Um, 1 in 10 is 10%, not 90%. I have a friend there in Europe who is under the impression O. is winning. I told him about the media hype, the personality cult, the crooked primaries, etc. My friend lives in Hungary. Guess what. Mr. Soros has a protege there, Viktor Orban, who is a noted flipflopper, has a brainwashed entourage, and apparently will be leading the government next year. Meanwhile their money scene is also going from fair to worse. Makes you wonder, how many more little “acorns” there are out there?

as a (former) democrat, even i dont want to see one party rule. a democratic congress, senate and executive branch would be disastorous for the country. we need some balance of power in govt. so thesres no need to worry about a mccain presidency as much as an obama presidency.

how much did obama spend on his fake greek columns? how much do you think michelle o is spending on her clothes with the half a billion dollars her husband “raised”(even tho she looks like she shops at k-mart?) how much did he spend painting his fake logo over the flag on his plane or on his fake presidential seal, or his trip to europe,or his hiawii vacation? now he wants to charge journalists to attend his victory party??? they sure know how to spend other peoples money dont they?

Hillary or Bust says: “California is not just black and white. Latinos far outnumber blacks and don’t forget Asians. When I was at the Sarah Palin rally here, there were tons of Latinos and Asians there. They could potentially tip California to McCain.”

I am a Californian too, and what you say is spot-on.

does anyone know that the candidates get to keep whatever is left over from their campaigns? looks like the obamas will go home very rich. think they’ll share it with those less fortunate?

I’m voting for McCain in California also, first time to vote for Republican. Maybe we have a upset in the making!!

That AP-GfK poll also overweighed the ’social conservative’ factor by around 2x what is considered standard, with 44% of respondents identifying as evangelicals or born again Christians. Maybe all those voters are coming out for Palin this cycle, but the more plan Bs and Cs McCain has the better.

I am prochoice. But as a nurse the idea that someone will not give care to child that has air in its lungs is a bit much for me. I have always supported womens right to do what they want with a fetus that needs them for life, but once that baby shows it is trying to breath, that is where, there rights end and the infant’s begin.

I read that this morning. Goodness, next to McCain winning, if Murtha loses I will be on cloud 9. What a slap in the face it would be to Pelosi and her gang:-)

I won’t forget the last 10 months. Even 4 years from now. Doesn’t matter how accurate they are the last week.

Instead, I think we should vet Couric and Gibson.

First, lets check their tax status, then their driving histories, college records, memberships, divorce records, look for swimsuit pics, see how much they spend on their wardrobes, etc…

What has O’blahblah ever done for latinos? Zip! Most latinos I know have strong family values and pay attention to issues that affect them. I think they’d spot a snake oil salesman a mile away.

I think it will be a landslide for McCain & I think California is going red.

Does anyone know why Obama would pay out over 21 Million for polling? Who is he paying and for what?
