I believe in Mr. Obama we have a rare opportunity to have a representative that is REALLY willing to work across party lines to get things done.  In addition he is extremely intelligent, well spoken and charasmatic.  I think it's a good idea for him to do this before he becomes tainted like many other politicians.  He may not have much experience but I'll take that over the same ol' BS. with Hillary and McCain any day of the week.

you guys are nuts, you want to put a guy who has no experience in the most important job. A guy who is going to let Oprah Winfrey decide policy. Give me a break. He may be a good speaker but he has no balls to deal with Republicans, they will destroy him if he gets in the office.

Jimmy Carter was exactly like Obama and he got into office and it was a disaster. He had no idea how to get anything done and was out played by Republicans time and time again. He had a lot of nice ideals but got nothing done.

and he keeps beating hilary, and he keeps schooling McCain in polls of a head-to-head matchup.

I'm guessing the ppl who keep saying that, are the ones who aren't ready.  The majority of the country, according to everything we're seeing - is ready.

Clinton 92 had no experience, and did a good job.

Cheney had more experience than anyone in DC - what kind of job did he do running the show for 7 years?

Decision-making ability is more inportant than anything else- and Obama voted against the war when all these experienced people voted for it.  He made a better decision, despite having less experience.  he'll surround himself with smart, experienced people who will help him make better decisions.

That's what I thought too but this guy ain't goin nowhere, it is very surprising to me.  I think the young people in this country are really showing up at the polling booths.

This will sound funny coming from me, but If he does a good job and gets this country moving in the right direction, I don't give a fuck what color he is.

Men, women, it doesnt matter.  he inspires ppl.  Sure, you'll always have 5% of people that won't vote for a black man, just like you'll have a % who won't vote for a guy who promised "100 years in Iraq" and "more wars to come" (Mccain)

You're right about that. What we need to do educate the American people so that they'll realize it when they're leaders are fucking them in the shitter. Make sure the president obeys the fucking law and doesn't dare make any attempt to harm our liberties or cause conflict with fellow nations.

I'm guessing the ppl who keep saying that, are the ones who aren't ready.  The majority of the country, according to everything we're seeing - is ready.

The polls the media touts are useless, because they look at overall popular vote, and include a lot of people who probably won't vote anyway.  You have to look at it state-by-state, because that's all that matters in a presidential election.  80% of the states are too far one way or the other (Dem or GOP) for there to be any chance of the other candidate winning, so it comes down to the swing states.  As with the last election, the most imporatant ones (nost number of votes) are FLorida, Ohio, and Pennsylvania.  Depending on what happens in those states, smaller swing states like Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, and Iowa could come into play.

Here's my take:

McCain wins Florida easily.  There's no sizable black population, lots of military, lots of old folks, lots of right-leaning moderates.

Obama takes Ohio.  Large black population, terrible economy that has just gotten worse the past 8 years, razor-thin margin in '04, and the republicans there tend to be of the religious sort that won't be enthused about coming out for Mccain.

PA is a tossup, with McCain having a great shot of taking it.  McCain in PA's kind of republican...  fiscally conservative, socially liberal, war hawk, with an independant streak.  Remember, this is the state that elected Tom Ridge governor twice.


I think this is how it will go down:  Obama takes Ohio, McCain takes FLorida and PA, McCain wins.


However, Obama could win PA and McCain still win overall, IF McCain takes all the smaller swing states.  IMO, he wins Nevada (it's next to his home state, he's not a religious nut, and Nevada is big on defense), he wins New Mexico (also next to his home state, and there are no blacks there, but lots of hispanics who aren't enthused about Obama), he wins New Hampshire (they like independants, and he's always done well there), and it could come down to Iowa.

