCain there will be no other president because after 12 years of disaster there will be nothing left here for anyone to be the President of. Republican for Obama.

God Bless Obama, he is the only hope we have for regaining the respect of the rest of the world. I am voting for OBAMA AND A STRAIGHT DEMOCRATIC TICKET.

Phil,
Have you seen his plan? Can you put aside the rankor long enough to LISTEN?
By the way, the Senator has authored 131 pieces of legislation in his few years in the Senate. He has crossed the isle with the likes of Tom Coburn of Oklahoma and Dick Luger to co-sponsor bills.
I have donated to him and I am no millionaire. Give the man a chance.

Who Will America Hire?

Obama:
Columbia University – B.A. Political Science with a Specialization in
International Relations.
Harvard – Juris Doctor (J.D.) Magna Cum Laude

Biden:
University of Delaware – B.A. in History and B.A. in Political Science.
Syracuse University College of Law – Juris Doctor (J.D.)

vs.

McCain:
United States Naval Academy – Finished 894 of 899

Palin:
Hawaii Pacific University – 1 semester
North Idaho College – 2 semesters – general study
University of Idaho – 2 semesters – journalism
Matanuska-Susitna College – 1 semester
University of Idaho – 3 semesters – B.A. in Journalism

A word is enough for the wise!

I think this is an inspired idea.

I feel that Mr. Obama is our present day JFK. I have already voted for him as has the rest of my family.

A Dedicated Ohio Voter

I notice alot of you are saying McCain 08 and Hillary 12, think about it for a secon though. McCain's mother is in her 90's so McCain could easily run and stay president from 08-16

Oh yeah one other thing, alot of VP's ran after the presidents term was up. Sarah Palin might run in 2016 and win? Ever think of that? Than in 2020 she can run and WIN again? Till 2024, Hillary will be in her 80's or 90's by then.

McCain 2008-2016!

Palin 2016-2024!

Looks like he is getting ready to lead us out of the slump we are in. I read today that he has been getting his transition team in place where McCain has not and it has been said that this is the time to do it so that when the election is over, they can finalize everything and get everyone in place.

Looks like Obama is the one ready to work and LEAD on day one.

i hpe this time they take there time and talk about puerto rico because they have several fund raisers in the island and made more than 400,000k in the past 2 months he should at least say how he stands in puerto rico political status if he is for state hood, Independence or common wealth

GOOD! MAYBE WE CAN GET OBAMA'S TRUTH WITHOUT THE DISTORTION OF THE McCAIN TEAM LYING AND CONNIVING. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE NEED TO BE ABLE TO HEAR AND SORT OUT THE REALITY OF OBAMA SO AS TO CAST THEIR VOTES FOR THE ONLY TEAM THAT WILL BENEFIT US AND THE WORLD!

OBAMA / BIDEN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

"Hillary Democrat" - Dream On ...

Vote for Stability ...

Democrats '08 ...

how is this going to help the economy. Its not Talk about being stuck on yourself

There is no such thing as a Hillary Democrat..only a R troll in a pantsuit.

november 4 vote barack obama!!!!!

I think barack obama has bought air-time only to reach the people in a way only he can do... If you have ever been to one of his rallys then I'm sure you can just imaging when he can get air time what he could do or who he can reach... I'm sure he will show a lay out plan on moving this Country forward... What ever he will do with that time would be a good thing... As long as don"t spend that time to use it on knocking down McCain (cause he doing that all by himself)....DO YOUR THING OBAMA WE ARE THERE FOR YOU CAUSE YOU ARE LISTENING AND TO US!!!!!

My comments never post!

The chosen one has surrounded himself with crooks like Harold Raines and J. Johnson. They took more than 100,000,000.00 dollars out of Fannie Mae. They now advice the chosen one. If I am to believe his talk, then they will soon be going to jail with the rest of the corporate crooks. Obama supports terrorist, that is important, especially as he continues to lie about their relationship. Only a brainwashed, drunk on the kool-aid Obama-maniac could believe the explaination that """ he was just a guy in the neighborhood"".

Who's creative, innovative and visionary–THAT ONE.

I love it.

Barack the Vote, People.

Oh, "Hillary Democrat," you remain the most foolish of all. Wanting to vote for McCain so dear, dear Hillary will have her chance in 2012. Truth is, we will never survive four years of McCain, so get with the program, follow what Hillary said herself and get on board the ideals needed for America and not personal preferences due to gender and color.

Early voting is the way to go.

Registered Republican voted Obama/Biden 08

Can't wait to watch Obama inspire more Americans!

Yes we can

Obama needs those 30 min. McCain and his sidekick are throwing mud everywhere. They say they are asking for explanations. Fact have been checked, explanations have been given but apparently it's not only Palin that can't read. This is getting ugly from a supposedly wise man, who is certainly old enough not to be so amgry and desperate. Obama unfortunately will have to repeat his answers to those unimportant issues. They're even ressurecting Rev. Wright. What about the republican priest who are defying law and instructing their parishioners to vote for McCain? What about Keating? What about all those rabid acquaintances of McCain's? What about Senators Jesse Helms, Strom Thurmond and Robert Byrd? The list is long... McCain has a lot to explain. He keeps harping on Ayers... Ayers messed up, 40 years ago. These days he is an outstanding citizen. He was was named the Citizen of the Year in Chicago in 1987 for his education work, and is now a professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago.

You will need to inspire the American people, but you must also have a plan in place.

You know what, I hope the O Team is thinking about having Barack's innauguration on the Washington Mall, with huge screens everywhere.

That would really be fantastic.

Obama/Biden 08

Brilliant! Open communication, great strategy! I like your style Obama!

no matter how it turns out, Obama 08 wll go down as the best presidential campaign in history

CHA-ching...putting my contribution $ to work.

Yes working hard! McCain was long long in TN when Obama stayed in the crowd to mingle with undecided voters for at least an hour. THAT ONE got my vote long before the Democratic primary even started.

I don't know about you but I want to keep my employer health benefits.
good riddance Mccain and Palin, you had your chance and you blew it big time. Obama for the win!

Here are a few things that makes a great leader:

Being intelliegent, with good judgement & common sense
Asking others to help out with their expertise
Realizing no man stands alone (work with others)
Accepting that you alone cannot solve all problems
Caring for and really understanding basie human needs
Knowing how to mobilze from athe bottom up

@Hillary Democrat. Do you honestly expect us to believe you are a democrat in support of John McCain. That's not possible, unless you love what he and Palin have been doing this week, presiding over hate rallies, stirring up some very disturbing emotions. That goes against the very definition of a democrat. Google it.

Too bad McCain and Palin were not this democratic
I hope that McCain and Palin realize they need to step up and be *leaders* and denounce this anger in the crowds instigated the last few days by Palin and continuing today and then the media plays it up too!!
Need I remind people we are talking about a black man here
who could easily be targeted by some kook out there
this is a beautiful family we are talking about here
Like michelle Obama said last night people can disagree without being disagreeable and bitter
They both need to grow up and denounce this anger
All it takes is one angry person to get a crowd riled up
I seen that in Ed Henrys piece on the situation room

Pleeeease say it ain't so. We need to just stay the course until election day – why take such a gamble?

The majority of voters will probably be turned off and perceive the program as self-absorbed. If it's poorly received, there's only five days until the election to combat the bad press and move on to something else.

As an avid Obama supporter, I'm deeply concerned.

I can't wait. This is great news. Speak directly to the American people without sharing a stage with the feable one

Hillary Democrat?
I doubt that you are, or you would heed her call to vote for Senator Obama.
By the way, Senator Obama has a job. He is a US Senator and deserves the respect that office affords him.
If you don't like him, at least be respectful of those he represents.
to stkyrce,
Go to the Senator's website and read his plan. It's there for all to see.

Oh and its a long loop that has like two of his ads, then has about his life how he grew up, has pictures of his dad, his mom, his grandparents etc.. has Michelle tell about falling in love with him, a wedding photo, and shows him talking to everyday people.

Tells how he feels and what and why he wants to do about things in America.

Smart campaign. Smart use of dollars and technology. Senator Obama has great ideas and is open to new, creative options. It's what America needs and we need to get away from past ideas and blunders and move on. I'll be watching with interest.

It sure would be nice if bloggers would leave a comment on why this might or might not be a good idea...instead of using it as an opportunity to slam someone – whether it is the Republican side or Democratic. Let's talk about the proposal!

The "rich" Republicans are crying foul because Obama has unlimited fundiung resources?

