Actually, yes I am better off than I was 4 years ago. Got a better job, finished school, have more money in my bank account.

The bottom line is that the Republicans have so badly mismangaed our government over the last 8 years that they do NOT deserve another chance to govern. How can anyone place their trust in the Republicans? Their Rule of our country has resulted in one scandal after another, resignations of Cabinet members, War, energy costs skyrocketing, and now, an economic depression!
What does it take for some of you to see the Hand Writing on the Wall? Some of you have made terrible decisions in your voting patterns. Please don't bring the rest of us down with more bad voting desions.
We need fresh agendas and ideas from people who have intelligence and will study the situations cartefully before making decisions. We don't need Joe the Plumber.

The Republican Party is going to emblode. Palin is going to keep throwing McCain under the "Straight Talk Express".

I'm not better off but I will be when Barack Obama is elected President and turns this situation around.

Obama/Joe, "the Senator"

All that Joe the plumber garbage is just pathetic.

McCain is just like Bush. He wants to help the rich just like Bush has been doing this 8 years.

I am voting Obama all the way

This is for Igor in Russia who posted earlier: Since you are not allowed to donate to Obama, I will make another $25 donation today. So now you can feel a part of this movement to rebuild America as the beacon of Hope, Opportunity and Prosperity in the world.

PALIN PALIN PLAIN!!!
My biggest problem with McCain is PALIN! I am sick sick sick of hearing that she is strong on ENERGY. Why? Because Alaska produces 3% of USA oil and there is a big pipeline project ongoing. What a daft inference to make. Do these people realise that ENERGY does not end with "crude oil"? What does she know about wind,solar,clean coal,nuclear etc! Is Alaska an expert on these too?

ENERGY EXPERT = No
LIE EXPERT = Yes
ATTACK EXPERT = Yes
HOOD WINKER = Yes

Please be wary of how the try to get away with fake qualifications.
Supposed champion for autistic and down syndrome children? She came on TV 2 days ago to attack eamarks for research to find cure for autism. She did not even realise what she was attacking.

Is that who we want a heartbeat away from Presidency. God forbid if 72yr old McCain does not make it through the firsr term.

A VOTE FOR McCAIN IS A SURE VOTE FOR PRESIDENT PALIN
AND THAT IS A DISASTER! I SAY DISASTER!

BE WISE.......................VOTE OBAMA-BIDEN 08'

To: TAINOPOWER

If you were intelligent you would produce the "order" from Judge Surrick and not this bogus lie. DO YOU ACTUALLY THINK A BLACK MAN CAN RUN FOR PRESIDENT WITHOUT AN AUTHENTIC BIRTH CERTIFICATE!!! OKAY THIS STUNT IS MORE DESPERATE THAN MCCAIN'S VOLUNTEER ACCUSING A BLACK MAN OF ATTACKING HER!!! LET IT GO AND ACCEPT BARACK OBAMA IS THE NEXT PRESIDENT!!!

It is interesting to see people question Obama's status as a natural-born citizen, given that McCain was born in the Panama Canal Zone. It seems that McCain has a bigger problem with this than Obama.

I remember when Barry Goldwater ran in 1964, and some questioned his eligibility as Arizona was not yet a state when he was born there. I am not sure there is much merit in any of these cases; although I would like to hear the arguments for McCain's eligibility.

You won me over big time with that ad, especially the part about the lobbyists and special interest money grabbing greed mongors.

God speed my friend, go get them!

If it wasn't for the GOVERNMENT, we wouldn't have Social Security, Unemployment Benefits, Free Education for all, nondiscrimination in jobs, schools,and housing for all. Could these be the reasons that the rich don't want the government involved. Could it be because they are wealthy, these services are not necessary for them which leaves them with more money to buy more things they don't need and won't make them happier or have inner satisfaction or contentment.

Jefferson Values: Apparently you Love Reagan, the man that made deficit spending and deregulation cool. The man who laid the foundation of our economic meltdown. Trickle down economics give to the rich and stack the deck against the poor. Reagan was no scholar, neither is Bush, and neither are McCain and Palin.

If you let fools run the country, you wind up getting fooled.

It's just getting pathetic to watch the desperate flailings of the extreme neoconservative right trying to find anything they can to scare us about Obama. He's Muslim, they say. Oh, you won't believe that lie? Then he's a terrorist. No, you know that's a lie too? Well then he's a socialist. What, you know that's not true either? Okay, how about this one? Obama wasn't really born in the US so he can't be President. Sheesh!

Okay, here's a bit of a lesson from the son of a US Naval officer who was stationed in Germany when I was born. The child of an American citizen born abroad is a natural-born citizen. The constitutional phrase, 'natural born citizen', is a bit vague and that is why it was clarified by the first Congress of the United States to explicitly include the children of Americans. Of course, none of this applies to Obama, who was born in Hawaii, but even if he hadn't been, he would still be eligible to be President by being the child of an American citizen, and therefore a natural-born citizen.

Obama has said it all this is the President Americans need right now....Pls let all us support him.
God bless America

Hey Tainopower,What colour is the sky in your world?Folks,this isn't that tough a decision.You could not possibly be better off today than you were at the start of Shrubs ruinous tenure and the prospects of you being better off after four years of McCain are bleak at best.
Change is what is needed not only on the domestic front but the countries standing in the world view.A country that has given so much to so many is now the most detested and vilified on the planet.And all that has happened under this administration with the support of John McCain.

Our entire country will be better off if Senator Obama is elected!
Vote democratic across the board!!!

Parker, you are right, your rights will be violated under an Obama rule. Your phone wires will be tapped. Public Officials who do not vote "big brother's" way will have their political careers put in jeopardy. The Justice Department will be politicized. The ruling part of Congress will attempt to take away Filibuster rights (preventing people from objecting to certain policies). Oh, Wait, that's going on now under the Bush Administration. Parker, I'm sure you're white. Why are some whites comfortable only when the oppressor looks like them? Join freedom, join President Obama.

Is senator McCain, ashamed of his black family in Missississippi?

Wishful thinking Tainopower – I would sooner vote for Bob the Builder than McCain Palin. How crazy are you people, or are you all the top 1% of the country making $1billion or more? OBAMA 08 it is!!!!!

Probably not! No matter who is in office we will still be cleaning up this mess that Dean, Dodd, and Pelosi got us into!
What amazes me, is that you never hear the Dems take responsabilty for anything. They always point fingers to someone else.
Obama is best at that. He has shifted, refined, denied, twist things around, stretched the truth, and down right lies. When caught with his hand in the cookie jar, he never admits he was wrong, or made a mistake. He either says "WE" misunderstood, or he blames someone on his staff, or he doesn't know who is responsible. I have never heard Obama apologize for anything! No one is that perfect! He holds everyone else accountable for transparency, but feels he is above the rest. IE: Government Records- Obama only gave up what he wanted them to see. Health records- He gave up a one page typed up report from his doctor saying Obama is in good health. The other candiidate, and his VP are asked to give full medical reports.
Obama's College records..............
Why is it no one gets to hear interviews with Obama's Uncle, half sister, or even his buddies from College? But yet, the few people that we do get to know about, are not so nice or honest people. The friends of Obama that we are so privilaged to know about are crooks, anti American Racists, and ex-terrorists! Makes me wonder what his friends are like that he doesn't want us to know about! Too many Closed/Locked doors in Obama's life for me to trust him.

In response to "Joe the Plumber" running for office, first off, he's no
Gary Cooper, he owed back taxes and is unlicense in his trade. To
top it off, there are actually people dumb enough to send donations to
pay his taxes. You can send your donations to my family, we pay our
taxes, we pay our mortgage on time and live within our means, so
what makes this guy so special? Obviously,the same people who
buy into, Palin as the average woman would also send money to a guy
who is in arrears with the tax dept.

We will only be worse in 4 years if Palin and McCain are in office. We will all be living in tent cities and caves, and eating berries and if we are lucky fish from the river if it hasn't been polluted. There will be one good thing, we will all be walking because no one will own a car, and if you did, you wouldn't be able to find gas.

The role of government is to do that for a community of people ythat it cannot, because of lack of resources do for itself.

-Thomas Jefferson

If you want to express yourself fine, but please read a book, magazine, or a newspaper first-so that your writings are more than a rant. After this election, no matter who is elected-we, as Americans will come together. The problems we face are larger than one party, one candidate one political philosophy. The strength of America, rests in her resolve to do better, to be better. Our strength rests in our ability to have spirited debate-and then to unite in a common purpose.
This campaign has devolved into name calling and mind numbing rants. We can disagree without being disagreeable. We can discuss and debate issues great and small without being close and small minded. What we all need to think about is, is this the kind of country we want to leave our kids-a nation cleaved by red state blus state mentality. Men and women have given their lives to this nation, let's honor their memory and their sacrifice by having rational discussions on the issues-voting and at the end of the process coming together for a common good-that is the American Way!

WITH OBAMA AS OUR PRESIDENT I SEE A BETTER FUTURE, VOTE OBAMA-BIDEN

Hey Moderator the dems made it about race not us. Let the truthful comments shine through.

Judging by the polls, I'll be a lot better off than I am now. Thanks!

To the moron who states that Judge Surrick ruled Obama is not a citizen and his campaign must end: Actually, Surrick issued a 34-page memorandum and opinion saying the claims of Obama's non-citizenship are "ridiculous" and "patently false," and dismissed the lawsuit.

Google it yourself f you don't believe me.

A country that the President it deservers who may or may not be the one it needs.

In this case I am convinced that Mr. Obama is the one that we deserve and need.

As a recent citizen of USA and a first time voter I am super excited to cast my voter for a worthy Obama/Biden ticket.

I am pretty sure my taxes will go up under their plan but I don't care cause I look at it as an investment in this great nation that has given me so much.

Is Barrack Hussein Obama an natural born American citizen? This is a question that needs to be answered before Nov. 4th election. This may mean that BHO is not qualified to be president in america.

Every vote 'Count' so, Please get out and vote it's trully important for us,t he rest of the world and for our kids future. Obama/Biden our Hope for the better Change

Ooooooooooooooooooooobamaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

Our country will definitely be worse off in 4 years if Obama is elected. His policies will not help the current problems. All of you who are proud to vote for him in this historic election, I ask you, why is it historic? If it is historic because he is black, you are just as racist as Rush Limbaugh. You can't have it both ways. I am a Democrat and am not as super liberal as Obama is, that is why he does not have my vote. We need a more moderate who has more experience, that is John McCain.

Where will we be in four years?

Re-electing Barack Obama.

Apparently the McCain campaign has turned its slime machine on itself.

Sort of a political auto-immune disorder.

From robo-calls to auto-destruct, it's not been a good year for the GOP.

To all the ignorant people that keep saying that Obama is not a U.S Citizen. Let me ask do you really think that he would have come this far in this election without everybody checking to make sure that he is? I mean come on now him being the first African American(really mixed because he is half white) to run for POTUS everybody and there momma would check that out first. So please let it go because we are all really SICK OF HEARING IT!!!!!

real change coming.

Obama/ Biden

JOhn SIdney McCain was naturally born in Canal Zone, Panama, Central AMerica, also natural birth place ofGeneral Manuel Noriaga,the former Panama dictator.It is clearly noted in the USA constitution only natural born USA citizen are qualify to seek the office of the predidency. As far as I know, Hawaii was already a state before B.O was born. NOwn can you tell me who really should not be seeking the office of the Presidency. Whose been given here a special treatment, BOSO.

This "tainopower" nonsense:
Fact: There is no United States District Judge named R. Barry Surrick.
Fact: There is an R. Barclay Surrick in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
Fact: The recent opinions on the ED.Pa. website does not contain any case involving Berg or Obama.
Fact: The database of the ED Pa. website does not contain any case involving Obama.
End of nonsense.

McCain keeps YELLING fight fight fight fight.

I think his campaign advisors have taken him up on that. They're fighting all over the place. How can McCain run a country if he can't run a campaign?

ONLY THE DEMOCRATS KNOW HOW TO BUILD JOBS AND CUT THE DEFICIT. BILL CLINITON BUILT 23 MILLION JOBS AND HAD A SURPLUS. OUT THE LAST FOUR PRESIDENTS ONLY THE DEMOCRAT HAD A SURPLUS.

STOP THE LIES AND SMEAR CAMPAIGN BY THE REPUBLICAN RIGHT WING NEO CON AND JOHN MCCAIN WHO VOTED WITH BUSH 90% OF THE TIME. HE WILL NOT CHANGE!!

OBAMA 08

Only the dumbest of the dumb won't be able to understand and identify with this message. McCain is 4 more years of Bush as nothing in his policies are any different with intent to continue on with all of Bush's policies.

Add to this McCain's age and unstable reactions as well as a totally incompetent VP in the case she had to take over the controls pretty much shows why most respectable and intelligent GOP members have endorsed Obama.

Gary, you are obvioulsy a very confused and stupid man. He was born in Hawaii, and last time I checked that is in the UNITED STATES. Next time before you open your mouth and look like a fool, do your research first. Otherwise know your place and shut up.

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

Jefferson Values: How do you tell an intelligent person? It is someone who reads. To limit your reading list is to limit your understanding. I say, learn everything. And determine from your own understanding what is good, and what is not.

Republicans don't like to read. That is why they display ignorance like it is a badge of honor.

Great ad..

very articulate and thouightful... Go Obama/Biden 08' & 12'

I am pleased with you guys...

Yup its that old white retired guy from Ma. a former Republican

Bruce

I would like to think that the country will be better off 4 years later. I'm not sure anymore.

Whoever gets in office there will be a level of discontent with many americans. Obama being the first black president in the white house, or McCain/Palin for running the worst despicable campaign in history.

How do we move past blatant racisms, or prejudices within our own society? How do we get back to treating others as we would like to be treated? How do get others to look beyond their own race to see others points of views from various economic statuses, genders or sexual orientations?

In four years, I hope we can come together!

To the Obama supporters and all they may say and think Osama’s Presidency would be so Frikin Liberal that the laws of the land would become so loose that his choices and ideas would destroy society and the fabrics there with, and will make it a free for all or an out right sod-am and Gomorrah. All of which choosing Obama would be wrong for all and will be answerable to God in his second coming and those whom choose him are beholder to there choice in this election!!!

THIS IS NOT BECAUSE HE IS A BLACK MAN OR WHITE!!!

Not a sermon just something to think about.

Obama shows leadership and shows that he will take America were it needs to go. Obama sees America not as black or white, red or blue, right wing or left wing, he sees it as one and that is where the healing of America begins. Obama does not want the spread the wealth around it is just a way of say he wants to help everyone. The rich has had a break for the past 8 years and now it is time to stop the favorism because someone has a lot of money. Good job Obama, keep up the good work and thanks for looking out for the little people.

Obama is biracial – Caucasian/Kenyan! He wouldn't be the first black POTUS!

Obama has used the ruse of racism since the primaries!

This is why Independents like myself are voting for Obama. He spends his time and money talking about solutions, while McCain spends his time and money attacking Obama.

That man is a true leader and i believe he may well be the greatest President we have had in the history of this country.

TAINOPOWER, you are a criminal. Spewing lies and smears about a potential president is illegal and immoral. I can guarantee that you were hired by McCain/Palin campaign. These are their tactics.

I went into a restaurant last night and their was a beggar out front. I sat down, had my meal and when the bill came, I paid it but did not leave the waiter a tip. The waiter asked why since he felt he had given me good service. I told him I was spreading the wealth and his tip was going to the beggar in the $ 150 Nike sneakers.

The bailout is turning out to be far different from what the Bush administration sold to Congress. The idea of the bailout was that banks would use the money to start making loans again. The rescue for the economy was about buying devalued mortgage-backed securities from tottering banks to unclog frozen credit markets. But reports surfaced that bankers might instead use the money to buy other banks, pay dividends, give employee raises and executives a bonus, or just sit on it. Can you even believe that there is nothing in the new bailout law that they just wrote to prevent any other uses?

I'm amazed at the level of stupidity of some of the people posting here. Talk real issues if you like...taxes, Iraq, Russia, health care, etc. But stop with the nonsense about Obama not being born in America. He was born here and he meets all the legal requirements to run for president. This kind of stupidity belongs over at Fox news, or maybe in one of Palins stump speeches. The fact is Obama was born in the U.S. On the other hand, McCain was not. He was born August 29, 1936
at Coco Solo Naval Air Station, Panama Canal Zone, Panama. But it was technically American soil, so there is no problem for him to run either.

Obama '08!

Unlike McCain who has promised, yes I will make things better in 4 years (not even like George W., but George H.W.), Obama has actually said that the economic crisis can be fixed in 10 years. Why does he cover himself like that because he knows what it means to run while black.

I wish there was a first lady debate, that would be fun to see how they stack up against each other....who do you think would win that?. As for the topic at hand, i'm quite sure the american people are anticipating a new outlook going towards the next four years. LONDON ON CAN.

Hey, I think it is pretty well known that Obama wasn't born in this country, as a matter of fact, he wasn't 'born' at all! The truth comes out, Barak Obama is the result of secret genetics experiment using DNA from creatures from various other planets! Is this really the 'person' you want to vote for?? JOKE – this is a JOKE!!!!!

Obama is the right candidate for the Country After listening to my 16 months old baby saying Bama and what's that telling you Mccain/Palin so give it up already.
My own baby is telling the world to wake up and vote right and for the right candidate.
Obama/Biden for the white house in DC

@TAINOPOWER OR WHATER YOU CALL YOURSELF...

