HAL- How about some of the hateful, arrogant, pathetic comments of Obama supporters? They alone are enough to make one not want to vote, or vote for the opposite party. Maybe if the media had done their job and did a truthful examination of all these allegations against Obama the issues could have been laid to rest. Obama refuses to discuss them, the Media has purposely avoided them and because of this have raised allot of questions, like why?
Why does it always have to be about race??!! I do not like his ideology which is to take from the poor to give to the rich. I believe we already pay enough taxes to help the poor. Get over it being race and realize it is about not liking Bush that so many of the centrists are voting democratic. I don't think that Bush did a great job, however I still am not changing my beliefs from capitalism to socialism. That would be intolerable for America!
"That the common sense and decency of the American people will prove the skeptics wrong" In other words, if you don't vote for Obama you are racist. Maybe we are not voting based on his socialist idea, lack of support for the military, radical ties, poor economic policies, and just plain bad ideas that have never worked and never will. Or maybe we should all forget about the man and vote because the media is guilt triping everyone in to voting for the first black president. Perhaps Newsweek will write an article if (God forbid) Obama wins, about the racist black people who voted 98% for Obama. Don't count on it.
OK LISTEN UP! I AM SICK AND TIRED OF ALL THIS TALK OF SOCIALISM AND SOCIALIST. FUNNY IF ITS A BLACK MAN ITS CALLED THAT AND NOW COMMUNISM, BUT WHEN THESE SAME POLICIES WERE IN TACT AND THE PRESIDENTS HAVE BEEN WHITE, WHICH THEY ALLLLLLLLL HAVE BEEN IT WAS GOOD GOVERNMENT. LEARN TO SEE RACIMS FOR WHAT IT IS, MAKING EXCUSES FOR ONE AND CRITIZING ANOTHER. THATS IT IN A NUT SHELL.
From whom do you get your poll results? I, nor anyone I have even talked to, have been approached about voting.
I resent the tone of the article. It implys that Obama is so obviously the "perfect candidate" that if he loses, it will because of ingnorance and prejudice instead of the fact that many rightfully question his base of experience. Add to that, If I wanted to live in a socialist country, I would have moved to France long ago. I will not vote for him because he does not share my world view and I think his policies will weaken my country. As to the rest of the world rooting for him, I could't care less what they think. This is not a popularity contest with the rest of the word standing as judges. The author is in the tank like so many others, Of course, it is just an opinion piece
way to go Obama Camp. Cancell all appearances on a central Florida T.V. station just because Biden was asked simple, direct questions. Is this how it's gonna be if your elected? Media blackout just because you don't like the questions? Keep it up, we don't need you in the white house anyway! Oh, for you that didn't see it on this sight, ask yourself why it wasn't here? Come on News week Fair and balanced reporting s the goal of all media reporters.
There is no question and doubt that McCain-Palin's is a better ticket. The Obama-Biden's ticket would rob the hard working by way of increase in taxes and give away freebies to the lazy and welfare minded ignoble duds.
Americans are astute enough to stop this nonsense that Democrats would perpetuate. Let there be true reform and change after the election and that is to make all lazy people to work hard and bring their own food.

The choice between McCain and Obama is NOT about race. I clearly have voted for McCain for an overwelming number of reasons and we can only hope that, in the end, clear minds will prevail.
1. Experience counts: McCain's has served our Country his WHOLE life. Obama has a light and dubious recorsd.
2. Obama cannot be trusted: too many questionable associations keep surfacing and they are just brushed aside by Obama
3. Our country was not founded on Socialism and Obama is certainly going to take us there. Redistribution of wealth will kill the engine that has provided the USA with the biggest incentive to prosper.
4. Obama will be weak with terrorists and is NOT prepared to deal with the treats. His lack of Military service makes him ill prepared to take the helm of the world's only superpower.
Forget about Race, this is about the candidate and the issues. That is why I voted for John McCain.

What about all the terrorist afiliations that Palin has. Look into the actual history of the Alaskan Indepenance Party (there leader was killed trying to aquire C4, wanta guess what for?). Some how I can't eqate some one who believes in the succession of Alaska from the US with patriotism.
first off this economy has been been damaged directly by Democrat (Socailist) policies put in place with Jimmy Carter and added upon by Bill Clinton. Republicans repeatedly called for fixing this Fanny and Freddy mess, but was fought every step of the way by Dems, who were benifiting from these corrupt institutions. Secondly, every economist that I have heard say that Obama's economic plan and policies would plunge our ecomomy into a full blown "DEPRESSION". The problem with Democrats is that they feel that as long as they think they are doing something that helps, it doesn't matter if things get better or not as long as the intentions were good. The problem is, that from history the Democrats policys and plans do not work and the people that they claim to be helping end up worst off in the end. Please take a good look at the canidates in this election, and please, please do not vote to change the country that I leave to my kids into the next FAILED SOCIALIST EXPERIMENT. Socialism is proven not to work, and I can't believe there are so many people in this country that are willing to give it another try.
How can any American citizen in their right mind vote for a president with the name Barack Hussein Obama, what is this world coming to.
How can anyone vote for something with the name George W. Bush in the damn white house? Whats this world comming to.