He could be the next three weeks airtime but he will not be getting our votes. The 'stage strut' doesn't win elections. He has been in the Senate about five minutes before running for president, talk about NO CREDENTIALS, he is it. Obama is dealling in all flash and glitter and we need substance in the White House, seasoned, experienced substance and it will not come with Obama.

The American people are seeing through your attempt to sway this election.
POSERS EXPOSED!

Great. Meanwhile get your smart and compelling wives out there, too. Get them out front, keep them in the news. We need to see more of them.

Hillary Democrat - have you lost your freakin mind?! You are ridiculous, you bitter old bag!

I hope he does something inspiring and memorable with it. It needs to be something big with just days before the election then, electrify the country...

Let's go Obama!

Smart and innovative and I will be glued to the tube.

O/B 08

Lets look into Bill Ayres terrorist and Obamas friend do you know about him? Of course you do.

Do you report it? Of course you don’t!

My, My, If he can do this as he campaign what do you think he will do if he is the President? He will be great!

cmon cnn...

Deb, Allentown,PA
October 9th, 2008 5:52 pm ET

I hope he takes that time to talk about who he intends to ask to be in his cabinet.

He’ll pick Dems, moral Republicans (obviously that leaves out McCain and Palin) and independents. He has proven that he surrounds himself with the best and brightest, and I’d love to see him do this in advance of the election. Can you imagine how many more independents and Republicans he could win over with intelligent, reasonable cabinet picks??

Who cares. BHO is going to loose anyway. He can't tell the truth about himself.

I hope McCain and Palin continue their racist rant because the more they talk, the more people move to Obama's side, keep talking, keep talking keep talking

That sucking sound you hear is the McCain camp crashing.

ObamaBiden 08

@Hillary Democrat...if its NOT OBAMA now there will be no Clinton in 2012...fair is fair...

I imagine his address on the Fox channel to start something like this:

"I appear on this particular network tonite to talk to my fellow Americans that are stuck in Dumbf-kistan. Most of you have ardently supported the current [R] disaster-in-charge for the past two presidential elections, and you are now tempted to follow the [R]ightwing demagoguery you grew up on and blindly vote for John McCain in the upcoming election. Mr. McCain is hoping that you are dumber than asphault and will look at the dreadful failure of the past 8 years and join him in calling it a 'success',.....join him in continuing that 'success' as America's economic life, scientific life, cultural life are returned to the Dark Ages when true conservatives happily roamed the landscape, free to kill who and what they chose. Admittedly, it is a grand vision for those of you that can't think your way out of a paper bag, those of you that rely on the mindless pundits that appear on this network for your ideas.

But returning to reality, returning to the 21st century and the grand dream our forefathers bequeathed to us............."

Now, I might actually turn my TV channel to the Fox network to hear that speech!

If Obama can run our country like he has run his campaign, then we are in good hands.

Way to go Barack, If McShame so chooses to spend his time and money on talking smack about Obama being or paling around with Terrorists then thats his time and his money. Barack decides to spend his time and money on something more productive then my hat off to him. Forget the other garbage, it's nonsense.

I hope that he spends part of it telling voters, particularly new voters and people of color about their voting rights.

The right-wing is already trying to suppress voter turn-out, and it will only get worse over the course of the next three weeks.

My darkest fear is that when they suffer the final defeat, the Republicans will try to use their Federal law enforcement authority to defeat the will of the voters.

He already has like his own network on the SAT CABLE... its named OBAMA and its been going for at least a week that I know of.. and it runs all day long and loops over and over the same message. REALLY COOL!!! Now Obama is in the TIMES!!

Hey, you do what you have to do...

I think it is very smart. I'm not sure of how many $$$ I would put into FOX – such very staunch right-wing viewers. But as we have seen, Obama has employed above board approaches to his advertising and with his adversary.

Sounds like a "I want your vote" speech that shows and tells why "That One!" is the only one!!

Just goes to show ya!!! Who is running the smartest campaign. So exactly WHO is the most qualified????

thats an excellent move...reminding the voters how important this election is. But i dont think FOX will fall for that.

I just wish mccain and those in office leave today and Obama get right on in working away. Why wait 3 more months for more craziness?

Obama has an incredible campaign staff which is further proof of his ability to lead and use good judgement. Obama is the person to lead our country in any crisis and we Americans deserve the best.

Gee I could watch Lou Dobbs blither and smirk about his twisted racist agenda or I could listen to Obama encourage us to make America the place our founding fathers envisioned?.?.?.?

All those poor unfortunate souls attending the Palin ralies are ignorant and grew up with the stain of racism.

How did Lou get like that? He must have an education to get on national television every night???

Barack will rock the vote. I love it!

I've been busy lately and I haven't gotten a chance to comment on a few tickers:

First of all Obama supporters Listen: this year we have a lot of republican support. Each day I see many of you are calling the republicans lots of names. This is NOT smart. I understand your feelings but I think you should scale back on the name calling. To call the McCain's and Palin's names are one thing (I agree) but calling people names who are actually voting WITH us this year is another. Please think about it. Do you want them calling ALL democrats stupid, etc. WE want and appreciate their support. (I do). Please let's keep it only about the McCain's and the Palin's. There is sure plenty to say about these criminals.

Ticker on Cindy McCain: She is one of the MAIN reasons "John" won't go anywhere. Listen to Ms. "home wrecker" calling out someone for being dirty. I personally do not want to look at someone for the next four years who wears $300,000 outfits for a couple of hours and suggests "she knows what we are going through." She is disgusting in every way imaginable and I hope Obama attacks her credibility right back as I'm sure she doesn't want her dirt to come out the closet. It's plenty there. Mrs. Cocaine. Obama is EVERYTHING McCain wishes he could be except of course, the obvious. It's not Obama's fault you CAN'T win the presidency and that you cheated and lied all your adult life. I'm sure McCain's last words will be "Senator Obama." He is obsessed with Obama. Watch out McCain-hatred can be an awful thing-especially at your age. Bottom line: McCain is ready, willing and UNable to do the job.

Present ticker: Obama keep up the good work. Hopefully, it will all pay off.

I think that could be amazing...but I agree with Wow...30 minutes is a long time in this era of short attention spans, and people might just tire of hearing him and be put off.

Bravo Obama!

What a wonderful idea. I can't wait to hear him speak to us about his his plans for a better America. Good luck and Godspeed. Looking forward to seeing you in the White House come January.

Obama and Biden in 08' and 12'

Good ! I can't wait to here what he has to say-go Obama !!!

"THAT ONE" is the one.

Could American people vote for Obama a Muslim in the primary school record shows his religion is Islam. Obam is a popular last name of Muslim people after Muhammad?
I vote for Mc.Cain not for a man who doesn't salut the American flag and runs for an American President.......

This is great. Obama needs to be more on the offensive. I agree with peggy, I think Obama has a better campaign machine on the ground, better organized and consistent. Obama has not once detracted from his overall stragedy and message, while Hillary Clinton adn John McCain have both changed their campaign slogans many times, but has fallen short.
The fact that Obama has remained a cool customer through out this economic issues shows he can be a true leader under fire...he has my vote.

I love President Obama!

Fox... That's interesting. Probably the only base where he still can scoop up some voters. I'll bet the 7% undecided are Fox viewers with TWO braincells.

Democrats: Want to make sure the McCain/Palin nightmare goes away? Vote. Make sure you go to the polls or vote absentee. But vote. Registered Democrats by far outnumber registered Republicans. So make sure you vote, and make sure you get your friends to vote. If they haven't registered, and there's still time, then get them to register and then get them to vote. Offer to drive them. Hold an election day party and bring a crowd of friends to the polls with you. This is especially true for you high school and college Democrats. Don't blow this off. Your future is at stake...

It's going to be all of 24 hours before McCain will buy thiry minutes from Fox Noise. He has no creativity and copies everything Barack does.

Obama/Biden

turn people off!? It is sickening, like a scared, traitor rabbit. How much lower can he stoop? Come on, cnn, play this one up, big time! Still haven't read the truth on this liberal news organization concerning the real facts about Obama and Ayers, Obama and Odingo, etc.! The only trustworthy man running for president needs to finally call it like it is! I refuse to be one of the Obama lemmings!

Because we have the money to achieve our goals !!!The smartest campaign ever in AMerica !!! Obama you have already changed America !