YOU NEED TO SEE THERAPHY..REALLY....YOUR HATE HAS OVERCOMED YOUR SENSE OF LOGIC!!! PLEASE SEEK HELP..

LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND SAY OVER & OVER AGIAN..."PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA.....

TAINOPOWER:

Great article about obama. Too bad it is from a republican/conservative web site. But why isn't the actual court case cited and linked to? Sounds like a huge amount of BS coming from that site.

God bless the Obamas.. God bless the Bidens.

Very nice, and for those of you that are still undecided, regardless of party, I highly recomend that you buy the Audio Book "The Audacity of Hope" The Senator does the voice over himself (his own words) After that, you will no longer be undecided but will be decided with confidence in your choice

Obama/Biden 08

iF Obama was white he wouldn't even thought about running for President, with as little expericence as he has. Some one is buying this election, and I bet we don't want to know who is behind this.

They have pulled the wool over people's eyes, and they won't know till the election is over and it is too late, especially Blacks, you've been had.

Just wait and see, he is black elite, and he won't even know you exist. If he doesn't help his brother in Africa, do you think he is going to give you the time of day, I don't think so. Obama is for Obama period.

ummm....wasn't McCain born in Panama? Yes, he was and yes, it's irrelevant, just as irrelevant as the ridiculous musings about the legitimacy of Obama's birth–both are U.S. citizens by the laws of our country. Let's focus on the issues and there, my friends, Obama blows McCain and his sidekick out of the water. Go Obama, take back our country from the neocons and right wing fools who have run it into the ground.

I went into a restaurant last night and on the way in was approached by a beggar wearing $ 150 Nike sneakers. I told him I would give him something on the way out. When the waiter brought the check, I paid the bill but left him no tip. The waiter asked why, since he felt he had given me good service. I told him I was spreading the wealth and was giving his tip to the beggar in the $150 Nike sneakers.

To Jefferson Values: Marx is required reading for a sociology degree in this country and most poly-sci students have read Lenin. Jefferson beleived that the richist people should be taxed at a higher rate to avoid their using wealth as a means to gain more power in the government (say the top 2% accounting for more than 80% of the wealth in the USA). He feared this would lead to the rich having increaased power over government . Ever hear of a multicorp, ceo, or Lobbist? Are you happy about the socialist move to bail out the rich?

O gee, I guess I forgot that if all the truth about Obama was known, It would be known he is a fraud.

Words are meaningless if you have not walked the talk! Check his record!

Actually, Governor Palin has accomplished much more in her servant leadership roles and is more experienced than Obama. She is authentic, smart, wise, humble, energetic, likeable, direct, transparent, a very quick study, courageous, tough and she has a strong moral center plus deep American values! She walks the talk!

I am a former democrat and Hillary supporter who voted for McCain/Palin 08! They are Americas only hope this election!

Voting for Obama will not inoculate you from being a racist. I am a former Democrat that has no reason to feel guilty because I have never been a racist, so I feel good about voting for McCain because his moderate views and great track record of being bipartisan is what is best for America’s future. However, some people I know do plan to vote for Obama out of guilt, not because they agree with his very radical ideas. They will regret voting for Obama because his is no John Kennedy. Obama is the most liberal and partisan Senator in the US. He benefits from a biased press that allows him to not answer valid questions. It may seem to benefit you who desperately want Obama to win now, but it will work against you and your rights once he is elected. The press will be incapable of holding Obama accountable once he is president out of fear of being labeled racist for even asking follow up questions. Look at what happened to George Stephanopolis in the primary debates. Obama has failed to properly repudiate the current ideas of the unrepentant Ayers. Obama was not 8 years old when he served with Ayers on the Chicago Charity Board. Does Obama repudiate the racism he embraced for 20 years in the pew of Rev. Wright? I don't think so. Obama is a hypocrite that is saying whatever he can to get elected. However, when you look at his extremely liberal voting record, you will finally realize he is way to the left of 90% of all Americans. He is not qualified to represent America or to lead a united America, and he is untrustworthy because he has yet to tell the truth about his relationship with Rezko, Ayers, Wright, and Raines. All of these people are corrupt and we ought to be concerned about it—I see a lot of negatives here—Obama will not be good for the next 4 years. We need a real positive and honest leader like McCain who has nothing to hide and has served this country with honor. McCain is the best hope we have for the next four years.

TAINOPOWER,
Continue dreaming.

Judge Orders Obama Campaign END
"TYPE=PICT;ALT="Election 2008 piece by Grant Swank
Hussein Obama was not a ‘natural born’ or ‘naturalized’ citizen and is ineligible to run for and/or serve as President of the United States.
“Judge Surrick then ordered the Democratic National Committee to cease all campaign activity on behalf of their candidate for President. He further ordered Obama be removed from all election ballots.”
****************************************************************************
Tainopower and Gary are TWINS hatched from the same GOOSE egg
You know Some Nuts like you say McCain was not born in America

Obama and his campaign are freaking' genuises.

How can we not be.

Rush is right about everything he says about ( the great one, yuck)
Obama is hideing a lot of information. WHY IS THAT BEING DONE????????????????????????????????????????????

this country will be in complete chaos as soon as BHO is elected, so my guess is after 4 years we will be ruined and relegated to third world status after his experiment in socialism fails as it has everywhere else in the world

I doubt it..unless McCain is president.

To the Obama supporters and all that they may say and think Obama is so Frikin Liberal and he would destroy society will by making it a free for all or an out right sod-am and Gomorrah. All of which will be answerable to God in his second coming and those whom choose him are beholder to there choose in this election!!!

THIS IS NOT BECAUSE HE IS A BLACK MAN!!!

The real work begins on January 21, 2009, after (unfortunately) Barry is put in the White House.

It will be time for people to unite against the socialism at home/weakness abroad agenda. Nothing he says is going to be listened to. Nothing he proposes will be any good. Us versus them...no unity behind this man. He'll immediately and automatically be referred to "Worst President Ever". Fair? Maybe not, but it's a taste of the liberals' own medicine, and necessary to save America.

We ruined Bill Clinton's Presidency, and we can ruin Barry Obama's. People need to stay united, and stay clear on the prize...to first get rid of Pelosi and Reid starting in 2010, and Obama as soon as possible.

Everyone needs to get off the birth certificate flap. Obama was born in Hawaii and has proved it. What about John McCain? Wasn't he born in Panama? Nobody complains about that.

You're all just trying to justify your racist hatred by trying to find some cheap way to justify not voting for Obama.

That's fine – you can vote for McCain – Obama has the support of the majority of American and WILL WIN on Nov 4th. If you can't handle that, I suggest you renounce your citizenship and go move to some other country because we don't need your hate mongering!

I'm starting to believe that this country is ready to start a new beginning.This day electing Barrack Oboma our president is our great destiny,the last hope for any kind of peace on earth.You know,the "Extremist" who really despise what we stand for predicted us to become devided so to a point that we become weak during this election because they look at us as hyporcits and we would not stand up for what is right.And we all know the right thing to do is elect Oboma.They predicted that our economy would fail,that was the message they sent by attacking the world trade center .Look at us today.They have that victory now their waiting for the second phase,our failure to not elect Oboma as president.We must not let that happen.McCain talks about "Victory" in Iraq and Afganistan, but what he doesn't understand is that he is not the one to bring about that victory and the world agrees,

This is a great ad that reminds us of all the positive common purposes that should unite us as Americans! This ad is just the first of the closing arguments that should seal the deal for Obama/Biden '08!

I'm driving about 600 miles round trip just to vote for Obama in a state that I know will certainly go for John McCain. The reason: I believe Obama is the right person for the job at the current time.

Ok, Democratic supporters..I'm titled caucasian and I'm not a racist I just don't believe Obama's share the wealth is right for America. Cutting a check for 40% of Americans won't help them get a job and help their families. Does Obama think $600.00 or even $1000.00 is going to support a family for 1 yr? Obama is not only naive about foreign policy he is naive about economics! Obama also wants to give billions to foreign countries. If Obama is elected he will put this country in big time debt. How do you spell arrogance? Obamapalooza! If you really care for America vote for a hero you can trust John McCain!

Tainopower,

You should join the Taliban or Al-Qaeda since they share the same core values you do: Ignore the truth and fight for ignoble values that the vast majority despises. You are a disgrace, and may God have mercy on your poor, pathetic, ignorant soul.

Not if Obama is POTUS!

He will lead a global depression! And, invite a terrorist or international incident to test him according to Biden.

Iran wants him to win because they think he is a pushover!

Obama should take a job as a campaign manager because that is basically what his Saul Alinsky : "Rules for Radicals" method of community oranizing has trained him for!

Mccain Is Loosing This Election! It Doesnt Matter What His Supporters Say! Its Over! Mccain Is A Looser! Most Americans Dont Like Mccain! He Is Not A Hero! He Will Get A Dishonorable Discharge From The Voters On November 4th!

Jefferson Values, how does the Anti-Communist understand Marx and Lenin without having read Marx and Lenin? And if he's read Marx and Lenin then, by your definition, he's already a Communist. So the Anti-Communist can't be an Anti-Communist without also being a Communist or at least having been a Communist first.

I'm not advocating for Marxism or Communism. And, um, neither are any of the candidates. But your post seems more like an argument against reading and intellectual curiosity than anything else.

Its almost SAD, that republicans in the end will ALSO benifit from Obamas plans and leadership, even though is my opinion they should NOT be allowed to since they are so obviously racist, full of hatred, and cant see the forrest for the trees....
TEXAS independent for OBAMA

OBAMA SUPPORTER- I'm not ashamed to say why I won't vote for Obama. One reason is because he is BLACK, he has no expericence, can't get a straight answer after 20 months, deals with terrorist, listens to a preacher preach hate for 20 years, he, and his wife agree with, wasn't born in the U.S.and his name is BARACK HUSSIEN MUHAMMED OBAMA, ON HIS BIRTH CERTIFICATE IS MUSLIM. nOW THAT'S A LOT OF REASONS NOT TO VOTE FOR OBAMA. iF YOU ARE THAT STUPID, YOU'RE HOPELESS, THEN VOTE FOR OBAMA.

in response to George,

It never ceases to amaze me how liberals in one breath can admonish one group of people for being "racists" and then in the next say something like this:

"the GOP, McSenile & Pailing continue to address Obama's skin color and other immaterial subjects that have absolutely nothing to do with running a country."

I guess only racism is bad, not ageism or sexism....at least not when aimed at a republican.

And tell me, when has McCain or Palin mentioned Obama's skin color even once? I must of missed it when I was listening to Obama mention it over and over and over again.

Seems skin color is an issue.....with the Democrats anyway.

They use as a way to stifle any criticism of their candidate.

You can't make an honest criticism of any kind without being label a racist. That my friends is racism in it's ugliest form.

Kinda sad.

Goooo Obama! I already voted for you! You will be an awesome leader, fair and inclusive!
***off topic***
I have a child with autism and I know Obama will do right by him and others in our country with disabilities. Any parent falling for the bull coming out of the McCain camp about funding IDEA and actually caring about disabled children are being fooled! The fact that Sarah Palin laughed off the fruit fly studies proves she does not want to find cures or treatments, expecially because it may lead to pro-choice issues. McCain voted against fully funding IDEA 18 times, what makes you think he is for it now? McCain doesn't want to make insurance companies cover pre-existing conditions, Obama does! McCain plans include across the board funding freeze, who do you think will be affected? The entitlement programs our kids depend on and the federal funding of IDEA! There are posts going around regarding vaccines and Autism, yes I believe it has a connection but McCain is fooling you as did Bush, he has no intentions of forcing vaccine makers to take the mercury out of vaccines, none what so ever! Obama will look out for our civil rights under the constitution. He will protect our children's civil rights and not look upon them as a financial burden to society and a threat the financial well being of drug companies! Obama is our best chance to help our children, that is why I am voting for him and I hope you do too!
Thank you

It seems like McCain-Palin fans are mentally ill folks who lie to set up people who aren't the same color they are. This is so sick. God Bless Obama!

Obama's positive economic agenda and the extraordinary team of people he is pulling together to achieve it, from across the political spectrum, is a winning ticket. It is no wonder so many leading Republicans are jumping ship and endorsing Obama, instead of being identified with McPain.

The only way this country will be better in 4 years is if we elect Obama.
The McCain campaign CONTINUES to use hate mongering and scare tactics to woo voters. We are better than that.

I mean, once again John McCain rushes to judgement by calling that staffer who claimed she was attacked when it turns out to be a big hoax. It was the McCain rep in Pittsburgh who told the press that the "B" carved into her face by the alleged attacker stood for Barack – BEFORE she was even questioned by the police. So it is the McCain campaign purposely spreading racial hate mongering – that is dispicible.

And today, the AP in investigating the fact that the bidding process for the natural gas pipeline project in Alaska that Palin takes a lot of credit for was deeply flawed and set it up so that only companies that favored her administration would get to bid.

It is time to get the Republicans OUT OF HERE.

From a non-US citizen, not white, not black, not purple, not yellow. Just very concerned for the uSA and the world:

OBAMA: Man with a PLAN – to CHANGE the USA and the world for the BETTER

McSame: LOST SOMEWHERE IN THE SMEAR/FEAR BLAME GAME

It's a remarkably effective ad. Positive. It tells what he wants to do, and to top it off it tells how he wants to go about doing it. It is also pretty creative.

Paul said on oct 25th, 2008 1:12 pm ET

I guess they just can't win by getting votes. (republicans)
_______
neither can obama. dont forget that it is ohios dem sec of state that is refusing to obey the law by giving the election committees the 200,00 registrations that she herself siad were suspect. she wants these votes to be counted for obama. how is this democratic?

Jefferson values says: "How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin."

Well then, where does that leave anyone who has read Marx and Lenin as a way to then understanding Marx and Lenin? Don't you have to read them to understand them?

By this hyper-simplistic measure, probably the majority of well-educated people are both communist AND anti-communist.

Even speaking in such terms reveals the amount of kool-aid jefferson values has been drinking.

Good to know that a McCain election would usher in a new era of McCarthyism.

I already voted for Obama. Please go vote early if you can .

Gary, Tainopower, Jimmy = Joe the Plumber (education: 0)

US Companies: Outsource ( Intelligence in US: 0)

OK everybody, its time to shut up and vote!!
GO AMERICA!

To Tainopower,
Are you John McCain?? come on, be truthful. Oh, sorry, you can't!
Are you Sarah Palin?? Come on. be truthful. Oh, sorry, you can't either!
So you must be Joe the unlicensed plumber. Our future Congressman... Lord help us all.

Take 'em out Obama/Biden
We want OUR Country first!!

I love this ad. evrey1 should take the time to listen to it. America, you are bless to have such a candidate running for the office. I wish we had that here in Canada.
Vote for Obama, a consistent and honorable leader with a genuine vision for America and the world.

God bless and protect Obama and his family.
America do the right thing and vote with your conscience.

Obama 08&12

To all you Republican idiots......your current President has already started the socialization process of the US by buying into parts of the financial system. So, trying to call Obama a socialist holds no water because your party is just as socialist because they want to control the financial sector since they are the ones who messed it up to begins with.

GA for Obama/Biden!

I find the single party incredibly amusing when argued against democrats. Does anybody know democrats or actually been watching them legislate and govern? It is not a monolithic party or one that often falls in line with its leaders when it doesn't agree with what is being done. The democrats that are currently in office and soon to be elected are contain a considerable amount of conservative democrats who are likely to check the power of the liberal democrats, but will actually do it out of their own beliefs and ideals rather than for political reasons. Too many good pieces of legislation get blocked by people who believe in the bill, but are bound by party affiliation.

No. We are not better off now than we were 4 years ago. And we won't be better off 4 years from now under either of the candidates agenda. Am I for spreading the wealth. Of course, but not thru tax redestribution or by buying mortgages that are under water. Capitalism is about choice/competition. I hear things like we have to shore up house prices and shore up the stock market. Wow. I have lost a lot on both but what I want is to be able to buy both in the future at the lowest price. Thats what capitalism does it helps keep prices down thru competition. The problem from either agenda it inhibits this. We need to reward hard work. We need to encourage people that the harder they work the better off they will be. Neither candidate does this. Sorry for being negative but someday I hope that we have true capitalism that doesn't create a playing field that steers money upwards or downwards.

We may not be entirely better off 4 years from now, because, economy is so totally wrecked ! BUT, under Obamas leadership, I would bet you we will be on our way to "getting" better ! So, still voting for Obama, who has great plans, with other knowledgible heads around him to ensure this !
TEXAS for OBAMA

Mrs,Obama:
I am a 60 y/o black female, with three grown children,three grandchildren. and this schould be the better years of my life ,I have been on my job for 31 years.
In 2006 I had to have a pacemaker placement ,my RXs went from a co-payment of $25.00 a month to $148.00 monthly. What is macain mine is at. my employee base insurance allow me to work an extra day aweek to pay just my medical bills. Please tell me what would Mccain 's $5,000 do When would I have the time to negotiat with an insurance company.
Keep up the good work, I thank You and your Husband for standing up for the hard working Americans

To Gary (1:13pm ET):

Sir, what flavor of right-wing kool-aid are you consuming? Barack Obama is American-born, not Kenyan. Based on the facts privy to the Federal Elections Committee, this is not a valid question but instead a third-rate (and un-American) attempt to sway the less-educated among us to not vote for Obama.

