CNN

I lived in Az from the age of 9 to about 29 which included the Reagan years. The state as a whole had terrible schools and a terrible economy. It was also overwhelmingly Republican. It was growing up in Az that I decided to be a Democrat. The political base there is one of the main reasons I moved to MN. For McCain to even be in danger of losing AZ is quite remarkable. Good for you, AZ!

AZ citizens are comprised of the rich and white and then everybody else.

For those of you that insist on putting your head in the sand about Obama, and only see the BEST of him, answer me this - How do you explain his "socialist" (that's right, I said the S word) tendencies to "deny the press" that don't agree with him. For those of you that haven't heard (because CNN hasn't reported it yet), just today they announced that he has decided to "remove three reporters from his plane that endorsed McCain". His reason – not enough room.. EXCEPT - in the past, presidential campaigns that had too many people and not enough room on the plane – GOT A SECOND PLAN. No money for that – we all know that's not true.. No time for that – in the past presidential candidates with a lot more events (5-7 per day) were able to manage two planes without issue.. Well – at least he was fair about who he kicked off - wait, no – he only removed those papers supporting Mccain. Let me guess – you're all going to argue – Well good for them!! Those reporters don't deserve access anyway - except, what's next – he starts dictating what stories can be broadcast?? Freedom (and access) of the press is a fundamental RIGHT, RESPONSIBILITY, and OBLIGATION.. even Obama supporters should speak out against this one.. If he IS elected, he needs to know that we as Americans will not tolerate surpression of the press. (CNN - I know you support Obama, it is obvious in your stories, but please post this – and report on it - its important for us to know this and its important for you too – and feel free to remove any and all references to your station.)

Obama supporters are truly the lowest of the low. You can never argue based on any concrete facts or logical arguments. You can only resort to name calling and disgustingly low-rode attacks. John McCain IS an American hero and as such he deserved your respect, even if you do not want him as your President. Obama has never stood for change in his entire political career. He has always towed the line of his party. You people are so desperate that you look only at his "beautiful rhetoric" instead of his frighteningly short and unaccomplished record.

Too late McCain, I already voted for Barack Obama. It wouldn't have mattered anyway, you repugnants can keep your divisive ideas. By the way, liberal means open-minded, is that such a bad thing?

Poor guy, he's too old to be doing that. My grand parents can't even visit seven relatives who live on the same block in a day. Are they crazy?

CNN, I am really disappointed. I really thought that you were making a real effort to remain unbiased, but the more I see, the more I am convinced that you are so far up John McCain's you-know-what it isn't even funny. From Lou Dobbs to the blantant refusal to air Obama's 30 minute ad, you are being so obvious it's sad. How does it feel to be the new Fox News?

McCain–it's over. Go back in your little hole along with Sarah Failin', Joe-the-unlicensed plumber (Thank you AC360), and all your anti-change cronies. You lost.

Change we need!!!

Obama 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!

McCain and palin cant get along now !! What will they bring to the white house? Anger, a divided nation. And will they listen to the people or only to themselves? I am a small business owner and i see great things in store for us if obama wins. I would gladly pay more taxes if it means to do my part in the cure of our nation. I cant afford to pay employees now and must work 7 days a week on my own, 10 and 12 hours a day. Believe me i wish i made 200,000 a year let alone 250,000. So to all these small business owners who are not willing to help our nation, all i can say is shame on you. What happened to 9/11 when we were a nation that pulled together and stood together and overcame. I love my nation and always will................

God bless obama

Old man slow down.....save your energy for all the crying you will be doing on Nov. 4th when Obama whips your selfrighteous butt!

Take it easy McCain. A 72 year old man with health problems cannot compete physically with a physically fit 47 years old man.

When Larry King asked McCain if he believes that Obama is a socialist, McCain answered "No". When a lady said she's afraid of Obama, McCain said "No, he's a decent family man. No need to be afraid from him".

So, if McCain is honest, then who's spreading this "socialist" and dirty stuff? If McCain is dishonest, then ...

7 HOUSES IN 7 STATES

NO THANKS!

WE = ARE = ONE = NATION

I just wish Obama had the time to make a couple of appearances in Arizona...

Independent but Leaning:

Oh shut up. You don't have a clue what socialism is. And you certainly don't have a clue that our country already functions with various levels of socialist principles. And where did they start. Ask McCain's hero Teddy Roosevelt. Ask FDR. And oh yes, ask Ronald Reagan, the engineer behind the Child Tax Credit which is a pure example of redistributing the country's wealth. Go away Independent, perhaps all the way to Cuba.

Oh my, can his age and health allow him the stamina to be able to do that? What is going to do, give 20 minute rallies in each state? I'd be interested to see what cities and states he goes to. They better release them soon, otherwise no one may show up. Most voters who've yet to vote will already be taking some time off from work to go vote on Tuesday, so who in the heck is he expecting to take time off on Monday to come see him speak?

Sorry McCain, but these Independents have already voted for Obama! Perhaps if you had been the old McCain of 2000 and had not picked Palin as your VP you could have gotten our votes, but we are firmly behind Obama/Biden now.

Isnt McCain's plan to buy out failed mortages Socialism? It's taking my tax dollars and giving it to Joe the unlicensed plumber that lives down the street. Double standard to the nth degree.

I look at the electoral polls and see the vast red areas. They don't seem to be very close to any higher education. Is this is coincidence?

Push hard to the end it's all any candidate who's behind can do
hmm i don't think this comment is partisan enough to get posted
which is a disturbing trend for CNN you guys have never posted my
comments guess there not divisive enough for your Site.

