    You will be sorry sounds frightening to me...............I hope he or she doesn't ever get the chance to run for office.........way too much fear and hatred!

    Aspirations, I am NOT defending the people that are very immature and making fun of Michelle Obama. I just find it funny that you laughed and mocked Sarah Palin and many of you are intolerant of the Religious Right. But if anyone says ANYTHING about your icons and people get put down. I guess we as Conservatives better get used to it because it is going to go on for 4 years.

      You guys had no trouble doing it in 2000 and 2004.

      • Posted By: youwillbesorry @ 11/06/2008 5:45:09 PM

        I didn't do it in '00 or '04 but by God I will now....
        I am not a repubican or a dimocrap.....
        But I am going to give back to the left what it has given the administration for the last 8 years..,.
        Nothing but HELL.
        Nothing but CONTEMPT.
        LIBERALS SUCK AND MICHELLE OSAMA IS AN UGLY RACIST HAG.
        If I had a question for the "queen bitch" it would be:

        Is that your FACE... or did your neck THROW UP?

    Do you guys not realize that 56 million people voted against Barack Obama? Sorry but not everyone worships him as if he is the second coming. So for every one of you morons who voted a junior senator into the most powerful office in the land...there is another person who does not believe he is fit for the job. So not everyone is going to line up behind him. I'll give him as much respect and support as all the Dems gave Bush the last 8 yrs.

      "Do you guys not realize that 56 million people voted against Barack Obama? Sorry but not everyone worships him as if he is the second coming. "

      Yeah, but you lost.

      So sorry.

      • Posted By: 922cmarsh @ 11/06/2008 5:26:02 PM

        That's not what I'm trying to say...it just if you think 56 million people are just going to start liking him or even respecting him...they aren't. I think he has brainwashed people somehow...very bizarre. He is going to be worse than Carter. Look at the stock market already. People who actually make money know what is coming....people who voted for Obama (blacks, poor, etc.) who depend on the business community have no idea what they have done.

        • Posted By: Kboogie @ 11/06/2008 6:39:41 PM

          I think it was more than just blacks and poor who voted Obama. He got 57% of the vote. Blacks are only 12% of the electorate, Latinos and Asians are maybe 3%. The other 42% would be.......(drumroll)........WHITES!!

          The only part of the population that McCain won the majority of was WHITES over 65%.

          That's alot, kiddo.

    As a boomer that experienced the hope of JFK and Bill Clinton and thought I would never feel that hope again, I cried when my new President was elected. I am white but I never look at my new President as a black man, only a young, idealistic, obviously intelligent gentle man that has walked in my shoes. I saw a man with a vision for this country that was similar to my own. I see in our new First Lady an bright, lovely, accomplished women with the grace and charm and taste of Jacqueline Kennedy but more than that, I see a mother. I came from an extremely poor background and have worked and clawed my way to a modest lifestyle at the lower end of the middle class scale only to go through a horrible bankruptcy and lose it all at age 55 and find myself starting over. I had hit the bottom of dispair until this year when our new President stood up to lead me. He realizes we all have a rough time ahead and I am proud to do what little I can do to help him lead us into the sunshine.

    Mrs. Obama definitely needs some style. Democrats are notorious for their tacky way of dressing. Look at the garb Hillary and Tipper Gore wore when they first got in the Whitehouse. Those Hats!!! There is no need to look "country" or Hip Hop when you get to this level. Hope she finds some class. . .

    • Posted By: tbrown1421 @ 11/06/2008 6:23:15 PM

      Apparently you have no clue what CLASS is! It's not determined by the way you dress, but how you carry yourself, your level of intellegence and the character of your being. A prostitute can wear Prada, it doesn't give her class!!!

    • Posted By: pjiloveamerica @ 11/06/2008 3:20:17 PM

      I guess the Democrats need to go out and buy Mrs. Obama (First Lady) a $150,000.00 wardrobe like the Republicans did for Senator Sarah Palin (oops) Oh, Those clothes were donated to charity??? Give me a break , The First Lady dresses very nice. (J Crew, Black&white, Nordstrom, Macy???s etc..).