Just your level of misspelling and poor English makes me wonder which country you, Gary, were born in; Maybe in Palin's "real America"?

All these childish conspiracy nuts demanding a Birth Certificate are a demonstration of why we Americans are seen as so gullible in the world. No critical thinking, sub-par education levels. The problem in this election has been that many of our citizens are too lazy to research the facts from multiple sources, settling for paid infomercials a-la Sean Hannity and Rachel Maddow as legitimate "news" sources.

Anyone can post anything online and dopes like you, Gary (1:13pm ET) just eat it up because you don't posses any intellectual legs to stand on.

A nation of well informed men who have been taught to know and prize the rights which God has given them cannot be enslaved. It is in the region of ignorance that tyranny begins.

It looks like most of McCain/Palin are liars and hate mongor just like that lying white girl who made up that story she was attached by a black man. I blame McCain/Palin for bringing out the racist in their camp with all these hate phone calls and lying ads. I hope them two get locked up with that nut case lying supporter of their. Black men have been locked up behind white women lies and later found out it the white woman was lying. Just last you year a black man that spend over 19 years for a crime in PIttsburgh he didn't do to a white woman was release after using his DNA which 19 year ago DNA testing wasing available. So her charge is a very serious one and McCain and Palin needs to charged as well.

Tainopower? Is that some kind of furmented energy drink?
I believe it was McLame that wasn't born in the U.S. not President Obama. It's also a fact that Paylin (is the new movie a documentary?) was a member of the AIP which called for Alaska to succeed from the United States! Lets do a double check on patriotism. Paylin the power hungry back stabber and McLame the adulterer.

the united states will be better off without an inexperienced empty suit

socialist. NOBAMA

NOT IF YOU ARE THERE!!!
OR ANY WHERE IN THE POLITICAL AREAN!!!

Mccain/Palin offer no hope and thier supporters are hate filled. Shameful about Mccain/Palin's supporters lied about being attach from one of Obama's supporter. We don'nt need that kind of leaders in the likes of Mccain/Palin No Mccain/Palin offer No furture and No plan to move our country forward.

Come January 20th, 2009, we're going to have a government that can get stuff done for the people. And for all the Joe the Plumbers out there you shouldn't be worried because you don't even pay your taxes, it amazes me that such a fraud thinks he could run for a government position.

I tend to believe that parties run in cycles and Republicans will eventually be back in power, but George W. Bush has been such a failure as a leader and a human being, I find it conceivable to believe he may have destroyed the Republican party forever which is sad because we should have multiple views. Republicans will have to denounce his entire tenure to ever have a chance at comeback.

well done BARACK.

I am going to vote for Obama. After my talk with him things have really been good for me, a bunch of people raised money to pay my delinquent taxes so basically I dont have to worrry about taxes, heck I might just whine some more and receive all kinds of handouts, just like the big boys on wall street.

@ Scott... yep, you're right, the tax cuts will expire. But, in Obama's plan, they'll only expire for people making more than $250,000. Those making under that amount will still get a tax credit.

And, @ Jimmy, can't say much for your argument. Where were you when the republicans were in complete power both in the White House and all 3 houses of Congress. Gee, I think that was when they pushed through all this deregulation.

Our representatives never get anything pushed through because there's always so much bickering between the parties with each party not wanting the other one to win. Hopefully, the democrats will be in power from the presidency down. This way our elected officials will actually be able to get bills through and accomplish something worthwhile for our country. Has anyone ever actually looked at the number of days these politicians are in session during a year. Pretty amazing. They only work a couple of months out of an entire year.

excellent clip, everybody go vote, word is out that the extreme christian right wingers are out trying to stop people from voting barak obama. these people are followers for sarah palin and republicans paid by mccain campaign to stop people from voting with hate and scare tatics against barack obama…please ignore them!!! they're all over the place even on here stating bad things about obama….don't let them stop you!!!!

peace

Way to go OBAMA! Love the new ad!

Mccain must go to the elderly house ....

Gary you are well aware that according to the US Constitution, you can't run for President if you are not a natural born citizen of The United States. So I guess Obama just fooled the FBI, NSA, IMF, CIA, and any other security agency into runnng for President. Come on man its OK to disagree with Obama because of policy, but you and all the other haters need to find a different line of attack, atleast one that makes sense. Oh and don't forget Homeland Security, I guess he folled them too!

TAINOPOWER it is a small miracle that you actually walk upright......They say that there are 2 types of Republicans, Millionaires and Morons, I know exactly where you fit in that case.

I am just glad when I read the comments on all the ticker stories and find that the uneducated, backwards cave people are in the minority.

Great add!

I am a foreigner who had great admiration for America as a world leader and a democratic nation. Late President John F. Kennedy promted me to follow your politics which I have admired and have argued for America with many of my anti-American friends. Believe me eletion rhetoric from the republican party has stooped so low to the point of being silly and a joke.

McCain abondoned any sense of responsiblity when he chose Sara Palin for his running mate. How come this guy is a hero compared to John Kerry, who managed to fight his way out of a nasty unpopular war. Boy, how he was villified by the George the Clown W. Bush the son of "read my lips" and watch me go back on my word Bush senior. McCain stayed in the safety of vietnamese prison by choice which makes him a hero. He came out and what did he do? He was ufaithful to his long time faithful wife, told a lie about his age to his current wife, who incidently is very rich, perhaps only good economic decisions he ever made. He even told a lie to get his marriage license. So, he was in the air craft carrier when the Cuban missile crisis broke out like all other navy pilots. This is the sum total of his experience. The man is a certified liar and now higlighting the leadership famine in the republican party. It is people like him who prop up tyrants and dictators all over the world. Remember Tricky Dicky who armed Osama and Reegan who armed Sadam.

The way I see it America's only savation is electing Obama for President and internationally your popularity go up 100%, he has shown his honour and leadership quality compared Mr. Magoo McCain.

PS. Joe the Plumber would have been a better pick than Palin.

Mississauga, Ontario, Canada.

It's good to see a leader with a vision for the future instead of a politician who is harping on negativity of his opponent. Go Obama!

Great Ad! I just voted for Obama today. Please vote early!!!!!!!!!

For Jefferson Values.. It was Marx who wrote the communist manifesto, with a preface by Engels. Not Lenin. Further more while Jefferson believed in the freedom of man, that did not include the t slaves he owned or women. And when Ronald Reagan took office the nation debt was 996 billion. When he and George H. Bush left office, the debt was $7.4 trillion. Talk about your "concentrated power."

JEFFERSON VALUES,
Didn't you leave out the word WHO'S or WHO is?

WHO is a communist, WHO is an anti-communist?
Here's a question.
WHO is a patriot, and WHO is a anti-patriot?
Which one are you?

"Whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends (life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness) it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government..."
— Thomas Jefferson

For all of those worried about the imbalance of the federal government with the executive and legislative branches being controlled by the democrats, remember the third branch (judicial). The next president will likely replace 3 supreme court judges. If McCain wins, the republicans will control two branches (one of which comes with lifetime membership). If Obama wins the democrats will control two branches of the federal government (if only for two years).
Those who underestimate the power of the judicial branch have to realize that those "activist judges" that Bush complained about were just doing their jobs – balancing the government's three branches.

We will be MUCH better off four years from now-The mess that we have will take time to fix- But the difference is that Barack Obama will start on the first day to head our Nation in a better direction!

HERE IS A SIMPLE DEFINITION OF COMMUNISM !!!

1) CONCENTRATION OF ALL POWER IN THE HANDS OF A FEW.

2) CONCENTRATION OF ALL WEALTH IN THE HANDS OF A FEW.

* WIKIPEDIA WILL GIVE YOU A MORE IN DEPTH ONE.

* DON'T LISTEN TO CRAP. READ * * ITS FREE !!!!!

We don't know corrupt until Obama is in office. Pelosi and Reed will be calling the shots, because Obama has to be trained on the job. A dem. president, with a dem. congress, means we are stupid to let this happen.

LIBERAL, LIBERAL, LIBERAL

America will go to hell in a hand basket, and I hope Pelosi, and Reed is in it.

People won't be happy with keeping only 41.7% of each dollar. generous aren't they.

Republicans trying to fix the vote???! Get real. Those nieve enough to believe that BO has the stuff to make changes ought to think about Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton days...yep, higher taxes and giving more money to the people who are too lazy to work for it. BO wins...I'll say there are more ignorant Americans than I care to admit...if JM wins...all you dems will say is that the election was fixed....just like the 'hanging' chads in FL. Sorry folks...blaming others started in the garden...didn't work then, won't work now.

I am so confused about this election but i don't understand why are all the votes getting so worked because you do know that our vote does not count. It is the electrol votes that count. Because if our votes counted then Bush would have never been in office in the first place Al Gore would have been in white house. We all know that Bush has not been the best at anything. So really what do we do as Americans vote even though our vote does not count.

I am white, I am Christian, I am against the draft, I am voting for Obama.

Get out and vote for Barack Obama-Biden
Be a better person and look beyond the color of a persons skin
The whole McCain -Palin ticket from start to finish has been a Joke
From McCain- mr negative from the word go
to miss inexperienced dumbo on her moose to Joe the plumber to some sicko mutilating herself to make Obamas campaign look bad
just get past all the sick negative stuff and vote for a real presidential candidate who has run a smart campaign from the get go
Obama-Biden

to jefferson values, you dont know what Communist is, how can you talk about this?
Alot of People talk about this and think they know what Socialism is. But i can tell you, you have no Idea. I was born and grew up in East Germany and lived 19 Years behind the Wall, 19 Years in Jail.
And you can believe me , it was a Nightmare.
But Barack Obamas Politic have nothing to do with Socialism. Why People dont understand this?

Will the judge next say- remove all Americans from America ,because
orginally, they are not the sons of the soil. Well then that judge must be
God.

McCain can easily beat Obama with a new ad, like: " I am John McCain and i approve this message...I am like George Bush, and I understand that, i screw up but i'll fix it. I won't mention words like " Joe the plumber", "wealth-spreader", "terrorist" and " who is Barack Obama, my friends"....

anybody can become president in this country if obama win, i want to be president too.john mccain put his life on the line for the american people but obama says to let mccain take a back seat and cnn agree thank you cnn for electing a president

Excellent ad. A very distinct contrast to the tone coming from the mccain campaign.

I can see the nutty Republicans are in here. They're too dumb to realize that Obama is fighting for them and that McCain only cares about their boss, that is if they even have jobs.

And stop with the socialist talk, you all sound, well, ignorant.

hitler drew big crowds and had excelent rhetorical skills also
i know i will be hacked up for this post but makes you think doesn't it?

The extreme right like tainopower have no valid argument against obama because they can't just come out and say they don't like black people very much.

Excellent!!!

Obama/Biden 08

It saddens me to have to know how ignorant my fellow citizens are; that people actually think that Sen. Obama could have gotten this far into the process and not be a U.S citizen. People, be honest -say you won't vote for him because he's a black man – admit it. But bring truthful foundation with your arguments. He has made his birth certificate well known. Hawaii is part of the U.S., in case you did not know.

Brilliant add – this add speaks to anyone who cares about issues.

Is he getting into prediction business?

For Mike in Columbus, I grew up there and it has always been a very rascist city. Thats why I now live in San Diego, where for the first time in 30 years I am seeing Democrat signs for Obama in more yards than ever before. So I guess it all evens out...Where is Michael Coleman's support?

To: "Jefferson Values"

How did 'anti-communists' come to understand Marx and Lenin without reading them? Seems strange to me. Maybe you have an explanation.

Maybe we're all just better off understanding the world without reading books at all. Burn them maybe? Well, just the Marx and Lenin stuff eh?

My question to you is how do you tell an informed opinion from and uniformed opinion? PLEASE ANSWER It'd make my evening.

I will be a WHOLE LOT better off on Nov 5th when I wake up smiling and Barack Obama is our next president.

To Jefferson values (and I hate that you use MY actual last name)...since we know that McCain and Palin don't read or read without interest to learn....I will say that Sen. Obama is the one who UNDERSTANDS Marxism and Communism. And since Republicans are calling tax cuts for working families Socialism, but tax cuts for wealthy corporations and families progress, I'm going to go out on a limb and say they DON'T understand – anything.

TAINOPOWER=ABOMINATION

If Obama is a socialist, then McCain was a socialist in 2003 when, just like Obama today, he opposed Bush's tax cuts for the rich.

The fundamental failure of McCain's campaign strategy is that all his absurd attacks, while they sound good to his base, do NOTHING to persuade undecided voters.

Obama looks like a man trying to become President, McCain looks like a guy trying to stop Obama from becoming President.

Hope Americans will be better off with Obama as their president cause to me he sure as heck makes more sense that Pallin and McCain. As for today, yes you are better off with Obama–probably much of the world is rooting for Obama's sense of fairness and willingness to begin discussing overlapping problems in which many countries are entangled. What's to be gained by being rascist? The racial issues of the long ago past should be ostracized in today's world in order to build a better one for all.
Paul

Fear mongering-Hate mongering-War mongering-Lie mongering--
Is this what has become of the Grand Old Party?

It is obvious that Obama is very close to winning, therefore, his closing argument focuses on what the future would be like if he got elected versus if McCain got elected. Obviously Obama would be a far better president, and he wants to call our attention to that.

Essentially, this ad draws us back to a moment of reflection on the past eight years and the election season.

Q: Who has handled the obstacles better? Who would better lead the country? Will McCain be any different from Bush? Will you be better off in the next 4 years?

A: Obama, Obama, No, Only if Obama is elected.

Its sad when Obama must use Ronald Reagan's great line to fool people...

October 25th, 2008 12:19 pm ET

good ad. I like when Obama speaks directly to the people. In this time and day, we should ask are we better off then 4 days ago. the economy is getting worse daily and we need solutions which Obama provides.
)) relax...if sign could vote ....I ll have as many of them placed with my name on it and be elected.....Remember the silent majority..they dont tell for whom they will vote..just relax...november 4th is not far away and most americans are not stupid...

It is confusing me to see how gullible people are. THE LARGEST SINGLE TAX ON THE POOR IS THE CORPORATE TAX. Think about it.... Put a big tax on Exxon or the other oil companies and they just raise the prices.... a tax on the poor much more than the rich because you can only use so much gas. Tax Pacific Gas and Electric and you get higher energy prices. Tax Albertson's and you get higher food prices and on and on and on. Try the formula on any company and see what you get.

To Gary and Jason,

If any of your parent is an American, whether you were born in Kenya or Kuwait or China, you are automatically an American and thus eligible to run for the highest position in the land. The only exception is if your became a citizen by naturalization then you cannot run for President.

Obama Y'all

The comments about people not voting for Barack because he is black , may not be what you think . I am concerned because so many vote for him because he is black . Also I find the Black Liberation theology that he believes in , not right for a president . Acorn , while helping to the degree they do , shows how righteous they feel about any means to get what they want. Also I am concerned about the amount of fawning over a man who claims to love Jesus . He does not point to God as his help , but accepts and encourages adoration . There are many reasons to believe John McCain has a great love for the founding priciples of our Democracy . Not a new age blend of radical populism , with a reluctant nod to the military needed to support freedoms . I believe he thinks his way with words , are our saving grace . No , I do not trust Barack

oh yeah, sorry, almost forgot

OBAMA-BIDEN 08!!!!!!

I just had to weigh in with the rest of the bloggers about Tainopower. This guy has no concept of reality.

Substance + Leadership + Integrity = turning this country around in the right direction.

Obama gives me confidence he can do the job well. He's got my vote.

More than 90% of Europeans would like to see Obama as president.
This is your chance, Americans, to make America a serious country again. America has lost a lot of its credibility in Europe, due to the Iraq war, and the financial crisis as a result of 8 years of disastrous management due to the Bush government. Please, don't let it happen again.
Vote Obama!

Greets from Belgium

Regina, you have OD'd on kool-aid yourself...McCain has had no substance in any of his policy stances, unless you consider his buying up mortgages so the banks stay fat on the backs of taxpayers...or his health plan that would cover only 5 million out of the 47 mill without healthcare (Obama's would cover nearly 30 mill), just as an example.
jefferson values, how do you tell if someone is an idiot? They repeat lies from the McCain campaign implying Obama is a socialist or communist. If you had a grasp on history, the US tax system has always been progressive (i.e., the more you make, the more you pay as a % of income). That in and of itself implies socialism using a strict definition. What do you call wealth transfer from the poor to the rich? Trickle down theory, which has shown NOT to work for the long run by both Reagan (raised taxes 2nd term; left daddy Bush holding the bag vs. Clinton & Perot) and by W (unless you call today's economy vibrant)

obama supporter October 25th, 2008 1:16 pm ET
to all those people that afraid , , ,
THE ONLY REASON IS THAT OBAMA IS BLACK.
if obama was white,i am sure that the majourity of the people will vote for him.
SHAME ,SHAME,SHAME ON YOU.
---------------------------
Save your "SHAME" sermon! In fact, if Obama were white, he wouldn't even be in the running - because there's nothing distinguising or accomplished about him that would create any interest!

