i dont care about race

The KKK is racist, too.

Regardless, I will NOT vote for Obama. There is a good book

out in print now exposing Obamas lies.

Truthfully, I still could care less about Obama's lies, either.

John McCain is a proven leader and a proven patriot. John

McCain won't kill our already overburdened economy. John is

not a socialist, and did not grow up listening to hate speech

in the name of God. John started out fairly normal, not poor,

but not rich, and he's entitled to his current riches. John

has experience, and won't have to rely on his VP for answers.

Obama picked Biden to shore up his weaknesses. John will pick

a VP to complement his strengths.

Obama is barely older than me, and is wanting to run a country.

You Dems can compare him to Kennedy in age, but that's it.

JFK's entire family groomed him for politics, and he entered

early. Obama is just a junior senator now, with little to

no experience.

If you think it's the lesser of two evils, vote for John.

Obama BLANKED Hillary, when she was the obvious choice for

the Dems. A vote for Obama is a vote for Pelosi anyways,

and i don't think any of us like Pelosi. Can you say

"congressional vacation during a national crisis" ?

Obama is amazing. he will be way better then old fart McCain. You guys dont know what your talking about!

Obama

What concerns me about Obama is that he has associated himself with some less-than-reputable characters during his lifetime.

Recently, I was really disillusioned by Mr. Obama's confession at Saddleback college in California that as a youth he had drug and alcohol problems. His past doesn't seem worthy of a president. What else don't we know about this person?

deficit

McCain & Obama never mention the DEFICIT ! very important..No fan of Clinton but he tk over the deficit when tking office from Bush, Sr. ...he /clinton/ did a great job w/the economy ..now he's gotten selfish & he & wife have raised the taxes of all the properties they own in Harlem !..furthermore,,the Rodham bros are crooks..Tony is arrogant & Hugh/300 lbs/ has been in jail ,,,,,

Call me what you want. However, I am a white man that dose not want a black president.

mc cain vs obama

why is McCain running for Pres. when he cannot serve on a jury bec. of his age../no one 70 or older///also McCain was @ the BOTTOM of his class @ the Naval Academy while Obama was @ the TOP of his class @ Harvard ....interesting ...any comments ? ..whoever is elected ..NO celebrations in Wash. DC..too much money wasted..homeless 2 blocks from White House..give to the poor..so much poverty in this country ...& the deficit ?/our children/grandkids will be paying for it for yrs...what a mess ...

demagogery refined

Obama said in Februrary: "We are the one we have been waiting for."

This is demagogery. It shows egotism as strong as John Edwards'.

liberal sissys

Obama supporters lack morals and values. You liberals have the decency to think that gay marriages are ok? Well it's not, marriage is for a MAN and a WOMAN. McCain is against gay marriages, which shows that he has MORALS unlike you left wingers. Heck, if you think it's ok to be homosexual than sisters and brothers should be allowed to marry! YOU GUYS MAKE ME SICK. All you guys do is point your finger and whine, whine, whine. POOR YOU! Life isn't fair, the rich have every right to become richer, and you guys will be poor. THATS LIFE. I don't want to continue paying WELFARE for you guys because you multiply like rabbits and feed off of us who have a job and actually WORK HARD for our money. When are you liberals going to come to reality that it's not ok to feed off from others? Stop pouting about how life isn't fair, boo hoo.

Obama sucks...

He wants to take your Guns and your gas money away.

And don't tell anybody your not voting for him.

They'll call you racist or that your voting for Bush's third term. Lame excuses...Get A Life!

obama is racist

There should be no thinking about it, obama has to lose, or this country will really be a mess.