    • Posted By: Navymom38 @ 11/06/2008 3:14:43 PM

      Why are you so worried about her class, tell me now do you have a degree from Harvard?

      ha ha ha ha ha!!!! You are hysterical!!!!!!! You think that because you make a snide comment about the way someone dresses, that makes you better! Well, every night when you go to sleep, and you're thinking about your gorgeous wardrobe in your closet (yeah, right), just remember that beautiful Michelle is going to sleep in the White House! I guess that trumps you, huh?!?!?!?!?!

    Stock market tanking again today....by the time Obama is president it will be a like the Stock Market Crash back in 20's....We will be in a the worst recession we've ever had...why??? because of all the "promises" he has made of things he will do.....shut down the coal industry..shut the coal fired plants...tax anyone who makes more than 120,000 dollars a year according to Bill Richardson....take our 1st and 2nd ammendment rights...and the list goes on and on. He wants to disarm our Military and sit back and wait for another attack on this great country!!!!! You call that a democracy? I call the new president elect a joke. And like the lady in the video from nbc6 in miami..peggy...Obama said if I help him he'll help me..he's going to buy my gas for my car and pay my mortagage...Well Peggy..you need and others just like need to get a grip. The country will be BANKRUPT and there is no Obama the Messiah can do any of what he promised all of you who are too lazy to get off you A$$es and get a job like the rest of us had to do. I don't want to share my wealth with anyone - by alone anyone who is lazy. GET REAL PEOPLE!!!

    • Posted By: vlamb @ 11/06/2008 6:20:45 PM

      Are you seriously suggesting that Obama somehow caused this recession. It's been coming for months and months, and the wheels were set in motion a few years back. Gosh, go learn and study things. You aren't making any sense.

      Chris - it's better when you don't talk about things you know nothing about. The stock market is reacting to things that are going on during the current (in case you can't remember, his name is George Bush) administration. There have been several earnings warnings yesterday and today (Arcilor Mittal, Cisco, Meredith Whitney commenting that there are only three "safe" banks, and that they are overpriced), and then we are expected a bad jobs report tomorrow. I know you think you know it all, but I'd like to remind you that he doesn't take office until January. So, Chris - Big George gets to take the blame for this one!!!!!!!!

    I know this is trite - but let's hope the White House furnishings take on an updated / newer look.
    Out with the OLD stuff...time to update - say a bit more Crate & Barrel / Pottery Barn / Mitchell Gold.
    I'm sure the National Achieves would be happy to store the old stuff.

  • Posted By: kcda @ 11/06/2008 1:22:22 PM

    I agree that his race was a factor. People shouldn't have voted for Obama just because he's black. Just as well, people should not have voted for McCaine just because he was a war hero or because he is white.

    • Posted By: Truth_Be_Told @ 11/06/2008 1:30:51 PM

      I saw CNN asking a black lady if race was a factor in her vote for Barack...she responded respectfully. The only reason Barak was elected was because of all the racist votes he received. Until the African American community eliminates the racist tendencies within their communities...they'll never be respected. They should look at the examples of other minorities (Asians, Hispanics to name a few.)

      • Posted By: lovepeople @ 11/06/2008 1:42:59 PM

        The African American community has always voted Democratic. So now that there was an African American, the only reason Blacks voted for him was because he was African American?.....Please!

        • Posted By: joe the bummer @ 11/06/2008 2:23:01 PM

          for the record, blacks have never turned out in America to vote like this; and it would not suprise me if that were the case anywhere else they are getting freebies

            You are really silly. First of what about whites and freebies. Hence the 700 billion bailout. There are other blacks that weren't voted into office let just help you out Al Sharpton, Jessie Jackson, and Alan Keyes (R).

      Michelle Obama's beauty radiates from her sole? That is the bottom of her feet, in case you did not know. Is that because she is black? Or is that because now her black husband is President Elect. Yes, I am tired of hearing about President Obama. Anyone that has taken Civics in high school would know that.

But when you pray, he doesn't hear you, unless you are praying a sinners prayer. Get off the christains because we

        One thing about it though, they won't be wasting money like whites do on tanning salons trying to get darker like beautiful African American skin is. They won't be wasting money on cologen like whites do so their lips can be full and voluptuous like African Americans' lips are. They won't be wasting money on Botox because unlike white, "Black don't crack". So whatever they want to eat, so be it. Now you better run along, I'm sure you're running late for your daily tanning session. And please, I hope you're not one of the multitude of usual whites in line at the local soul food restaurant today. I feel like some fried chicken.

