    Everybody claims CHANGE. It's nothing new and hardly something created by the Obama camp.

    HOPE is something you don't hear everyday from a candidate. I'm curious what he means by HOPE. HOPE for who? HOPE for what?

    This once again sounds like it's coming from people who feel they are victims. People who are victims due in NO part to their own actions, or lack thereof, but as a result of some type of bias or discrimination.

    What do people like that think they're going to get from Obama? They're not looking for opportunities...they're looking for a handout. For some reason they feel that they're owed or deserve more even without trying or earning anything.

    These will be the most vocal supporters of Obama. Why?...because they know their vote will be rewarded "bought". Will it help them out of their current predicament?...NO

    Will McCain be a good choice?...NO but this will be another lesser of two evils vote.

    Is McCain another Bush?...not even close but Obama's camp needs to try to make people believe he is and ABC, CBS, NBC, and CNN are doing everything possible to assist this effort.

    I'm looking forward to 2012. Maybe by then we'll have a decent choice for President. If McCain wins...Bush's post-presidency rating may increase. If Obama wins, Jimmy Carter may move up from being the worst President of all-time. :hihi:

    Over half the poeple in the country are going to vote for Obama, chief. You really can't paint them all with your ridiculous stereotype.

    The republicans have proven that they are a recipe for disaster. An awful lot of wealthy, hard-working, patriotic Americans who aren't victims of anything nor looking for a handout are going to vote for Obama because McCain is more of the same republican mismanagement. He'll just see to it that corporations like Exxon that have posted the biggest profits in human history still receve $billions in goverment subsidies.

    Clinton reformed public welfare. Now it's time for democrats to reform corporate welfare. The republicans were given two chances with control of the White House and The Hill and they blew it. They ain't going to get a third and they don't deserve it.

    Over half the people in this country won't even be voting this election. Maybe over half the people who actually vote will vote for Obama but please don't use the liberal-spin semantics. :hihi:

    Regarding your hatred for Republicans, you may want to check that Democrat-led Congress approval rating. Nancy Pelosi is just setting the world on fire. :grin: CHANGE! HOPE! :huh:

    Keep repeating that to yourself. We're 90 days away and B. Hussein Obama is on his way to being a has been. As the election nears, cooler and saner minds will prevail. Your animosity toward the rich notwithstanding, people do not want a Socialist running the country.

    I don't hate republicans, I have voted for them many times, including the last governors race. When they offer something better, I vote republican. Right now they are offering nothing I want to buy.

    It's just as low as the Republican Congress' rating was and they didn't have to get their bills vetoed by a lame duck President with the lowest ratings ever.