Obamanomics: Trickle Up Poverty for all! I am a registered Dem. voting Republican this year. My party has been taken over by the liberal Daley Chicago machine. What a crime. And we have Harvard grads & Stanford law school students who apparently don't know the meaning of "resident"of ohio qualification to vote! Terrific. I'm a retired school principal. While a math teacher, I always taught my students that if I took all their test scores and divided up the points among them, so each was "equal to the other", and socialist, they would pretty nearly all quit studying for a better score! Why can't people see the demise of other socialist empires and their "common" inability to afford all the programs AND keep a good nat'l. defense afloat? UN needs US because we are the only ones not burdened w/socialist programs who can still afford a military! No Handouts, no Obama!

NOVEMBER 5, 2008: It's morning time in America. The beginning of a new chapter in America. We will all (those who are willing) work together for a better America. The voices of hatred and intolerance will have been significantly silenced.

President Barack Obama; VP Joseph Biden – has a nice ring to it. God bless America. It's morning time in America – Nov 5. Be part of the change. Go out and VOTE!

Gary...and all the other paranoid conspiracy theorists out there.....

Do you really suppose that this issue of Obamas place of birth hasn't been checked out by the Federal Election Commission?

I mean, my goodness, it's not as though John McCain was in charge of vetting him!

Introducing the President Of The United States Of America, President Barack Obama, well spoken President, Yayyyyyy
God Bless America

Obama is 1/2 black and 1/2 white so race should not be an issue. He does appear more black than white so I suppose most people consider him to be black. I am not a Republican or Democrat and find Obama far more impressive than McCain. I don't want to vote for either and have not yet decided which way to go. Obama has been treated with kid gloves by the press so there is likely a lot we do not know about the guy. Regardless, I believe he will win and I will be anxious to see the impact on the black community. Will this finally allow the black community to stand with real, heart felt pride and declare that anything is possible no matter the color of your skin? Can white people stop feeling guilty about the past and treat black people as true equals? Can everyone accept the fact that we all have cultural and social differences that should be appreciated instead of feared? As a pro-life Christian and will be praying for whoever inherits the mess left by the current incompetent and hope we can pull together as Americans to get back on track.

Tainopower you are an idiot.

Update: obama not citizen 10/25/2008 11:40am

Wile searching true the web sites .I have found different sites that have different information about the law sue against obama and some say the judge rule for and others say the judge rule against obama ? At this time I will like to correct what I have posted and wait and see what is the real ruling on the case. .I apologize for any inconvenience.

Cnn, you need to remove that first comment about a judge ordering obama off the ballots. It is a direct fabrication. The judge dismissed the plaintifs claim as "ridiculous" and "not worthy of discussion". Do your part in illiminating lies from the news.

Obama 08

Re: Parker San Fran
"Four years from now? Not if Obama is elected… I'm pretty sure I'll be worse off financially and since we'll be a Communist country at that time, my human rights will be violated daily."

Give me a break. That sort of X-Files conspiracy garbage went out with, well, X-Files. And "anti-Commie" rhetoric like that has been out of style since Dallas was the No. 1 show on TV.

I WILL BE MUCH WORSE OFF SO WILL 250 MILLION PEOPLE...ALTHOUGH 50 MILLION WE BE BETTER OFF LIVING ON SOMEELSE'S SWEAT

I dont know what everyone's problem with Socialism is, I can name ten countries, where socialist concepts actually work. And none of those said countries are fascist, in the whole finanacially, or all about greed, and looking out for number one!! If anything resembles fascism, it's the last 3 republican administrations that we've had. talk about BIG BROTHER!!

To obama supporter – can't obama or any of his supporters do anything but play the race card? I know he has no qualifications and not experience except for his time as community organizer with acorn or his time with ayers learning basic fundamentals of domestic terrorism but quite honestly the race card thing is getting terribly old and over used!!!

thanks mike and bob – great response to jimmy.

Just like republicans to have to use sensationalism (like Palin) as their only hope to win an election. I stand by Obama/Biden – who can clearly inspire not only a nation but the best in us. Unlike the "other one" that has to resort to fear tactics and mud slinging as the platform for his campaign.

Obama/Biden, for a truly UNITED States.

GARY October 25th, 2008 1:13 pm ET

How is it that Obama can run illegally. He is deffently not a born U.S. citizen.That is the main thing running for President. I believe this race has been illegal from the begining ,vote frauds and all.I have read the federal laws and you deffently have to be born a U.S. citizen to run. Obama was born in Kenya and adopted Indoniesia.Does this country change the contitution and federal laws for this certain canidate. This is illegal as hell.iF this is the case a terroist could come over here in run.Thats an example. I think Obama should be suspened and HRC should be legally the nominee.This is all wrong.
------------------------------
Wondered when you would show up and start your bs again. I see you've learned to turn off your CAPS LOCK when you type your rants, good boy. Now, you need to go to Factcheck.org and do some actual research instead of regurgitating the crap you are reading from Tainopower Tool and Jason there.

No Shame Shame Shame on you. To think that the only reason people will not vote for Obama is because he is black. How racist is that statement? I will not vote for Obama because he is the biggest liberal I know and then when you add Joe Biden to the equation (who by the way is white) then you really lose me. I have no problem with race, I voted for Allen Keys many years ago, I'd vote for alot of black conservatives. I thought the democrats were the great uniters, so far all I've heard is race, race, race. Is it so you have something to fall back on if Obama loses, because you simply can't believe that Americans like capitalism and freedom to choose more than socialism? Or that Americans do not want a radical liberal agenda shoved down their throats? Shame on you for even making race an issue, that is lower than low. You should not judge a man on the color of his skin, but the content of his character. That is why I'm not voting for Obama!

The reason Obama was smiling whenever McCain spoke at the last debate was because McCain told the America people to their face that he supports Bush over 90% of the time. He made sure we heard him. He sat there at the debate table and said he was not George Bush. But even if he doesn't side completely with Bush now, even 70% or 75% is way too much. He is trying to make us believe that he has accomplished a complete turn around in his views and doesn't agree with Bush anymore. I'm not buying it and I am not giving McCain vote to find out just how much he still agrees with George W. Bush. You can't teach an old dog new tricks. And you will not find an older dog than John McCain!

To all you Republicans out here, " WELCOME ABOARD ", you people have finally open your eyes. The republicans have run this country into the ground, Time for a change, BYE BYE you NEO-CONS

I have always been proud of Obama. He's great unifying figure in the world. He never thinks in terms of white and black people, but God's people. American's) I'm sure after his four years term we will be seing him elected by a landslide next general election. Less go Obama.We pray for God's wisdom as you lead His people.

This seals the deal.

Ashley TOD is runing for senate next year just like joe the plumber. Shame on republicans

To Paul C – the Republicans didn't pay $832,000 to acorn (voter fraud organization) to promote voter fraud – that paul was obama's campaign!!

in response to: Obama Supporter,

Shame on those that don't support Obama because the ONLY reason they don't is that they are racists?

Do you realize what a racist statement that is?

If anyone should be feeling any shame it is you.

I don't support Obama because I don't believe in socialism as a productive form of government.

It gives no incentive to excel , if fact it punishes those who do and rewards the mediocre bringing us all down to the same low level.

His concepts of government are not new, not change, they have been tried many times and always have failed. See the old USSR. What product did they ever produce that had quality to make it in demand by the rest of the world?

The only consumers of their inferior products were their on citizens that had no other choice. And even now Russia has oil to export and that's about it.

Follow Obama to "change" and that is what the USA will become.

Tainopower must be drinking draino. Obama revives hope.

Even Republicans now concede that McCain has run a bad campaign, while Obama has run a very well organized and efficient campaign. McCain has been planing this run for at least 8 years – Obama for less than 2 years. When choosing someone to run the national government, I'll go with the proven competence of the Obama organization. If McCain gets a chance to run the government with the same lack of skills as he has run his campaign, he will make the Bush Administration look brilliant.

Sure won't be better off with McCain. Remember his economic philospohy...let it trickle down...I've got a coffee cup to catch those pennies.

On November 5th, all of you wackos will wake up to the historic reality that Barrack Obama will be the next president of US. And, guess what? You'll survive and even flourish and, hopefuly, stop being so hateful.

Republican for Obama.

Question to the those with the Birth of Obama question: where was McCain born?

TAINOPOWER,

Not this time,
Not this year,
Not this election.

We will take back america.

Ida for Obama
I just heard McCain's speech, what a speech! This man wants to keep on fighting and spending more; I wonder how he is going to save America from this falling economy while we spending more of our tax dollars on wars. A war could've been avoided, America can't take anymore of this Crap, and we need our tax dollars to save us, to create jobs jobs jobs, better health insurance. In McCain's speech, talked about his scar, I like to ask Sent. McCain, does this scar remind him of victory? Did we accomplish anything? Of course not, lives was lost from both sides, also in his speech says, "we have to show the world we are the strongest", what is this? I like to tell him, we don't want to be the strongest, we want to be the wiser, we should look at the roots of the problems, not invented, we want to be out of this vicious game which it costing us our homes, jobs, health, and our lives, we need to built not to destroy. I also heard him saying, that he will not leave Iraq until we get victory, dignity, and respect. I like to tell him, the victory is to leave Iraq alone and let them solve their problems, because we need to solve ours first, dignity and respect is to be wise and have a conscious, because the people of Iraq suffered enough and they don’t want us there, so please someone tell me why should we stay in a war was built on a lie? McCain’s speech has a Gang’s style, like we nailed them, put your cards on the table, we are the strongest, we got the power, and more. Please my fellow Citizens be wise and choose right, because our decisions either take us to the worse or to the improved.

Not if barack hussein obama is elected – elderly will be disposed of, children will be in youth training camps and the truth squad will be in full force all across the USA – well I am sure by then hussein will have changed the name of the USA. He's already planning to change the flag! So don't try to protest the disapperance of your parents or don't protest your children being taken away – the truth squad will get you!

TAINOPOWER,

Are you the dog of Karl Rove?

Is it me, or is Obama just making an excellent closing argument here? He has laid out a great case for himself, now his summation asks us to look into the crystal ball and imagine a world with him as president and challenges us to think of the "other guy" as president...which world do you want? A sane rational person...hands down....votes Obama.

I did yesterday and all I can say is, "Come on in folks, the water's fine!'

I have just one thing to say: You Go ((((( OBAMA ))))) "08"

HECK NO IF THIS PERSON WHO IS NOT A CITIZEN OF THIS COUNTRY GETS IN....he has to steal the presidency to get in. If he was a citizen he would submit that birth certificate, or did he go to Hawaii to get the one the Hawaii government manufactured for him...but just think, how can he explain the Indonesian citizenship, that one's gonna be harder to get rid of .....

He is absolutely correct. More of the same is what you get from McCain. We need a new direction and Obama has the right ideas. My only concern is will he be strong enough to halt the Democratic Congress from spending unnecessary funding. Obama says if you are willing to work you can make something of yourself but if Congress continues to aid and support those who do not want to work, we are right back where we started. Supporting welfare where there should be none,

Any undecided voters out there or Sen Obama supporters who have not voted yet......get out there and vote now.....we need to get rid of this nonsensical Republican party.
This country has been brought down by the failed policies of Bush and it will not change under McCain......no matter how he tries to run away from Bush he voted with him 90% of the time.....words from McCain's own mouth!!!
We can't let this golden opportunity get away by not electing Sen Obama....this man will bring the country together and get it working again.....go and vote!!!!

OBAMA/BIDEN 08

I have been following political developments in US over last few years. I would be least surprised to see US electorate get Mc Cain into White House – why ? – because if this electorate can vote George Bush into the office twice, god save them !!!! They have chosen the fastest path to self-destruction with George Bush who can handover the baton to Mc Cain who can make it even faster. That reflects on US electorate and their IQ – cant really blame them I guess.

jason.do you have your birth certificate?is it false?

Great Commercial – No Negativity – Just the facts, delivered in his very Presidential way.. I just donated AGAIN!

Obama/Biden Forever!

How My Life Will Be In Four Years , Depends On Me , Not Obama ! . I'm Not Going To Put My Future In The Hands Of A Media Created Trend , Does Obama , And The Media Really Think , We Can't Survive Without Him ?.

Look At The Four Years Obama Represented The People Of South Side of Chicago , Are They Better Off ??? .

The Only Ones Better Off , Are Obama , And This Croonies .

This election has shown that a lot of people are still quite ignorant and racist.

Luckily these types have no power in the US and they'll just have to like it or lump it because Obama will win.

Regina October 25th, 2008 12:41 pm ET

Great ad . . . by the way, is BO a Landmark Education grad? Seems like it. Folks keep drinking the Kool Aid. McCain is the better choice.

This is for regina
GFY..decode B**ch and a racist one above all

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil, is for good men to do nothing.

VOTE MCCAIN / PALIN!

It is ignorent for any one to have listen to Senitor Obama through-
out this campagin if you have a computer you have oppotunity to read and hear this man and if you have a ounce of desency about your-
self you whould know this man is a desent human being and for
any one who will not admit to this you have a problem and need
to repeant it is sad that any human being know the situation
this country is inand will not do what you could do to help is
truly sad for all of the attack ads toward towards Senator Obama
is all so so sad wwe need to vote the isue not ignorants

President Barack, you got my vote. Love the ad and the message behind it!!!

A vote for Barack Obama will overcome the pockets of "ignorance" that prevail in the USA. He is exactly what the world needs at this time in history. Vote early and make it count. Obama/Biden08/12

This is exactly what was planned – fight the smears, etc., but in the last week, have enough money to flood the media with a straightforward, positive message about why Barack Obama is the right choice. If how Obama has run his campaign is any sign of how he will run the country, Obama is a good choice. This is one of the most organized and disciplined politicians I have ever seen. I think he learned a lot of this from "community organizing"!

Aside from these rediculous right wing/left wing ideological issues – neither of these candidates is very "radical"), the main reason someone would have to not support Obama is if one believes that he is lying (this is what the majority of McCain's most recent attacks are really all about). For that, Obama has a record that can be researched. Will most people research this? No, probably not. Many of them will listen to the lies and distortions.

Then how will voters truly decide? The Founding Fathers had an ultimate faith in our ability to make a rational choice, based on the issues, the facts, and each person's ability to judge the basic nature of another. The internet has helped to re-leveled the playing field this time around.

I hope the Founding Fathers have not misplaced their faith!

Will I be better off four years from now?

Not if we look up on November 5th and find that the country was stupid
enough to have elected Sarah Palin to the White House.

Democrats 08.

Igor October 25th, 2008 1:14 pm ET

I guess what Colin Powell said will prove to be absolutely right. Electing Mr. Obama will not only eletrify America but it will sure electrify the world.

I think that the very fact that America is ready to elect a black guy to be the preisdent is such an achievement that can be compare to invention of a phone or antibitics only to the society as a whole. It really gives people more freedom when they don't bother about the race and do think about real issues. I would love to make a donation to Mr. Obama campaing. Alas I am russian and live in Moscow.

Igor
------------------------------–

I am very sorry you cannot make a contribution to Obama, Igor but I will tell you what, tell me how much you would have donated to Obama and I will donate it on your behalf. I have not reached my $2300 donation limit yet so I can donate up to $1000 more before I reach it. Let me know how much you want to donate and I'll do it as a symbolic gesture for a new friend who wants to reach across the Pacific and unite with us here in the U.S.

jefferson values, you should read it, you will never under stand it... And can you please tell me what McCain is going to do ?? other then follow Bush doctrines...

I think that must of the Republicians fear that there time is coming slowly to an end. It's true that the color of his skin is a problem and if Sen. Obama should win they are asking themselves whats next. A Mexican-American, Jewis-American, Italian-American and so on.

Hopefully, one day we all will be called Americans of the United States the great country in world.

Who ever wins it will be diffulcult and we know he cannot do everything. But just a little light is better then no light at all.

America, my flag will hang out if you elect the only candidate who is
ready to lead your country and will be respected and loved all over the world.

I am living in The Netherlands and I love this man already

He will be your greates President in history.

I CAN GO INTO ANY CONVIENIENCE STORE OWNED AND OPERATED BY MUSLIMS AND SEE NOTHING BUT SUPPORT FOR OBAMA WITH T-SHIRTS AND HATS FOR SALE AS THEY FEEL THAT OBAMA WILL STAND ON THE SIDE OF MUSLIMS WHEN THE TIME COMES.....THAT AND ILLITERATE BLACKS THAT HAVE NO CLUE OF WHAT IS GOING ON IN POLITICS.OTHER THAN THEY WANT A MAN OF THEIR COLOR IN THE WHITEHOUSE. HOW SAD THIS COUNTRY HAS BECOME

Why do people keep asking after the birth certificate? The law is that if either of your parents is an American citizen you are an American citizen no matter where you are born. We know McCain wasn't born in the US.

Senator Obama WAS born in Hawaii.
OBAMA was born in the USA – he is an AMERICAN!
The Berg lawsuit was thrown out of court. Berg is a nut.

What is wrong with the American people that they believe so many untruths.

Obama-Biden '08

GOPers, stop whining... the media is NOT against you. There's no conspiracy. You're just losing....NATIONWIDE. Your ideas are morally and LITERALLY bankrupt. Your campaign is in disrepute.
McCain/Palin have run a truly dishonorable campaign. Can anybody believe it?? To even be able to link the word "dishonorable" with a true American war hero. It's pitiful
The last straw was the McCain campaign pushing an incendiary version of the hoax about an Obama supporter - a big menacing black man- attacking a poor innocent white woman just because she displayed a McCain bumper sticker. The problem?? IT WAS ALL A LIE. MORE LIES FROM McCAIN!! The McCain camp should immediately fire the communications director who pushed that story as fact.
Where is McCain's honor??? He is not qualified by any stretch of the imagination (and laughably, neither is Palin) to win the White House.

