There is no doubt Obama will win but the margin of victory is of utmost importance for America's future. Every democratic country needs at least 2 legitimate political parties that represent ideas from left, middle and moderate. If the more intelligent and moderate conservatives don't take the initiative to wrestle the Republican Party away from the extremists and kooks then the GOP is doomed and cease to exist as a rational choice in the near future. When you see all the prominent Republicans crossing over to support Obama it is a clear indication there is something rotten in Denmark as the saying goes. Obama by a landslide 390 electoral votes in 08. America desperately needs an Obama landslide in the election.

We must keep up and spread the support. Everyone must vote and we have to stay on top of the republicans once again trying to steal this election with their tricks on trying to suppress votes. We still have barriers to overcome so don't let your guard down.

If his campaign is any indication America would be in total chaos. We could have Pres.

We have seen in almost all Republican candidates campaigns nothing but negativity, divisiveness, lying, and a back biting tone with total disrespect for the intelligence of American people. What are they running on? I have yet to figure this out. What has happened to them? My choice is clear. I have seen Obama present himself with dignity, honesty, and respect. He has presented a clear view of where he would like to take this country…building from the ground up and bring respect and self-esteem back to the American people. Vote, vote for Change on Tuesday, Nov. 4th. Yes, we can be a country of honor once more!!! Has anyone wondered how McCain would run this country?

They can't do it if there is a 7 to 8 point difference but at 2 or 3 points, within the margin of error, or with the 'undecideds' being more than the difference between the two candidates, they can do it. That's why they keep saying their internal polls say it's closer. They can just say "See..polls are wrong." Don't let them steal another election from us.