I feel it deep in my bones and in all reflective thinking as well: Obama will go down in history as one of America's most honest, most caring, most industrious and creative Presidents in solving our nation's problems and in uniting the people of America and bridging divides. God bless you Obama in doing so God bless America. I feel blessed and joyful to be part of this historical moment of hope in this very difficult time in America. Obama/Biden '08.

Why hasn't someone picked up on McCain's comment that he aimed at Obama in the second debate: "this is no time for on-the-job training" ? Surely that is a solid point that Obama could throw back at McCain in the next debate, as it applies much more to Palin than to Obama.

Wise, intelligent, smart and right time to execute.
Thats what America needs in president.

Great idea! I wish he woudl spend the time perhaps with the help of Warren Buffet explaining to the American people exactly why our economic structure is collapsing. Most people do not understand. True we are all angry and feeling betrayed. Hanging all the investment bankers and hedge fund managers is not the solution. We also need a full understanding of the $700 billion rescue package. In addition why is it necessary for the government to OWN the banks? Why is it necessary to have both plans in the works? This seems excessive to me. Thank you.

This is what a leader does. I can't wait to see Obama sit down in front of America in a time of crisis and talk to us like adults. How refreshing!

Looks like somebody has money to burn . . . . this is really getting scary.........smart campaign, clean campaign questionable . . ACORN?

Great idea! Just another fine move from the Obama campaign.... the campaign that doesn't need to play the dirty games.

That is why obama is the candidate of the furture. his campaign embodies that this nations best days lay ahead

that's a fantastic idea. I can't wait to see what he'll do with it.

Love it...this is exactly what is needed...talk to America. They are hungry for a real leader.

Obama/Biden '08

I'll be watching!!! Has this been done before?

Very smart!!!!!!!!!!! That man might just be our best president ever. All jokes aside Obama will be the next one president that is great..........

YES, this is the kind of president we need. Someone who is innovative and always looking for new and exciting ways to get the task done.

I love it.

Obama/Biden 08

Wow. I just gave another donation to his campaign when I read this. I know that if he will use my donation dollars effectively I can trust this man to know what to do with my hard earned tax dollars. Barack the Vote!!

Obama has spent way too much money on this campaign. I guess that is one way to put all those welfare checks to work.

As an Bi-racial American....Obama is what the country and the world needs. He will restore our standing in the world, for the world will look at us and that we have a leader that TRUELY REPRESENTS what we are about....DIVERSITY. The statute of liberty, and Elise Island are signs of the "olden-days," OBAMA will be what we are today. A Nation that is one....THE UNITED STATES of AMERICA.

wow...what an arrogant

so he is trying to buy the whitehouse and the office he is seeking. If he cares so much about the poor why doesnt he take that money he is using to buy time on tv and give it to charity or to help out the poor in this tiem of crises. I hope thsi backfires on him

I am Canadian. I think Obama is amazing i am so inspired.

Well I dont have much but let me give my little 15 dollars to support the cause! Obama 08

5 Days before the election. I wonder what he is planning to do. If it leaks out, lets see if McCain copies – showing his true maverick side.

The Obama Era Has Begun.

I am in love with Obama lol. I love how his mind works, he's always one step ahead, this is a man who has proven he has the great judgement and he knows how to manage his time and resources and put them to good use. I know he is the best man to lead this country. He has surrounded himself with intelligent and responsible people, this is why he will succeed and this is why he is the best person for the job!

Obama/Biden 2008-2016!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow! This is what we call an exemplary campagn. I hope the airtime will help to reverse some of the hate and lies that Palin has been peddling around during republican rallies

Too much of airtime for one or two points to drive down will bore audience, my advise is that it should be broken into 5 to 10 m9nutes stratas to make it effective.

Wow...some economic crisis!

That One is great,,,,,go Obama I cant wait for Nov,,,all my family already voted for you.

Whoa! I'm voting for the SMART GUY!

I'd like "That One" to be the next president of the U.S.A. !!!

OBAMA CAN SHOW OFF ANYWHERE HE LIKES WHY NOT.
SINDY McCain you are a husband snacher, how on eath women of america can vote for McCain a cheater , unfaithful , living your wife who shed her blood 3 times to make you a dad. selfish gitz. and you know what our god is revenging for this woman who was left on the wheelchair. time is up god is gonna fix McCain on the 4th for you darling, my heart is with you. He will be disgraced for you darling !!!this world is heaven and hell, we pay everything here before we die!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"THAT ONE" has my vote because he is a very intelligent person who clearly knows how to surround himself with the most brilliant people in any field He has ran one of the most impressive political campaigns in history and that says a lot about how he will govern this country.
Vote OBAMA/BIDEN '08

McSame has proven one thing. He knows nothing about economic issues. One moment he claims that the economy is strong. Then he panics and suspends his campaign for about 24 hours, rushing back to Washington so he can impede efforts to address the economic crisis. Now he unveils a half-baked scheme to pump incalculable billions into the failing banks.

McSame lacks the steady hand and good judgment that we need in the Presidency. America will choose a team that has good judgment and will be able to steer our economy out of the Bush-McSame disaster. America will choose Obama-Biden.

Great idea! Way too many people are telling me that "they just don't know anything about Obama" Which is when I ask them if they expect the info to just materialize on their kitchen table? All the information they need is available to them, they just don't bother to look. Well, hopefully this 1/2 hour of television will inspire them.

HAVE AT IT, BARACK!!!

Smart !!!! Go Obama, I am so sick of the hate coming at of the Mccain camp..Its hate and their getting the crazys out... Its sick just sick, Mccain/Palin are the shady ones...
Vote Obama/Biden 08

Continue the hard work. I will continue to help as much as I can

Goes to show how a campaign run from "the bottom up" works so much better than one run from "the top down". I think that also applies to other things, like say economics....

I hope it's to announce the funeral arrangements for the failed McCain/Palin campaign.

GObama '08

smart man .obama an epitome and embodiment of wisdom.

Awesome! I'm happy to hear that my three $25 contributions in the past year (after never supporting a campaign before) are contributing to Obama's ability to get the word out. I would give more now if I could.

Obama/Biden 2008

Georgia Girl, you mean "The One", now wait for McSame to try and do the same thing. You know he tries to copy everything!!!!

Spending Those Foreign dollars before The Feds move in on him

I hope it's about his plans for America and his solutions for the current economic issues. McCain did have a plan for the mortgage crisis. It's not perfect, but he is on the right track. I'm a Dem and still keeping my options open.

Go home to Chicago and be a community organizer...we need experience now in these uncertain times not a smooth talker. We can not trust Obama..... McCain now and Hillary in 2012

If he talks to us as americans with ideas and a steady hand showing leadership like FDR's fireside chats, and not talk down to us, I think this can only be a plus. Hopefully McCain doesn't buy 30 minutes and talk about nothing but how scary Obama is.

Obama is the best thing that has happen to the Democratic Party in over 50yrs .

This man is what America needs. Let's all get behind him and move forward!

Money can buy you anything, when you have hollywood millionares throwing charity events for your campaign. This is a career achievement, not a concern for country. And his time in senate has shown that. All of a sudden the Senator wants to change the nation. He made the same promises when running for senate, yet his record shows no accomplishements then, and if voted to be President wont show anything after either.

And thus, the final nail in McCain Campaign Coffin is driven.

30 minutes is a LONG time to talk to us. I hope he has some visual aids to help solidify what his tax plans and health care plans actually look like compared to McCain's. I'm a visual learner, so I know others must be as well, and it would be helpful to see a side-by-side comparison of where the two stand. And if Obama could let us know who his economic team will be should be elected, I think people who "doubt his experience" would find that comforting. This will be interesting . . .

I think the more information the better. They are a smart campaign and love the job they are doing. Just as long as it is informative I think it will do no harm. Nicely done Obama campaign!

I look forward to watching these spots.

Go Obama! Bring peace, comfort and prosperity to the nation and spread it to the rest of the world.

We need you as President to clean up George Bush's mess because John McCain would just sweep it under the carpet and keep it hidden from the American people.

No, I'm not drinking Obama's Kool Aid. I am an intelligent person looking at the issues and the facts knowing full well that Obama is no way perfect but John McCain is too out of touch with the issues facing America today!

It will be interesting to know what happens if Obama's message is aired on Fox...wonder how many of Fox's viewers will change the channel in disgust.

McCain is already screwed over electorally. Just look at the map. Start with Bush-Kerry 286-252. Obama has Iowa +7 and New Mexico +5. The he just has to win ONE out of Nevada (5), Colorado (9), Indiana (11), Ohio (20), Missouri (11), Virginia (13), North Carolina (15), and of course Florida (27). He only needs ONE, and he's polling ahead in most if not all of them.

