Interactive Graphic: Swing States on the 2008 Electoral Map

People are tired of all the hate rhetoric that has become the mantra for the republican party. You right wingers keep it up it is helping us unpatriotic, unamerican, cowards and traitors immensely.

I just wish someone could tell me why 95% of the media is not telling the truth about Obama's connections and his beliefs...
It is amazing how many people are following blindly with so many RED flags.. Where there's smoke there's fire and there is a lot of smoke around this person... He is friends with terroist and with the PLO not to mention his Pastor that he only broke from when it started hurting his polling numbers.. funny he was there for 20 plus years.... a leapord can not change his spots and he doesn't even want to....

blacks need Obama to send the check

If people vote for BO because he is 'black' then MLKJ's dream still hasn't been realized.

i see only one issue in america it is that white people are really racist and even though it is by percentage the white middle class who are taking a beating on home morgage because black people already learned though learned behavior how to live poor the white's through perjudice will still vote for mcclain after 8 years of taking a beating from the republican party lead i say if you kick a dog and he don't move you can keep kicking him until he finnaly wil so if white people want to keep getting kicked in the you know what oh well they might as well give the republicans the grease so it want hurt so much because the republicans will keep kicking the white middle class becaus in order to help them they would have to help the black middle class and you knopw they dont want that and one more thing mrs palin keeps saying that barack voted over 90 times for is she saying that barack voted against 90 times is she sayin that while in office she never voted against a bill was always a yes mame for her party i dont get it

dangstraight, you are obviously an UNEDUCATED redneck! Now go run along, and play your drinking game with the rest of your Joe six-pack buddies.

The NY Times says that Mr. Obama has met challenge after challenge, growing as a leader and putting real flesh on his early promises of hope and change. He has shown a cool head and sound judgment. We believe he has the will and the ability to forge the broad political consensus that is essential to finding solutions to this nation???s problems.

In the same time, Senator John McCain of Arizona has retreated farther and farther to the fringe of American politics, running a campaign on partisan division, class warfare and even hints of racism. His policies and worldview are mired in the past. His choice of a running mate so evidently unfit for the office was a final act of opportunism and bad judgment that eclipsed the accomplishments of 26 years in Congress.

Here are my thoughts:
Obama wants to give tax breaks to 95% of the US citizens. The other candidate calls the plan socialism because it does not help the 5% that make more than a quarter million dollars a year. Which side of that fence do YOU sit on?

Obama believes that lobbyists & special interests have strangle-hold on agenda, there should be more disclosure around earmarks, there should be a "Google for Government" to track government spending, that everybody deserves healthcare like members of Congress have, that we should make the minimum wage a living wage, that cutting benefits & raising retirement age are wrong answers for Social Security, that there should be no tax increase if earning under $250K; tax cuts for those under $75K, that we should never negotiate out of fear, and never fear to negotiate, that the President must abide by international human rights treaties, that we should strengthen NATO to face 21st-century threats, that there should be strong labor, safety, and environmental standards on trade, s that we should enforce environmental & labor provisions in trade agreements, that we should eliminate government programs that no longer work, we hold corporations responsible for pensions & work conditions, we should close tax loopholes for US companies relocating abroad, we should prevent money laundering by disclosing corporate owners, that the death penalty should be enforced fairly and with caution, we should not lower the drinking age from 21 to 18, we should invest in early childhood education and higher education, that teacher merit is pay ok if based on career instead of a single test....

No matter what color your state - unless you are in the millionaires club, what's not to like in the Obama platform???

"Comment: Comment: You think this race is close?

Obama is supported by less then thirty percent of the voting public and ninety percent of the media elite. When all is said and done we will be sitting down to watch the networks belly up to a healthy helping of crow while listening to Democrats cry about how unfair it was that people would actually vote for God and country rather then to commit to pocketbook issues of the immoral minority.

"

What country have you been in? less than thirty percent of the voters? you realize you are bing unrealistic and all the national and state polls do not agree with you. But I'm sure your pastor told you this and added. P"pray for McCain."
