Anatomy of a Tight Race

What has happened to the Reagan Republicans? Remember them...those who represented decency and respect for the human race, family values and morals. Who are these new Republicans? Why have loyal Republicans allowed an ugly and unfaamiliar decay and decadence an opportunity to destroy the once pride and sturdy foundation of the Republican Party. The REPUBLICAN PARTY is being reduced to the lowest level of a vile and contaminated type of politics! The REPUBLICAN PARTY as chosen mockery over decency as the party continues to use slimy, disgusting and nauseous tactics to destory those who disagree with them.

The new Republican Party has adapted the Rush Limbaugh mentality! How can anyone approve of someone that would suggest that John Edward's wife talks too much, and was unwilling to use her mouth to make her husband sexually happy! According to Rush, when that happens, it's OK to have an affair. Is this an example of what members of the New Republican Party stands for, approves of and laugh at because you have to have a little humor in politics! Unfortunately, many respectable and honorable Republican senators, state representatives, and governors could be voted out of office because of the distasteful reprsentation and image of a few bitter and deceitful political figures that's trying to shape the New Republican Party.

I am but one voice, but can clearly state I really don't care for the McCain-Rove - Bush-Rush Republicans, and will not vote the ticket until it is willing to return to the principles and ideology that once was the cornerstone of the Republican Party!

May God have mercy on us if people continue to allow the New Republican Party to replace what was once the "Republican Party of the United States of America"!

Just another article telling us how great McCain is and why Obama is going to lose. The media has clearly cast its vote for Jingo John. Obama cannot win with a fawning and compliant media backing ol' John. This race is over. Nice work, media.I hope you guys love ol'John as much when he gets in the White House.

You former Clinton supporters who will not vote for Obama are IDIOTS! They stand for the same things and if you were true Democrats you would support him like a true team player. You are trouble makers..maybe Republicans. Obama won the pimary FAIR & Square so get over it!! I have supported Obama from the beginning but I have to admit that by the end of the primary I did respect Hilary for her grit and I respect her eeven more now for supporting Obama. If you can't stand with Hilary next to Obama than you never did in the first place. As I said YOU ARE TROUBLE MAKERS!!!!!

This campaign is a fight to the finish. Until SOMEONE focuses on Obama's many failings. If the press would accurately cover some of the stories out there; Obama wouldn't even be in consideration.

Point of fact; anyone of the following should have been a showstopper for his campaign:
Rezko and his support (bribes) to Obama
W. Ayers
Rev Wright (not the man; Obama's support of the theology)
M Obama's America hatred
Ill. voting record
Ill. live baby bill - and votes
lack of experience
lack of success as anything but a slick tongue.

I tend to believe that these polls may not be all they're cracked up to be.
For one, I've never polled nor do I know anyone who has.
A two, you don't know what the question are, and how they're posed by the pollsters. Peple talk about how many people voted for Hillary, well you have to remember that Obama received the 2nd highest amount of votes than any other candidate in history, and I don't believe that all of a sudden these people who were so passionate during the primaries, have all of a sudden changed their minds especially to vote for someone like McCain. As Gertrude Stein once said "there is no there, there"

i would vote for mcCain rather than barack hussein obama, americans would be save under mcCain's watch no doubt.

Obama is still a "big hate, no cattle" kind of candidate. If he didn't change that from 26 to 46 what chance does he have in about 70 days. I am a democrat and sick of hearing about him.

I take comfort that Obama will be able to take all the negative crud the Repubs throw at him and voters will be disgusted. I think Obama will be a landslide winner. I agree that the thought of McCain for 4 years would be a train wreck and I am confident voters will come to that realization when they start to get serious about the upcoming election. I also take great delight in hoping the negative campaign and Bush disatisfaction will result in a Democratic landslide unseen in my lifetime! It will be fun to see the fallen jaws of my Repub friends after Obama wins, similar to mine after Bush won both times- a travesty! But this change will be a good one and I think Obama will show in short order he was the right man at the right time!

Wow kas_wolf....it's amazing how many people are STILL so ignorant when it comes to Obama. The bitterness and pointing fingers show such a lack of open mindedness and understanding the diversity Obama has come from. The "hatred" of Michelle Obama...really? I don't think you've done your fair share of homework.

Elea,once again you in the MSM still DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT IS GOING ON.No matter what any of you say,or in that matter HRC,I,personaly amot going to vote for Barrack Hussein Obara.He is a wonderfull guy but he does not have a clue about leadership let alone being the leader of the complicated,powerfull country on earth.Once someone is invested with that power,we can not take it back until 4 years later,and only God knows what someone like him can do with that power.e in mind his associations,his votes/no vote,his lack oxperiences,his background and mutch more things we do not know about him.Do not get me wrong he is closer to me than any African americans who are dying to vote for him;I am a naturilized us citizen from.............Africa!

The more people know him, the less they like him. All downhill since New Hampshire, narrowly escaped the primaries. Bye, bye Barry.

I am soo happy the Legislative branch will be run by the Democrats because it is inevitable that the Executive Branch will once again be Republican. I am a life long Democrat but can not believe that the Party leadership (or lack thereof) pushed such an inexperienced candidater at the Party. I am very saddened but my GOOD JUDGEMENT will not allow me to vote for such inexperiencesas Senator Obama displays.

So, we've attained majority age and our emotions still not under our direct control. I thought when I grew up I would be able to look at things in a cool, calm, calculated and controlled way. I have yet to succeed at such a lofty goal. I seem to have plenty of company though. It is amazing so many people sabotage themselves and their families because of irrational emotions. You get what you vote for. You got 8 years of the oil-tax, war-tax, mortgage fraud, republican machine tanning your backside, wanna make it sixteen?