And that's too bad because i thought you guy's have been the least partisan news network this election after all McCain supporters think
your biased and Obama supporters think your biased that tells me your doing your job right "Communist News Network my butt." more like Centrist News Network. you see i am an Obama supporter but i hate partisan attacks so i hope some of you fellow Obama supporters get your act together and don't add to divisiveness.

After the JOE THE PLUMBER screw up yesteday. I am more convinced than ever McCain would make a HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE PRESIDENT. ONYL A FOOL WOULD VOTE FOR HIM

He's TOO OLD AND IS LOSING HIS MARBLES.

GOD FORBID PALIN EVER GETTING TO THE WHITE HOUSE...She a bonehead.

He is going to outspend Obama? Is he going clothes shopping with Palin?

Go get em Gramps!

Obama/Biden 08 & 12

McCain has run a very Negative campaign thus far.

I am going to vomit if I hear the following phrases one more time: Terriorist, Pro-American small towns, Socialist, Communist, Joe the Plumber, Palin.

McCain you have divided this nation. You have created fear in order to try to win an election. You have NOT been honorable. I may never support a Republican ever again. I am an Independant and I have voted for a Republican before.

I voted for you Mr. McCain.

He leaves with shame, too bad he did serve with honor back in nam.

One day of hard campaining then RETIREMENT !!!

Good luck- Early voted last week for Obama in Dallas, TX.

Ah the smell of desperation smells so good on McCain and Palin

Question Obamaholics. If 'The Annointed One' was really all that and a bag of chips, as you so gullably proclaim in posts all over here, why does he only have a single digit lead in polls that use such a miniscule fraction for the sample that if it was any other research it would be discounted for being to small? If he was the savior to all America's ills, will make the world love us, fix the economy and make our bedsheets smell April fresh, then you'd think he'd have vast double-digit leads.

Oh well, you've been dilusional so far in thinking he'll fix everything, might as well keep up the charade until the 5th, when you then realize that there were Americans smarter than you, who sent the Annointed Failure back to his mansion he got with help from his slumlord pal, to listen to his Rev. Wright cds, read his Bill Ayers books, email Scarlett Johansen, and avoid phone calls from his relatives that are living in squalor.

NOBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

did any body seen joe the plumer,where is he ,hello JOE are you there?what asenator.

I am amazed that McCain/Palin campaign insist on carrying a negative campaign to the end. All he is doing is promoting Obama by regurgitating all the great policies of Obama. McCain is toast.

If McCain wins it would be ashamed and would be a destruction of American democracy, considering all the polls. It is ironic that we insist on a democratic system in Iraq and yet we (u.s) can not carry out a perfect election...look at all the early voting problems we are having.

money will not help McCain he is lost in his direction and shows poor judgement

He's too old to do this. People were worry he may not make it to the end of his term. I'm worry he may not make it tor the end of this election. He has no business running around like this. He's too old. He needs to be napping.

To "Independent but Leaning"

No you're not.

Obama supporters should take a quick investigative look into all the "community organizing" your candidate has done in Chicago...economic and crime problems are completely out of control there. But that's Bush's fault, I'm sure will be the response. Obama's only real experience has been campaigning for this election...but now I'm guessing I'll be labeled a racist. To bring up the facts about your "Messiah" is simply something that you don't want to hear. Now I am truly seeing the "dumbing-down" of America in action. Absolutely amazing!

From Independent but leaning - McCain will win because Americans do not want socialism. We have seen Cuba and we don't want that kind of equality: equally poor, equally hungry, equally politically silenced.
------------------------------–

Now let's get a grip with these comparison. IPersonnally , think there is no market better than the US free capitalism. But if you are going to make comparison, then be thorough. Cuba and China have the same systems. We are borrowing money from China.

Stop with just repeating what your hear - Please look at the rationale behind the canidates and then make a decisions.

McCain has a house in each one of these states. But that is not going to save him, not at all for this time the people are paying attention.

Obama/Biden 08/12.

It's looking better and better for McCain. People are starting to use common sense and are coming around for McCain. While McCain is far from perfect, he's far better than Obama and an Obama presidency.

PUMA

CNN, why do you post comments that are nothing but hate? You have some guy on here taking a shot at John McCain saying that he is a disgrace to his uniform. I have tried to post very many comments that have no name calling in them and that are, I think, substantive. (Of course, I am a bit biased on that claim).

The apparent Obama supporters on your 'Ticker' rarely post anything of substance. Simply McShame, McSane, McSame, Falin, Caribou Barbie, the shameless list goes on.

Your policy states "You may not post any unlawful, threatening, libelous, defamatory, obscene, pornographic or other material that would violate the law. Please note that CNN makes reasonable efforts to review all comments prior to posting and CNN may edit comments for clarity or to keep out questionable or off-topic material. All comments should be relevant to the post and remain respectful of other authors and commenters." Please adhere to it.

I haven't seen any unlawful, threatening or pornographic comments, but the libelous, defamatory and obscene abound.

"McCain and the Republican party expect to outspend his rival, Democrat Barack Obama, by $10 million in the closing days of the campaign, Davis said."

That's like saying you won the football game because you kicked a field goal in the last 4 seconds. Guess it does not matter if the score at the end is 52-3 in favor of the other team eh McCain?

November 5th will be a telling day for America!

I Hope to see from the dawns early light.....

A True American Hero as our Commander-in-Chief!