I think this is a smart move After all the hate rhetoric coming out of the McCain/Palin campaign, we need Barack Obama to talk to the poeple and calm them down. I am 75 and have never experienced such a divisive campaign, and particularly with so many new young voters coming on board. We should be ashamed as Americans for the vitriol being expressed and fed by the media,

What an incredible campaign. Obama just shows every day that he is ready now to be our next President and I can't wait. What a relief it will be to get the neocon thugs out fo the WH.

Methinks Obama's got something to say about his plans on the economy, energy, foreign policy, domestic policy and the like, uninterrupted and fireside-chat like.

I'd also guess that he's got the goods on McCain and Palin, and he may or may not choose to turn them both into roadkill.

Here's your October Surprise, America – McCrook and Caribou Barbie are officially toast, and no amount of spin by Tucker Bounds will save the GOP.

Considering the number of mindless TV-watchers among our voting electorate, this is clearly a great idea.

Maybe to announce his Cabinet?

A C O R N

Please people open your eyes

john mccain is going crazy and mad now. he has lost .

Way to go Obama

Obama needs to cut through the finish line with a renewed message of hope. His is spending too much time attacking John McCain. There is no need for that.

Wow, we are going to get a STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESS before election day. Who's arrogant?

Maybe he can have his fake presidential seal in the background.

The economy may suck, but I'm still too proud for a handout.

Good Luck America when we say hello to "Socialism".

Our new allies in the world: Hugo Chavez, the Castro Brothers, and that Iranian president (you know, that one).

Smart move from the Obama campaign..... I hope he uses the that time wisely, I hope he talks about his policies and what we can hope for under his presidency and not waste the time talking about John Mccain or George Bush. I believe Obama will be a great president and he is capable of getting us out of this mess we in. He doesn't act like he knows it all but instead he seeks from people who does know before he reacts unlike John Mccain hotheaded.

Obama/ Biden 08

It is the steady determined measured pace of Obama which has convinced me that he willbe a great president.

McCain used to be a boxer in the Navy right? If that's true then McCain's campaign just got K.O.'ed

I'm sending $40 more to Obama – I wanna see what he's gonna show!

That is president Obama for you.

Watch Mcwhoever follow the leader

Obama/Biden 08

He is buying the vote. Where do you think he is coming up with this money from. Not the average 10 to 25 dollars giver. Think. With Pelosi and Obama, ==socialism . First he tried Acorn. How ironic 105 percent sign up in Indianapolis, which that is fraud right there. 5000 fraud applications in Lake County Today. And then today it came out about his connections to Kladi(mis-spelled),(Arafat Plo) Obama said I do know and that he says someone I know, He had a fund raiser for him. What are these connections to Obama, corrupted people, Ayers, Dohrn, Rezko, and Auchi and Wright. These are his friends. I am a democrat and with friends like that no vote for me. If mom or brothers or sister or dad or friend had these people for friends would it not bother you at all. wouldn't you have your doubts.

My fellow Americans, get ready. We are finally going to have a leader who is articulate, intelligent, organized, diplomatic, respectful, logical. We are welcoming in a brand new era; one in which we can redirect our common goals as a nation. I'm so proud to have the opportunity to vote for Barack Obama. He will offer us all a stake in our nation's future. We can all become empowered again. With a great leader, and stong work ethic, we can bring our nation back to the forefront in the global economy. I, for one, cannot wait to hear what he has to say in this 30min network broadcast. I am looking forward to his first address to our country. Bush's speeches are so cringe-worthy. The guy can't even speak English, let alone string together a logical thought. Obama is the leader we DESERVE.

Peggy, methinks you make a great point. Very smart allocation of resources.

barack's campaign = powered by THE most powerful lobbyists in this nation, THE PEOPLE!

make good with my donations, Mr. President!

I've already bought the popcorn.

Shock and Awe has begun...RNC get really ready...

It will show his REAL concern for the people...Finally, someone will be in the White House that can understand what is going on and someone that will be on OUR SIDE!!! We don't need another friend to drink with..We need a family member who looks out for our future!!

GO OBAMA/BIDEN 08-12

very smart move mccain is almost out of money.let"s put a nail in mccain coffin.and send him back to arizona

Dear Lord. It's the smartest move I've ever seen.

Love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't wait for the show. Maybe I should donate a few more bucks so he does not run out before the show.

Obama/Biden 08

Makes me happy that I made another donation yesterday.

Obama couldn't meet with McCain nationwide for 10 town halls with unscripted questions from the public but he can buy time to lecture the American public. This is no different from his Denver speech. All about him. Maybe he will have Dodd, Frank, Raines, Johnson, Pelosi and Reid on with him so they can explain Freddie and Fannie at the kitchen table! All con artists and liars

That's my donations at work! Go Obama!

Perfect – I like this man, he has stile and charisma. You want to take a bit? McCain is coming too.

TIME to show the world, not just our cnn followers, what Obama is REALLY about! Great move! May just have to watch Fox for 30 minutes on the 29TH, if my remote will tune in!

That is great, but he needs to address the economic issues now. In a more clear and pedestian manner so that regular people can understand and see the positive sides of his economic proposals. Hopefully he does that before the next Presidential Debate!

Obama/Biden 08

Great move!
btw, McCain is NO maverick, he been hangin' with GWB like 2nd testicle!

Obama has to do this to combat all the

FREE AIRTIME

McLost and Pitbull get everytime they utter a new slime attack against Obama.

It's pathetic how everything Palin says gets FREE AIRTIME 24/7.

Yes! Sounds like another major speech. I have been studying Abraham Lincoln lately, and this guy reminds me so much of him!

Check out some of the similarities between Barack Obama and Abraham Lincoln, and you will see – no wonder the Senator from Illinois announced his underdog candidacy from Springfield.

Obama's sense of history and OUR place in it is truly inspirational.

I think it's great he's buying air time. Gives those voters who may yet still be undecided to knock out the whole, "I don't know enough about him" excuse out of the park.

Acorn? Obama's Nutzi.. An equivelent of Adolf's Natzi...

Wow, I am not surprised. I just hope that if the need arises, Obama will see fit to fight back with fire as well as issues. After the hate smear level attacks from the WHOLE McSame camp, it will be refreshing to see Obama hammer home the issues that matter to the American People. But I also think that the last debate stirred the McBush camp to get even nastier. They have not a leg to stand on, and they know it!

ANYBODY WATCH HOW OBAMA'S REPS ARE FINALLY KNOWING HOW TO HANDLE FOX NEWS REPS?..REMEMBER YOU HAVE A MIKE TOO AND WHEN THEY HEAR FALSEHOODS OR .MAKE YOUR POINT FORCEFULLY BUT MAKE YOUR POINT,LIKE GIBBS DID TO HANNITY.I HOPE SOMEONE IN OBAMAS CAMP KNOWS THAT

Its obvious that Obama is going to put the final nail in the coffin right before Americans go to the polls. It's going to be a 1-2 punch against McCain between the final debate and the television blitz. Obama's going to let the tigers out!!! I'm sure he's been planning this strategy all along.

good for america

This shows how organized Obama is.....He would make an excellent president, given the chance......

"That One" is running a SMART campaign. Future campaigns will no doubt be studying "This One".

It already turns me off. I lived in Caracas, Venezuela in the late 90's early 2000 and it sounds eerily like Hugo Chavez. Scary.

Time to put the records straight Mr. Obama!

Show America why you deserve to be President! And show Amercia how much Lies have been told about you by the digraceful, desperate, republican campaign!

Bye Palin. Bye...........

See you McBush back in the Senate if you can still remember your name after this election.

30 minutes? Wow

Sounds like someone has a game plan.

Obama is the obvious choice in this presidential election! I don't think any one has all THE answers, after all we're in uhcharted territory, but I believe he is VERY intelligent and will surround himself with the best minds to deal with this crisis. We need sound judgement, not erratic, impulsive decision making.

OBAMA/BINDEN 08'

What a smart guy. Smart campaigning! I've been rooting for him since about January. I hope this new strategy will really pull those battleground states over that hill towards our future President of the United States: BARACK OBAMA!!!!

OBAMA-BIDEN 08!

How much will an Obamarosa administration cost the taxpayer? According to a recent CBS News article, the Obama plane smells like a Mumbian sewer. Removing the Obama family stench from the White House may just prove impossible. It may just be necessary to rebuild. Is that the change Obama is talking about?