    • Posted By: Breasy @ 11/06/2008 1:00:37 PM

      This is sad. I did not vote for Obama, I am sad that he won, but certainly not because of his race. I am just a conservative who sees things differently. McCain was not my first choice, either, but since it was either/or, I chose him. But my point is, this kind of thinking is helping no one. It is wrong that some people did not vote for Obama because of his race, and equally sad that so many voted for him BECAUSE of his race. This should have been about the issues, start to finish, not what color someone's skin happens to be. Shame on you.

      • Posted By: kat48315 @ 11/06/2008 2:59:56 PM

        Too bad that this was about race for the majority of the blacks that voted for him. Go to you tube and search "harlem voters". Howard Stern did a piece where people from Harlem were asked who they would vote for and when they said Obama, the voters were given several reasons why and each policy that was mentioned and agreed on by the people were the policies of John McCain. The Harlem voters were also asked if they thought Obama made a good choice in picking Palin for his running mate and all AGREED that she was a good choice and that they supported his decision.
        These are the kind of people that made this man president. I am not against him because of the color of his skin, that has never been an issue with me. I am against him because of his policies. I am not against him because he wants to bring CHANGE to America, I am against him because of the type of change he wants to bring.
        Revelation says that he will have authority on earth for 42 months. God guide us and protect us til then

      • Posted By: areyoukidding? @ 11/06/2008 1:53:22 PM

        EXACTLY!! I've been wating for someone to say that! I think it's about time that America had a black president - I'm just kind of sad that it's this one. I voted against Obama - not because I'm a racist, but because I don't agree with his stands and philosophies. I chose to judge the man by the content of his character (or at least what I knew of his character) and not by the color of his skin. I wish President-elect Obama and his wife and family all the best, and I hope my misgivings about him will turn out to be unfounded. One good thing that I hope will come from his presidency is that we can finally move past all the hatred and bigotry - from all sides of the "racial divide" and learn that any American can have a chance at accomplishing their dreams if they work hard at it. I hope that someday there will be a day when we can look at a white American, a black American, or any other American from whatever ethnic group and just see An American.

      • Posted By: ChecksAndBalance @ 11/06/2008 1:34:45 PM

        Breasy, I agree with you completely. As in all elections it is supposed to be about the issues, not about whether r not you are Democrat or Republican. Black or White and to continue with any kind of racial bias is ridiculas. IF those that voted for him because of his race did so for only that reason, they shouldn't hve been allowed to vote. After all did the people elect JFK because he was catholic, or because they believed he was the right person for the job at hand. All of the racist bickering happening here in this does not improve or help heal any racial problems, it actually just keeps the fire fueled. Lets look past the color of a mans skin and just Pray that he does what he said he would do to improve the economy, the housing problem and most of all to Raise the image of America around the world. We were at one time revered as the country that people of the world looked at with some admration because of what we had accomplished n the 200 years we have existeds. Most of all we should all consider ourselves lucky that we have the FREEDOM to elect our president, not just have him overthrow the existing government.

          Why is it that all of a sudden America has now elected Barack Obamna that everybody is Proud of America. Everyonbe should be Proud of America all the time, not just because the candidate they liked won the election. II hope that as President Barack will be able to accomplish all that he has promised the American People during hius campaign. But as with any other Politician it takes both sides to make things work. That is why our founding fathers of this country called it "Checks and Balances" Refering to people as Ignorant rednecks isn't any different than calling some one "B;ack" or any other color. We are all humans and we all live in the same country. Be proud of it and Defend it with all of your heart and mind.

          • Posted By: Ranceco @ 11/06/2008 2:34:05 PM

            People can now be proud of America because she is now closer to the "...and liberty and justice for all", closer to "the land of the free......". That has not been the case in the entire history of America.

    • Posted By: jamesw68 @ 11/06/2008 10:22:48 AM

      Just another stereotypical comment by someone who doesn't really know black people...and has not made an effort to become knowledgeable. Their perception is that because African Americans eat fried chicken & collard greens, listen to R&B, jazz & rap (as do white people) that they are incapable (unintelligent) of running this country for the good of all). Fortunately, Harvard Law School & the Harvard Review (of which Obama was president) didn't think the same way you do). Oh yeah! Don't forget about Michelle Obama (Harvard Law). Don'e be afraid that African Americans are just as intelligent as their white neighbors (or maybe you should be a little afraid). Regardless of the skin color, we are all the same under God.