It is ludicrous and just down-right silly for anyone to claim or state that it is wrong to vote for someone based on their name and even religion. This fear and hate-mongering strategy of the republicans must stop. This country belongs to all of us regardless of race or religion and everyone must be entitled to aspire to the highest office of this land. Gen. Powell gave a moving account of a young muslim who gave his life in defense of this country. The presidency should not be the sole right of those with blue eyes and European sounding last names!
OMWOW - there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with his name, just his Marxist indoctrination! END OF STORY PEOPLE
The reason Obama won't win is simple. He lies, his tax plan will not work, he associates with a terrorist and radicals and a felon is Rizko. He has never ran a business, he has zero experience, his foreign affairs plan is laughable at best to think that countries like Iran will set down and have a cup of coffee with him.He is trying to buy the election using acorn that he donated over $800,000 to. He wanst gun control, is NOT pro-life, how much more does anyone need to know. The mainstream media has given him a pass on every critical issue because they think he is the savior and rather trash Sarah Palin who has more experience than Obama BY FAR. Th.ey are more concerned about her clothes. For all of you media people out there that care about the clothes, she didn't buy them and they will be donated to charity after the election. I 'll Obama's $3500 suits won't be donated. By the way, wher do you think Obama's money is really coming from? Get a grip citizens if Obama is elected will be in for a depression. With him Polosie and Reed in charge we would be in over ours heads. Then comes Gaf Biden that finally said something true. Obama would be tested in 6 months and I for one am scared to death of what Obama would do in a crisis. Stutter like he does with most tough questions? Say what you want about Bush and he wasn't always right, but we haven't been attacked since 9-11. Folks we better wake up or the USA as we know it will be lost
I am shocked by the tone of this article. You accuse me of being a bigot and a racist because I am white and I won't vote for Obama. He is a socialist. I could have voted for Hillary or Biden if they where at the top of the ticket, but how can I vote for Obama? He hates the successful people in our society and wants to penalize them for their success. I am not all that excited about McCain, but I already voted early for him. If the Democrats want my vote, they need to have someone on the ticket that speaks to everyone, not just the socialist left.
You mean somebody White? Because I dont recall hearing the word "socialist" when Roosevelt to Clinton were in the White House.
Many of us Hillary supporters HAVE NOT crossed over to Obama !!! We can handle 4 years of McCain with a Democratic Congress.. Then it will be Hillary 2012 !!! Obama and Dona Brazile - eat your hearts out - LOSERS !!!!!!!!!!!!
GREAT ARTICLE. WHAT YOU FAILED TO MENTION IS THE OBVIOUS. HOW MANY BLACKS ARE VOTING FOR OBAMA JUST BASED ON RACE? SOME DO NOT EVEN KNOW WHO HIS RUNNING MATE IS, LET ALONE THE ISSUES. I HOPE OUR GREAT COUNTRY WAKES UP AND SEES HIM FOR WHAT HE REALLY IS.
There is the WRIGHT factor. Obama was a member of that Church for 20 years and we are suppose to believe he didn't inhale. The Media would rather say, if you aren't for Obama it has to be attributed to race. I'm not questioning whether Obama believes he is a Christian - I question if Wright's God is the same GOD I know.
Free Trade (My view) support the American Worker by giving every company that employs an American Worker a tax credit. Give a credit to any employer of 110% of their health benefit and payroll cost to the American Worker (Need to limit the 10% added credit to some number say $8000.). The credit would lower the cost of American made goods and therefore create jobs. KEEP JOBS & CREATE JOBS.
(My view) if only for a new employees - Employers will find a loop hole and layoff a 1000 in one city and hire 900 in another.
I need work, I need Health Insurance, But WRIGHT is a DEAL BREAKER.
OBAMANATION is an ABOMINATION!!!!!
Why do people think that Obama has enough experience to be president?, but that Sarah Palin does not have enough experience to be v.p., ? She has more experience in goverment , that he does, i think the American people should worry more about the Presidental cand. having the know how that he needs, if Obama gets elected we will be the laughing stock of the world........
TS39: Just WATCH.
Um, most of the world wants us to elect Obama and will be disgusted with us if McCain is elected. And no I am not talking about Arab states. England, Canada, Finland, Itay, Africa, etc... The world polls lean heavily toward Obama.
You're right. 97% of Russia is for Obama.
The notion that if Obama loses will only be because he is black is absurd. I can't believe people like this are allowed to spew such nonsense in a forum as large as this. The reason Obama will lose the election is because he is a socialist. Deep down most Americans know if they elect a socialist this country will go through a "change" that we may not be able to recover from. I believe that on election day the silent majority will make their voice heard, and John McCain will be the next President.
Here's a thought. Since there are those who play the race card, let's look at it in a positive way. If we're talking race, then let's consider that an Obama in the White House could end up being as good as a Tiger Woods on the golf course!
Well written and thoughtful article. It's hard for some to hear the Truth.
Interesting how some folks think being a Liberal is like an incurable disease.
Having a difference of opinion is a Privilege and not a curse. For 8 years we have tolerated a kind of Republican Socialism. Now it's time for a change.
Anything longer is called a Dictatorship. Maybe Some folks should take the time to read more and take a long look in the mirror.
It's all about the Economy and McCain doesn't have a clue how to fix it by his own admission. Seven houses later and 100 Million Dollars keeps McCain insulated from the Harsh reality of the Economic Crisis we in the Country is facing. All the Liv's should get it that he doesn't give a damn about any of us. By his own words he says he has a Great life and will go back to enjoying it if he doesn't win.
He NEVER said that he would feel bad or work to help this Country grow stronger if he loses. What a Hypocrite!