Plans appear to be well thought out.
Shows again who is ready to be president and who is not.

Obama/Biden '08 '12

Way to go Obama. Way to go!!!

Obama/Biden '08

Cool

Hey, McCain, Iv got news for you,

"That One" has a name, and we call him: MR. PRESIDENT!

This man and his campaign are SO brilliant!! I'm so impressed with Obama, especially because he has said since the beginning that he was going to run a smart, HONEST campaign and so far, he has. A man with integrity. McCain started off being a real good man, a man with morals and values but somehow, he has lost all that was good. I blame it on the lure of power. Poor man.

And now, to the future!! Go Obama! Yes We Can!

Thank you. I am so proud of Obama/Biden. To this so called Black Democrat voting Republican, so what you voting for McCain/Palin; you"re a buster, playa hater, you know what you really are!!

Good idea. I'll have to write more about his media work.

Wow
Strong candidate , strong leader, good campaign, he is teh next president for 8 years

This is great news. A chance to get out there and present himself as he is. Answer all the questions about Ayers and put that crap to rest.

I wonder if McCain will show up so he can continually walk behind Obama like he did while Obama was responding at the Nashville debates. You'll note that when Obama was finished speaking he went back to his stool and remained there!

Just kidding, of course, but here is where Obama lays the smackdown on Grumpy POW and Caribou Barbie!

It's great strategy from perhaps the smartest presidential campaign team we may have ever seen. Much smarter by the way than Karl Rove, who simply resorted to sleaze to get 50.1 percent of the vote. That kind of strategy really doesn't require much smarts–just a great deal of moral bankruptcy.

WOW! The Obama campaign never ceases to impress! This is a brilliant and unprecedented move! Kudos

Hopefully he will discount all the false and hateful allegations that have been launched at him from the McCain campaign during his speech !

To all the people who are trying to defend obama and say he isnt socialist..you obviously are blind. Obama clearly has socialist ideals. Universal healthcare (Healthcare for everyone) The government is gonna do this, the governments gonna do that. That is socialism. Whenever you give everyone everything and control what people can have and cant have, that's socialist, and ur simply a liar if you can't agree with that.

I'm sending him more money this afternoon.

you are a genius mr. Obama... I love it!

No mention of Bill Ayers in this story either I thought this was a news site oh well

WOW! The Obama campaign never ceases to impress! This is a brilliant adn unprecedented move! Kudos!

The pen is mightier than the sword
With Obama, the emphasis will be education of children to prepare them to face the world, but with Mc Cain we need to prepare them to go to war that he still want ot fight because he is still pissed off about his prisoner of war days. He wants us all to pay.

I support THAT ONE !!!!!!

O B A M A....
O B A M A....
O B A M A....
O B A M A....
O B A M A....
O B A M A....
O B A M A....

Please use this time to say that Americans are disgusted with what the Republicans have done to and with our suffering Nation. And what does the next Republican Emperor offer? Lies, negative attacks, pandering and incompetance. His new plan (stolen from Hillary) to buy all the Nations Bad Mortgages. Is just another shamefull ploy for the Republicans to Bail out their Billionaire Corporate Banker Masters.
McSame wants to give these Corporate Crooks, 300 Billion more tax dollars to cover their loses caused from their own greed and avarice.
And what did these Corporate scum do with the last Bail Out tax dollars. A bunch of them flew to a Luxury Resort and blew 400 Thousand Dollars to include 23 Thousand Dollars in Manicures.
This is McInsane!!! Enough America !!! Please Enough!!

I can not wait to go vote for Obama.

He has the right healthcare plan, economic plan, energy plan, tax plan, and education plan.

Go Obama !!!

I am trying to temper my excitment, the fact that George was elected (sort of) then reelected still baffles and kind of sickens me so can't put anything past the elecorate.....

what happened to my comment

Obama please buy some time 5 or 10 min be the next debate to straighten out Mrs McCain with her distortions of your votes she's no better than Palin

outstanding. in that one half hour, he will have his own town hall meeting, a unique opportunity for people at the last minute to hear his voice and see his presence. And it will be a great reminder to all of us that we need to get out and vote. Plus, he can address all of McCain's negative nonsense.

Very aggressive stuff!

Good move!

This will be a great opportunity for him to not only make a reasoned statement about whatever the situation is closer to the election (it seems to be changing on a daily basis, mostly for the worse as far as the economy is concerned) but also to address logically and thoughtfully whatever last-minute Swift-boating gets pulled out of the GOP (or 527s) hats in a last ditch, desperate attempt to smear Obama and swing any as-yet-undecided voters. Very, very smart. This should be far more effective than whatever defense can be mustered in a one-minute debate rebuttal. I don't think Obama has been very good at defending himself or his record when he's attacked in the debates – partly because a nuanced answer requires more time than he is given. Most viewers seem able to recognize this, and everybody knows about factcheck.com now, so it doesn't seem to have hurt him much. I wonder, though, whether anyone truly against him will bother to watch the half-hour spot. On the other hand, it doesn't really matter because they've already made up their minds.

……………….JOHN……………….MCCAIN ……………….IS ……………….MORE ……………….CLUELESS………………. THAN BUSH……………….

I am going to send him another modest contribution today.

I love this idea. It gives him the chance to connect to voters late in the game. He just needs to use it wisely.

Awesome.

It is refreshing to see a candidate willing to connect with people. Obama appeals to our desire to evolve as Americans; to move past racism to reconciliation and trade selfish individualism for a culture of interdependence with individual accountability.

I think we are better people than John McCain gives us credit for being. He appeals to what makes us afraid and ashamed, but that is the legacy of our parents. We have learned some things, among them that prejudice and fear-mongering diminish us as a nation.

I don't believe McCain is a racist, but I do believe he is willing to capitalize on race-based fear in others. He doesn't deserve to serve as President of these UNITED States if he is willing to divide the country to get there.

I think the half-hour of network television is money well spent. I think it will settle once and for all that Obama is a leader interested in leading, as opposed to a politician interested in getting elected to an office.

It is a courageous move.

I pray Obama will be safe, we need him to lead us! Palin & McCain should hang their heads in disgrace for the dirty disgusting and dangerous tactics and slander that they have been throwing. Even IF they would win, the have lost the respect of many.

The problem for McCain and Palin, I think, is that they either can't or won't discuss the economy in any meaningful way, and that's what people want to hear about. On the other hand, they're fixating on trying to paint Obama as risky at best and a terrorist at worst. Not only is that not addressing the issue that's on the minds of many Americans, but it's bringing out people with some truly hateful attitudes, and neither McCain or Palin are doing anything to distance themselves from these folks.

If you want to see what I'm talking about, watch this video made by a blogger interviewing people at a McCain rally in Ohio.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjxzmaXAg9E

While I don't think that a majority of McCain supporters hold these views, these people who are calling Obama a terrorist are growing more vocal, and they aren't doing McCain any favors.

OBAMA IS FANTASTIC. KICK BUTT.

Cool Beans!!!

Go OBAMA! He can tell McCain it's over.

Buying time on Faux will be a waste buy it on CNN.

Katie Couric burried it for McCain/Palin on CBS

OBAMA for president. GO OBAMA

Woohooot!!!

I am SO glad this is what my hard earned donations are going to!!!!!!!!!!

I am going to donate again RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHERE IS CAFFERTY?????????????????????????????????????/

Smart move....buy the air time early so you can respond to the 11th hour charges that McCain and the RNC will undoubtedly hurl.

you people need help, according to Obamas tax plan small business making 250k a year are going to be hit with higher taxes.. That means almost every small business that has employees will get hit! YES what is 250k a year when your in business. Subtract all your expenses,payroll,employees,taxes etc etc if your business doesn't bring in 250k a year than consider yourself out of business!! Wake up do you have a clue as to what that will do to our economy?? Taxing all investmet capital, capital gains taxes, Do you smart people have any idea what that will do to investment income, investment capital for all businesses. You Obama supporters think that by getting your measly 1000 tax rebate a year will help the economy better wake up, go to school,learn something about how the economy works!!

Good Job Obama and very good thinking. You will win for sure. No one can stop it now Go Go Go all the way

try to imagine a scenerio in which obama loses this election....i know...i can't either....

obama/biden 08/12!!!

OBAMA/BIDEN 08'
OBAMA/BIDEN 08'
OBAMA/BIDEN 08'

THAT ONE.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He shouldn't was his money on FAUX NEWS....