If the False Prophet steals the election he will soon find out that Americans Love their Country and will not tolerate a Cheater!

How can you outspend someone and you claim to not have as much money? Whose campaign donations need to be investigated now?

Advice to Republicans: Better focus on House races, but only clean candidates, if any.

McCain to hit seven states? I hope they hit back....

I also hope they send Boob Palin packing for the tundra!

Hope you can get elected or the American will be no longer safe.

McCain is the biggest lier in politics and his wealth help help
cover it up. Spread the wealth,his wife and he have enough money
themselves to spread some. We american can afford one home,no longer 7 homes.

Where did McCain get 10 million dollars from? Did Cindy invest in his campaign. No drugs for Cindy she just sole them to get money for McCain to go state to state until ELECTION.

Anyone paying attention to the various news reports about dismal youth turnout so far in the early voting? The youth are a big Obama block. If they fail to turn out, as it usually happens, Obama will lose.
The youth are very active in blogging, campaigning, recording youtube videos, but will not stand in line for several hours to vote.
Young people are lazy – is is just a fact- and when they realize voting means hard work – standing in the rain, skipping lunch- they'll skip out. It happens every time.
If you're wondering, I'm a concerned Obama supporter.

Charging hard till the end, way to go John McCain! Proud to give you my vote on Tuesday.

McCain will have to check with Joe, the plumber to see what he is suppose to do.

Hey, Joe got any suggestions.
No, McCain you are going down the toilet.
Hey, Joe know any good plumbers?

Good luck Mccainbush. time for you to endorse Obama...maybe u get a possition in his add.

Mccain will campaign in Arizona too....lol He can't loss Arizona..

YES HE CAN! & YES HE WILL!

mccain will be continuing to spread his message of hate and division, as well as fear-mongering. He has ruined his image, every time he opens his mouth I hear hate, criticism, fear and desperation.

He lost my vote when he started race-baiting, and when he and palin said there are real parts of America and fake parts. We all love our country, the repubs are trying to intimidate people by saying if we don't vote for them we are not "real Americans".

He should save the $10 million. The Republicans will need it for the 2010 elections............between Geo Bush II and John McCain ...they have managed to WRECK the Party that Ronald Reagan constructed, starting in 1966 !!!! The Gipper must be in disbelief that two Individuals could have done this much damage in only 8 years !!! I am sure he is proud of all the Divisive , Negative Campaign Smut that we have stooped too !!!! I hope we LOSE BIG...............we have earned it !!!!

Go away, McShame!

OBAMA 08

if John McCain had transporter technology to beam him to all the states in the same day, it still wouldn't make a difference. Barack Obama will be our new President. You can either move out of the way of history, or be run over by it.

to;
Noah October 31st, 2008 11:30 am ET
McCAin also got the backing of 4 former secretaries of state. Obama has one, Colin Powell. Wow.
----------------–
Wrong again, dumb-dumb.
Albright
Christopher
Powell.
also, former Republican governors, Weld, Carlson and Weiker.
also,
former presidents Clinton and Carter,
also, former VP's Mondale and Gore.
Want me to go on?
The list of standing and former political figures, military figures and noted economists, educational and scientific minds, etc. are so heavily weighted in Obama's favor you might want to check out the list yourself.

Its not fair that Obama has all that money to spend. Shouln't he be mandated to give some to McCain...wouldn't that be fair. If not why?.
Come on Barrack...spread the wealth.

Obama will win this election with between 291 and 353 electoral votes. You can take that to a safe bank.

One more thing....funny the longer the time goes by the madder i get! there are people working Mike Ditka – but they still can't make it – not everyone can be a football coach or movie star – or whatever – most of us are doing the work that needs to get done to keep the economy going to help you all out on wall street – but then we lose our jobs and go from making a decent wage to something equal to a greeter at the local "sprawl-MART" or flippin burgers – but heck – by then we are competing with young kids – who need to work also – - what the hell....I guess its all our fault – and if we stay uneducated we will fall for the "Hate & Fear" pushed on us because we don't know any better! VOTE FOR OBAMA/BIDEN – they at least understand what it might be like for us.

I guess that includes Arizona... and Alaska "also"!

I guess he seven cities in seven days is his fireworks grand finale. I think it might be to late. I do hope Alaska and Arizona go blue so we can rid the political arena of both McCain & Palin. She needs to be impeached of her position...she has ripped off the Alaskian taxpapyers.

In response to: Independent but Leaning

"McCain will win because Americans do not want socialism. We have seen Cuba and we don't want that kind of equality: equally poor, equally hungry, equally politically silenced."

Actually.. IF he does win it will be because of this: "You're coordinated effort to use FOX NEWS, the Bush Administration, your campaign, Sarah Palin, and The Justice Department to commit voter fraud, voter intimidation, & voter suppression is an act of terrorism"

I don't care how long this man was captured or that he is a "decorated" war here because he was a POW – that doesn't make him qualified to run the country – He is a disgrace to his uniform and he has only proven that over & over by how he has conducted his "campaign" (if you can call it that) – these are the actions of a desperate man in his final hours.......

I voted Obama and South Carolina early voters is a record turnout here. We are pulling and definely trying hard to turn RED to BLUE. Now we are voting with long lines ,babies in stroller and elderly with walkers. This is our year as a Democrat to shine. So let's shine baby shine. Obama Obama.

Headlines: Obama wins Arizona 2008 with a landslide victory...and blows the dust to Mcsame and failin

America world watching you! your vote for your president is a test of your intelligence for us.

