Not exactly representative of the population on the whole. If the Jewish vote in New York was coming down that way, Obama will be finished by 7pm EDT on election night.

If the LA Times releases that tape maybe that will happen.

True, but good news nonetheless.

Perhaps it’s time for a massive “Remember 9-11” campaign push accompanied by any relevant Obama quotes. His overseas supporters were shown rejoicing back then.

Not sure but, I've been so sick and tired lately of seeing noobs post dismal news, I figured this would counteract a little of it.

I noticed the Jerusalem Post's story on this was headlined "Orthodox Oversampled in US Exit Poll."

A startling 76 percent of those polled said that they had voted for John McCain. This contrasts sharply with pre-election polls of American Jews in the U.S., which indicate a strong preference for Obama.

The exit poll findings of American voters in Israel are all the more surprising because less than one in four were registered Republicans, and 46% of registered Democrats living in Israel said they had crossed party lines to vote McCain. By contrast, the Republican crossover to Obama was minimal – just 2%.

The votes are significant as almost half of the 42,000 registered U.S. voters living in Israel come from key swing states including Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania.

Obama and ACORN are shocked!


LET EVERY ONE OF OUR VOTES COUNT...AS MANY TIMES AS POSSIBLE

Vote early...Vote often...Vote if your dead...Vote from Jail...Vote after you get out of Jail (particularly if you are a felon)...Vote if you’re not a citizen (just get a driver’s license)...Vote as an out of state Student and a Resident of your home state too...Vote with your fingers...Vote with your toes...Vote with your elbows and Vote with your nose.

Obama makes RACIST jokes on THE DAILY SHOW

http://www.breitbart.tv/?p=208883

I dont give a DAMN what anyone else thinks, these comments that his WHITE HALF WONT KNOW WHAT TO DO IN THE VOTING BOOTH is a RACIST JOKE, a CLEARLY RACIST COMMENT that if ANY white Republican said in any form would be murdered on the street by the first offended person he saw.

This is RACIST, OFFENSIVE, and just more icing on the cake of his racism (20 YEARS IN WRIGHT’S CHURCH)

Thanks! You’re right, we do need to see good news right now. When this is over I’m taking a media vacation, no matter what happens.

Early voting in Florida shows that younger voters have not materialized. By contrast, the voting bloc that has performed as usual is younger voters. In college towns and along the critical Interstate 4 corridor, the Obama campaign has focused relentlessly on this group.

For the first time, voters younger than 35 slightly outnumber voters 65 and older — each group makes up about 24 percent of the total electorate — and younger voters have shifted heavily toward the Democratic Party during the past four years.

But as yet — in either Central Florida or the state as a whole — a surge of younger voters hasn’t materialized.

Though a bit more than 10 percent of all voters are younger than 25, fewer than 6 percent of early voters fit that category. Similarly, voters 25 to 34 years old are 14.4 percent of the electorate — but just 9.5 percent of those who voted early.

That's my favorite part!

I trust exit polls as far as I can throw President Kerry.

Me too but the intention of the post is to give the n00b trolls a taste of their own medicine.