Tainopower
Please stop with this stupidity. Where are you getting this information from?

If you can't see the leadership in Obama from that ad, I'm afraid your head is somewhere the sun doesn't shine. What a contrast between his and Biden's attitude and that of McCain and Palin.

Jason October 25th, 2008 1:13 pm ET
The Obama "Birth Flap" Obama: Where is your TRUE birth certificate?
WHERE IS YOUR MOTHER ?

It is so funny to see how all these rumors of being born elsewhere and how a democratic senate and house under a democratic president would be bad (we had a republican senate and house and a republican president for some time, did we not?), considering that the election is coming to a close. It is just to interesting to see why this happens, only when the final days are coming. Long ago, we never would have seen such comments.

TAINOPOWER–
"He who knows nothing is closer to the truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods and errors." — Thomas Jefferson

The last time we had a democratic president it seems to me things went well, the economy was good, military was funded, the world respected us. Barack has not said he is raising anyones taxes, just letting the bush tax cuts expire, so that it was the way it was when Clinton was president. Which if I recall were pretty good times.

We need to balance the budget, I am against another " stimulous " package, it would just be more debt for us, the last 8 years have almost destroyed this countrys economy, destroyed our credibility, hammered our labor force, and dampened our moral incredibly. I allready voted here in UTAH, the reddest of the red states, I have only seen 1 McCain yard sign and 3 McCain bumper stickers. I have seen countless Obama stickers and yard signs here. Will Utah turn Blue ???? Not a chance, But the democrats our excited here, and the republicans have no enthusiasm for their canidate.

The ad is great, positive and uplifting, full of hope, he reminds me a lot of how people felt listening to J F Kennedy. looking forward, and not backwards

Obama surrounds himself with the same ole people that have been in there forever and you are expecting the world to change. Obama has no experince, he is unqualified. If you want to see what Obama is all about look at Chicago he did not do anything. High taxes and slums. He is a Chicago thug politition. He voted 130 times 'present' He can't make a decision. He is a fraud.

Ya know, the truth is that it is time to stop arguing for whose better. The battle lines are clearly crossed. Maybe you haven't seen the campaign signs on all your neighbors lawns. So you can stop arguing now, cause everyone has already made up their mind.

I just figured out that some of these Macain folks must be on crack, they are just coming up with all kind of crazy mess............Go Obama!!!!

to tainopower

Are you and Palin from the same planet? Where do you guys get your info. Thank gawd I'm an ex- McCain supporter.

Obama can put out as much spin on as many ads as he wants......fact is I see nothing, hear nothing, to make me think we'll be better of in four years. This one is a "catchy' ad that plays on words.....so what's new.
We will not be better off until the uncontrollable spending in Washington stops, and this doesn't seem to be a part of the Obama plan. Quite the contrary. Let's face it people.....everything he does is over the top and it all cost money. We can't keep borrowing to fund our programs and we can't keep sending money overseas.
So......while plans are in the works for another stadium celebration, and champagne, lobster and caviar are on the menu for a special banquet for special people( sniff hard enough and some of you might get a wiff of it)......think carefully and use your common sense before you choose the president.

With Obama leading, hopefully we will see change in January.

I can't believe John McCain tried to say Obama would be more like Bush...more garbage from the McCain campaign. It is so bad that my 6 y/o son calls him Bush-McCain.

I have one other issue to take up with the McCain-Palin ticket also. How is it that John McCain condemned Obama for wanting to put more money in education during the debates? All throughout the debate he kept saying the system just needed "reform" and we didn't need to throw more money at the problem. THEN YESTERDAY... Sarah Palin gives a speech yesterday about how they are going to pump billions of dollars into special education. I am a teacher and I feel like the entire system needs more funding, not just special education. All the other teachers I've talked to so far feel the same way. We need to take care of the entire school system. I work with special education children and the main thing holding back progress is funding in education in general, not for just one segment of the population of children. I feel like Sarah Palin just wants to implement things that will benefit her own family. We need to have better funding in the entire system, not just the area that is of a particular interest to the personal motivations of the VP pick for the GOP!

Believe, see and hear what you want, but, Obama IS a true born American. Get past the color man.

To Jimmy:
I can't agree more than you: ABSOLUTE POWER is the power that was used by warmonger president Bush to get us in this endless war in Iraq, and I am afraid that Senator McCain's flashbacks from Vietnam will get us into deeper problems perhaps a nuclear war.
WE NEED CHANGE=OBAMA!

I agree with Jimmy. If we elect Obama, there will be no effective exercise of checks and balance on our leaders and our biased liberal press will not have the courage to ask the critical questions of our Democratic leaders. The press has simply helped package Obama as a charismatic leader, while ignoring his questionable past relationships and helping him hide his past ACORN work. As Biden points out, Obama's chrisma will mean nothing to our enemies. They will see this a American weakness and attack. We need to learn from our history. The best financial recovery we have ever had was when Reagan (a Republican) was elected with a Democrat controlled Congress. If we elect McCain, the press will not take a 4 year vacation as they will with Obama, instead they will do their job and keep McCain accountable to the people. If Obama is elected, the press will continue to fail to do its job. For this reason, I am one former Democrat that will be voting for McCain.

»A new AMERICAN President withOUT enough EXPERIECE!??!?!With SOCIALIST(!!)Views(!)/Plans(!)!??!?With a ARABIC(!)/AFRICAN(!)NAME(!)?!????NO!NO!Is this United Sates of A...ANGOLA?!?!!?»WAKE UP USA!WAKE AMERICANS!WAKE UP VOTERS!!!!»VOTE with your BRAIN!=VOTE MCCAIN!!!

@Jason,

That birth cert. story has been debunked a hundred times, give it a rest, eh?

jefferson values October 25th, 2008 1:15 pm ET

How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin.

which one is obama
------------------------------–

Um, it's OBVIOUS to anyone with any sliver of intelligence that Obama is anti-Communist. Now McLAME on the other hand..he's acting and talking just like a dictator at his rallies and letting his Marxist handpuppet Parrokeet Palin spew whatever lies he wants her to.

We need change and Obama is ambitious. He has good ideas and hopefulyy this election will be over soon.

This is the most critical vote in thirty years. America is mired down in a foolish costly occupation of Iraq. We are sliding down the slope to the next Great Economic Depression. If John McCain is elected. Four years from now we will still be mired down in the Iraq occupation and will be deep into the terrible economic depression. McCain has made it very clear that he does not intend to leave Iraq. Also his foolish 'Maverick' economic decissions have made it clear that he is not 'The One' to turn this economy around.

I JUST READ MCCAIN&PNAC ON GOOGLE IS IT A REAL GROUP IF SO THEY ARE REAL SCARY

I & THIS NATION, WILL BE BETTER OFF FOREVER.

I AM VOTING FOR THE MAN THAT LOVES ME BACK.

I feel so sorry for TAINOPOWER he really doesnt love america, person like you dont deserve to live in america....I am praying every day for the future of this beatiful country If God is with us whom against us...

Well Jimmy if absolute power corrupts just look at what the Republican party did from 2000-2006 I think it is time we give Democrats a chance to see what they can do. If they can't get anything done then we have the right to kick them out in 4 years.

This is what TAINOPWER who voted for McCain and Palin will say on November 5, 2008?

I was depressed last night, so I called a Suicide Hot Line.
Got a freaking’ call center in Pakistan.
I told them I was suicidal. They got all excited
and asked if I could drive a truck. I give up!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Obama & Biden '08

This "news" article is really product placement.

jefferson values October 25th, 2008 1:15 pm ET : Maybe you should trying reading and forming your own opinions rather than sucking up the Republican talking points and the drug induced rants of Rush Limbaugh. A mind is terible thing to waste jefferson!

I've gotten hatemail from the RNC in Indiana. That just shows that they are desperate and know that they are losing a state that used to be a guarantee.

I'm dreaming of a blue US map.

Ok, I'm offically sick of the Philip J. Berg posts. Have any of you anti-obama folks actually taken the time to READ the actual filed lawsuit? His sources range from wikipeda to "inside edition" news.
A high school research paper wouldn't even accept these sources because they aren't legitimate.
Wikipedia? Are you serious? That's your proof?
For god sakes read the actual thing and realize it wouldn't even work on a high school paper much less a presidential lawsuit. Its frivolous, unfounded, and juvenile. Don't be that dumb. Give it up, Hillary lost, she's not coming back, and obama is gonna win. Get used it! He's American. He's the American dream. Wake up from whatever it is you're dreaming about.

Jimmy-Read a little history. Our Founding Fathers were incredible people, but they most certainly were not saints. Balance of power my butt. What of all these years the gop had control of all three branches? Look what the did to the USA! And they made themselves and their friends, that top 2%, very, very, wealthy.

The fact one of these posters has the name TAINOPOWER as their name is an insult to REAL Tainos who were oppressed and driven to extinction by white Europeans.

Sell OUT!

Has not the Republican party been in control of the legislative branch and the executive branch for six of the past eight years? So if the Democrats come to power, we the citizens should fear for our democracy? Explain that to me, Jimmy. I'm a 70 tear old white woman who has voted Republican my entire adult life until this year. My vote for Obama/Biden was hand-delivered to our local Board of Elections on October 23rd. It made me breathe a sigh of relief!

The government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.

Republicans believe every day is the Fourth of July, but the democrats believe every day is April 15.
Ronald Reagan

To STAINOPOWER: You are just one of the reasons smart people are voting for Obama. Your made up, distorted and shameful lies need not even need posted. Do you even have any friends that you can talk to and get you out of the gutter in which you lie?...

Great ad Obama! Way to skip the petty attacks and get to the real issues. I'm willing to risk a democratic controlled government after having a bi-partisan senate and congress that didn't get us anywhere but in the hole we're in. Bring it on. If we're wrong, elect someone else in 4 years, all I want now is to get this country back on track. Voted on 10/21 for Obama!

Americans complain about a congress that is gridlocked, garnering an abysmal approval rating...lower than George Bush. The gridlock is caused by partisanship that hobbles good ideas, no matter which side comes up with them. While there is reason to fear a majority government in both houses, how can it be worse than what has happened over the past eight years? It's probably time to take that risk...to see how that turns out. There are right and left Democrats...some right Democrats even farther right than some Republicans. Maybe the balance is still in place within the Democratic party. IF they don't do better...toss them out after this term.

no no no: the question is, the real question: can anyone name ONE thing that is better off today than 4 years ago???? how about 8?????

The GOP fears Obama because they know he will tell the truth.
Believe me, the corruption goes much higher and deeper than they want you to know. The truth shall set us free.

I didn't hear any Repubs complaining when their party controlled the White House and Congress for 6 years.

A Dem Congress with Pres.Obama = Cooperation, Unity,
and Progress

A Dem Congress with Pres McCain = Gidlock, Division, and
Stagnation

TAINOPOWER: Please stop listening to Rush my brain on drugs Limbaugh. The man is a junkie, just because it's pills makes him no less a junkie. Brains on drugs do not think clearly. Maybe you should be worried about McCain's birth certificate since he was born in Panama. Not exactly part of the 50 states. He could have duel citizenship for all we know, will he outsource American jobs to the country of his birth? Somone of your obviously low IQ Taino should worry. Why are you McCain supporters such lying psychos?

That's it, spell it all out one more time. There are SO many of us with you. We have come so far, I have worked for you, donated to you would do anything to help your campaign. Bring it on home,man, Mr. Prsident. You give me hope every day.

OBAMA/BIDEN 'O8/ '12

Dear TAINOPOWER:

Senator Mccain was born in the Panama Canal!!! Does this make him a panamanian? It's nice to see you share your opinions, but don't be selective because President Obama was born in Hawaii.. Eh.

God help us if obama can buy this election, The man's a liar, He"ll say any thing,promise anything, He said he take matching funds, Look at his freinds , and his pals, Can't trust him, this Hillary supporter has allready voted for mccain.. PS. Hey people we need your help, Don't be scare of your 401's you are buying stock at half price after this bear market your stocks will be right back up there! Vote Mccain!!!!!!!

How much money GOP pays to Tainpower?

No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size. Government programs, once launched, never disappear. Actually, a government bureau is the nearest thing to eternal life we'll ever see on this earth!

This is the change that we need, no more war mongering. Thank you Mr President.

alright went back and reread your post jimmy. I dont know you're a republican but i dont wont people using that as an excuse not to elect Obama.

Tainopower-What are you? I know! A conspiracy theorist! What an idiot and fool.

Do ad toward last days – Roosevelt "fireside chat" type ad – addressing the fears of the people.

yes America will be better off four years from nor...why..?

BECAUSE PRESIDENT MCCAIN WILL PUT THE COUNTRY

BACK ON TRACK STARTING JEANUARY 20, 2008 THATS HOW.

In respnse to Tainopower's LIES.

Funny how this news hasn't made it to the TV. or the news that comes through this blog. Nice Try though got to give you one for creativity.

How about the TRUTH about McCain volunteers lying that they are attacked by Obama supporters in the most horrible ways. That McCain supporter was arrested for making false charges.

How about the TRUTH that Palin is talking about creating programs for disabled children and in the same breath insulting the study about fruit fly's that has lead to all the information that has HELPED Autistic children.

The TRUTH about Palin is she is an unqualified canidate and that is one of the TRUTH's why Tainopower tells lie's!

Tainopower, is your real name Ashley Todd?

Are you just another mentally-ill McCain supporter who would do or say anything to smear Obama?

I won't suggest you do research because you are clearly beyond reason or rational thought. I will suggest you look into getting psychological evaluation.

Cool! I look forward to being an agent of change to support challenges in the future. As for testing Senator Obama, I believe America is ready to face this challenge and support our country.

I thought we live in an enlightened world where facts and issues are meant to be what politcs should be about and not politics of hate and racism. Am I to believe white ladies are stupid to fall in love with blacks? and their children abomination to the world?

The world is now a better place to live by every single being and the opportunity that it offers.

With our woefully inadequate school system, maybe there are some who don't realize Hawaii is a state in the US. It was a territory until about 1953, well before Obama's birth. I remember the celebration and the new flag being raised at school with one more star, does anyone remember the 49 star flag, it did not last long as Alaska was admitted a few months latter as the 50th state.

McCain on the other hand was born in Panama another sovereign nation, in a military hospital at a time when this birth, outside of USA, did prevent him from the presidency. They changed the rule, to include off shore military hospitals in the US for this purpose, more lately when the military tired of transporting pregnant wives home for delivery so their probable "sons" would remain qualified to be president. McCain himself probably voted for this change in the Senate.

Will we better off four years from now with the same policies that we have had for the last four years – of course not! And as for the balance of power question – isn't that what we had for 6 years under Bush – how come now all of a sudden when it's the Democrats who will be in power, this is a bad thing? First of all, if it doesn't work well, in only two years the congressional power can shift again – so why not take the chance and see where things go – Obama knows he will be under a microscope and he has every motivation to get this right. Let's give him a chance! I mean, who would you rather have dinner with – the McCains or the Obamas? Let's face it, given the state of the country today, if Obama wasn't a Black man, this race would have been over months ago – give me a break!

I have family over in Canada. Brian Harper is the same as Bush thus comes the Hilary free trade BS that happened in Ohio. The Canadian government tried to throw this election long ago. And now Harper who is the Canadian Prime Minister is hoping that McCain wins because of how he is on free trade. Canada is in need of change too. Just ask any Canadian. They need their own Obama.

You know, I'm actually better off now then I was 4 and 8 years ago. NOW, I have a House, a nice looking car that runs great and a pretty good job that pays the bills.

However...

In 4 years, IF Obama becomes president, I expect to be jobless, living on the streets or in some Bomb Shelter praying that the Terrorists don't attack. Obama is a Pacifist and wants this Country to be just like Europe with his Socialist ideals. He's afraid to stand up to the bad guys and will turn tail and run when faced with aggression. Obama is a TALKER, not a DO'ER. Obama never has said what he will do with the Troops in Iraq, but he sure does say what he wants to do with the 10 billion we spend every month. So, is he going to stop funding the troops and pull them out day 1 in office? Yeah, that's real smart and show the world what a coward he is. It will be open season on the USA. Welcome to living in fear, cause this is what all you Democrats wanted.

If we elect Obama/Biden, we will be better off. GO VOTE!

Tainopower-Yes, and his real mother is a 2-headed Elvis clone. Go to your room and let the grownups talk...

I've never been able to understand why a Republican contributor is a 'fat cat' and a Democratic contributor of the same amount of money is a 'public-spirited philanthropist'.

Hey 'jimmy'

I guess YOU'RE HAPPY with the way YOUR PRESIDENT has RULED WITH THE VETO WAND.

WE NEED to GET RID of the REPUBLICANS and THE BUSH/MCCAIN MENTALITY.

Bumper Sticker Messages to ALL REPUBLICANS

'Those who can MAKE YOU BELIEVE ABSURDITIES can MAKE YOU COMMIT ATROCITIES'
'The problems we face WILL NOT be solved by the MINDS THAT CREATED THEM.'
'Obama & Biden–TWO MINDS are better than NONE'
'Obama/Biden–The CHOICE IS Black AND White

so jimmy didnt you just describe the first 6 six years under bush and a republican controlled congess and senate?