30 minutes. Not short sound bites, but time for a major address on a wide range of issues ... kind of like a short "State of the Union" address without interruptions for supporters' applause, moderators' attempts to redirect discussion, or opponents' attempts to distract.

It's a big gamble with a public whose attention span rarely lasts more than 30 seconds. It takes guts. I hope it turns out to have been a good idea.

Sounds good. Smart way of managing ad dollars.

Please clear the air of the moose flatulence!

Hopefully, Obama will announce his economic advisors and take control of this aimless government we have now.

No leadership from Bush or "Have Patience "Paulson. McMoron lurches from pillar to post like a dodderin' old fool, and you betcha' Miss Moose Anal Sphincter babblin; aimlessly.

Hopefully, "That One" will step into the leadership void and make some suggestions that the Shrub will take.

Great! I hope he is the next president. I am tired of MCCAIN's" my friends " and his silly irrelevant attacks. As an independent voter I am offended that he thinks I am stupid and can be scared into voting for him..Sorry I am going for "that one"

He will be the model of how all campaigns will run in the future. Because he took it to a whole nother level.

Last time i checked , its not a crime. The man has run an excelent campaign and its a tip of the iceberg. That is how you know an organised individual. I am confident he will do a FANTASTIC job as President.

God Bless America

I think that it is incredible that Mr. Obama has surrounded himself with such great people who has always kept him two steps ahead of John McSame. Our time is now and we must take advantage of this moment.

I heard that CNN. Hillary Clinton. The Woman who let down her Country out of, Pure-Jealousy. I would never have believed it Possible.. But it's happened....

I will be making another campaign donation tonight, it's been tough to give the max allowed but I consider it money well spent. Barack Obama has run a skillful and dignified campaign for 19 months despite the slings and arrows. I have no doubt he will run the country the same way.

If I were a Mccain supporter I would be demanding a refund.

excellent! i was hoping he would do this. he will have the chance to speak to the american people in a sustained format that allows him to spell out who he is and where he wants to take the country. this is in contrast to mccain strategy that seems to be trying to produced as many decietful and false sound bites as possible and say them often enough so that people don't pay attention to the man behind the curtain.

This one is just smart.

Spread the word "my friends"!

"That one" is THE one!

I think Obama continues to show that he has AMERICA in mind and not himself!!!!!!!!!!

Obama/Biden '08

IT gives Obama a chance to really talk to the american people.

Putting down the hammer indeed.

Barack is talking issues while McCain and co. are firing blanks that didnt work 9 months ago, and definitely wont work now.

I think American appreciate straight talk about policy decisions in a 90 second ad, with specific details, more than black and white scare mongering about someone's character. Because thats all the GOP are doing at this point.

Obama is busy doing what it takes to win an election. While McClueless and his clueless sidekick are spreading negativity. In the end, intelligent and decent Americans will make the right choice.

OBAMA/BIDEN 2008

That One will be your next President

I'm a strong Obama supporter...I hope that 30 minutes is packed full of specifics on moving the country forward. If it does, it will be a landslide victory.

"That One" is working hard to $$$BUY$$$ the election.

As cool as the other side of the pillow...

Just keep it humble!
Obama 08

Im waiting for McCain to do the same.... if he can just remember what Television is. Maybe thats what he was looking for during the debate, instead of "puddles" his lost dog (as The Daily Show so eloquently put).

Excellent campaign strategy. I hope voters that are considering doing nothing or think that their votes do not count are inspired to excercise their right to vote.

Well, Sen McCain it appears that Sen Obama does know the difference between a strategy and a tactic. On 5 NOV 08, a tactic should be clear to you.

Obama/Biden 08

YEAH, CAN'T WAIT TO WATCH HIM!

This is what all the Candidates have purchase campaign spots on TV in the past. Why should this be any different?

Since when do you recall 'NOT 'seeing campaigning spots on TV just days before any presidential election?

Hollywood must truly be embracing this. Will I be able to do a search for it on my cable box menu? What will it be under–sitcom, docudrama, news, variety, reality?

To everyone who has contributed to either campaign...aren't you proud of where your hard earned money is being spent? Remember that when you can't make a bill payment or buy food for your family. But, then again, you will probably find a way to blame someone else for it.

Obama is preparing for the end game..

Checkmate!!!

This is what I call SHOCK & AWE!!!

I can't wait to see and hear the next president on October 29th! I'm almost certain that McCain will try to purchase airtime now. A typical follower McCain is...

THAT Leader is different, THAT Leader is change, THAT Leader executes, THAT Leader has vision, THAT Leader is genuine, THAT Leader is creative AND smart, THAT Leader shows courage, THAT Leader is calm and strategic, THAT Leader/Liberal is FORWARD thinking...

I want THAT ONE!!!

Hey, McCain was right about the surge...

Obama should give him a position as a joint Cheif of Staff.

Fox might not be able to air it if conflicts with the World Series.

from a media buying standpoint, it's a good move reaching a nationwide audience days before they're set to make a major decision. sources say his most successful commercial was a 2-minute piece where he was talking directly to the camera detailing his plans. this could succeed in really telling his story. good tactic in overall strategy.

Smart move!!! Probably is to talk about that NASTY stuff that the caribou barbie and the old man are spreading all over... lies have short legs!!!
Or maby is to tell the american people about Palin relation with the AIP, wich her husband was a member til 2002 and she gave the open speach this year. OBAMA 2008-2016 !!!

Ardent fan of Obama here, but it will be fodder for the freaks that are afraid of how convincing of a leader he is. The only thing to fear, is fear itself.

Yes, I'm afraid of McCain being president, and I'm even more afraid of it now that I realize I'm afraid of it. Because not much scares me!

I heard they crossed a pitbull with a Sarah Palin. Turns out that it bites you, leaving you with a nasty lipstick stain (fortunately no blood) and then runs for help. If it really gets psychotic, it shoots you from a helicopter. Not to worry though, it seldomly leaves it's house.

YEA!! YEA!! I love it!! Whatever one might say about Obama this man is sharp and he surrounds himself with sharp, smart people. Unlike old man mccain and his raving lunatic vp pick!

That's a true man of vision....ooooh McCain is going to be so steamed about this.HEHE

WHY SHOULD IT TURN YOU OFF, OBAMA HAS TO RUN SMART NOT ERRATIC CAMPAIGN AND HE IS.

Sounds like a good way to put yourself out there right before people hit the ballots. Get those last few fence clingers to your camp. Smart move, I'll be watching

I'M VOTING FOR THAT ONE!

YES WE CAN!

"...but in the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope." Barack Obama

So brilliant! Has this ever been done before? I'm only 21 so I don't have a long history of elections to look back on.

Time for Americans that really do put "country first" and demand an end to the attacks on Obama's patriotism. No matter what side you are on this is inflammatory and untrue. America politics have become pathetic as the country sinks into recession while the McCain camp sinks lower and lower into third world politics.

Time to give the final verdict................................keep on keep on President Barack Obama....................the white house is in sight and we got your back

GAME OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OBAMA/BIDEN 08

With Obama as President, he will lead us in a new direction and he will let the American people know the issues and what's going to be done about it as they occur.

Obama will not be like BUSH, who only comes out from under the bed once or twice a year to just blab in front of the camera, making no sense whatsoever.

Obama will be very honest and open with the people.

I hope he doesn't think he needs the extra time. It would be a terrible shame if he did something to himself.

wow...if only it get's the right message down to the people...

it sure would galvanise folks into action...

change is comming and it's ring all over the world...not just for america!

Looks like "That One" is going to win.

I think "THAT ONE" is running a well managed campaign and staying on subject. It is clear he has surrounded himself with smart people and that is a sign of the level of his own intelligence to do that. A really smart person seeks out smart people.

I think there is a lesson to be learned here by Senator McCain.

should be interesting... hope it is well-recieved... i'll take what he says in thirty minutes over what mccain would say in 30 days any day.... can't wait.... obama/biden 08/12

We'll be looking forward to seeing every last minute of those 30 minutes..........

THEN..........it's going to be a REAL PLEASURE to CAST OUR VOTES on November 4th!

OBAMA / BIDEN 08

But why include Fox? People who hadn't made up their minds on who to vote wouldn't be tuning into Fox right now, right?!!

wow...i am hoping that at least on one of the networks, americans will get the opportunity to see & hear from all four individuals on one stage in same room having a civil forthright and substantive discussion of direction & course each is planning for america and her citizens, what do you think?