Obama is in no way going to work with the republicans.  He has absolutely no experience in doing so, the guy hasn't even submitted a bill before how in the hell is he going to become a good president?  He can speak well and has charisma sure but he is in no way the best qualified candidate.  The only reason he's getting votes is a) he's so new to this that there is nothing bad to bring up about his past decisions and b) he's black and the liberal whites want to show how 'liberal' they are by voting for a hip black man, this way they can never be called racist when they drive past the black homeless because hey they voted Obama in 08!  
Like her or loathe her Hillary has actually worked with republicans before, she's had to actually compromise and understands what it takes to get things done, and it's more than a flashy "change" slogan.

p.s. to the dunce who said Clinton (Bill) had no experience he was Arkansas governor for a lot longer than Obama has been in anything, previous to US senate he was a senator for the Illinois senate.  Wow! Big time power broking going on there!

I think this is how it will go down:  Obama takes Ohio, McCain takes FLorida and PA, McCain wins.


However, Obama could win PA and McCain still win overall, IF McCain takes all the smaller swing states.  IMO, he wins Nevada (it's next to his home state, he's not a religious nut, and Nevada is big on defense), he wins New Mexico (also next to his home state, and there are no blacks there, but lots of hispanics who aren't enthused about Obama), he wins New Hampshire (they like independants, and he's always done well there), and it could come down to Iowa.

By percentage, Florida has more blacks than Ohio.  ::)

Lots of "old folks" is true, but many of them are well-educated, a demographic that is just as likely to vote for Obama as anyone else.  Bush had to "steal" Florida his first time around, and who's to say a charismatic Democrat couldn't win it this time around....a slight margin is all that's needed. And you can be sure that the black vote will be counted this time. Also, many more registered Dems than Republicans, and about 20% of reg voters are indep. Indeps have favored democrats this time around.

Pennsylvania went for Kerry..........not overwhelmingly, it's true.....but I don't recall it being particularly close either.  So, if a wooden democrat can carry PA, why not a charismatic Democrat? 

Nevada has a higher no. of registered democrats, and a good portion of the population is independent (16% of reg voters) this go around.  Again, why not a democrat?

By percentage, Florida has more blacks than Ohio.  ::)


But a sizeable percentage of Florida's "blacks" are Carribean islanders down in Dade and Broward counties, not standard "African Americans".  They don't act like African-Ameicans, and they don't vote like African Americans.  A Black/Hispanic Cuban gets counted as "black" on the census, but he's more likely to vote Republican than not.

Bush (a standard religious-right doofus) is not the kind of Republican Pennsylvanians warm to.  McCain, on the other hand, is.  Also, Obama's race could work against him in PA...  a lot of the Dem base in western PA are white blue-collar union workers, not liberal elites.

Yes, I believe that whites will vote for Mr. Obama.  They are turning out in droves.  Mr. Obama is a cunning man in that he insures that race is not a platform he's running on.  If he did he wouldn't have gotten as far as he has.  He lets the media talk about his race.  When is comes to race and Mr. Obama has to focus on hispanic voters.  

There will be people that vote for him because he's black and people that won't vote for him because he's black.

I think when on November 4th, people when it's (hopefully) Mr. Obama and Mr. McCain, the people will vote for change.  Mr. McCain is too close to Mr. Bush and his policies the country no longer wants this.

If Mr. Obama wins it doesn't mean anything will change over night.  He or whoever takes Mr. Bush's place has a full plate, Iraq, Iran, U.S. Economy etc...

Experience is overated when it comes to the president.  You have so many people around you it's hard to fuck up...............Unless your name is George W. Bush ;)

You're reaching, goat. Maybe in S. Florida you have a bunch of Haitians.  Unless you can show me otherwise, I believe Cubans would identify as Hispanic, regardless of color.

And where are you getting all your black REPUBLICAN hispanics from?

On the census, "hispanic" is a seperate designation from race.  WHen it asks your race, "hispanic" in not a choice...  you get "white", "black", "asian", "pacific islander", and maybe one more.  Then, "are you hispanic/latino" is a seperate question.  Therefore, you have "white hispanics" and "black hispanics", but not just "hispanics".