GOD bless obama,

to all those people that afraid and/or shame to say what is the real reason why they are against obama:let me help you "let it out":
THE ONLY REASON IS THAT OBAMA IS BLACK.
if obama was white,i am sure that the majourity of the people will vote for him.

SHAME ,SHAME,SHAME ON YOU.

P.S.
I AM WHITE.

How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin.

which one is obama

In response to Jimmy...I'd like to know your party affiliation....becasue I wonder if you felt the same way when the Republicans had control of the house and the senate and George Bush was President?

OBAMA, YOU ARE THE JOHN COLTRANE OF POLITICS!

OBAMA 08

From Jimmy:

"one party control of the entire Federal Government will subject Americans to have almost no power to object, oppose ,complain
about abuses of such concentation of power in one party."

Jimmy, then why are they being voted for by the very same people that you're suggesting should feel such a dread?

People are tired of the Republicans, they screwed up. And in US there is mainly a two party system. To figure out what's gonna happen is as easy as to do 1+1...

I guess what Colin Powell said will prove to be absolutely right. Electing Mr. Obama will not only eletrify America but it will sure electrify the world.

I think that the very fact that America is ready to elect a black guy to be the preisdent is such an achievement that can be compare to invention of a phone or antibitics only to the society as a whole. It really gives people more freedom when they don't bother about the race and do think about real issues. I would love to make a donation to Mr. Obama campaing. Alas I am russian and live in Moscow.

Igor

The challenges that await Obama are mind boggling. But my wife and I along with millions of Americans are confident that he will be up to the job. I never believed that in my lifetime I would be able to be a part of what we pray will be a history making moment – the election of Barack Obama. What pains me is the bad rap we older voters are getting from J.M. who is four days older than me. At least I still know a fraud when I see one! Go Barack! Now get out there and vote. Let's not give this one away.

Real CNN Comment Policy: Comments will be reviewed by CNN censorship monitors to insure posting of pro Obama, liberal material or material of a neo conservative nature placing non-liberals in a negative light. Please do not offer any crticism of the Obama campaign or its supporters as freedom of expression does not extend to those expressing views indicating an absence of socialist principals.

Tainopower is like a pesky mosquito buzzing around your ear.
Go back to your room, tain, the orderlies are looking for you.
Time for your medication.

First off, YES the whole couuntry will be better off in four years having had the pleasure of going through the leadership of Barack Obama and Joe Biden..

for "TAINPOWER" I too googled the Green County Dailies. No Such article. I see someone Posted THE REAl Article in another post on ticker here. People like you SHOULD NOT have the right to vote in ANY election in THIS COUNTRY.

What most people don't know is Hussein is a derrivation of the name Joseph!

Government's first duty is to protect the people, not run their lives.
Ronald Reagan

Hey Jimmy. I bet you were not complaining when the republicans had control of the presidency, as well as both houses of congress!

The Obama "Birth Flap" was not of Berg's making. It began in June when National Review's Jim Geraghty raised the question and asked the Obama Campaign to release a copy of his birth certificate in order to prove that he actually was born in the United States. (Reports had previously surfaced claiming that Obama's Kenyan grandmother, Sarah Hussein Obama, told reporters that Obama was not born in Hawaii, but in Kenya. She also reportedly told reporters that when her son, Barack Hussein Obama, Sr. returned to Kenya he was accompanied by his pregnant white wife who was close to term.)

Obama: Where is your TRUE birth certificate?

Now, that's an ad!

Four years from now? Not if Obama is elected... I'm pretty sure I'll be worse off financially and since we'll be a Communist country at that time, my human rights will be violated daily.

How is it that Obama can run illegally. He is deffently not a born U.S. citizen.That is the main thing running for President. I believe this race has been illegal from the begining ,vote frauds and all.I have read the federal laws and you deffently have to be born a U.S. citizen to run. Obama was born in Kenya and adopted Indoniesia.Does this country change the contitution and federal laws for this certain canidate. This is illegal as hell.iF this is the case a terroist could come over here in run.Thats an example. I think Obama should be suspened and HRC should be legally the nominee.This is all wrong.

Concentrated power has always been the enemy of liberty.
Ronald Reagan

Republicans, why don't you hear ads with this clear substance and thoughtful, respectful tone coming from your candidates? Your candidates snipe at other people like high schoolers. If Barack Obama was the kind of man who stooped to mudslinging, there is plenty he could sling at both of you. Obama doesn't sneer at you, he doesn't talk down to people, he doesn't communicate on a 3rd-grade level like W has done for 8 years. Our former allies around the world will stand with us once again when we elect a true leader, a man of high character and wisdom, Barack Obama.

If everyone can stand up for change and put Obama/Biden in the White House we will see the world as a brighter future. If Bush had good sense he would have voted for Obama because McCain/Palin has bashed him so bad that he needed to teach them a lesson and vote Obama. Wouldn't it be a dm shame for McCain if Bush cast his vote for Obama instead of McCain. Another Republican voting Obama.

Here it is again:

The republicans trying to fix the election by using the courts.

I guess they just can't win by getting votes.

the vision that obama has for the unted states requires that we "change" our form of governemnt from a democratic one to a socialist one and that we forgo all of our rights to the government so that the government can care for us all. with nancy and harrys help, it will happen...and there is nOTHING that anyone or any court can do about it. get used to living poor because we all will be soon enough and say goodbyr to ALL business because they will all go overseas, say goodbye to feeling safe because our military will be weak and will not go to wars to defend us. we will all live in government housing, eating govt rations, working for the ggovernement and letting the governement take it all away as soon as we get it.

This is easily one of the most presidential adverts that has been aired for a long time. It is truly refreshing to hear Senator Barack Obama outlining his plans for fixing the problems. in contrast, the GOP, McSenile & Pailing continue to address Obama's skin color and other immaterial subjects that have absolutely nothing to do with running a country.

Perhaps the swearing-in date should be brought forward to Nov. 5, 2008.

GOBAMA/BIDEN '08 FOR LEADERSHIP THAT IS RELEVANT.

TAINPOWER,

I HAVE ANNOUNCEMENT FOR YOU:

" I JUST USED MY BRAIN TO VOTE FOR OBAMA" USE YOUR COMMON SENSE. YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE A COLLEGE GRAD TO DO THIS. THIS APPLIES TO OTHER REPS TOO.

THANKS

jimmy October 25th, 2008 1:02 pm ET

A Democratic Senate with Harry Reid ; A house of Representative by Speaker Pelosi and a Democratic President Obama will do away tih the BALANCE OF POWER in the Federal Government and bodes danger to our National well being and our constitutional rights.
one party control of the entire Federal Government will subject Americans to have almost no power to object, oppose ,complain
about abuses of such concentation of power in one party.
Our Constitution was designed by Patriotic, Intelligent and selfless
Statemen to keep the balance of power in the Federal government
precisely to prevent Corruption and abue of power.
AS THE SAYING GOES: ABSOLUTE POWER CORRUPTS ABSOLUTELY..
------------------------------–

Yeah, it does corrupt absolutely, if you're a REPUBLICAN. Guess we all got to see that with the greedy, arrogant, Rethugs when they controlled all three houses of Congress and ran wild with our money. We have never seen corruption and greed like that in a Democratic-controlled Congress. Until all three houses are controlled by Dems, you don't know what will happen. If even ONE house is controlled by Resluglicans, there will be gridlock and nothing will get done just like what is occurring now. There needs to be one party controlling it all this cycle so we can get our country back on track. Republicans always foul up and make a mess of our money and country and Democrats always seem to have to come in and clean up after those greedy maggots.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm getting tired of the constant political tv ads. This campaign has gone on forever. Isn't the election over yet??

CNN
Why do you allow taiopower to post lies? He always posts first and it is always a lie or a smear that has been proven to be false.
I don't care that he supports McCain. I enjoy an opposing view. But, he posts out and out lies!
Please CNN MODERATE TAINOPOWER

What a great AD, keep talking to the American people and just leave Mcpalin with their fear mongering, hate and divisive campaign. We have had enough of the last eight years and we need something new for the future.
Go Obama/Biden

We need to show the world that we have intelligent people in US to elect for president.

JIMMY THE REPUBLICAN PARTY SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT OF THAT BEFORE THEY RAN THIS COUNTRY IN THE DOGGONE GROUND.

The Democrats NEED to be in control! They HAVE to clean up the mess left by the Re'lic' party and it is going to take not only ALL of them, but, us too! It's not going to be easy and if ANY Re'lic party member is left in Washington, they will just filibuster, drag their feet and cry. We need to elect the people of the people! Not the people of the CEOS! No more dragging your feet and ripping off the American taxpayers! I, for one, would like to be better off 4 years from now and NOT worse off than I currently am. How about you? Really, think about that!

People are silly to worry about the Democrats controlling Congress with Obama in the Whtie House. First, I don't believe the Senate will get 60 Democrats, a fillibuster proof majoritey. 2nd, we hold elections every 2 years and if the party in charge abuses their power, they can always get voted out. Finally, it's not like this has never happened before.. Change will be good for America. Vote Democrat! Vote for OBAMA!

Not if obama wins. 1-1-2011 Bush Tax cuts expire (if not sooner under Democrat controlled everything).

On that day ALL Americans taxes automatically go up.

Make Bush Tax Cuts permanent and add more on top.

Child tax credit is now $1000 per child. 1-1-2011 it goes to $700.

You do the math and remember Barney Frank already wants to repeal Bush's tax cuts....same thing with Pelosi.

Impressive ad. It's hard to comprehend the obstinate position of McCain/Palin supporters. "Kool-ade" "Obamanots" etc. it seems as if they have degenerated the argument to name calling in a last ditch effort to avoid using logic and reason, because using logic and reason would require a change of position (Voting Obama/Biden), and they can't do that. Either that or racism really does still exist in the U.S. and is rearing its ugly head in our politics.

This ad is about unification and tackling the problems we all face, very impressive. A message everyone should be able to get behind.

The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help.
Ronald Reagan

PLEASE, PLEASE PEOPLE WE ALL KNOW that the PALIN/MCCAIN campaign has been so filled with hypocracies it's no longer funny.

These people, as well as THEIR 'KOOLAIDE DRINKING' FOLLOWERS, are spewing HATE, RASCISM, NATZI-ISM, DIVISION,ETC. Just look at this woman that, LIKE SUSAN SMITH, tried to blame her self-inflicted injuries on a BLACK OBAMA SUPORTER.

THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS INSITING TO HAPPEN.

THEY are the one's at VOTING STATIONS with the HATEFUL, RACIST SIGNS. THEY are the one's slinging ALL the dirt and inuendos. THEY are the one's BRINGING DIVISION to this country. THEY are the RIGHT WING CHRISTIAN HYPOCRITS who CLAIM to LOVE ALL but really HATE EVERYONE NOT LIKE THEM.

VOTE OBAMBA/BIDEN
VOTE FOR PEACE AND UNITY
VOTE DEMOCRAT
VOTE VOTE VOTE

SHOW THE REPUBLICANS THEY NO LONGER CONTROL ANYTHING.

IF McCain were to be elected, and IF the dems were to control congress, he would not be able to do much while in power. SO John's statement of because of the congressional races, they should vote for him is a bit out of touch with reality.

Palin is a back stabber...he did it to the mayor who introduced her in politics, to the governor who introduce her to the oil industry, now to mc cain...i don't trust her...

tainopower,
Point is, even if he really wasn't a 'natural born’ or ‘naturalized’ citizen, I would not care. He still cares as much about the United States as anyone, and I think he is the perfectly right candidate. This non-sense about having to be strictly born in the United States is redundant, it doesn't say anything about anyone's patriotism. You feel what you feel, and you do what you feel. Obama feels he is the perfect next president of the United States, and he should have all the rights to be were he to not be an "official" american. Or tell all the people that have lived here all their lives and feel proud of being "americans" (an incorrect term) and feel and know they have all the rights as anyone who was born here should have.
I guess what I'm trying to say is: I would still vote for him.

Take 'NO PRISONERS", that means do not take McCain.

The only hope we have is Obama. McCain has proven over 26 years as a senator, in his first marriage, and as a serviceman that he is an utter and total failure in all he touches. We can not afford to have a man with a track record of failure to be the next POTUS.

We need someone that will protect us in these tough times.....the only man capable of doing that is the one who has not failed his first wife, has not failed his fellow country men by making propoganda films and has not failed his fellow veterans by voting against their benefits time after time after time. We need a man that has honor, integrity and wisdom. We need Obama!

Do not take this election for granted....in ANY state: GET OUT AND VOTE YOUR BUTTS OFF!

I voted for Obama. While I stood in that 2 Hour long line Thursday, I was thinking about the future. I want a President that people like, I want a President that is smart, I want a President that will fight for working people, I want a President that will engauge the American People, and I want a President that will use the American Milltary as designed.

I voted for all Dem this year, it is time to throw the Republican Party out of our Nations Capital-They caused this mess.

That's the way a president should speak. Compare Senator Obama's coherent inspiration to Senator McCain's fearful sneering and Joe the Plumber.

Wow, I cant wait until Nov. 5th when we can call Barack Obama, Mr. President. He is an inspriation to all.

I live in TEXAS which is a RED state, but I am praying that some how it will turn BLUE. Oh it would be a happy day.

What a magnificent ad. This ad is totally focused on the issues of the day and does not even mentioned McCain.

The McCain/Palin ads cannot come even close. All their ads focus on are attacks on Obama without offering an iota's worh of solutions.

McCain has become a dishonorable presidential candidate and will end his campaign without any dignity.

Jimmy – The Constitution doesn't say we have to have separate parties in Congress and the White House. The three co-equal branches of government are the balance of power in itself. Learn some basic civics.

Jimmy – you mean like we had with Bush and the republicans until two years ago?

Powerful message, this guy who says that we will not have the balance of power, well, we give bush and his congress 6 long years why not give the democrat the same chance, double standards !

His ad should say, will you be better off four years from now, once I have turned my back on everything Democrats stand for. I've already voted for the Cheney Energy Bill and FISA, I've praised the overturning of hand gun ban laws, I've called a war criminal a hero and accepted his endorsement, by the time my four years are up, I'm sure you won't recognize your country or the Democratic Party. No thanks Mr Obama, please keep your version of hope and change.

I just finished watching a McCain rally on TV. I do not know how anyone can think McCain is better suited to take on the multiple challenges facing the USA. He offers know specifics, he jumbles his words numerous times throughout his speach and he simply tries to yell out as many "patriotic" lines as possible. "I won't let us lose in Iraq, we'll come home victorious !", "Get up and fight, stand up in fight, stand up in fight, let's fight for the USA", etc. It sounds pathetic if you ask me!

He also continues to call Obama a socialist, but now he wants to buy a considerable amount of bad mortgages to prevent foreclosures, I'm not saying its a terrible idea, but it kills his argument agains Mr. Obama. McCain is simply confused and doesn't know what the hell to do next. I don't know how anyone could believe he would be a better choice than Obama.

Andrew

I don't believe I will be better off in four years, regardless of who becomes President. I do believe the nation will be better off if Barack Obama becomes our President, I believe he will restore the influence, and respect America has lost internationally through GW Bush's presidency. I'm on long-term disability from an SCI, so I expect my standard of living to drop, I hold no delusions, I live on charity. I just hope Obama can restore the respect the U.S. once held from nations, and people across the globe. When America succeeds, I get the luxury of living through their successes, and it's (almost) like I am a part of it. Even if the feeling lasts only minutes a day, that's not bad, it could be a lot worse.

We will forever change the way campaigns are run if we elect Barack Obama. We will send a huge message to Karl Rove, Steve Schmidt, Rush Limbaugh, O'Reilly, Hannity and the rest of Fox Friends, that the time of divisive and racist politics is over. Never again will we allow these scoundrels to use fear to get our vote. Never again will we let them define us! Never again will we allow them to question our patriotism and our love for this country. We will force them to take a hard look in the mirror, and see that it is them who are the problem.

I believe that it's time the undecided voters made a choice – and that choice shouldn't be too difficult anymore. It's a choice between a candidate who has completely removed his focus from the issues paramount on the minds of the Americans today – and decided to push forward childish, affected, and ultimately futile negative comments and a candidate who responsibly provides inspiration to Americans, lets them know about the wonderful solutions he has to the financial crisis and America as a whole. So, make your choice; I need not even mention any candidate's name.

If Obama is elected, I believe the answer will be "YES"! I will be better off.

Awesome ad. Those who are driven by hate, divisiveness and fear won't bother listening to it. But those who are truly seeking the candidate who will work to make 4 years better than today cannot help but to sit up and take notice.

Yep, Barack Obama gives me hope, something that has been seriously lacking these last 8 years and with hope, we can bring the US to the place our founding fathers envisioned – one nation, indivisible.

The majority of us can answer that question truthfully, and the answer is no. Good ad Obama. I have already casted my vote, and it was casted for Obama, the one I know can bring change.

We'll definitely be better off - with McCain/Palin !!!!!!!!!!

Message from ACORN:

Vote as often as you can - we're here to help you!

This is beyond a great advertisement.

It is the kind of leadership I want for my country.

