Obama won because the Republicans did not rig enough voting places like in 2000 and 2004. Even a three million vote edge didn't work this time. Couldn't happen to a more deserving bunch of cheats.

I don't think Republicans have any right to criticize the intelligence of Democrats. You've been the party of the uneducated masses for quite awhile now. Good for Obama that he managed to pull even some of the mentally challenged away from the Republicans. Pretty amazing considering these people are willing to believe anything they hear on the TeeVee.

The real Detroit looks like it was ground zero in a nuclear exchange that left partially burnt windowless section eight homes in shambles and devoid of all copper plumbing and aluminum siding for miles and miles in every direction with horribly mutated and disfigured gangs of ineducable, unemployable now-grown crack-babies to roam the trash strewn streets ever in search of new victims.
detroit is a hell-hole. it's easy to forget it used to be one of America's greatest cities

Yeah right. We see from the video that these idiots don't even know the basics about the election - and they voted for Obama!

There are just as many ignorant Democrats as there are Republicans. Let's see, a woman who said Obama is an Arab, old man in Florida who made a sign "Obama Half-Breed Muslin" or even that dumb Tito the Builder who showed up at a rally with his full construction uniform on. Some of the strategies the McCain campaign has utilized are designed for people who have very low IQ's. Look at Tito the Builder, I guess, he was building some homes and decided to stop by the rally, typical gimmick for the ignorant.

You have nothing to refute the video showing these people who voted for Obama, so you throw any insult you can.

Actually, you have nothing to refute Obama's resounding victory, so you make up and/or pass along stupid stuff.

Look at the video in its correct context. It's part of, or a promotion for, a new documentary by John Ziegler.

This is John Ziegler: John Ziegler Biography

This is John Ziegler: Host - The Atlantic (April 2005)

Actually he's all over the intertubes: www.therealkfi.com - The Real KFI (modern-day updates at page 4)

If you agree with his point of view, fine. If you see him in a bigger scope you can see his motivations for things like this documentary.
