Since an article I read from CNN News that Obama used unsavory tacticts on all previous political campaigns in Illinois and also wahington...This article was put out by the followers of Hillary Clinton...This tells me that a larrge percentage of these votes will swing toward McCain and not Obama

In response to the last to comments what planet are you guys from, sarah palin is no comparison to senator clinton there views are as different than night and day. Also more than alot of clinton supporters are not going to stay at home and will not be voting for McCain.

So glad to see I believe some of the leaders of N.O.W. Rothschild campaining for Sarah Palin. This is a moment to see feminism at its best. This election is not about ticket #1. This is ticket #2. We have Sarah that is not afraid of the elite media. She knows her Lord is able to take care of her. It is time for change. Not radical feminism, but a feminism that honors our Lord. Many women do not realize they are not happy with this cause. It leaves them empty. Ladies stepping up to the plate in your organization are supporting Sarah Palin. She is not going to spread the wealth. She is not taking your rights away. She is to be admired for women if you will give her a chance. I believe the name is Rothschild has come out to endorse Sarah. There has also been another big name to endorse Sarah. Do yourself a favor, do not stay home for elections. Let America know that Sarah is a Godly choice. Dont take my word for it, look up some of the feminist leaders that are campaining for Sarah. And say a prayer to the God of the universe that still exsists. Love Ohio Marilyn

I do not beliece that all the 18 Million supporters of Clinton are all women.

Gov. Palin would attract a percentage of the men and women who supported Hillary.

People should not be suprised that many conservatives who voted for Clinton could have all moved to McCain-Palin.

Women who are not too far to the left would also move.

No one should expects "welfare-parasites" to like Palin.

Why talk of ALL when ne one ever expects ALL.

Barbara Streissand stated "McCain insulted women's intelligence when he put Palin on the ticket. Does he really think women are stupid?"

My question is: Does McCain think Americans are stupid?

John McCain was the biggest supporter of deregulation. Let big businees do their thing. Leave them alone. Forget all the red tape and let them do business"

And, now that we are trillions of dollars in debt, he wants to be a part of the rescue team.

Isn't that sort of like the pyromaniac who starts a fire, gets their thrills from watching it go out of control, then rushing in to gain favor by putting the fire out.

John McCain brags about the "surge" as though it ended the war. This war never should have been started and it should be ended ASAP

Does John McCain really think Americans are stupid?

Well, I'm not sure what he thinks but it does concern me that he issued 3000 pages of medical documentation that said he was in tip top shape. Then two weeks later he showed us a tax return that showed that he was getting a $86,000.00 disability payment because he was declared 100% disabled by the US government.

Now, I can't say whether or not John McCain thinks Americans are crazy but anybody who would vote for him after reading this has to have something missing upstairs

Yes some Clinton supporters are "coming around" to Obama, but it should also be observed that some disloyal democrats that defect to Mccain would say that they "came around" to the candidate they think is best.The blood of party loyalty isn't so thick. For me the pro-con evaluation scale I use has tipped to the republican camp.The republicans have convinced me to "come around"

I am a registerd voter and I am voting for HILLARY CLINTON as a write in canidate. Iam 69 yrs old and She is the best canidate.

You can assume all you want but the facts are Obama is not going to win. Many responders are afraid to say how they really feel as they would be considered racist. Which is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard of. Is a black person racist if they don't vote for McCain. I am sick of these double standards. Voters will vote their conscience when they are in that booth all alone. So Obama doesn't have a chance. Thank GOD!

You cannot "safely assume" that Clinton supporters who were not upset that he didn't pick her as VP because their was a serious proportion of them who didn't want her to be his Second Fiddle. I could go into a number of reasons why, including the "bridesmaid" to the mediocre man and the Hillary 2012 movement, but there you have it--your assumption is not a safe one.

THANK YOU SENATOR MCCAIN for keeping this lady out of the hands of the "LOW LIFE MEDIA" reach. WHO CARES WHAT THE MEDIA THINKS, LIKE SARAH SAID, "SHE WAS GOING TO WASH D.C. TO SERVE THE PEOPLE" and not the MEDIA......AFTER WHAT THE PRESS DID TO HILLARY, THANK YOU.

After the PIT BULLs that were sent to Alaska, to dig, lie, and question the natives. couldn't find a thing..WOW, stump the media.

I am a Clinton supporter that jumped ship. Can't trust a BLACK MAN, never knew one to tell the TRUTH, INCLUDING OBAMA. HE LIED ABOUT HELPING TO RETIRE SENATOR CLINTON'S DEBIT...LIED. REMEMBER O.J. SIMPSON, HE LIED, BARRY BOND, LIED, FRANKLIN RAINES, LIED, KILPATRICK, LIED, RANKEL, LIED, MIKE TYSON, MICHAEL JACKSON, LIED, JIM JOHNSON, LIED, BILL AYERS & WIFE, TERRORIST, TONY REZKO & PARTNER DANIEL MAHRU, MAYOR DAILY, STATED Obama's MARIJUANA & COCAINE SHOULD NOT BE A PROBLEM IF HE RUNS FOR PRESIDENT. WOW. DRUG USER IN THE WHITE HOUSE.....AND THE LIST GOES ON OF OBAMA'S FRIENDS.

OBAMA WINS, THE MUSLIMS WILL HAVE A PLACE AT THE TABLE.

The PRESS has been notable lax about pursing the matter between OB & Ayers. AYERS was pictured in a 2001 article for a Chicago Magazine, stomping on an American flag & told N.Y. Times (before 9/11) "that the notion of the U.S.as a just & fair & decent place "makes me want to puke". Shortly after that, OB launched his political career at Ayres home. OB became Chairmanship of Chicago Annenberg Board, received substantial $$$, for an education project, unable to account for $$, SOUNDS LIKE A CONFLICT OF INTEREST. MEDIA, WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO PURSUE THIS MATTERS? THE ANNENBERG OFFICE WILL ONLY RELEASE DOCUMENTS AFTER THE ELECTION.....