Regina, please spell out in specific detail how the lying, fear mongering, and factually misguided McCain / Palin ticket is better for America than the message of hope and unity. Please spell out in detail how the candidate that refuses to talk about the issues facing the people, because by admission of his own campaign, would result in him losing is better for America. Try and do it without the experience argument, as that's crap (in regards to Obama and Palin both). Oh and leave out the half-hearted attempts at smears as it's clear the overwhelming majority of Americans don't see any issues there. Thanks!

AS THE SAYING GOES: ABSOLUTE POWER CORRUPTS ABSOLUTELY..

It appears that a lot of pro-McCain/Palin folks are scared of Obama. The scary tactics worked for Bush – the folks were scared of Osama. In the meantime, we were ripped off by Enrons, Abramoffs, Blackwaters, Halliburtons.... they had their day – no taxes, no government controls!
What is the Joe-the-Plumber is scared of? It can't be the taxes as the Reps picture it – there is no way Joe will ever make 250K. The only explanation I have is that the Joe six-pack is scared of Blacks. Don't be. Obama will lead by example, and this is a good chance for the States of America to be UNITED.

well said obama !! you inspire america once again !! my whole family is voting you you !! obama/biden 08,12

We will not be better off 4yrs. from now if Obama is elected. His tax and spend policies will not stop. I know you think it will only be the rich, but if you look at his record, he voted to tax people making much less than 250,000 a year. He want open elections for unions, no more secret ballots. Do you think that those elections will be fair and honest elections? Look up the rest of his policies and really think about what he wants to do in this country. I have lived long enough to know that you should look more at what people actually have done than what they say.

obama you have my vote... 8 years was enough

Obama keeps putting out these positive "Here's what I'm gonna do" ads.

What's the amtter with him?

Doesn;t he GET it!?

negative is the way to go!

Right?

Er...right?

Uh...right?

No...Wrong.

Obama/Biden 2008/2012.

Because.

That is the right message. We are Americans and can do anything we put our minds to. I love it that Barack is so inclusive.
In these last days the McCain campaign still wants to divide us and say we are not "For America" unless we vote for him
This American has cast her vote for the Uniter and our next President
Bakack Obama

Pat

Did you return your last stimulus check? It's not to late to give that money back to the IRS. After all your family doesn't need any "soup".

It's great that your doing so well, but some people aren't.

This is the REAL contrast.
McCain ads attack, spreading fear, hate, and negativity.
Obama also has attacks though only in response to attack ads against him, but tends more towards focusing on hope instead of fear.

That is McCain's fatal flaw: because both of them are focused on Obama, he has gotten all the attention he needed to win.

Obama is up by 1% in GA according to most recent poll, repubs better get down there.....

Are you better off than you were 2 years ago since the Democrats took over our US Congress? We all know the answer to that since our economy started its dive 1 year ago. The Congressional Democrats who played hardball by preventing the regulation of Fannie and Freddie are 100% guilty as charged for our current financial crisis. Obama does not want to focus on the past because he, too, is guilty for this mess. He helped ACORN bully banks to give sub-prime loans and to pay him back his financial advisor Frank Raines & other Fannie pals donated over $125k to Obama. The liberal press is guilty for helping cover up Obama's corruption. Vote Republican and throw the ones who created this mess out!

If Obama becomes President, we will not be better off.

Honestly americans lets bring back the glory and respect that was due to us 8years ago that now seem to dwindle down. As a clear example of democracy lets show the whole what we are made up of.

Not at all with the same on party we need the dems to clean it up

These are the ads that voter want to see. Not Mcbush's ads which is not
about the people but Barack

Good ad. Don't pay attention to John Mccain's negative ad and his negative talk. Just make sure that people know that you do not want to raise taxes on Americans. Stay positive and don't pay attention to polls, Keep campaigning hard and people will make sure that you become the next president of US, because you are a far better leader than John Mccain. No If or but about it..

WE ARE GOING TO BE BETTER OFF, AS A NATION,

FOR EVER FOR ELECTING BARACK OBAMA.

BE A PART OF OUR FUTURE. GET OUT & VOTE.

Everytime I hear him speak, I want to do and be a better person and a better citizen!

We have faith in your Barack! bring it home in 9 days!!!!

For me the most terrifying thought of Big Mac being elected is that were something to happen to him look what we would be stuck with to guide our country, a woman who when she wants a new fur coat just goes out and shoots it. She appears to be just another boondoggeling republican who has no concept of what the "normal Joe" needs to get by.

We need for something to change. There is no way that this country can survive if things continue on the same course as we have been and my belief is that is exactly what would happen were McCain to be elected.

I am just wondering as if to how many people are going to actually show up on Election Day? Because all of these people talk about who they are going to vote for but people have trouble over actually going to the voting booths, apparently.

This is my 11 years old comments.

Go Barack Obama!!!!!!!
You will be a great president for U.S.A!!!

How My Life Will Be In Four Years , Depends On Me , Not Obama ! . I'm Not Going To Put My Future In The Hands Of A Media Created Trend , Does Obama , And The Media Really Think , We Can't Survive Without Him ?.

We Have Before , And We Will Again .

This man and his campaign are absolutely brilliant. Taking a tired old backwards-looking refrain and revitalizing to look forward. Amazing and simple.

I love this ad. It is so evident that he has the ability to unite and lead us through all of the mess we are in. I know that the Republicans and the McCain camp would want the country to believe that we should be in fear if the Democrats take over with a majority in all facets of our government. But this is what it has come to. This is the only way we will be able to get things done and move forward into the future with a set of policies that support everyone and not just the few. Additionally, I think that I am not alone in saying that Obama will be a different kind of leader. If anyone has read his books, The Audacity of Hope especially, it is so clear that his intelligence and inquisitive nature make him less prone to partisan extremes, providing the balance we need and have been waiting for for a long, long time.

This is the real deal in driving home the message of change.

I already voted for Obama! I have never felt this excited since Bill Clinton won his second term! Obama is such a wonderful breath of fresh air! I absolutely hope every republican seat is taken and they are all kicked to the curb for destroying this country. Of course there are a few democracts who need to join them, specifically Pelosi and Reid for not impeaching the idiot who is playing president. By the way I gave up my party affiliation with the democracts when Pelosi screwed us, I now am an independent but think Obama is just right for our country at this time.

HIS MESSSAGES ARE GOOD BUT HOW COME HE TAKES NO QUESTIONS EVER
HE IS A ONE WAY TALK WRENCH

I'm voting for "That One" otherwise there is a big chance that the next 4 yrs will look like the stone age.

Terrific add.

As a Canadian watching from outside the political mayhem across our shared boarder, I never did understand how McCain can knock investing for the future in exchange for staying the course on spending . McCain needs to know the diference between Investment strategies and Negligent spending habits. He supports the same principles that has built a huge National debt, of almost $11 trillion and a $44 trillion unfunded liability for social security and medicare. Obama has an investment strategy that will transform America for a bright future.

Good look Obama/Biden. Good Luck America.

barack obama is great...i am an afghan and closely follow the US election. he is an inspirational leader...he will make a difference in the world...i apeal to all americans that plz vote for this young leader... he is good for america and for the world too....

MY FAMILY HAS 9 OBAMA VOTES COMING IN FLORIDA; MUST WIN! I TOO AM FLOODED WITH MCCAIN SIGNS IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD, INCLUDING MY NEIGHBOR, BUT I DISPLAY MY OBAMA/BIDEN SIGN WITH PRIDE!

I PRAY WE WIN BECAUSE MY SONS GO TO COLLEGE IN 3 YEARS, AND MCCAIN WANTS AN ALL AROUND SPENDING FREEZE EXCEPT FOR IRAQ, WHICH MEANS IRAQIS GET TO BUILD SCHOOLS TO GO TO, BUT MY CHILDREN CAN NOT GET MONEY FOR COLLEGE. THOSE PRIORITIES ARE BACKWARDS!

OBAMA/BIDEN '08

No negative and smears of McCain...only the truth. That's why so many conservatives and republicans will vote for Obama. We need a new positive change and Obama will bring it!

My vote, hope and prayers follow Obama while on his way to the future of my children and grandchildren. Tears of rejoice will be shared by other Americans who share my dreams and visions on the eve of Nov. 4, 2008. Vote, baby, vote!

Obama team thanks for the job well done. I feel soooooo good.

Sara Palin and Mcain must be stopped . The war will never end. If Mcain wins we will be no better off.

Obama 08

WE WILL BE BETTER OFF FOR THE

NEXT 100 YEARS & MORE, BY ELECTING YOU SIR.

GOD LOVE YOU & PROTECT OUR NEW PRESIDENT.

Getting Mr.Obama in office will be such a need and cant wait until he makes this great nation smile again.

Great add

"… and making sure that every child gets the education they (sic)[SIC] need to compete."

Perfectly acceptable use of the singular "they". This is an example of a "semantically bound variable", and has been employed in written and spoken English since Shakespeare used it in 1594. In any case, it's infinitely preferable to polluting your prose with "he/she". Etymological Luddites will continue to foam at the mouth for the foreseeable future, but trust your own common sense and ignore them.

So, to the original writer, please, simply report what BO said and spare us your editorial comments.

elect that obama thing and in six months you will all muzzlims.
Enjoy the demise you have planed for your country.

I feel so good....$50.00 more to champain...

President BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA, how sweet it is...Looking forward to officially using it with pride...

President Barack Obama! Can`t wait. Awesome ad.....I sent it to my undecided friends. Thanks Obama! Looking forward to the next 4 years and beyond.

Obama/ Biden 08/12 VOTE NOV. 4TH

Way to go O!!

Like we said it before and GEN Powell repeated:

"Our strenght lies in our diversity."

Unified, America will stand together and look to the future with
great hope.

Let's leave a better future to our kids!!
America can't afford to be wrong this time around.
The world has started a new realignment and we need a non-stuborn leader to put us in the best place possible.
Good luck to your candidate.

I voted. Make yours count!!

Go bless!!
OSIRIS

Great ad for a future President.
No negativity like the McCain ads .
How refreshing!!!

Obama /Biden 2008

Excellent ad. Not one mention of John McCain. It was all about the plan. Outstanding.

What another brilliant campaign move. This says to independent voters like myself that Obama is focused and serious about the daunting job ahead of him. He has moved beyond the back and fourth of campaigning and firmly into presidential mode as a new welcome face to lead this country instead of to tear down the opposite party. If he really hammers this I see certain victory.

Republican sleaze??

Has the party always been this bad and I just woke up?

John you are an honorable man, but it looks as if the party accomodates the lowest of the low. It should be American party first .

The Republican Party has taken over the minds of the churches, the media ie Fox and any dirty trick to get their way.

I have been accused of being a war monger, greedy and others choice words. I guess now I know they are right after watching Bush, Chaney and Rove and because I vote Republican. Voted Rebublican.

Not you too.

I regret any vote I cast for a Repug.

If you love our country and want to help, concentrate on cleaning up your party and get the riff-raff out. Then I might come back.

Send them all to Dubuy with Chaney.
Sincerely
A broken hearted voter

THIS NATION WILL BE BETTER OFF

FOR EVER FOR ELECTING YOU !!!!

Yes, it's time for a POSITIVE change. That's Obama's message and promise. The opposition is putting nothing positive forth. How many times can they put out lies such as Obama not being a citizen,etc.? It is so easy to check out the facts (factcheck.org, etc ) and see what is real and what is hate inspired fear. Who has time for rumors? Make time to vote for a change we can all make happen together. And finally, we have a presidential candidate supported by some pretty influential members of the opposing party too. Make hope a noun-not a verb. Vote Obama

Barack – wanted to say sorry that your grandmother is so ill at this time in your life. I know she is very proud of you – she did a very good job to help you in your life and obviously was a very good influence. Go all Grandmothers (and pa's too) love and nurture your grandchildren – we can stand by our grandchildren and hopefully point them on a good path! (that can be for others in the community when the grandparents can't be there for the children).

The real question of course is HOW COULD WE BE ANY WORSE OFF than we are now after 8 years of rotten Bush and the GOP......

John McCain has sold his soul.. I heard his speech in New Mexico today and i couldn't believe the lies, attacks and half truths that can out of his mouth..He has learned the Atwater,Rover book on politics very well..Try to scare the voter with fear and Lie.. Lie .. Lie.

YOU'RE INSULTING THE INTELLIGENCE OF THE AVERAGE VOTER
WITH ANOTHER PROPAGANDA SMEAR. THESE TYPE OF ATTACKS ARE LAUNCHED BY FOLLOWERS OF ULTRA RIGHT-WING CONSERVATIVE RADICALS, WHO THINK THAT PATRIOTISM IS AN IDEOLOGY THAT ENCOURAGES INNUENDOS, DISTORTIONS AND OUT-RIGHT LIES!

"A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is
putting on its shoes." –Mark Twain

Character Counts. Obama's steady hand won my early vote in CA

McCain is Bush all over again, and Palin has been plundering the Alaskan budget like it's her personal piggy bank. McCain has admitted he doesn't understand the economy and Palin would rather go shoppings at Saks than study government. Nobody in their right mind would vote for these two. That's why so many top-level Republicans are jumping ship. They don't love Obama/Biden, but they're terrified of McCain/Palin.

Can you imagine the terrible ads McCain's campaign would have made if the GOP attacker story in Pittsburgh had been true? And of course, they would have blamed Obama.

Earl voting has been awesome, great turnouts!! .

what a load of bull

nice one, another breath of fresh air from the winning team...

Please, please stop with all the lies and know the facts before you post. That is all that I will say on that negative post.

Wonderful ad Barack Obama! Continue to focus on the future and you will win this election!

TO ANSWER YOU SIR PRESIDENT,

NO, WE ARE NOT GOING TO BE BETTER OFF IN THE

NEXT 4 YEARS ONLY. WE ARE GOING TO BE BETTER

OF F FOR THE NEXT 8 YEARS, BECAUSE YOU WILL DO

AN EXTRAORDINARY JOB & WE WILL ELECT YOU AGAIN.

Great ad by a perfect campaign. If he runs the country like he ran his campaign, we have hope.

It seems the majority of comments are anti McCain , and very childish. Why do they all have so much time to write in their "comments" . I have been thinking they need to go to work , do something creative . If Obama is elected , it will be such a let down , because they are still left with their own thoughts and feelings

This is a very nice attractive ad, I like that!! This is why I like the obama campaign, most of the time it's been trying to stay positive most of the time unlike the mccain campaign which really look so negative.

OBAMA 08

Negative campaigning= Negative results
Positive campaigning = Positve results

John McCain is a maverick!!!

Hi I live in Canada and I still can't understand how you voted twice for Bush....don't make a third mistake. It's time you vote for an intelligent leader! Obama of course!

Tainopower:

How can your party ever generate real solutions when you focus on attacks (not real issues) and your lies generate divisiveness?

GO OBAMA / BIDEN!

why is the McCain-Palin signs out number the Obama-Biden signs. Is it that latter does not believ in them
Closer to election what you on the raods matter. So in addition to ads Obama should also put Decals all over – esp common areas
Never understimate the poer of negative tactics of Republicans. it does scare people and change mind

TAINOPOWER–Whatever is that blog name is supposed to mean!

YOU'RE INSULTING THE INTELLIGENCE OF THE AVERAGE VOTER

"A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes." –Mark Twain

Exactly what Presidential ads should look like! Saying what you will do, not talking about the guy. McCain should take a look at this ad and then look at his ads, quite a difference!

I love the ad!!!!

Barack Obama's message was awesome!! He gets down to the roots of the problems we are facing here in America. Let's not forget he will end this wortless war in Iraq that's sucking billions and billions of dollars from the US economy. WE NEED CHANGE, VOTE FOR OBAMA!

Great ad, great man!
I will love having an intelligent president and one who makes me feel so safe.
Bush didn't do such a great job keeping us safe on 9/11 when he was tested did he? As we all know every prez is tested. Obama and Biden are men of steel. Just watching Obama with his two little girls makes me feel safe. Dads will do anything to protect their family. And everyone knows how strong Biden is.
This country will be so blessed to have two of the greatest men in office.

Bravo!

This was a clear message, short and oh so sweet. I already voted on Friday. My whole family voted on Friday. Don't wait until Nov. 4th. If you can go and do it now – go vote.

I jusr heard McCain say he has been fighting for this country since he was 17. Another lie. His time at the Naval Academy was nothing but 4 years of drinking, women chasing and making failing graded. This man is no maverick. He is a liar.

I already voted for Obama in fact I voted Dems all across the board unless there wasnt one listed LOL

Go Go GO..... Lets get our nation back on track with a GREAT LEADER and will end up being one of the Greatest leaders of our time. I dont care if a leader is black white or Purple. There are Leaders in all shades in all Origins. As long as it puts us back where we belong and helps us get out of the Mess Bush put us in.. Then I am for it!!

This ad is a breath of fresh air......... compared to what I am listening to right now, from McCain on CNN. He has no constructive specifics to orate to the people, ideas with no substance. " my friends". LOL

WE ARE GOING TO BE MUCH BETTER OFF,

FOR CERTAIN, BECAUSE WE ARE ELECTING YOU.

Nothing his campaign has said is remotely convincing that any of our lives, rich or poor, will be better off in four years.

The cost to American small business too great, the offer to the poor and disadvantaged is too little to make any significant impact on their lives in the long haul.
And the Dems are planning an additional 300 billion dollar 'stimulus' spending package as we speak banking on an Obama victory–to add to the staggering debt we already have.
The way they are spending... the rich need to stay super rich, because someone needs to be available with the cash to fund the loans for this government BS the rest of us will be paying for and paying for and paying for.