From Canada

That may as well be some good exercise for McCain, but the truth is he is heading for a real up setting monument on November 04, 2008.One other fact is I can't understand why McCain is even feeling that he has any chance. He has his Republican base but they are not enough to give him the election. I was looking at CNN today and it was reported that in other countries the approval rating for the Presidency in America, in one country was 68% Obama and 32% McCain that reflects on our education system here in America.

Considering Sarah Palin's aspiration for a 2012 run; I wish her well in the Iditarod.

Will he bring Joe the Plumber with him ?
I have a septic tank that needs to be replaced.

OMG-He may be dead after that . I can see Sarah now trying to drag that old body to the White House

Where is the Pit Bull going to be during this time? Seven states in one day? Does he have the physical and mental fortitude to facilitate such a grueling pace? Its grueling to do rallies in seven states, let alone the miles and miles of travelling in the bus. Just because its a tour bus, doesn't mean its completely comfortable

Independent But Leaning: Thej socialism argument is getting really tired. All you have to do is to go to Obama's website and enter your income information, and compare your taxes under McCain's and Obama's presidency.

ITS NOT socialism. its common sense. If you make more money then you SHOULD have to pay more in taxes. Plus, a good accountant can get you through it by writing off many meetings, lunches, community visits, etc, as BUSINESS expenses.

One less state than Paris Hilton can hit in the same time. Go ahead McCain, spend Cindy's retirement savings with one last firework display. Obama has sealed the deal!

CNN Fox Mega Kelly ,BIll Hannity are helping McCain with free
media coverage and taalking ugly about Obama if they hate him,
especially Mega Kelly and Sean Hannity.These are repubblican
that sit with the media and help McCain and to me Hannity and
Kelly look to be on racism side.

We are on the precipice of making beneficial history by not rewarding our failed history.
We are aiming for a mandate, understanding that the responsibility to
govern should be no mystery.
I hope for the triumph of hope and courage over desperate and dastardly campaign tactics.
Do you not see the correlation between the campaign and the coveted office - this is not magic.
American is the land, bustling culture and the dollar.
But often we overheat, not confident of the hour.
Yet the hour is at hand.
The choice is in your hand.

Choose wisely, my friends.

Two very important PESIDENTIAL DECISIONS at a very crucial time in America and the rest of the world. What decisions did McCain come up with...... Very SACRY ones, he prefers to call them Mervericky? or is it Maverisky???

Well, the American people will not gamble with their future, No sir, not this time and not in this election circle. so long McCain and Joe-the-whatever!!!

In seven states to try to scare people again....Lies and attack against Obama at the program...Mc Cain very shameful and running mate Palin,the most stupid running mate even seen in history

Alot to late….The message will be attack,attack,attack and more attacks. How about a real message for the people or is that not how to win?

ooh take it easy old man...sounds like a strenous schedule. IF anything happens to you, PAlin will be pres. so please take it easy and stay alive cos that proposition is tooooo scarey!!!

He can hit all 50 states and it won't make a difference. He's ran a nasty campaign and people from coast to coats see that. He better hope he can remain a U.S. Senator.

OBAMA/BIDEN 08

Independent but leaning....it is obvious that you are not independent and leaning.

I went to barackobama.com as I;;ve seen so many people say on this site, to try and figure out exactly what he is going to do as president. I found a lot of promises, such as I will end the war in Iraq, I will solve the immigration issue and make sure all immigrants are legally here and can read and write english.
Lots of great things he's going to do.
But not once did I find a solution or details on how he was going to do all those things. Justs words.
I realize this is what he is good at. Telling people what's wrong, that they need to be better, but not one single thing on how to get there other than to say whose fault it is that things are the way they are. And... he didn't even get that right.
So I agree, go to barackobama.com and see what he is all about. Empty promises and no solutions. But it sure sounds good and he has a bunch of sheep following him.
I don't believe there are any independants anymore. At least I'm not.
McCain 2008. A president that's more than fancy words and lots of money to buy your vote. A president that is in it for the good of the country, not his own good.

Just because you are a "War Hero", you are not entitled to be POTUS. You shouldn't have been in Hanoi anyways.

McCain should lose Arizona. He deserves it after picking a vice presidential candidate, who is unfit for this position. How can he expect that any reasonable person would vote for him if he made such a bad judgment call by forcing Sarah Palin down our throats? He made himself unfit for becoming president.

Obama=the future

McCain=the past

I see wheer McCain wants to take part of the 700B bailout and use it to keep people in thier homes...well John...nice to say but to be honest with Bush and Paulson still in charge I doube that any of that money will be left....again clueless...pandering.

SEVEN STATES IN ONE DAY? JUST CALL IT HIS FAREWELL TOUR.

Voting for you Mccain would be a vote to encourage ignorance and fear and isolation and poverty and depression. All of which we experienced the last 8 years and we want change. We want Hope, Education, Healthcare, Jobs, strenght in world and most of all our diginity back.
Thanks Mccain but no thanks! Now go far far far away and take Ms Palin the whack job with you.

The republican party should really be proud with Joe 6 pack, Joe the plumber, Joe the wall street crook, and now JOE McCARTHY has been raised from the dead-you know, that senator who called people communists and socialists and any lists that will get him elected–no not Joe McCarthy, mccain–the reason why congressman lewis called Joe mcshame McCarthy out of the hate campaign. mcshame has taken this country back to the McCarthy era and that is the scariest part of what is going on.

Senator McCain you are no hero, you are in fact a terrorist.