-jh-

put the hammer down obama ALL THESE MCCAIN PALIN LIES caint stop you now we the american people have finally woke up we right here in indiana are working hard its past time we put this bunch of lieing idiots out to paster with dow down another 700 ALL MCCAIN PALIN HAS GOT IS SMEAR GOT NEWS FOR YOU IDIOTS YOU ARE OUT OF HERE GO OBAMA LETS MAKE THIS A LANDSLIDE NOV FOURTH

EXCELLENT MOVE. Let the truth be told. OBAMA/BIDEN 08

My first thought is that he will be talking about his plans for his presidency, like a fireside chat, since people say he's aloof and not connecting with voters. I'm sure McCain folks and supporting pundits will call it presumptuous. But if McCain can "suspend" his campaign, why not this?

I guess we will see the October Suprise....Can't wait.
Now watch the copy cat try something like this.

Obama is just the leader we need in our current situation.

This will be the right hook that sends the McCain campaign crashing to the mat.

Pain and Panic needs to suspend their campaign until Obama fixes the Economy.

Obama 08 & 12

Oh someone needs to tell Cindy McCain that Obama cant change shoes with her for a day..he couldnt afford the price of the shoes you wear lol. Gawd, this woman sounds so dumb. Scarey. No wonder her and Palin get along.

I not only expect, but hope that McCain will copy this move by Obama. I believe at the last debate, both candidates displayed a lack of knowledge on the others position on various issues and even though I find the McCain campaign to be endorsing a hateful social policy at their most recent rallies...I still want to give him a chance. Believe me, that is all that he's getting from me. He most certainily will not have my support or my precious vote

McCain is an angry, volitile old man who suffers from EED (Enlarged Ego Disease) He is a man who called the North Vietnamese "Gooks" up until just a few years ago. He backhanded a woman (a relative of a missing soldier in Vietnam) and was written up on charges for it. He is a gambler in every sense of the word. Not to be trusted.

I hope he takes that time to talk about who he intends to ask to be in his cabinet.

He'll pick Dems, moral Republicans (obviously that leaves out McCain and Palin) and independents. He has proven that he surrounds himself with the best and brightest, and I'd love to see him do this in advance of the election. Can you imagine how many more independents and Republicans he could win over with intelligent, reasonable cabinet picks??

I think that will be the time he reveals his real plans in details (because McCain will not be able to scoop up his ideas on time)
Smart moves

This is brilliant strategy. It is amazing how anyone is not a supporter of Obama. I have already contributed to his campaign and I plan on giving more. This is a great use of my money! Thank you and keep up the good work.

Obama 08!

He shouldn't bother with FAUX. All of the others sound great though!

The coming landslide of pathetic whining posts from the "The ONLY thing that matters is the GOP–screw our country" crowd should be hilarious to read. The DEMOCRATIC candidate is CRUSHING the GOP candidate this year. People who put their country first are disgusted with Bush, McCain, and the idiot Barbie Doll JOhnny Fly Boy picked to try to hoodwink women and gullible "blue collar" guys.

Republicans are bleeding..... They never thought anyone had guts to fight all the way. By the way does anyone know if Palin and Stalin have anything in common?? I wonder, let me know.

To "Wow"

Why would media buys turn people off?

This is nothing new and is not without precedent – but right now I am not sure anyone knows what they want anymore - we are just frustrated. My mutual funds and IRA are worth about as much as the paper that I print them on.

LETS GET IT.......
OBAMA/BIDEN 2008 & 2012

Obama is a heavyweight champion while McShame is an old lightweight.

I hope its Halloween and they pull the mask off of Shocking Sarah...

Why not, let McCain and his supporters talk about Ayers, while the economy is going to the dogs under 8 years of republican leadership in the whitehouse.

I've heard enough from both.........enough 'mud-slinging.

A democrat whose tired of hearing them bash each other.

I like this strategy !
The neocon scum will have less time to run swift-boat ads.
Or, better no air time. : )

Obama/Biden 08

I think that is fantastic! Uninterrupted time to address the country about our issues and the new direction of our country!!!!

Hurray! Guess I'll donate some money to the campaign today!!

Keep it up Barack, and don't utilize any of the Hollywood schmucks who like to attach their persona to your campaign. You've done it with the help of tens of thousands of regular people who want to kick the GOP OUT of power.

Great! can't wait.

AWESOME!!

BARACK ME BABY!!!

"THAT ONE" is the MAN!

I agree. I think it's a brilliant move.

And McCain can't counter. His campaign knows NO ONE could stand to listen to him ramble on for a full 30 minutes. Besides, he'd have to stop to take a nap!
Then what? Sarah "I'm a cute hockey mom" Palin gonna fill the rest of the time? UGH! Channels would be switching all over the country once the "old windbag" and the "windtunnel" start talking.

Smart move. Do us proud. Obama/Biden 08

How many will still call him a liar. I got a idea lets get McCain buy some time on TV and tell the truth.......better yet put a lie detector on both and let the nation see who is lying..........

mcsame/palin are loser's!.

no let up until he's crossed the finish line.........

THAT ONE is who I want for President

Obama is at his best when he can logically and reasonably address certain situations...clamly w/o the hysterical crowds that have been a virtual hate machine of late with McCain and that complete joke Palin

YES WE CAN. YES WE CAN. YES WE CAN

smart move.

THE DEMOCRATS ARE GOING TO GIVE UP THE 'GOODS' ON JOHN MCCAIN AND THE GOP!

Im still waiting for the reverend wright ad. Americans have heard all the smears on Obama before, they have nothing new. President Obama only a couple weeks left. Tough it out!

This is great. Very smart thing to do. Now if only those people who keep complaining about not knowing him or believes the dirty politic of McCain/Palin will watch they will see who Senator Obama is.

How much money did Obama raise in September if he can afford a 30 minute national media buy?

What an awesome idea. Everytime I think the other side is moving ahead in anything, you people come through. God Bless you and by the way KUDOS to Mr. Gibbs. I love it when someone can stick the screws to Sean Hannity. When John McCain reaches the gates of hell and finds BinLaden, Sean Hannity should go with him.

I bet McCain wishes he would've left the old money raising political machine behind and depended on Mainstreet Americans to fund him like Obama did. This is great. Take that Washington Republican machine!

Obama/Biden '08!

Brilliant! Obama will talk directly to the country, not through any media filter, and let the voters see for themselves who he is and what he stands for.

One wonders just how huge his fundraising numbers must be from September, eh?

Betcha I know what this all about, could it be to set the record straight for the umpteenth time. Course there willbe those who will not believe, but they will get what they wanted. Now what will they say................my guess is they still won;t believe it.

Wow!!

I only wonder what McShame is going to pull out of his sleeve w/ this fantastic idea Obama's got!!

Hmmm....

THE OBAMA OCTOBER SURPRISE! GET READY REPUBLICANS! YOUR PARTY WILL BE HISTORY AFTER THIS COMES OUT!

Must be payback time!
Fox won't get much...if any....for fair reporting and equal time to both campaigns.

The Unions are purchasing this Air-Time Not the Dems...
4yrs from now, the Unions will be Broke. Wild-Cat strikes will rage the Country.. It;s happen in History all ove the World.. Now it's your turn to....De-value the American Dollar... Your heading for a New Civil War...

Genius. He really is revamping the way politicians should run a campaign.

Good, maybe he can explain to us how it is that he had his political "coming out party" at the home of a terrorist, he served on two boards with the terrorist, joined with the same terrorist in distributing grant money to "re-education" schools and yet claims that he "hardly knows him.

While he's at it maybe he can explain the democrat mindset that says it's ok that this guy(Ayers) was a terrorist and, in fact, why is it that the democrat mayor of Chicago names this terrorist as the city's Man-of-the-Year? What is it with democrats that don't see anything wrong with all of this?

Tell America how McCain and charles Keating caused banks to collapse is the late 80s.

That is exactly what is happening now.

Tell america about McCain's ties to the Arizona mafia and how he married into one.

Tell america about McCain's tie to the Iran-Contra and ayatolla terrorists and guerillas.

Its all over McCain, the fat lady is singing.

Wow - that should be interesting! I'll already have voted by then [by mail, in Oregon] but will look forward to hearing this. And yes, this 66 year old white woman will vote for Obama.

I don't know why McBrain can't pack up and leave with his phoney from Alaska. They both could build bridges to nowhere.

YAHHOOOOO! GOO OBAMA! I'm donating another $50! Take it to them Obama!