          Little known to you, the Europeans would frown in the face of you being compared to them. Read a little, travel in life and you will see just how stupid you sound. How about we just call you DUMB!!

      Hey, weren't Col. Sanders (KFC) and Popeye (Popeye's) white? Just wondering.

      To all of my beautiful brothers and sisters of all races, thank you for standing up for change for OUR country. It is time to put outdated ideologies behind us and embrace our future together as ONE american people!

      Are you real?People that voted for Obama color wasn't an issue. People who voted for Mc Cain ,well I hope there were not many who voted for him because it is an issue. If they took your brain and set it on the edge of a razor blade it would look like a pea on a four lane highway.

          I for one have not idea were our country is headed, I thought a long hard time before going to the poll and voting. I did not know until the very moment I cast my vote at how I would vote, I just voted for who in my heart I felt would be the better President in these troubled times, I remebered something my grandparent told me long ago, we as a nation can pull ourselves out of a drpression, we have before, but the one thing we can not afford to lose is our freedom, I voted for who I felt would keep our freedom. McCain did not win, so I pray that with his loss we did not also lose our freedom, only time will tell. I do hope Obama the best because he is who will lead our nation for the next four years and only with time will any of us know how well he will do. God Bless America and ALL her people.

      William69 - you have not notice during the past 21 plus months that the Obama family is in shape, THIN with muscles!!! I'm sure they don't consume fried food, often... Fried chicken & watermelon are not just purchased by blacks - we white (yes, we Whites) eat everything blacks eat. Life changes every day, roll with it or be ROLLED OVER BY IT!!!

      It's the dummies like you that put Barak in office. First, Fried chicken is a southern cuisine that all you white southerns love to eat. You also eat greens, cornbread, black eyed peas and other southern dishes. These are dishes that whites and blacks love to cook. And of course we should include all the "wonderful" white artists like Amy Winehouse on the list for visitors to the white house. she is definitely a perfect representation of white people. Before you spew your ignorant hate please read a book (if you know how to read) and educate yourself before making these crazy comments!

    • Posted By: hestiagwyn @ 11/06/2008 7:06:54 AM

      "Barry" never experienced the "hood". How would he know how to replicate it? He was brought up in "white" neighborhoods with his white mother and grandparents. His father never experienced the "hood" either. Barak, Sr. was a black African and their experience of life is completely different from the black Americans' experience.
      You, like many others, have no understanding or desire to understand anything beyond yourself. You fail to grasp the notion that there are other places and peoples and cultures that function "differently" and that those differences are not bad or wrong. I thank God that we are not all like you. Difference is good and pushing ourselves to understand that which is different creates character and we are changed in the process. It is the simple closed mindedness and ignorance of our current leadership that has brought us to the place we are today.
      I am so ready for the USA to once again be leaders, by example, in the world as we were for generations. I am weary of the self-righteous indignation and pompous attitude with which the USA deals with others cultures, countries, peoples and beliefs. I have hope and I am willing to do my part to make reparations to the world for the past decade.

  • Posted By: BrandiMom @ 11/06/2008 6:08:30 PM

    As a white cherokee mix from a long military lineage, I voted for McCain. I must say that I totally adore MICHELLE! She has her act togetther. She is brillant and my perfect ticket, now that I have seen enough of Micelle, is Michelle Obama and Sarah Palin and get the old boys club OUT! Nothing like brillant women to straighten up a HOUSE! I am excited to the Obama's are going to move into Washington. Although a life long card carrying Republican and still one, I just pray the economy gets backed up by some good old gold or I see trouble regardless of who is President.

  • Posted By: PaulPaulos @ 11/06/2008 12:43:49 PM

    Is it not fashionable or even not politically correct to offer up my opinion (my opinion now so don't get all defensive) that Michelle is not exacttly the nicest looking pear on the tree, esp. since the Obamas have so often been compared to the Kennedys with Jackie O or even with McCain's wife. I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and if millions were blind to the qualities of her husband, they will surely be blind to her "beauty" as well. I guess I find her terrically unattractive, that's all...