Your campaign advisor & "Transition Chief" William Timmons was a Saddam Hussein lobbyist for 5 years.
You pal around with Gordon Liddy, domestic terrorist.
You are a member of "The Project for a New American Century" – a radical extremist terrorist organization.
Your VP candidate's husband Todd Palin is a domestic terrorist in the Alaskan Independence Party.
You accuse Obama of knowing Rashid Khalidi, yet you yourself have given Rashid Khalidi & the PLO $500,000.00!!! So by your logic, if Obama is a terrorist sympathizer like you claim, then you Senator McCain are a state sponsor of terrorism. You are, by your own twisted logic, a terrorist by your own admittance.
You have met with Chilean Dictator Pinochet, a terrorist.
You're coordinated effort to use FOX NEWS, the Bush Administration, your campaign, Sarah Palin, and The Justice Department to commit voter fraud, voter intimidation, & voter suppression is an act of terrorism.

John McCain you are a disgrace to your uniform.

Ya know, it is becoming crystal clear what is wrong with the GOP party. Look at the people they are parading on the campaign stages to try to get whatever votes they can scrounge out of the bottom of the barrel. I say that only because I cannot imagine that anyone would give their vote based on the irrelevant campaign-prop-celebrities that McCain/Palin have been dragging around with them unless they had the IQ of a zit. Whats more sad is that McCain is having to resort to parading these folks around because he has nothing substantial to offer. What a clusterf&%k of a campaign.

Have at it McLoser. Take McMoosie along too. And Joe the Plumber. That will ensure a landslide for "That One".

OBAMA/BIDEN '08

Wow – and a stint on Saturday Night Live too?? Perhaps he has a double so he can keep up with the pace.

Looks like many Americans are finally waking up to exactly what a clown Obama really is. McCain will win on Tuesday because real Americans will not pull the lever for Barack Hussein Mohammed Obama.

For those of you who are interested, Georgia has just updated its turnout statistics. I did the math and early voting turnout is already 53.3% of the 2004 Total Vote (early and election day). More significantly, African-American turnout is holding at 35%. If African-American turnout remains roughly where it is, Obama WILL carry the State of Georgia.

It it simple.. America is looking for change and McCain is NOt it. Finally this country can begin its recovery from the Bush years. Actually Bush should do the right thing and endorse Obama after Mccain threw him under the bus.

I agree with Suzanne, he wont be able to do it............watch him fall apart and the republicans will have their nominee Jane doe : palin, with VP : joe the plumber

oh by the way....... i also agree with thomas, & John mccain is a liar , and
Just Said Thanks, but No Thanks to Another 4 Years of g.o.p. corruption, arrogance and incompetence October 31st, 2008 12:17 pm ET

Obama Supporters: Optimistic and Happy
McCain Supporters: Pessimistic and Angry

Where do you see the future of America?

OB08

Independent but Leaning,

You are not so Independent leaning but hardcore conservative repthuglican. you too lie like McPalin

RUN GRANDPA RUN. BUT TOO LATE.

Well $10mm minus two hundred. I just donated to BO and convinced a friend to do the same.

I'd spend my last dime to prevent the repubs from running this country further into the ground.

Thanks for the head's up, though, Mr. Davis.

it apperas senator McCain has started to look more like robot than human

Already voted for Obama and just donated to the campaign.

why waste the money and fuel, Sen. McCain?...just go home...i mean you keep making huge blunder after blunder...what's going on with you?..you actually let Mike Ditka campaign for you?...well, i hope you enjoyed what he said...hahaha...and there was nothing Gov. Palin could have done caus she knows no better, anyway...the way you've run your campaign has let this nation down, really...i mean you complained 'bout celebrities campaigning for Sen. Obama a while ago...and now you've enlisted Gov. Scwarzeneger and Mike Ditka to do the same for you?...is that how bad things are in the race?...well, you may wonna head back home caus you might lose in your own state of Arizona...i'm very glad that Americans have finally stood up for what really matters, not the unnecessary fear you and your running mate are trying to push on us...God Bless the US Armed Forces and the United States of America.

Obama/Biden 08

Kina.

This is coming to an end finally – Thank God for small miracles....

Independent but Leaning... you are anything but independent...

What will you do for us Senator McCain? Were still waiting to hear your plan. Putting down BARACK OBAMA IS NOT A PLAN.

2008-12 PRESIDENT OBAMA – A ONCE IN A LIFETIME CANDIDATE. PLEASE DON'T LET THIS OPPORTUNITY SLIP AWAY.

Well said, John McCain is a LIAR.
We need a unifier. McCain can't even unify his campaign with Palin going Rambo. So how can he unify this nation.

My wife a longtime democrat voted early last week and cast her vote for MCain...she unlike many in this room, can see Obama for what he truly is. I myself wish to savor the moment and will vote on Tuesday.

Interesting...anytime Barack Obama is outspending them something is wrong – when John McCain is doing the outspending it's something to announce to the world.

They brag about Sarah Palin drawing in the crowds, but when Barack does he's a celebrity.

Barack's campaign has done circles around McCain's negative campaign. I'm sure all 10 million will be spent on attack ads instead of positive ones touting McCain's experience; and this is why they are losing ladies and gentlemen.

Stay focused and positive Barack. Don't stoop to their low standards.

flail ...flail...to avail...

Mccain to tell lies in 7 states in the remaining days of the campaign.

To do what; spread the hate anf fear around. This man is out of idea.

His whole campaign is now nothing but anti-Obama slogans and ridicule.