Cubans generally vote Republican (anti-castro, and all that  ::)), and many of them are technically "black".

Lots of "old folks" is true, but many of them are well-educated, a demographic that is just as likely to vote for Obama as anyone else.  Bush had to "steal" Florida his first time around, and who's to say a charismatic Democrat couldn't win it this time around....a slight margin is all that's needed. And you can be sure that the black vote will be counted this time. Also, many more registered Dems than Republicans, and about 20% of reg voters are indep. Indeps have favored democrats this time around.

Pennsylvania went for Kerry..........not overwhelmingly, it's true.....but I don't recall it being particularly close either.  So, if a wooden democrat can carry PA, why not a charismatic Democrat? 

Nevada has a higher no. of registered democrats, and a good portion of the population is independent (16% of reg voters) this go around.  Again, why not a democrat? 

Because there are alot of racists who will come out of the woodwork to vote against him. You have to remember, these are democrats voting for him. The republicans will bring up the race issue and probably the muslim thing will be brought up again.  The general election will be a whole different ballgame. It will get ugly.   Kerry carried Pa. but there are alot of pickup driving, tobacco chewing rednecks there. Good luck with those people.

If Obama wins, anything he does will make him look like a Rhodes Scholar compared to the dullard we've had in The White House for the last 8 years.
He'll come up smelling like roses no matter how he fucks up. Nothing better than following a weak opening act. ;D


Couldn't have said it better myself... I think this is the consensus of most people here in the USA and our "allies" abroad....

Close minded administration means scrutiny and ridicule from the rest of the world. The Bush administration has become the butt of most jokes said across the world.

Well, you seem to know your hispanics better than I do.  But I'm still not convinced that the state is anything less than a toss-up. 

And I know people expect droves of rednecks to come out of the woodwork, but I really don't see that happening. If it was Jesse Jackson, sure........in fact, I'd be one of them.  But I don't see it happening for Obama. 

Once we get to the general election, McCain will be contrasted with the democratic candidate (perhaps Obama)........and then the foreclosed millions, and the hundreds of thousands who know soldiers dead for some murky purpose will come into play.  Hell, I'm not in danger of foreclosure and I'm pissed at this administration's economic policies.

Given that Ron Paul isn't viable, maybe we should support Obama?

That's a horrible idea. Ron Paul isn't finished, either. He's still in the race waiting for McCain to be exposed or something like that, but the main thing is to continue raising awareness about the message of freedom. That's the campaign's priority right now.

Hmmm. Missed this the first time.  Yes, there is some truth to what you say.  But I'm optimistic, and you're a cynic.  And that's why I support Obama, and you're having to make do with McCain.  Obama's had some success with unions, and I'm hopeful that will continue.  Besides there are some signs that he is gaining more support among the blue collars. 

In any case, right now he needs to be in your neck of the woods kissing Hispanic babies.  Hope that's on his agenda.

At the time, if you voted against the war, you were a far left wacko. Obama's trying to play that hand but I have more respect for Hillary for her vote. It didn't work out well, obviously, but I have more respect for those who voted for it than against.  He would be extremely weak on national security as he would want to be the Bush alternative, hence leaving the door wide open.  Quite frankly, other than being a great speach giver, I don't see much substance.

I CHALLENGE ANYONE TO POST A LIST OF 10 REASONS WHY OBAMA IS THE BEST CANDIDATE FOR AMERICA

1. he's black so he'll ease tension between races
2. he looks good on TV
3. he's a great speaker (unlike the last asshole)
4. he's concerned with healthcare and mexicans
5. he wants to end the war in iraq (to move the troops to afganistan and pakistan? SHIT I didn't realize that! FUCK!)
6. he's a family man
7. our muslim enemies will feel better about being bombed by armies led by a half-black half-white man with muslim roots who isn't muslim himself
8. he's a proud member of the CFR
9. little experience so he must be uncorrupted
10. i'd do him