Go Obama Go!!! Maybe that's the day when Obama will inform the world that while John McCain was on the "Council for World Freedom" he sponsored gorilla soldiers in the hills of Afghanistan in the 1980's, the same gorilla soldiers that became Al Qaeda and the Taliban. Why is the fact that John McCain was a sponsor and member of a far right conservative orginization that sponsored death squads in Latin America and Afghanistan not a bigger news story already??? John McCain is a sick individual.

Let me remind you the following, as per “The Economist” poll of academic economists:

Which candidate would pick a better economic plan?

John McCain: 13.6%

Barack Obama: 80.7%

No opinion: 5.7%

Which candidate strikes you as having a better grasp of economics?

John McCain: 7.8%

Barack Obama: 80.1%

No opinion/ don’t know: 12.1%

I wander what the McCain camp is doing now. How can they keep the press on them without buying ads.

Go Obama Go!!! Unite Americans to take back this country!

This is leadership. This is taking charge. This is an American Hero.

"This campaign has never been about me; its about YOU!" – Obama

To the commentaries, to the news anchors, to the people of America, some of you ask, some of you speculate, some of you try to guess why? Why are Barack Obama and Joe Biden gaining ground in the polls? Folks its simple, just do as I have done and watch these campaign events for a day or two. Back to back, start to finish. The Obama campaign is firmly connected. They are a positive force, an uplifting force, a make you feel good force. The McCain group is dramatized , doom and gloom. They spread a negative layer so thick, so blue it feels heavy on the soul. Just from the motivational spirit alone with out the issues the McCain camp loses. Then you add this crises to it and the drama that John and Sarah add and even if they had the magic answers they could never really be heard to their full potential. The sarcasm, the doom and gloom and the feel of panic instability and confusion are cringe points that make the polls what they are today and guess what? I'm no pro but its gonna get much much much worse for them because all in all people just want to feel good and the Mcain/Palin ticket cant deliver on that and that my friend is why the polls have shifted and the trend will only get stronger and stronger every single day and guess what? I am a white republican 54 yrs old and I to will vote for Barack because he just to say it simply. makes me feel good about me, my country and he gives me hope. I have gotten to know him and love him with all my heart, I fully predict a landslide, and this man whom came from nowhere has truly earned the place he and his family have in my heart, YES WE CAN! Ken from Calif

Once again, Senator Obama has shown his ability to use the cash his suporters have donated wisely.
For anyone who wonders where all this cash is coming from, I can tell you that most is coming from people like me. 10, 20, 50 dollars at a time. Senator, I will send as much as is allowed by law every time I can afford it. I would rather eat hot dogs for 4 more weeks than go through 4 more years of Republican rule.
We, the people are ready for GOVERNANCE. For a LEADER.
Thank you Senator.

Vote Obama/Biden
(yep, "that one")

Here's a presidential debate I would like to see: one where neither candidate uses their time to bash the other one. I'm not interested in hearing McCain slam Obama or vice-versa. I'm interested in hearing what each candidate will do (not promise, but actually do) to fix the mess that our country is in. I couldn't care less about which campaign can come up with the best dirt on the other. That's tired, useless and unimportant. The United States is facing some of the most major issues it has ever faced (certainly in my lifetime) and it's time for both Obama and McCain to drop the mud and start explaining why they deserve our vote. Not why the other guy doesn't

Very good idea.
In case the McSame camp insist on the path of dirty politics he will have a chance to tell us, the American People what the real thing is.
He can't afford to let these dirty Reps do what they have been doing now for several elections. Fear is no way to win an election.
Issues is the way to go but if the Reps can't win on the issues maybe they should get lost and let some body with love for his country run the show. Not love for the rich friends.
Go Barak, don't take any from those Reps clowns.

what's he going to tell us, is he going to share what he is going to do for America. Well why hasn't he done anything while in the Senate. Why didn't he try to protect the American people before he was running for Senate. What a fraud! Who cares what he has to say, we know he's going to win, and anyone with a brain knows he isn't going to do anything for the American people, that doesn't first do something for him. He cares about what he can get, and nothing else. What did he get from big oil, for their huge tax breaks, we know a criminal helped buy him his home, who knows what big oil gave him.

saying that mccain stands no chance is an understatement....if he really loves this country he would donate his campaign funds to the economic recovery program...instead of wasting it on a lost cause

The scary thing is Mccain camp is trying to have him killed by insinuating he is a terrorist, it is unbelievable the rallies Palin is holding, as people are shouting "kill him" or "terrorist" and all she can do is smile. The most vile disgusting campaign on earth and they are probably still scratching their hate mongering heads as to why they keep slipping away in the polls…

Go Obama!
Let's put this old geezer and his clueless hockey mom sidekick out to pasture!

Thats right Obama, i donated to the camp.... so that we can win

you know how to make the right choices, and this was a really good one...

thats a great way to clean your name from the nasty false attacks of the McCain camp....

Good move Obama/Biden

yeah I'm looking for that.

WEST VIRGINIA IS TURNED BLUE!!!
NORTH CAROLINA IS TURNED BLUE!!!
FLORIDA IS TURNED BLUE!!!
VIRGINIA IS TURNED BLUE!!!
OHIO IS TURNED BLUE!!!
COLORADO IS TURNED BLUE!!!
NEVADA IS TURNED BLUE!!!
NEW MEXICO IS TURNED BLUE!!!
IOWA IS TURNED BLUE!!!

WTG BARACK!!! WTG USA!!!

Obama/Biden in a landslide!

Obama please give me some specifics on the economy, i love you, but i need to hear something more. McCain (R) the republicans cost me 5,000 this month, and your party has not held the leader, Bush,(R )accountable, so there is no way I can vote for you or any republican this year. Bush (R) has done more damage to America than any terrorist could have done, but that was the terrorist plan all along, bankrupt America, and you and bush fell for the lie (Iraq). Iraq war is why America is on the the virge of collapse, not minorities and poor folks. I am now bitter, but , kind of hopeful things can change. final verdict on bush (r) on economics. FAILURE>

I'll be watching.

Obama/Biden 08

Brilliant move! With the last debate being next Weds., Oct. 15, there is plenty of time between then and Nov. 4. He'll be the last word and the last one on everyone's mind going into election week! My husband and I will have voted for the Obama/Biden ticket by then via early voting, but we'll be tuned into Sen. Obama on the 29th, for sure!
YES WE CAN!!

Obama you need to find about this registration crap that is taking place and all the hard work of getting people registred may be in vain if someone or people don't demand to find out if they are truly registred to vote.

Follow the money to ACORN & you wil find lawbreakers!

Fabulous! I only hope this man runs the country like he's running this campaign. Just stellar!

CBS and NBC make sense, but is Fox willing to take the money for a 30 minute block of Obama time? This sounds very interesting. Hope to hear more CNN.

Tell 'em like it is Barack, and in your signature suave way!

Go get 'em.

That One/Biden '08

Obama should do everthing to kick these Republicans and their tricks out of the White house. we need a new perspective in the world.

He has run a smart and brilliant campaign through out with money from ordinary people like us. God willing when he wins, it will be our victory. Finally a Government of the people, for the people, by the people. Stay focused Obama/ Biden.

BIG DEAL. ALL OBAMA IS ,MOUTH AND SHOWBOAT. YOU NAIVE SUPPORTERS FULL OF HATE ARE HIS PUPPETS AND HE IS THE MASTER. THERE IS ONLY TWO THINGS QUARENTEED IN LIFE PAYING TAXES AND DYING. YOU NAIVE OBAMA SUPPORTERS SHOULD GET OUT OF THAT FANTASY LAND YOUR IN. COME TO REALITY WHERE MCCAIN AND PALIN LIVE.

kind of like Chavez's show in Venezuala wherehe sings, dances, and bashes Bush?

Oh boy! 30 minutes of an idiot on TV, telling people how bad things are, yet not saying a single thing about what HE'D do to make them better. Better find some paint to watch dry, I get more useful information from that.

Of course the Obamaholic koolaid drinkers will be watching intently, looking at him dreamy-eyed, and then post how it was the most important 30 minutes ever.

America's being fooled by a failed community organizer, with ties to terrorists and illegal groups, who promises the world but offers nothing.

It'll be a sad, sad day for America if this joker gets in office.

Somewhere there's a village missing an idiot. Someone want to call them and tell them he's running around the country yelling 'Change' and wanting to be the Democrat president?

Exciting. Glad my contributions are going to help put Obama and Biden over the top on Nov. 4. I'll be tuned in to hear what he has to say.

Brilliant, this will give Obama a nice opportunity to counter all the smears being thrown his way and to seal this very needed deal!.
