I'm sure people are going to be saying that this makes Obama unpatriotic, or something like that.

I know the outcome of the world series is far more important than the state of and well being of our country.. but hey, how dare Obama give the fans an extra 15 minutes to stand in line at the concession stands

God forbid baseball fanatics would have to wait an extra 15 minutes... oh yeah, why am I bothering with this, it won't get posted.

Gawd, putting important issues in front of pastimes? How horrible!!

Who cares, what is 15 mins. Get a life and i think that is super what Obama is doing!

If MLB doesn't have a problem letting OBama Speak, why does the GOP? Are they ELITIST? Do they not like Baseball, the National Pastime? Are they questioning the JUDGEMENT of the MLB, while Obama and the MLB made an agreement? Maybe Obama isn't the Elitist, maybe MCCAIN IS! Oh yeah, MCcain has 7 houses and 13 cars, of course he's an Elitist! Last time I checked, OBAMA has ONE HOUSE AND ONE CAR, just like the rest of US. Go Obama/ Biden 2008-2016!

Man, the RNC will jump on anything Obama does and make it out to be the most horrible thing ever. Big deal if the World Series is delayed by 15 minutes. Talk about grasping at straws. So sad.

baseball is dead anyway

sorry barry you cant buy the white house not even with cnn , nbc , msnbc , oprah the americans will see through all , this is a country built on love of gos and country !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MAY GOD WATCH OVER ALL OF US ON ELECTION DAY

CRYSTAL DEMOCRAT OF PENNA

I thought Barry was running for President, not an Emmy.

I love Baseball and Obama, now I wont have to choose!

Ohhh it sounds like the McShame gang is starting to get worried....lash out at ANYTHING!! It sucks getting beat at your own game doesn't it Republicans? You cannot stand the fact that Obama can raise more money from average folks than you can raise from your corporate sponsors! Welcome back to where you belong...the MINORITY!!! You're 8 year experiment darn near destroyed the country!

First off, it's a game 6...the way the Rays are playing it may not even go to 5!

Secondly, this is such blatant whining by the RNC it's not even funny. It's honestly pathetic. Claiming Obama is putting himself before baseball? What a wretched bunch of sore losers.

Acorn & Ayers is much better than Alaska & Arizona.
15 minutes delay is nothing.

The RNC sure knows how to make itself look absolutely petty and silly!

Give me a break–our economy, foreign affairs, and other crises we're facing are far more important than delaying a ball game by 30 minutes. Does the RNC spokesperson really mean to suggest that recreation is more important than working to solve our problems?

Talk about out of touch...oy!

The GOP are a bunch of whiners. Not only are they jealous but to throw in "our pastime" as another way to divide us is rediculous. Is not Obama an American who also enjoy's American's Pasttime???

Enough with the unlying hints of fearmongering, race baiting, and segregation. WE, the American people, are smarter than that!

The republicans are WHINING again .... waa waa waaaaa...

Vote for the adults – Obama/Biden '08

Are you kidding me? The RNC is complaining about a 15 minute delay??? You guys are a bunch of fools!!!

Wow, why didn't FOX just say no to running Obama's TV show????

Fox can just say no, we can't run your 30 minute segment. Right? Sure. So, Obama isn't forcing anyone to delay the game. Fox wants Obama's money, and Baseball wants Fox's money. See how capitalism works? Republicans need to learn about markets and how they work.

Really? The World Series has become a basis for attack. How low can the RNC go?

Whine, whine, whine... Please retire from politics and go back to Arizona!

This man is pitiful! Obama is not McCain's problem, John McCain is his own problem!

UMMMMM WHATS MORE IMPORTANT, THE FATE OF THIS COUNTRY OR A BASEBALL GAME?

A presidential address from our next president!!! Can't wait to hear it. Don't forget to get out there and vote all you Obama supporters, the gains in the polls are nothing if we don't get out there and show them we mean business when we say we want change.

Obama 08/12

Hahah..... AS IF... the RNC would not pull a similar move. It's like the teapot calling the kettle black. Puhlease!!!!! Maybe it's because Obama is an Arab and he does not care about our national pasttime or... is he a terrorist?

Get over it! The game will go on and the fans will have a wonderful time being there.

Always glad to see the RNC recognizes the important issues to jump on.

To Hell with the economy, health care or security. Let's find every distraction we can to argue about instead.

I think Rezko funnelled some funds to the Networks so Obamer could have his show.

STRAW! STRAW!! STRAW!!!

Oh get over yourself RNC. You are grasping at everything aren;t you? You're just mad you didn't think about it yourself. But you know what, even if you did, the country would be booing you guys bc we are sick or all your negativity and we actually welcome Obama's uplifting guidance that will lead us out of the mess that you have put us in. So take you RNC group and your leader (whoever that may be at this point) and go home. We don't want to hear anythign that any of you are saying and we have tuned you out until after Nov 4th.

get over yourselves.... really....

its a stinking game...

these guys are down to throwing rocks and sticks at Obama.

The world series game ISNT gonna put food on my table or heat my house this winter. Grow Up RNC

Baseball = national (American) pasttime
Obama = anti-baseball
Therefore, Obama = anti-American

HA! The Repubs are getting ridiculous. And it's not like Obama's asking them to CANCEL the game, he's asking them to POSTPONE it. FIFTEEN WHOLE MINUTES. A game that may not even happen.
Keep grasping at straws, Repubs, Nov. 4th is almost here and we won't have to listen to you anymore.