Too bad.

Sorry, Tainopower. Just Googled Greene County Dailies. No such article. Try again.

The hatemongering in this election is beyond frightening. Whatever are you guys really afraid of?

Obama/Biden 2008

Great ad . . . by the way, is BO a Landmark Education grad? Seems like it. Folks keep drinking the Kool Aid. McCain is the better choice.

Thanks for the daily laugh TAINOPOWER. You are a riot! Get a life!

wow taino power get a life...you must be an Mccain supporter twisting everything like them......shame shame tal para cual

TO: TAINOPOWER

You must be either getting your info from FOX news or doing some major editing to the facts.

Judge rejects Montco lawyer's bid to have Obama removed from ballot

A federal judge in Philadelphia last night threw out a complaint by a Montgomery County lawyer who claimed that Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama was not qualified to be president and that his name should be removed from the Nov. 4 ballot.

Judge Surrick ruled that Berg's attempts to use certain laws to gain standing to pursue his claim that Obama was not a natural-born citizen were "frivolous and not worthy of discussion."

The judge also said the harm Berg alleged did "not constitute an injury in fact" and Berg's arguments to the contrary "ventured into the unreasonable."

For example, Berg had claimed that Obama's nomination deprived citizens of voting for Sen. Hillary Clinton in November. (Berg backed Clinton in the primaries.)

Berg could not be reached for comment last night.

Obama was born in Honolulu on Aug. 4, 1961, and the campaign posted a document issued by Hawaii on its Web site, fight thesmears.com, confirming his birth there.

Berg said in court papers that the image was a forgery.

The nonpartisan Web site FactCheck.org examined the original document and said it was legitimate.

Further, a birth announcement in the Aug. 13, 1961, Honolulu Advertiser listed Obama's birth there on Aug. 4. *

What a great ad. Obama speaks from the heart and has the brains to make things happen. Get out and vote for Obama!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TAINOPOWER,

You make no arguments for your candidate i'm guessing is John McCain? You just want people to read articles from some pastor that's so far to the right that he ends up back at the beggining. You are the exact type of person that drives fear mongering in an attemp to divide this country.You don't speak for the vast majority of americans and you certainly don't have any ideas to move this country forward. And although you have a right to your opinions please go back to your conspiracy theories and your short wave radio and leave the politics to the people who know better.

vote hope not fear! vote for what brings you up, not what brings everyone down! vote for what is the best in us, not what is worse in us! Go Obama!

To Taintopower:

You obviously have no clue.

Wonderful add.

I like that he has an actual plan. I have always appreciated his calm thoughtfull approach to solving problems.

I would love for him to win the election and be our next President.

O B A M A

I just heard McCain making a speech in N.M. How pathetic. His mouth was moving–so I am sure he was lying. I can't belive those people believe his lies. How pathetic! This man should be put in a cage. He is dangerous. Simple minded people believe this crap sandwich stuff. GO OBAMA.

TAINOPOWER... Still nothing on the news? Watching news and I live in Pennsylsvania. Another one of McCain?Palin.

What planet are you from, oh yeah, the MCCAIN/PALIN PLANET. If this was breaking news, it would be all over our news, the DNC checks and rechecks, guess what, he deliver it.

McCain would have been making this breaking news months ago, go to your planet of McCain... Simply enough, join Palin and her fight to cease from the Union, it is called Alaskan Independence Party.

Obama is for uniting this country. McCain/Palin wish to divide this country by using scare tactics designed to have us feel that a vote for Obama is a vote for complete anhilation after election day. McCain's latest ad is a perfect example. It shows a horror flick of doom if Obama is elected. What will happen on Nov 5th if Obama is elected? I believe we will have approximately 42% of the population heading for a bomb shelter expecting the worst. What will really happen is that Obama will speak to the American people and work hard to put back the word united in United States. The McCain campaign is perpetrating a hate crime against Americans with his divisive rhetoric and he should be forced to stop! McCain and Palin DO NOT put their country first. They only put themselves first.

Thanks President Obama, a friend of mind just today said that they lost 90 thousand dollars out of the 401k and at age 65 have to go back to work, now that BS Go home McSame and take your conrads with you now gettt!

Barack Obama and Joe Biden have run campaigns based
on change, hope for the future, returning our country to
the once great nation it once was and uniting America.
Mccain/palin have run campaigns based on anger, fear,
attacks, lies and have tried to divide our country.
Now I ask you, who is best to lead our country?
It is a no brainer.

If McCain gets in, he'll be a lame duck from day one – ha ha hah ahhahahhahah

Good people of America as Joe Biden says, "Stand Up". Stand up for what is right and good about this country. Stand Up to the bigotry and hatred that has long held this country down. Good people we can put a lid on the racist once again.

What does it say to the world when a little girl is on camera acting like and making monkey sounds, with parents in tow. Children yelling that they don't want a monkey in the White House and adults all around laughing and patting them on the back. How disgusting and they call themselves real Americans.

If this is an example of real Americans, then shame on us.

Good People, STAND UP!!!

We will be better off for sure after we throw out the repubs that failed the country for 8 years. The people's anger are palpable and that means they are going to vote for every democrat they can find to show and express their frustration with the repubs.

The people through their contribution to Obama's campaign have express a deep need for change in a new direction and Nov. 4th is no exception, the people's voice will be heard loud and clear.

Landslide Obama/Biden 08/12.

John McCain is not ready to give up the fight, that you will lose...

I believe this ad is great and I can only hope that the american people see him for what he is and will be as PRESIDENT OBAMA, Greattttttttttttttttt!

Wow!! I have been a Republican all my life and have voted so accordingly but this year I have been so impressed with the content and stature of Barack Obama. For the first time in my life I will be casting my vote (early) for Obama/Biden.

This ad is AMAZING!! I have been so impressed at how Obama has refused to get into a back and forth mud slinging contest with the McCain/Palin ticket. He has truly chosen the high road and I believe that with everyone's help, that road will lead him straight to the white house!

Please vote early if you can but even if you have to wait until the 4th..VOTE. Don't let us, as a nation, blow the opportunity to get back on track with a TRUE leader!

Simply amazing. I can't wait to call him "President Obama"

This ad is the reason why Obama will win the election. His plan makes sense, he has stayed on message and not resorted to mudslinging and character attacks. He is the person we need to run this country.

GOP whining in 3....2....1....

Not if McCain/Palin are elected we will be destroyed with 4 more years bush policies,which will continue under McCain... I heard some of his speech this morning until i couldn't lisen to anymore of his lies and half truths.. He will say or do anything to get elected...Lies.. Lies.. Lies..

i was better off in 1998

It's great to see that his campaign is playing positive ads leading up to election day!

I dread to see what John McCain will come up with in these last ten days...

Yes! I will be better off in four years if Barack Obama is elected.

Obama is my hero.

THAT'S what a true, sincere representative of we, the people sounds like. Great ad, nothing negative and he tells us HOW he's going to do it. Yay!!

Excellent add. No attacks just the facts.

False. Barack Obama is, in fact, a natural-born citizen of the United States, for the simple reason that he was born on American soil (in Hawaii, two years after it acquired statehood). The age and citizenship status of Obama's parents at the time have no bearing on Obama's own citizenship.

Nice try! Are there any intelligent conservatives remaining. Tainpower, do you think after all this time – an essential thing like citizenship would just be blatantly overlooked. Dream on!

What can i say!!!!!!!!!Excellent ad

Great ad!
PS Who is this Barack Obama upstart? Sounds smart!

Yes Barack our country will be better off four years from now because YOU will be the President of our United States!
Obama/Biden in 08!

It will be a better country when Obama wins the election.

I can't believe people could actually vote for MCsame. A rich guy who wants the power of the White House. Sad to see how he has given up his morals.

Sara is getting used to the rich live even before she comes to Washington. 150,000 in new clothes is a lot for a hockey mom.

INCREDIBLE!!! At a time when McCain continues to be a broken record; talking about "Joe the plumber' who doesn't even want to campaign with McCain; and watching the mud he slings in his ads; this was a breath of fresh air. Thank You, Senator Obama.

Got Get'em OBAMA. Keep punding away and run all those NASTY REPUBLICANS out of Washington....

Lets put it this way, only time will tell. "IF" he is elected to the highest office in the nation, he has to get through all of G.W.Bush's muck. My bet to anyone, by his first month until his first State of the Union speech he will have snow white hair, just trying to undo many of the Bush's policies.
So far in McCain campaigning, the negative attacks, lies, fear hate and dividing this country. McCain made a comment, "IF WE DON'T KNOW OUR HISTORY WE ARE GOING TO REPEAT IT!" right you are McCain... Remember The Civil War? McCarthyism? THE KKK? shall I go on.

Vote the canidate of your choice, and if it is the way it was for 8 long years, don't cry in your coffee, or tea.

Obama/Biden 08/12

TAINOPOWER YOU'RE POSTING FALSE INFORMATION GO TO THE TRUTH SQUAD TO VALIDATE THE FACTS BUT THEN AGAIN YOU DON'T WANT THE FACTS YOU ENJOY BEING STUPID.

Now is the time.
Vote Obama/Biden

The thought of either McCain or Obama leading this nation for the next four years makes me want to vomit. My guess is that we will NOT be better off in 2012 than we are right now and thing will most likely get worse. Obama is the most narcissistic man to ever run for President of these United States and his messianic complex will lead us into nothing but disaster. John McCain on the other hand is a senile angry old man who will also bring us at least 4 more years of trouble. What a disgusting choice. The Democrats were more motivated by the thought of electing the first black president than they were in choosing what was right for the nation and the Republicans had their usual band of merry lunatics to chose from. I would suggest that for the next four to eight years we put our heads down and try our best to avoid the fallout.

Obama does have a plan and we can believe in it.
Obama/Biden

shut up Tainopower!

What a liar! Making things up

Only if Obama and Biden are elected ! So vote now for change!

PS This TAINOPOWER poster is a whacko. Have they been dipping tnto Cindy's medicine jar? The issue has already been dealt with. I guess that's what happens when you hang out with people who support candidates with a third grade I.Q. level.
Peace and love, my friend. Peace and love. He, he.

... the judge also ruled that OBAMA//BIDEN won the election against their opponents McCain/Palin. Therefore, OBAMA/BIDEN team immediately suspended their campaign. People all over the country are celebrating with joy ....

in contrast ,john mccain is launching a new attack ad ,full of lies.

TAINOPOWER...GET OFF THE WEB SITE, I KNOW WHO YOU ARE! YOU'RE THE EXTREMIST RIGHT WINGER TRYING TO STOP PEOPLE FROM VOTING!!!

VOTE OBAMA-BIDEN 08 & 12

Go early voters, the Republicans got too many tricks up their sleeves.

Registered Republican "voted" Obama/Biden 08

TAINOPOWER

your an idiot!

I don't understand why more people are not on Obama's side. The only explanation is race. His plan will help more people than McCain's plan. You can see the differences real clear. Those that are for the rich will vote for McCain and those that are for the poor will vote for Obama and maybe those that are not rich but white will support McCain and those that are rich but black will support Obama. I'll be so surprise to see this country for once come together as one people. Obama is for bringing people together. Not once have I heard McCain say that he wants to bring all people together no matter what color, creed, or religion. And thats why most people will vote for Obama American is getting tried of this dividing our country stuff.

Looks like Barack is closing the deal.

The McCainanites haven't been able to destroy his character. He's not scary, he's not angry, he's not extreme.

But McCain isn't done yet. They will try to intimidate voters at the polls in every jurisdiction that counts. They will run increasingly dishonest ads and give increasingly shrill stump speeches.

Don't let the liars and influence peddlers of the right fool you again.

Thank you Mr. President Elect Obama!

I look forward to a stronger more healthier America starting Nov. 5th.

I'm FIRED UP and READY TO VOTE!

A voice of reason during an unreasonable time. That's why I, Susan the Teacher from a rural town in Kentucky, plan on voting for Barack Obama.

This add gave me goose bumps. What a great leader he will be. Someone we need to guide us someone that promises a better future for my children.

excellent clip, everybody go vote, word is out that the extreme christian right wingers are out trying to stop people from voting barak obama. these people are followers for sarah palin and republicans paid by mccain campaign to stop people from voting with hate and scare tatics against barack obama...please ignore them!!! they're all over the place even on here stating bad things about obama....don't let them stop you!!!!

peace

Great Job. Mr. Obama

We have to stop the bleeding now!

Republicans, take a drink, hold your breath, do whatever you have to do to vote Obama/Biden!

Here our new President people.....Can't wait until Nov 4 annoucement that Obama landslide victory party.........Time for a new begining in America......muhahahaha.......hahahahahahaha......McCain and Sarah saying their GOODBYE SPEECH

President Obama – we are voting for you all over NC.

Hang in there. The ignorant ones might believe JM, but there are more smart people in this country now than ever before.

Obama/Biden – vote early and avoid longer lines – I did

So glad Obama is back on the campaign trail, as we continue to pray for his grandmother and for Obama and Biden as they continue their bid for the White House........I think this election is going to go down in history as the greatest landside in any election........not to mention our First Black President........and it will also go down in History as McCain's dirtiest, most hateful, racial, negative campaign ever and that is a legacy the Republicans will have to live with for a long long time.....

TOOT ROCKS!

YES WE CAN!
OBAMA/BIDEN 2008

Great ad!
I am so sick of te hate filled lies from the republicans....the same republicans that profess to be christians. Well, true christians do not lie, and do not accuse innocent people of being terrorist, and socialist, and communist, or of treason.
John McCain has lost all his honor, and sara palin is nothing more than a wannabe celebrity that has gleefully left her christian beliefs in Alaska.

Stay positive, stay focused, stay on message.

That should be reminded to all of the surrogates for both camp.

By the way, voted for Sen, Obama today in early voting. Lots of folks were out doing the same thing this morn.

excellent ad. i don't think i've ever seen mccain give such detailed plans.

obama not being a student of history would like to repeat 1930 all over again.
that would be raising taxes and cutting back on trade. this will lead to a deeper recession with some sources calling for 11% unemployment by june 2009.

despite media support obama knows nothing about economics and never made any improvements in his state senate district in ILLIONOIS. it has the worst schhols and the most murders in the entire state.

As always...raising above the fray...I love it. It makes McLame look so desperate for his negative ad.

Very positive ad. Like it ....
This should close the deal ...

Wow, imagine that. Barack Obama puts up an add with substance. McCain still can't get out of the mud-pit, but Obama is talking issues and inspiring hope in the American people.

Which influences me more, fear or hope? Definitely hope. I'll be voting for the guys who have a clear vision of a future for America... not the guys who see us devolving into a military state.

good ad. I like when Obama speaks directly to the people. In this time and day, we should ask are we better off then 4 days ago. the economy is getting worse daily and we need solutions which Obama provides.

Way to NOT fall victim to the McCain negativity Mr. Obama.

I live in Columbus, Ohio, I am nervous. The McCain signs far out number the Obama signs despite what the polls show here in Franklin County.

Obama the Future See-er says you will be better off, so you will be better off. And he'll define the measure.

Great Ad. I hope it airs in Indiana. Indiana RNC are sending out hatemail and robocalls.

Our country will be much better off if Senator Obama is elected president.
The McCain campaign is disgraceful – McCain and Palin and their hate filled, race baiting, terrorist calling, treason accusing, socialist accusations against Senator Obama is completely disgraceful and sinful. And you can bet they will run the white house and the country the same way.
We've had enough of the rogue republicans...and one other thing...this joe the plumber guy is another lying, tax cheating, rip-off artist thats gaining fame because he dosen't pay his taxes and isn't a real plumber. Good Grief...our country has had enough of the lies and mistrust, and McCain and Palin will continue their christian based charade as our country continues to crumble around our ears.

The answer to that depends on who ends up in the White House. Someone who has different economic and diplomatic policies, or someone who has increasingly voted in line with Bush.

John McCain has increasingly voted in line with Bush for the past four years till he got to the point this year where he voted in line with him 100%.

And look where the Bush policies has gotten us.

Real change doesn't start with the same old people with the same old ideas. It won't start with McCain.

Grandma for O
First time to vote for a Democrat for the White House in almost 30 years.

McCain's urgent priorites for our country are to lie about Barack Obama's tax plan and his character. We do not need a president that divides us.

This is a good ad, I still think it's going to be close, this race is not over no matter what the polls say.

If obama is pres, then we will be better off 4 years from now.

Great ad Barack.

McCain and Palin squads are beginning to turn on each other and I have my popcorn watching the show.

Keep up the good work and lets win this thing.

Judge Orders Obama Campaign END
"TYPE=PICT;ALT="Election 2008 piece by Grant Swank

Judge orders Dem National Committee to halt, to remove B. Hussein Obama from “all election ballots” per Daniel Downs of Greene County Dailies.
“After reviewing evidence presented by Attorney Philip Berg, US District Court Judge Honorable R. Barry Surrick has ruled that Barack Hussein Obama was not a ‘natural born’ or ‘naturalized’ citizen and is ineligible to run for and/or serve as President of the United States.
“Judge Surrick then ordered the Democratic National Committee to cease all campaign activity on behalf of their candidate for President. He further ordered Obama be removed from all election ballots.”
