vote fraud

If McCain wins, it will be due to vote fraud. They have already sent out fliers telling democrats that because of the long poll lines Republicans will vote Tuesday and Democrats will vote Wednesday. They have also sent out fliers in black neighborhoods telling voters that there will be armed police at the polling stations and that if they have unpaid parking tickets or any other small infractions they can be arrested at the polling station. Seriously!!! We have enough proof that the Republican party is capapble of stealing the vote. Overwhelm them!! They cannot do it everywhere at the same time. Overwhelm them! Get out and vote on Tuesday!!!!

LIberals and Conservatives.

The difference between exit polls and the actual results can be traced back to the type of people voting for each canidate. People voting for Obama(Liberals) will be more open to voice their opinion after leaving the the voting booth while the McCain supporters (Conservatives) tend to keep their vote as their own business, at least more than Democrats would.

Liberal nonsense

WOW it is absolultely amazing to me how liberal democrats are always on the wrong side of eveything. Name one thing that you represent that is good, moral and correct. Your position on taxes, no, abortion, ahhh no, government run anything, absolultely no.etc etc. War, no, It is sometimes necessary in the defense of freedom. anti-war is an oxymoronic phrase. What is the alternative. Sitting by and allowing people that want you dead, for nothing than your prosperity, to run over you without a fight. I haven't met a liberal yet that would't go to war with us conservatives, but a jihadist, hell no. So your anti-war stance only applies to issues you deem right.

PLAIN STUPID

THE ONLY PARTY THAT HAS CHEATED CONSISTANTLY IS THE DEMORATS!

ACORN IS THE ONLY THING WE NEED SAY....NON PARTISAN MY ASS!

No Less Than Media Fraud

Most of The Mainstream Media in the U.S. is nothing but a propaganda machine. CBS, ABC, NBC, MSNBC are a laughingstock. They’re ideological prostitutes. Their reporting is nothing more than a promotional ad for their cherished “Weltanschauung”

“Obama Marxist-Islamic-Socialism”.

The L.A. Times refuses to release a video when Obama attended an anti-Israel event where he praises anti-Israel Professor Rashid Khalidi who defends terrorism. Obama was actually a board member of the Chicago - ultra-lliberal Woods Fund along with Ayers which gave large sums of money to Khalidi’s anti-Israel Arab American Action network.

One speaker at this event, compared "Zionist settlers on the West Bank" to Osama bin Laden.

Khalidi has called Israel an "apartheid system in creation" and a destructive "racist" state. He has multiple times expressed support for Palestinian terror, calling suicide bombings a response to "Israeli aggression."

Why won’t the L.A. Times release the video?

Why isn’t this front page news on NBC, CBS, ABC?

What’s the problem? What are they trying to hide from the American people?

Obama’s birth certificate is sealed by Hawaii’s Governor. Why won’t they release it?

Obama's Kenyan grandmother has reportedly alleged she witnessed Obama's birth at the Coast Provincial Hospital in Mombasa, Kenya.

Every Presidential candidate must verify that they were born in the U.S.

What’s the problem? What are they trying to hide from the American people?

Why isn’t this front page news on NBC, CBS, ABC?

Obama said in a radio interview on Chicago’s WBEZ FM, that the U.S. has suffered from a fundamentally flawed Constitution that does not mandate or allow for redistribution of wealth.

This Socialist-Marxist Belief is right out of The Communist Manifesto.

Yes, the heart and soul of Obama’s Politics is criticism and disdain for The U.S. Constitution because it contradicts His Marxist beliefs.

Why isn’t this front page news on NBC, CBS, ABC?

Obama supporters hanging Palin in effigy? And not one word from Obama condemning this as obscene? Reminds one of Mussolini's Fascism in Italy.

Yes the media has the right to debate the issues. But the debate must be based on “the facts”. Officer Friday on the old tv show, “Dragnet”, always said. “Just the facts..”

Freedom of the Press is a powerful safeguard The Founding Fathers put in the U.S. Constitution to protect “Liberty” against virulent extremes like “fascism”, or “socialism”.

We can see how these swept over the entire continent of Europe like wildfire, with Mussolini in Italy, Hitler in Germany, Lenin and Stalin in Russia.

But most news anchors and journalists today care only about keeping their job. Their open, blatant, contempt for the precious right called “Liberty - the power to choose” is a national disgrace. Americans don’t trust the media anymore. And they will not support a President who not only won’t defend the U.S. Constitution, but has open contempt for it.

Obama is nothing but an “Eloquent, Slick, Avant-Garde, Marxist, Used Car Salesman”.

Of course you would say be wary of the polls showing an Obama win.... you work for Fox news - The same channel that called the Florida for Bush in 2000 - Not the most neutral reporting that is out there - Yea I don't really trust your judgment!

OBAMA - BIDEN 2008!!!

McLaughlin Group

So, Mr. Barone, why did you lose your place among the regulars on the McLaughlin Group? My sources tell me that John McLaughlin didn't want you on the program after you called the Clintons "trash". It was one thing when you jumped on the bandwagon with the accusers who falsely claimed that the White House was looted following Al Gore's loss in 2000, but personally slandering the President and First Lady was outrageous and (apparently) unforgivable. After all these years one would think John would invite you back on his program; however, I never miss it, and I've never once seen you there since you made those very uncharitable and un-Christian statements. Perhaps it's because you were never willing to apologize to Hillary or Bill Clinton

The Mjority of Polls are biased to Obama!!

I don't look at any of them anymore. like the media (who owns most of the polls) They all lie!!

Lisa

Dems are worried about voter fraud in Ohio, Florida, and PA? It never ceases to amaze me how the greatest majority of these ACORN "registered" voters are registered Democrat but you have to worry about Republicans stealing the election? That is laughable!

Republicans might have something up their sleeve for sure. Trying to ensure against all odds that this election is one person=one vote.

WE can't help it if Florida voters in the 2000 election in Florida were not smart enough to read a ballot.