Shows what the McCain thinks is more important...a world series game instead of the future of this country. Get over it, and get your priorities straight. No wonder McCain is behind......Obama wants to talk to the American people, and we want to hear him.

aw get over it already! You are just sorry you didn't come up with the idea first.....like most of your ideas you have had to either copy them from Obama or whine about it! I wish the voting was over with already and all this nastiness can just go away. I am so turned off the republican party at this stage that I can't imagine EVER voting another republican into any form of government. How very sad that this party has had to spew such negativity and hatred.

Wow!! we are about to decide who is going to be the next President of the United States of America and we are upset about 15 minutes of a game that may not even take place. Maybe this is why we are in the situtation we are in now. Wake up America!!!

OBAMA IS VERY GOOD, THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES BARACK OBAMA

I would hope people would care more about the election than a baseball game or else we are in big trouble

This from people who flaunted "Hockey Mom" at the Flyers game which was no doubt delayed from it's normal start time to pay homage to her down home charm and outright lies. LOL

Oh please. 15 minutes...big deal. The Republicans are just mad that they don't have the cash to do the same thing.

The same old dispicable comments from the McCain camp

Why is this news? Does the RNC seriously think there will be voters who decide to not vote for Obama or to vote for McCain because the World Series might be delayed 15 minutes? I We have other issues that should take priority here!

And even if people do believe this is actual news, how about "blaming" Fox for buying the 30 minute time slot, knowing that the World Series might be playing? Shouldn't the network be held more accountable for this gaff?

RNC moronically grasping at straws! How pathetic can they get.
Once again way off point, It's The ECONOMY!

BTW:
The last resort of all Failing Republican Campaigns is to energize the base, Ignorant Right Wing Looneys! Republicans are waking up from a long peaceful Bush slumber [Ouch!], to find two pathetic morons [McCain/Palin], publicly displaying a comical megalomaniac love affair with themselves, out of touch with our Nations true issues [it's the ECONOMY!], and engaging in a revolting "McCain First" campaign! That's a tough wake up call, "MY FRIENDS"!
The McCain inept solution is a Slang Talking Power Hungry Junk Yard Dog [Awaiting Criminal Indictment] scampering around the Nation drumming up Racist Bigotry [Wink Wink]. The obvious erratic incompetence of the McCain/Palin campaign provides us evidence enough that they are unfit for any public office. As Americans face the hardest financial disaster in the History of the USA, this is McCain Policy of Change/Solutions/Answers! John McCain / Sarah Palin have no idea what Americans trying to survive face. 401K plans gutted, Unemployment, Foreclosures, Wall Street in the Tank, and the Global Economy in disarray...
McCain/Palin are a disgusting self serving disgrace. Clearly proving they are not up to the complex task of keeping the Nation together in hard times.

P.S. McCain's colossal arrogance will cost him Arizona in this Election!

So national past time is more imporant than my 40k??
RNC IS STUPID AS STUPID DOES
Obama keep up the good work. I want a president who's gonna reverse the economic mess the RNC and Bush has caused for the last 8 yrs.

Obama/Biden '08

Does not matter The Phillies will have the world series wrapped up in 5 games.

GO PHILLIES!!!!!!!

SO! Is there really anybody who Cares? Well....I love apple pie but watching a baseball game is like having my eyebrows plucked....so this is a biased opinion,

Would you like some more cheese RNC?

IT'S AMAZING THAT THE REPUBLICAN RIGHT WING WILL GO TO NO ENDS TO TRY TO DISTRACT WE THE PEOPLE FROM GETTING OUR COUNTRY BACK ON TRACK WITH LIES AND DISTRACTIONS SUCH AS THIS.

OBAMA 08

15 mins so what If you had money to spend you would do the same. So get over it

Big Deal!

Go Obama, we will accommodate you

so?????????? they agreed to it

the RNC needs to worry about something else that actually MEANS something to people

I bet Mc Cain and Cindy will be pleased. This way they can sell more beer while the fans are waiting. It's a win-win.

Smart move Obama. He is so strategic. I love it!

Yeah, baseball is way more important than country. Thanks to the McCain campaign for pointing that out.

To the RNC: McCain has the right to run ads during game seven, if a game seven, like a game six, is necessary. Stop your whining and belly aching. Such actions clearly point to why McCain/Palin is falling short in the polls. It's not Americans that are a bunch of whiners; it's the Republican (Delusional)Party.

how is this even news?

Are they kidding!!??!!

Let me try!!!

It's unfortunate that the World Series' understand that the election is very important to this country and delaying, NOT cancelling an event that might not happen is okay with them.

More McDesperation

Who the heck does Obama think he is? What arrogance! Will the networks give McCain equal time and delay the game an hour? If there were not so many other reason not to vote for Obama, this one alone is enough.

Hahahaha! Unreal – the last gurgling, desperate attempts to hold together a campaign that is on it's way out in a hurry.

Barry is a joke. Is he running for President or does he really think he is the Messiah as Louie Farrakhan says. Let's not forget, he first accepted public financing and then opted out. What a joke.

God forbid something as insignificant as a presedential election should get in the way of a stupid baseball game!

RNC are so pathetic and complain about everything.

Please don't blame Obama. Blame the networks because they're the one who agreed. MONEY DO TALK.

More fake outrage that is so symbolic of the RepubliCONS these days. They're just upset that they didn't think of it first, not that they could've afforded it.

ZOMG The 15 minutes of a boring game that will steal several more hours of your life once it begins.

GOP = Desperate

Republicans really have nothing to contribute, do they? What a stupid comment.