        Michelle is a natural woman, like most Americans, white or black.

      Palen is best at what she does best and she has 5 to prove it! Then again she's not all that good at raising them because she's already got a grandchild on the way!!! I guess her beauty got her far! Michelle Obama will do fine because she has the right foundation.

      • Posted By: PaulPaulos @ 11/06/2008 4:01:50 PM

        Tri626, another jealous woman (aka bowser) attacking a beautiful woman. When will you dateless wonders let up and simply acknowledge she looks alot better than Michelle (not my Bell)...That's all I said. Ask your boyfriend or girlfriend, all things being equal, would he/she rather share a luxury rooom with..you (right0 or Palin

        What does her looks have to do with anything? Really, give one solid reason that she should be a beauty queen and how that would change anything. I'm just glad we're on a different path.

          Enter Your Comment Looks don't matter, ay. So why did the Dem party spend over 50,000 $$ on photo stills since the Dem convention to make Obama look less like Ichabod Crane. Anyway, what I said (and as an American I don't need your permission to say so) is that the Obama's are not an attractive bunch to me...to me..get it ! You might truly think Michelle is drop dead gorgeous. To each his own, but check your eyes will you, before you vent yourself on me again, ay

    • Posted By: HurleyOkeiffe @ 11/06/2008 12:56:34 PM

      Yeah, well the majority of Americans don't vote on beauty, or else Sarah Palin would be in office right now! What a shallow thing to say! We're talking about our First Lady here, not Miss America! I happen to thing that her intelligence, compassion, and integrity make her more beautiful that Mrs. Palin or Mrs. McCain could ever be!

      • Posted By: PaulPaulos @ 11/06/2008 1:29:34 PM

        Hurley, sorry if you thik of a comment about her looks as Unamerican. Like I said, I just find her very much not so, esp. every time theyr bring up Jackie O. Besides, I would bet many Rep. men thought Palin was quite hot. Not you, of course, apparently since that is such a unimportant issue. Right !! That's why millions are spent on photographers to make Obama look less geeky...It's all about the message, and much about the image. You know that..

    Someone made a comment that they "just can't see Michelle in the White House"--WHY?????
    Is it because she has a Law Degree and may be too smart, or that she has two well grounded children, or that she's an intelligent beautiful women???? Or, is it because she is well spoken and can answer any question asked of her intelligently, Or, is it because she "can't see Russia from her house, or, that you can't imagine anyone that does't "LOOK" like you in the White House? I've been voting for Presidents since 1968 and I haven't had the pleasure (until now) to see a first lady of my race in the White House!!!! GET OVER IT

      The only thing I could add is that she is badly in need of a makeover. Starting with her horse mouth.

        Her children love her, her friends love her, her colleagues respect her, and as the world now knows, she is the love of her husband's life. Plus she is beautiful, talented and very very intelligent. How silly that you are talking about makeovers.

        Ruckus, why do you think it is that every white person voting for Obama has to announce it is as so. Is it a) do you want kudos for being so openminded b)do you want your friends and loved ones to tell you how awesomely cool you are or c) do white people say they voted Obama simply because their hippie or yuppie parents beat it into them as kids that they should never take a vote that will keep the black man down (by the way, that concept was a lyric in a punk rock song called "White Guilt"...so to me meeting thousands in my voting place, mostly giddy whites, I' ll go with c) as the correct answer..."White Guilt"

      Wow! How superficial are you?!?!?!? Michelle is a very intelligent, beautiful black woman who is confident and very grounded. She is an excellent wife and loving mother! She will be the perfect First Lady! She is to be admired for all of her accomplishments. Maybe as a African - American woman, my standard of so-called "traditional" beauty is very different from yours, but in my opinion, and a strong majority of other, Michelle Obama is the complete package - style & grace, smart as a whip and absolutely beautiful on the INSIDE AND OUT!!!!!!! Who ever you are - if you are a man...SHAME on you and if you are a woman...you should know better! A makeover, huh? How shallow!!!

      • Posted By: hlzbelle @ 11/06/2008 5:57:53 PM

        To talluvshoes: I am a white woman who agrees with you wholeheartedly. I live in DC and can't wait for the Obamas to arrive. We will definitely welcome them and Michelle can't help but "class up" the place a bit.
