Also I would like to congratulate the democrats for winning and offer a handshake. Gosh I can't stand saying this but I have to be sincere and honest.
Hold on big guy, until you know is singing, it's not over....

Great for you to recognize and acknowledge the inevitable. If you're smart, you will go out and vote for the superior candidate in Obama and be on the right side of this historical moment. He beat a heavily favored Hillary and McCain for a reason.

The race IS indeed over despite claims by the conservative desperados here. There will be no positive moments for the GOP in 2012 either.
People like you are why some are so turned off by Obama and his cult like followers. Why would someone who is supporting McCain have to reassess their ideology and change it? Why do you think you are the only one that has the right ideology? There is more than just your view and your ideology is not the only one that could possibly be right. How pretentious are you?

I am an American and will always be proud of the country I live in and the country that gave me the opportunity to get to where I am today. If Obama does win, I will still be proud of the country I live in. However, I will be ashamed of my President and embarassed by him and the stupid Americans who elected him our leader. He will be the president of the country I live in, but will not be my leader and I will show him no respect or honor, but rather treat him as the disgrace that he is.

I wish you didn't think he was a disgrace.

He's not perfect and I'd never say he was. I just wish you'd give him a chance to prove himself before you condemn him

Hell, I even was behind Bush after 9-11.

Then he went into Iraq.

I base my "disgrace" term on what I know about him and what I believe to be true. You do not have to agree with me. You are entitled to your opinion of him and I respect that.

I understand you would feel this way because that is what I felt when Bush was elected twice. I guess it's time for you Republicans to feel what we felt.

Thank you for understanding how I feel. However, it is not over until it is over. Polls have been wrong before. We will see.

Please say this is an early April Fools joke?

Seriously, giving up now? And the polls are SO close... WOW, this is another problem with America, they give up too fast. STOP WATCHING CNN, sir. Follow your heart and don't give up faith just because it seems like the popular vote is against him, there is a lot of bias against McCain right now, but the truth is slowly leaking out.

But seriously, don't give up. Don't listen to liberal media either, who airs stories where 70% are negative towards McCain -_-*

You have to remember that Republicans tend the be the silent party, most of which don't express their opinions on the candidates, for fear of being bashed by the overly opinionated Democrats (seen it happen way to often). Little do they know there a few out there like me who are well rehearsed on their information of the candidates and can throw an argument back at them

It's not popular to do the right thing.
