Glow Fading?

nope, still no bounce! i'm glad to see newsweek finally owe up to their fabricated poll number from weeks ago. I think it was meant to keep obama's averages up in order to hide the down hill slope that would look on all general election graphs. Silly wabbit...tricks are for kids!

Democrats on Capital Hill Are Miffed at Obama

Here is why: http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0708/11750_Page2.html

Someone is acting arrogant and entitled again??? . .

Fading, I think not. I vote as an Independent and I sincerely wanted to give the benefit of the doubt that since this was a historical voting time that Obama would be judged on a level playing field. Senator McCain confuses many groups, countries and decisions on the spur of the moment. I do not see that the television nor magazines giving a fair shake to Obama. It is time for all people to understand that we are all human beings. I now support Obama, because McCain has had supposedly years of experience and it does not show in the delivery of his speeches or his knowledge of the world and it's activities. Would you rather have someone who is on the brink of senility making decisions for you and yours? I think not.

hey sharenews, how about this one...
(CNN) ??? Planned Parenthood Action Fund is launching a new ad Wednesday in crucial battleground states set to highlight a campaign trail moment John McCain would rather soon forget.

The 30-second spot aimed at women voters shows McCain's apparent unease when a reporter asked him last week whether it was unfair that some insurance plans covered Viagra and not birth control.

"Ever use birth control? Than you'll want to hear this," the ad's narrator states before a flustered McCain is shown saying, "I don't know enough about it to give you an informed answer."

Planned Parenthood spokesman Tait Sye says the ad will run in Colorado, Iowa, Minnesota, New Mexico, Ohio, Wisconsin, and Washington, D.C. during television programs popular with women ??? including Wednesday's season premier of "Project Runway" and "Army Wives" on Lifetime. It will also air during Oprah in some markets.

The group is hoping this issue in particular resonates with the broad swath of the women voters McCain is trying to court ??? according to one study Planned Parenthood cites 98 percent of sexually active women have used at least one form of birth control.

The off-message moment stemmed from a comment by a member of McCain???s own team: national co-chairwoman Carly Fiorina, who had said earlier women often express frustration over the fact many health insurance plans cover Viagra but not birth control medication.

A McCain spokesman later said the Arizona senator supported competition in the healthcare industry, presumably allowing women to nix policies that cover Viagra but not their specific needs.

People should be scared to death of a "snake oil salesman" like Obama becoming president. He's changed his tune soooo many times!!! Where did he come from? What leadership of anything responsible does he have? NONE! The web is crawling with hundreds of things referring to him as the anti-christ - where's Newsweek's article on that??? Start praying people - vote for anyone but the devil.

People should be freaked out knowing the absolute death of a country it will be with a "snake oil salesman" like Obama - or perhaps you should read scripture to understand he presents as a massive amount of people believe he is the anti-christ. Let's pray to God that McCain wins!!

Obama has painted himself as a religious nut and will lose the moderate vote over that topic alone. Brights will have a hard time voting for him.

ISN'T IT CUTE HOW ALL THIS OBAMA DOESN'T HAVE EXPERIENCE GARBAGE JUMPS OFF BUT NOW MCCAIN IS TAKING OBAMA'S CUE ON AFGHANASTAN AND TROOP LEVELS AND NOW BUSH IS SENDING DIPLOMATS TO JUST "LISTEN" TO IRAN AS OBAMA SUGGESTED. FREAKIN HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IRAQ IS DISTRACTING FROM EVERY OTHER THREAT AND OBAMA PLAYING THE RACE CARD ALONG WITH ALL THE OTHER CRAP LIKE RESKO, REV WRIGHT, AYERS, MARXIST, THE COVER OF THE NEW YORKER, THE FIST BUMP, WHAT RELIGION HE IS, THE DEMOCRATS HOUSING DEALS, ALL OF THESE THINGS AND MORE ARE DISTRACTING THE VOTERS FROM THE REAL ISSUES LIKE OBAMA'S VOTING RECORD, OR HIS CHANGES ON THE ISSUES HE LIKES ALL THIS NEGITIVE PUBICITY BECAUSE IF THE VOTERS FOCUS ON THIS THEN THEY WILL NOT SEE THAT HE IS IN FACT UNABLE TO RUN THE COUNTRY !! IT???S JUST A DIFFERENT FLAVOR OF KOOL AID!

I tell you, I do not know how I ever survived without Obama. Before my savior, Obama, I was a self-sufficient individual, masters degree in business and thought I knew what was best for my family. That was before I found out the Obama had a plan for me. I now look to him for guidance and to direct my life.

Without Obama, each and every one of us would be nothing. We owe our very existence to Obama. The rising of the sun is because Obama wishes it and wants to give us warmth.

Vote for Obama! If you do not then the world will end because our enemy, the Republican devil himself, will make us think for ourselves. Obama, please save me!

Heres a relevant story that left me very perplexed....

Mccaina and Obama recently had schedules to meet with a few hispanic organizations on the same day and in front of the same audience one hour apart. Due to this, Mccain contacted Obama and suggested that instead of speaking separately one hour a part, why don't they both stand up on the stage together and talk and take questions from the audience. Mccain suggested that...this way, the audience can compare and contrasts on their positions and ask them the relevant questions that these folks deemed important. Obama refused!

Why?

I tell you, I do not know how I ever survived without Obama. Before my savior, Obama, I was a self-sufficient individual, master???s degree in business and thought I knew what was best for my family.

Instead of saying that the new poll "suggests white voters continue to be a challenge for Obama" why don???t you write that "black voters continue to be a challenge for Senator McCain?" The way this article is written suggests that white voters that are voting for McCain are doing so due to some sort of racist attitude, while leaving out the fact that over 90% of black voters support Obama. Racist? Perhaps, but it also may be a tendency for people of any race to vote for those of their own race. The suggestion that voters who do not support Obama are uneducated buffoons may also come back to bite the Obama camp who have done such a good job of promoting this image. No one likes to be portrayed as ignorant. I believe that Obama???s star will continue to fade as the election cycle goes on and that this will be a very close race. This should be especially troubling to Democrats, given the current state of the Republican Party. After 30 years of strongly supporting Democrats, I find myself unable to support any candidate this election cycle. The Democrats have one again backed the wrong horse.

Any racism so far in this campaign has been perpetrated by Democrats. Republicans will embrace a black man as president just as they have embraced a black Supreme Court Justice, 2 black Secretaries of State and a black intellectual writer considered one of the great conservative leaders of our time. Obama is rated the most liberal senator on Capitol Hill--that's the reason most Republicans will not vote for him.