And yet, Republicans stand behind him, eggin on this absurdity. What does that say for the 43% of Americans supporting.........

"Senator McCain you are no hero, you are in fact a terrorist."

You're not sober, are you? This is the "unity" that Obama inspires? Let's get real people, if Obama wins this country will be more divided than any time the last 30 years.

seven states in three days? this will be for the history books when Obama is president.

Not news

McCain is a decent man but not an astute thinker and politician. This is going to his unfolding in this election. His personal temperament and judgement do not suite for the highest office. He is impulsive and erratic rather than well thought through. He can be more dangerous than George Bush.

I also don't subscribe to continuation of Bushonomics.

McCain will win because Americans do not want socialism.

–

Obama will win because Americans know what "socialism" means, and the progressive income tax rates of the 80s and 90s is not "socialism."

Alaska is already socialistic. Ask and see how they like it. Alaska? Palin is from there. Alaskans spread the wealth through government. Is something fishy here?

I HOPE HE'LL ALSO GO TO cHICAGO

We are working hard in Arizona to make sure Barack Obama wins in McCain's home state. No more of the same coz I need a Job

Hate, Fear, Dread, Distort, Lie, Smear. X 7 = The far right agenda piled higher and deeper.

Having Joe the Plumber campaign with John McCain makes McCain look more stupid than he really is.

John McCain is almost out of energy these days telling lies,i guess he'll make people show up for one more lie and then leave for the other states.What a waste of Ten Million dollars. He should save that for his retirement.

trick or treat...

mccain: senile, two faced, sucker
palin: backstabbing, lying, opportunistic, egomaniacal witch...boo!

gobble, gobble, happy thanksgiving...ho, ho, ho merry christmas!

Well, guess "one" of those stops should be his own state of Arizona, and defend it now, as people there waking up too..saw a comment posted on MSNBC, from a reporter that said would take a divine intereference" now for McCain to win..hmmm, seems to this christian has already been divine interference, in OBAMAS favor...GOD doesnt like LIARS either, and stated in Bible, Liars are from Satan, their Father !!!
Sooooooooo, come on tuesday, or maybe thursday, after all recounts etc done, so OBAMA can take over !!!!!!
Marie in Texas..
FOR OBAMA

It won't help you McCain.

The biggest landslide in history for Obama.

And Arizona and Alaska will be blue hahaha., sniff on that McCain.

Obama / Biden 08

In each year that he was President ….

Democrat Jimmy Carter increased the national debt by $80B

Republican Ronald Reagan increased the national debt by $200B

Republican George H. W. Bush (41) increased the national debt by $400B

Democrat Bill Clinton increased the national debt by $185B

Republican George W Bush (43) increased the national debt by $640B

So they next time the Republicans use the “Tax & Spend Liberal” gimmick against Democrats, remember these HARD facts.

Republicans are responsible for the clear majority … over 80% ... of the balance on our national credit card ….. So who are the Big Spenders???

So long, John, it's been good to know ye ...

Does it matter how many states McCain and Palin visit. They'll repeat the same tired, meaningless statements: joe six-pack plumber, Ayers, Wright, Khalifi, hand-outs, tax and spend (you can bet they won't mention "borrow and spend," mavericks, reform, reform, reform (reform what? ooooh, just reform).

Nuclear waste, blah, blah, blah (did ya love that one?)

But Sarah, my favorite and one I'll share especially with you:
THANKS BUT NO THANKS!

I'm supporting the guy with the education who talks about the issues and ignores your slime machine.

SORRY, MR. MAGOO.

Run poor Mac Run. But you cannot hide. Even in your own state !

Lord... PLEASE

I know there is no gaurantee that Obama and the dems will pull us out of this mess. But I CAN see with my own eyes how dismal the current version of the republicans have carried out their job of guiding our country to greatness. I don't agree with young children cursing, but to quote my cousin (right before I told him to watch his mouth) "They suck"

This from the campaign which has been whining poverty since the primaries! Another reason Sen. Obama chose to receive funding from his supporters. Can you believe anything the Repubs say??

BIG DEAL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

Thanks Davis for giving me more incentive to donate....again

I will be the president of all Americans.

McCain will visit start his day in Fantasy Land,where he has been for quite awhile, then he will travel to Denial, Desparation, Futility, Insanity, Depression and finish his day in the land of Reality, a loser for running a campaign of smoke and mirrors, no content and no future.

Victory Obama 2008

McCain needs to be in all 50 for the last few days.
Between failed policies, Bush, and Palin he can't have enough fingers in the holes to keep the ship from sinking.

McCain hasn't gotten it. Americans want a positive message and a positive leader with hope and ideas, not more of the McSame.

Only 7 states? Not hitting his wife any more? Bet she's glad of that, little trollop that she is (he said it, not me). Also calls her the C*** word. Wonder what he calls SARA?

Voted early for Obama/Biden – the ones with policies and belief in CONSTITUTION.

All McWarmonger knows is trash talk.

Final message from the candidates: BE AFRAID when you vote!

McCain: be afraid of terrorists coming to get you if I don't win
Obama: be afraid of racial riots and being called racist if I don't win

Same message – be afraid, shut-up, and don't question us!

Obama all the way...........................................

back home to the democratic controlled armpit of the Great Lakes!!!

McCain/Palin '08

How's he going to find time for his naps?!?!?!

McCain is too old to be president!

I have great respect for the man, but i do think his age is a valid issue.
Especially because his running mate Palin terrifies me! If she becomes president the USA would fall apart! And Americas already poor global reputation will be shattered!!

