    Please, just stop it. Stop, stop, stop. It's the media pundits like yourself that are perpetrating the idea that the only reason Obama can lose is if there is voter fraud and rampant racism. The fact of the matter is, many are not voting for Obama simply because his policies are unacceptable. He plays on the desire of the left for Utopia, and has no considered plan that will not cost billions. It's a simple as that. I am voting for a President. I am not voting for someone who has to have his "dad" sit in the room with him for every major decision.

    You totally absolutely and completely insult white voters when you attribute their voting for Mc Cain to racism.
    I was prepared to vote democratic for the first time in my life this , but who do the democratics give us.
    THE MOST LEFT WING CANDIDATE IN HISTORY. I'm not voting for Obama because he's a damn socialist.
    Unfortunately so many voters are buying his middle of the road campaign rhetoric. Look at the people that
    he's associated with for years in the past, America hating leftwingers. This man has bamboozled the American public.

    So If Obama loses it's only because of Racism? Anyone who votes for McCain is simply a racist? I have been lifelong democrat and have never voted republican, but I am not convinced Obama has what it takes. Beyond his speeches I have not seen a single policy that adress the current crisis any better than McCain. Apart from staying acting cool I don't see how Obama Presidency is going to solve the issues today. In fact he is noe borrowing the very ideas of Hillary he has ridiculed. I cannot believe that for the first time I am agreeing with the conservatives at lest when it comes to the liberal bias of the media. And I considered myself liberal leaning. I will be voting for McCain even if it just to spite the "coronation" of his Majest y "The One".

        You're not Italian then? Excellent! Now I don't have to be ashamed of having to share my heritage with the likes of you.

    I love the way the press has already decided for the American people that Obama will win. I hope not- how are we going to pay for all his wonderful ideas. We can't pay for much now. The press has considered Obama the second coming!!!!! Which he is NOT!!!!

  • Posted By: xtyt @ 10/26/2008 11:57:37 AM

    Will you all just stop it! Why is it that a person can vote against Obabma only because they are racist. Why is it that a well informed voter can simply decide that his policies are inappropriate, flawed and naive. He is unperpared! Period! Just stop it!!!

  • Posted By: alphadogreporter @ 10/26/2008 11:57:25 AM

    With about 85% of the media in the tank for Obama, have no fear, he will win. Articles like this are just filler by lazy reporters. The media hasn't scrutinized Obama or Biden, nor attacked their families, but McCain and Palin, and THEIR families, have been tried and convicted on an unprecedented scale. The fact is, the vast majority of the media has gone so far to the left, and is so jounalistaically unethical because of their hatred of conservatices, that even if Mccain/Palin were running against Karl Marx they would have a hard time winning.

    you guys at newsweek, and all around the US and world need to understand that Obama might lose, not because of his skin color, but because people simply don't agree with him or think he would be a good president. Insane isn't it?

  • Posted By: olandug @ 10/25/2008 4:26:43 PM

    Obama seems to have a Teflon quality because the American public is hesitant to criticize an African American. If Obama were white, he would have been crucified a long time ago.
    All Obama says in his speech is empty hyperbole. And like a Gumby without integrity, he bends his words to fit what the public wants to hear, prostituting his words for a vote.
    But his past actions and associations clearly demonstrate a hatred for this country.
    I have never given credence to the idea of an Anti-Christ, until now.

      The funniest thing about all this is people have looked through all the pandering and negative attacks that McCain makes not forgetting his erratic behavior at the podium, his suspension of the campaign, selection of a clueless VP and still blame Obama. Yeah the same guy who withstood Hillary.

      Why do you worry about the Anti-Christ.? Take a look at the desperate McCain and offer him Prozac.

      By the way...I'm Santa Claus...no really i am!

        He didn't withstand Hillary. He got the DNC and party elites to slime her

        • Posted By: Pia1981 @ 10/26/2008 11:56:11 AM

          No, News...and you know it. Please stop blaming Obama and the DNC for Hillary's loss.

        Well said! McCain/Palin=dumb and dumber.

      Marion Barry.

      Marion Barry was disgraced. Publicly.

      He was black.

      Clarence Thomas and the cheating?

      I suppose artists and athletes don't count in your argument?

        Nope, Bush is the anti-Christ!!

    If Americans fail in this crucial vote to bring in Obama, you can bet the world will turn its back on U.S.A.

    And honestly, since when was 'liberal' and 'socialism' a dirty word? Since when was helping your fellow man something to be afraid of?

    Oh, and by the way, people who think U.S.A. is the only land of opportunity, they're wrong. Example 1: Look north. It's called Canada. :)

    • Posted By: Thisisajoke @ 10/26/2008 11:27:21 AM

      If you think Canada is so great maybe you should live there. Canada is now having problems.
      Get you health care in Canada, wait 6 months to have surgery and possibly die before it's done.

      • Posted By: Zajda @ 10/26/2008 11:34:27 AM

        Funny you should say that, actually....

        By the way, at least everyone gets health care in Canada. It doesn't matter how many houses you own. And if it comes down to it, we're flown into U.S.A. for fast health care - paid for by the Canadian government. Isn't it strange that Canadians have better access to American health care because all Canadians have the money to pay for it?

        • Posted By: IBZee @ 10/26/2008 11:54:11 AM

          Actually, they dont ALL have better access to American health care. Only the ones who can pay after paying all those taxes. That's why you have so many Canadians in places like Korea teaching English, so they can have money, eh

    consider:
    (1) the voter fraud in Florida in 2000 and 2004...blacks were intimidated

    what a useless and moronic waste of bits and bytes!

  • Posted By: viny @ 10/26/2008 11:49:23 AM

    and I though RACE was not going to be made an issue in this campaign to start on the higher moral grounds, but I guess nothing matters as long as you "win"

    Biden gaff again

  • Posted By: viny @ 10/26/2008 11:47:19 AM

    you could have written the article in one line

    so mccain should not win b'cos it would look like the whites did not vote for the black guy in the record number

  • Posted By: Danom @ 10/26/2008 11:47:11 AM

    Wendydk: Did you miss med call today you seem so hostile. You need to get over that Obama can't walk on water. I hope you take therphy seriously. The Imbecile

  • Posted By: jupmod @ 10/26/2008 11:47:07 AM

    This article scares me. If McCain wins due to this kind of scenerio, I will not ever see America as a symbol of truth and freedom ever again. It will become a theocracy run by religious conservatives who want everyone to do things their way no matter what. Such a victory for McCain would be a cheap shot and a slap on the face for those who truly want to see America change after 8 years of Bush and political isolation from the rest of the world. Enough is enough!

  • Posted By: VoterUSA @ 10/26/2008 11:46:42 AM

    Florida news anchor, just let the world see what fools ObamaBiden really are. How will the face the White House Press Corp? They cant even answer questions from one news anchor. This is just too funny

  • Posted By: jethro706 @ 10/26/2008 11:43:17 AM

    I was not referring to Obamanation, I was looking at the other mispells. We must have hit a nerve.

  • Posted By: ReaganDemocrat59 @ 10/26/2008 11:43:09 AM

    Race, Race, Race!! Are we actually going to seat a President by means of affirmative action? I hope not. Look at the man's record and affiliations. Take away the race factor and what do you have, honestly? Look at ALL the facts and base your decision on that. God help us if this is what we've come to.

  • Posted By: wendydk @ 10/26/2008 11:42:07 AM

    Danom: Not reading Newsweek and watching only Faux News is still not going to change the facts. Imbecile.
