I find it strange how so many people are taken in by Obama. Both candidates are not good for the country, but especially Obama. I see that you drink the Obama kool-aid.

No worries. I mean, after all, you drank the kool-aid and have fallen for the one side. There are plenty of others that have fallen for the other side and neither candidate is good for this country.

If it happens I just hope that Biden is wrong on his prediction.

Polls are all pointing in the direction of Barack Obama....we are about ready to elect an inexperienced, socialist leaning man with a questionable past to become leader of the free world..Commander-in-chief of the most powerful military..............and we are about to turn our back on a true American Hero.
That's exactly what they want you to believe. They want to depress you, they want you to stay home, they want you to think it is inevitable.

It's not. They do this every election, although not to this degree. They are fully invested in Obama getting in the WH.

He has all the media behind him, he has out-spent McCain 4-1 and will continue to do so, he has had the lucky break (for him) of the economic crisis, which the media will continue to play up. They know it only benefits Obama.

Ignore the national polls; they go from 1 to 14. This morning the avg was 5, now it is 7, thanks to the Pew poll, an outlier and NBC, ABC polls (which was a re-poll) to bump the avg up to 7. Other polls have him tanking, like the Battleground poll (which I'm sure tomorrow will change to reflect the new "mood" of the media, ie a landslide.), Rasmussen is 4, HL, Ipso, CNN - all have dropped.

The point; The national polls are all over the place. Even if you do follow those, keep in mind that they over-sample democrats - anywhere from 3 to 16% and they constantly play with those numbers to get the desired result.

Also keep in mind, Obama limped across the finish line in the primaries - he only won due to the Super Delegates. He could not close the deal in the big states, OH, PA, IN, ,TX,WV.

Look at the state polls, granted they are leaning to Obama, but given the amount of money he has spent and the negative ads he has run, it is not surprising. EVERYTHING favors a democrat this year, but still it is close. A lot of people realize just how dangerous he would be as a president, more should know or are ignoring it, thanks to his accomplices in the MSM.

Just remember, they want you to be depressed, to feel hopeless, to feel that it really doesn't matter if you vote or not.

Don't let them control you.

How is he a hero? He was a POW who got shot down and confessed classified information when imprisoned. That makes him a hero?

Many of those troops want to come home, and think that staying there is what "disgraces" them and their country.