Imagine Sarah Palin dealing with the Iraq war….. the economic crisis she knows nothing about….. What if USA is attacked again while she is in charge. That is Scary!

Right after that. the old maverick can hit the glue factory. "my friends".

You can run but you can't hide. Run around and tell your lies but it is too late for you My Friend. The jig is up and the people are tired of your kind of dirty politics and you.

ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha turn out the lights the party is overrrrrrr!

McCain should not ignore Arizona it would be a mistake if he does. The polls have been going up in favor of Obama and avoid loosing Arizona he needs to go back there instead of ignoring the state.

The people are catching the blue wave every where in the country for a change, therefore Arizona will definitely turn blue he ignores them.

The Dems will finally fix the economy and create jobs.

Obama/Biden 08/12.

Some Last push will not change the last 8 years old man sorry but you gotta go

If he has Obama right where he wants him, why would he do this? If he;s in control of this election then there is no need to suddenly change the itinerary.
Another sign of McCains lack of competency. I bet you people in his campaign can't wait for the 4th so people can put his campaign out of it's misery.

Hope Joe the Plumber no show drama won't happen. Can you give us a break? But I have to say, it is quite amazing that you can travel 7 cities in 7 states in one day. Is that a record?

Alas, the end is near!

Good luck Senator McCain as I have already voted for Obama.

A day late and a dollar short.... Sorry McCain, but we prefer the "visionary" plan-ahead strategy, not the "crisis management" put-out-the-fire process.

McCain is too "cocky" even here in his home state. Whether or not he wins the state, it will be close and not a blow out that McCain thinks he will have here. There are an awful lot of "new" residents here from all over the country that probably don't care or didn't care for McCain before. McCain doesn't spend that much time in the state unless he is at his home up in the Sedona/Cottonwood area. I have only lived here 7 years, but I think I have seen and visited more of the state than he has. We take day and weekend trips to some really out of the way places that have historical significance in the growth of Arizona. I wonder if McCain can even find places like Jerome, Greer, Eager and other small towns on the map.

Obama Supporters: Optimistic and Happy
McCain Supporters: Pessimistic and Angry

Where do you see the future of America?

OB08

Old Johhny boy could hit fifty cities in fifty states on Monday,so what,
come Tuesday night he is going to a tired older man that has lost his Presidential bid for the last time.

McCain is going outspend Obama by $10 million? Where's he getting the money for that? He just spent the last few days complaining about how much more money Obama has – yet he's going to outspend him?

Well, no matter how much the two campaigns spend in these final days it is going to be a VERY close outcome. Neither can afford to rest on laurels or poll results.

We are going to take Arizona and Alaska too. Watch out John McCain. At least you will have your two dumb broads by your side. Even Joe the Plumber has abandoned you.

The old McCain would have won this election.

Senator McCain you are no hero, you are in fact a terrorist.

Your campaign advisor & "Transition Chief" William Timmons was a Saddam Hussein lobbyist for 5 years.
You pal around with Gordon Liddy, domestic terrorist.
You are a member of "The Project for a New American Century" – a radical extremist terrorist organization.
Your VP candidate's husband Todd Palin is a domestic terrorist in the Alaskan Independence Party.
You accuse Obama of knowing Rashid Khalidi, yet you yourself have given Rashid Khalidi & the PLO $500,000.00!!! So by your logic, if Obama is a terrorist sympathizer like you claim, then you Senator McCain are a state spronsor of terrorism. You are, by your own twisted logic, a terrorist by your own admittance.
You have met with Chilean Dictator Pinochet, a terrorist.
You're coordinated effort to use FOX NEWS, the Bush Administration, your campaign, Sarah Palin, and The Justice Department to commit voter fraud, voter intimidation, & voter suppression is an act of terrorism.

John McCain you are a disgrace to your uniform.

McCain will win because Americans do not want socialism. We have seen Cuba and we don't want that kind of equality: equally poor, equally hungry, equally politically silenced.

No thank you Senator Government. I'll chose the candidate with experience, honor and character. The candidate who refused to give in to America's enemies when his very life was at stake, let along for political gain.

Poor guy...His condition will not allow him to do that
If he faint, then he loose. He is 72 years

It's not about who can out spend who. It's about the message. Thats what I been paying attention to.

John McCain's on fire! Seven cities in one day. Wow he's a virtual dynamo. Only one third of the U.S. Presidents lived as long as John McCain. Just two presidents older than 65 were elected and one of those died after one month in office. McCain would be the oldest president ever elected. Why are they pushing him so hard? President Palin?

Save your money, you will need it to dress Palin and friends!

EASY NOW MCCAIN! Watch that ticker!

We don't need CELEBRITY SARAH being sworn in just in case you win.

Save OUR Country and Constitution

Vote Obama Nov 4

This is what happens in the final lap. Everyone runs as fast as they can to the finish line. I hope Obama wins. That's all I care about.

times running out old man.

Commentator: Senator Obama, I want to congratulate you on raising a record $150 million in one month. Quite an accomplishment.
Obama: Thank you. We worked very hard and very long to raise that money.
Commentator: You don't mind if I take some of it and give it to Senator McCain? He doesn't have as much.
Obama: You can't do that! I worked hard for that money! That's my money!
Commentator: No so much fun when it's your wealth getting spread around is it???
Obama, empty promises. (Funny how both Obama and Biden, the gaffe machine, are already trying to lower expectations if he gets elected. He will only be able to blame Bush for so long, then who???)

