I don't exactly agree with you guys saying that Democrats and the world going crazy over Obama is so bad. Maybe you should start looking at his heart and his intentions and not what you visually see. I believe he has good intentions and a good heart and I think he will turn America around and when other places in the world are "going crazy" about him like they are... maybe that should say something you you guys! Hm... just saying......

Media-wise, this campaign has no semblance of being a fair fight. The biased coverage reminds me of a boxing referee, on a knockdown, counting to ten by twos. Newspaper editorial staff/national desk chiefs, television network news bosses and talk show hosts simply cannot contain themselves in their less than favorable coverage and comments regarding McCain and Palin. And so it comes as no surprise to anyone objectively following this campaign that the Republicans are bein examined with an electron microscope while the Obama-Biden ticket is observed on the wrong end of binoculars. This makes my blood boil, but you should know that the last time it reached 212 degrees Farenheit during a political event, media bias was not the cause. Rather, it was the hypocrisy of the likes of Bob Livingston, Newt, Henry Hyde and others going after Bill Clinton ten years ago.

The media's continual bias in favor of Obama is not only disgusing, it's against everything that America,

a Free Press, and Freedom of Speech stands for. To suggest that there is no media bias in favor of Obama not only robs Americans of the truth, it insults the intelligence of the American people.

TALK IS CHEAP ... CHECK OBAMA'S RECORD !!!

A candidate's track record, and associations are always a legitimate issue when running for President. Let's take a look at the qualifications, judgement, and experience of Obama, who is running for President. Obama had 25 years to fulfill the potential he displayed as a rising start at Harvard Law School ... and, how did he live up to that potential? ... He chose to align himself with anti-American racist, Jeremiah Wright for TWENTY YEARS ... along with Ferrahkan, Rezko, Ayers, and others. As a community organizer, he registered thousands of voters in Chicago ... then, when he ran for the state legislature, he took away their votes, by disqualifying his opponent (a black woman) on a technicality. As a U.S. Senator, he voted present 160 times ... he never called a meeting on the Afghanistan committee he chaired (although he NOW says we must shift all our military from Iraq to Afghanistan). He claimed Foreign Policy experience from a 9 day whirlwind photo op to 6 countries. And, he spent almost half of his tenure neglecting his responsibilities as a U.S. Senator, so he could run for President. Senator McCain served America honorably for 22 years in the military. He proved his love for America, as well as his honor, integrity and character, by refusing early release as a P.O.W., even while being tortured. He served America as a 'contributing' U.S. Senator, working across the aisle, for 20 years. If Obama's Twentyfive year track record shows he lacks judgement, and can't be trusted, who cares what he says about Health Care and the Economy! What Obama never learned is Character. He simply can't be trusted ... ask Jeremiah Wright, a friend of 20 years, who Obama betrayed for personal ambition ... and, you Obama supporters really think he won't betray you If he gets elected??? If he gets elected, you Obama supporters will be facing a HUGE disillusionment !!!

I think the media has been fawning over Sarah Palin. Talk about gushing. She's so popular; she's so sexy, she's a "Maverick". She's so overrated it's sickening. And it seems to be OK to keep her away from the media and control everything. The media is NOT favoring Obama

Dear Lindsey of IN:

That's ironic--Perhaps you'd better consult a spelling dictionary?