I hope they have an oxygen tank with him, he'll need it. Can't he shout at the clouds from one location, that would save a lot of energy and hot air.

Obama/Biden 08

here in arizona were going to change to blue.we are pumped up to take this state from mccain.

I think the more people see him, the more people hear him and his hateful, nasty, sleazy rhetoric and blame game, they more they realize that he has absolutely nothing to offer this country, no new ideas, no new solutions and the more they realize that he's OLD and that the moronic palin could actually be a real heartbeat away from ruining this country further, the more they will turn away from him!
OBAMA/BIDEN

I hope everyone votes 3rd party........

Is this John McCain's farewell tour?

What a waste of time, money, and gas.

McCain and Palin are the worst in everything they do and say. There is just nothing positive about McCain and Palin – these two are just walking living cells-that's it.

meanwhile obama will be kickin back watchin mccain run around in circle

McCain might as well call it quits...he doesn't deserve to win. No amount of state visits is going to help him now. The American people really know enough about him and his negative campaign to say enough is enough. That goes for Palin also.

Gotta give him credit for being a trooper!!

Not many his age could maintain the pace he's maintained for the past year and still be kicking.

If I hear that tired old speech one more time......

I can't even bear to watch CNN anymore. Every time I hear McCain or Palins voice, I get violently ill.

That is ambitious.
He will cave though. By stop #3 he will suspend his campaign to check whether his latest invention, the "blackberry" has gotten any traction.

No to #894 of 899

BO08

Party is over McCain. You will lose your home state and will retire in disgrace. You will reap what you have sown. You don't act ugly and get nice. 7 states on the last day won't change that.

Obama/Biden 2008/2012.

GOOD LUCK JOHN MCCAIN. WE CANNOT HAVE THE OTHER GUY FOR PRESIDENT. THE USA WILL BE IN FOR ONE BIG PILE OF HURT IF THIS GUY GETS ELECTED. STARTING NOV. 5, 08

Official definition of terrorist from Merriam Webster:
ter•ror•ism Pronunciation: \ter-ər-i-zəm\
Function: noun
Date: 1795
: the systematic use of terror especially as a means of coercion
ter•ror•
1: a state of intense fear
2 a: one that inspires fear : scourge b: a frightening aspect c: a cause of anxiety : worry d: an appalling person or thing ; especially : brat
3: reign of terror
4: violent or destructive acts (as bombing) committed by groups in order to intimidate a population or government into granting their demands

By definition a terrorist is anyone who incites fear and terror through lies, false accusations, and other coercion techniques that are not true. So therefore, by official definition Sarah Palin and many of the McCain/Palin supporters are TERRORISTS who keep creating lies and false accusations for the purpose of scaring people not to vote for Obama. You people must be proud.

obama will build bridges – but they won't be bridges to nowhere

Sorry – I can't identify with someone who has 7 homes (?) married a rich woman to help push his new found "celebrity" when he came back from 'Nam – and left his wife (for all of the above). Ladder climber indeed.

I can identify with someone – who grew up in a mixed neighborhood – had to deal with a broken family – but still came out with a head on his shoulders and a desire to help others! This folks is a "modern American Hero!"

Give "diversity" a chance – its coming anyway – life goes on folks -lets get it done and do our part to help.

Are these going to be potty stops?

We gave Obama 3,000,000 donations * 25$ yesterday, what is the result, I wonder, no way you are outspending us, we are ready.

Listen my friends we have to send this cranky old man and his not so bright Pailn packing.

GET OUT and VOTE NOV. 4th BABY

OBAMA

Boy! for a guy who said he'd run a respectful campaign, McCain is sure telling a LOT of LIES. Saying a LOT of nasty things. Most importantly, he's not telling us how he's any different than his buddy Duhbya. Same failed policies, same divisive, hateful, dishonest politics.
Go ahead McCain, destroy what's left of your honor.
Senator Obama has shown what an issue based, respectful and honorable campaign is. That's why you'll lose everyone but your hard core base.
Vote Obama/Biden!

Todd's arrest on Oct. 23, city police said she told them she had prior mental problems and made up the whole story about a tall black man robbing her and mutilating her face when he saw a John McCain sticker on her car in Bloomfield. Nobody is talking about this how this was about racism and politic.

Alot to late....The message will be attack,attack,attack and more attacks. How about a real message for the people or is that not how to win?

lil too late.........

Can the old guy handle it???????????

"Sen. John McCain on Friday blasted both the Bush administration and the Obama campaign for not doing enough to help homeowners stay in their homes as he began a two-day bus tour across the must-win state of Ohio."

Oh yeah right Mr. McCain, we already know how great Bush administration is, and ok, i agree Obama campaign is not doing enough but can you tell me what are you doing about this issue? Do you think people are that stupid to just hear what you say? com'on old man your time is over.

this is a mistake by mccian

John you better slow down you are going to have a heart attack, is it worth it to you? It isnt going to help you any way.

HOW CAN WE DO THIS.. AIN'T i SUPPOSED TO BE LIMITED BY PUBLIC FINANCE REQUIREMENTS.. OPPS.. DARN I FORGOT i CAN USE ALL MY PUPPET STRINGS AND GET ROUND THAT..

And then it will be buh-bye for McCain, who will fade into the western sunset and Sarah will skedaddle back to Alaska, being chased home by a moose.

Maybe then we can get America the Beautiful back in positive territory.

WHen all the books get written about this Presidential election cycle, all the Obama books should be categorized under fiction.
